Concentrators in the Field of Economics give the Department a clean bill of health. Faculty calibre is rated high and courses seem adequate except in one instance. This field can safely be called at its peak for the present, being respected by foreign economists as the leading one among United States Colleges.

Only two changes are suggested, and they two minor ones. At present concentrators object to being required to take both History 1 and Government 1 as well as a correlation field in either History or Government. They claim that this distribution work consumes too many of their 15 College courses without any corresponding benefit.

The remedy for this situation would be to require either History 1 or Government 1 and correlation in either History or Government. This would eliminate one extra course in the field and allow men to take an additional economics course. In this way their conception of the field would be strengthened and their correlation would have more meaning than at present.

The second point brought up is the overworking of tutors due to the number of concentrators in the field. Obviously this is a definite fault and it brings up the question of the financing of the tutorial system. Either the Department's budget will have to be increased to allow for more tutors or the tutorial system will have to be modified so as to include only the honors students. Herein lies Harvard's chief problem for the moment and for the years to come. A definite decision will have to be made on this point within the next few years.
