Open Letter Given to Drew Faust

Members of SLAM delivered this letter to President Faust in Eliot Dining on April 14 at lunch along with a "Greed Is the New Crimson" t-shirt.

We have requested a meeting with the President and Corporation no later than April 30, 2009. We have not yet received any response from the President or Corporation.

Will Faust Apply Her Dreams For America to Harvard?

SLAM just flyered outside the "Project on Justice, Welfare, and Economics Conference" at 2 Arrow Street.

"Greed Is The New Crimson"?

Some outside of the Harvard community have asked, why "Greed is The New Crimson"? Well, the answer is simple. It's a play on the recent (and very public) initiative to green the Harvard campus. All across Harvard Yard are banners that read "Green is the new Crimson" along with a myriad of wonderful initiatives coming from the Office for Sustainability and the Environmental Action Committee (EAC). We have no intention of being critical of the green work taking place on campus but wanted to spin a phrase that we knew all members of the Harvard community would recognize. We hope that green initiatives can assist in the solution to our budget crisis by helping to reduce unnecessary expenses that can both save the environment and save jobs.

"Well, as far as my daughter’s been conscious of anything going on around her, for like 2 years and change, I’ve been involved with that project. So that’s like my job. That’s where she knows where I am."
