To the Editors of the CRIMSON:
Mr. Alan M. Strook '29, Chairman of the Board of the Jewish Theological Seminary of America, has authorized me to state on his behalf that the sentiments expressed in his telegram to the Editors of the CRIMSON which appeared in the April 18 issue were his private and personal reactions to the present controversy. He has assured me that no faculty or governing board committee of the Seminary would or could take any stand on a purely internal Harvard issue. Mr. Strook spoke as a concerned Harvard alumnus. He did not speak in an official capacity. No responsible Jewish organization could in any way become involved in a matter such as the present controversy which lies entirely within the concern and competence of the Harvard University community. Rabbi Richard L. Rubenstein, S.T.M. '55, B'nai B'rith Hillel Foundation at Harvard University.
