As we leave Harvard, we look back at the amazingly interesting impact the IOP has had on our college lives. We have learned so much from our times on the former SAC and perhaps an equivalent amount during this time of restructuring. We also congratulate the task force on their hard work. However, amidst this period of transition the Institute should not forget the root concern that must be addressed. Until the Institute determines conclusively what the purpose of undergraduate involvement should be, there will never be any effective reform.
