8 Takeaways From Harvard’s Task Force Reports
Joseph F. Hudnut, Dean of the Faculty of Design, and Arthur B. Lamb, Erying Professor of Chemistry and Dean of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, announced yesterday that they would be very favorably inclined toward a graduate housing plan.
"Houses for graduate students," Dean Hudnut said, "similar to those for undergraduate students should be provided if such a plan is feasible, considering the present resources of the University."
