The Aswell Letter

THE MAIL

To the Editor of the CRIMSON!

I have read Mr. Aswell's letter about the framing of the House Plan by the Committee of which he was chairman in 1926; and my recollection agrees entirely with his so far as my knowledge extends, for I knew nothing of the internal working of the Committee. Nor did I influence its opinions except as to the Freshmen at the conference he refers to in the Faculty Room. This remarkable and wholly independent report was a great encouragement and helped very much to bring the plan before the students and alumni from a point of view beyond the reach of the administration. For it I have always been deeply grateful. A. Lawrence Lowell.
