8 Takeaways From Harvard’s Task Force Reports
A splintered stained-glass window, dedicated to the memory of the founder of Harvard University, was pieced together in New York City and rushed to London's Southwark Cathedral in time for its unveiling last Saturday.
The window, smashed by a German bomb in 1941, was placed in the chapel where John Harvard was baptized.
