In Response to: Administration and Policy [6]

It has been 50 years since my picture was taken in the infirmary. I have tried to find out the facts surrounding the incident on multiple occasions, only to be stonewalled by past and present University officials. I met with the dean of students soon after the incident and contacted the president’s office when the New York Times article was published. I wonder if there are other concerned students who are interested in these issues and whether we can band together to have the University set up a committee to investigate the circumstances surrounding the bizarre photography. I would like to know who authorized the pictures, who knew the pictures were being taken, what the pictures were used for, and why the University did not feel that it needed to launch a full investigation. The only information I was able to uncover was that the pictures sent to the Smithsonian were destroyed.
