8 Takeaways From Harvard’s Task Force Reports
At 11 p.m. Tuesday in the Yard the drums began a wild, pagan beat, with monkeys chattering, birds chirping, leopards roaring.
From their huts and hovels the freshmen converged outside and began their chant, "We want Tarzan; we want Tarzan...." Then, the unmistakable cry--"Ahh-ahh-ahh:"
Yes, fans, Tarzan is alive and well and resides somewhere in the freshman dorms. About twice a week he performs his cry, while a recording of jungle noises blares from Mower. Hall.
