HUPD Chief Says Harvard Yard Encampment is Peaceful, Defends Students’ Right to Protest
More than fifty delegates from fifteen NATO countries arrived by motorcade yesterday afternoon for lunch in the Houses and a tour of the University. Their tour was one of the activities of the Fourth Annual Meeting of the Atlantic Treaty Assembly, being held in Boston this week.
The group was welcomed to Harvard by Edward Reynolds '15, Executive Vice-President, at University Hall. They were impressed by the size of Harvard, and were curious about the Harvard-Yale rivalry. The visitors were amused at the John Harvard statue, because of its erroneous date, and the fact that it is actually a statue of an unidentified undergraduate.
After a tour of the classrooms and libraries in the Yard, the delegates, sponsored by the Boston Regional Conference on Nato Affairs, left to see the computing machines at MIT.
Staying tonight with private families in the Cambridge and Boston area, the delegates will journey to Newport tomorrow to witness the America's Cup race.
