8 Takeaways From Harvard’s Task Force Reports
To the Editors of the CRIMSON:
In the CRIMSON of Friday, November 14, you printed two pictures of a girl meant for 3-D viewing. Now in the first place, our copy of the paper did not have the 3-D glasses that were needed to see the 3-D effect. In fact not a single girl in our dorm had the required glasses in her paper, whereas we know of boys in Eliot, Winthrop, and Adams who had their 3-D glasses. This leads us to suspect that you had a shortage of glasses, and simply decided to give them to Harvard and not Radcliffe. We protest this male chauvinism.
But the CRIMSON went further than showing a lack of chivalry. We carefully followed your instructions for seeing the 3-D effect by crossing our eyes.
But all we got were headaches and sore eyes from trying; none of us could do it. A girl in our dorm stood on tippy-toe and crossed her eyes so hard that she fell over on a table and badly bruised herself. It's just lucky she didn't break a bone.
We think that this whole 3-D business was just a practical joke and a poor one at that. Such a stunt could have seriously injured someone; we feel that you owe the whole University an apology. Faiga Brussell '67 Ellen Gallant '66 Inray Nagel '66
