Covering the business of education and training

A group of Harvard College alumni from 1967 want more protests at the school.

They wrote to the school asking why the "widespread apathy and political indifference of the student body at Harvard College." 

The group said that is was shocked at the lack of campus protests against the Iraqi war.

Harvard is NOT recruiting enough politically active students they say.

An editorial in the Harvard Crimson responded -

Harvard students today engage in policy discussions on endemic social problems, operate a homeless shelter, and dedicate entire years to service abroad in the poorest parts of the world—all without the encouragement of their deans and professors or the lure of a desk at Goldman Sachs. To call this an inferior mode of social participation to the occupation of a building seems blinkered and unreasonable. The actions of current students are just different responses to a very different world. 

Class of '67, it's your turn.
