The Crimson yesterday filed a formal protest with the University charging that Nadav Safran, director of Harvard's Center for Middle Eastern Studies, threatened and abused a Crimson editor.
Safran reportedly told Executive Editor Christopher J. Georges '86 three times Thursday night, "I will kick your butt." Georges was investigating Safran's handling of a total of about $150,000 in grants from the CIA.
A. Michael Spence, dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, yesterday acknowledged the complaint and said he would issue a response to The Crimson.
Safran refused comment last night.
Crimson President Jeffrey A. Zucker '86 refused comment yesterday.
