<p>Following up on a couple of comments above: </p>
<p>a) Harvard’s William Fitzsimmons was on the study group that recently decried the SAT Reasoning Test, but as coureur has correctly pointed out in other threads, just because some people express doubts about the SAT Reasoning Test does not mean that Harvard will drop the SAT Reasoning Test as one test (alternatively with the ACT with writing) required of all applicants. (By similar reasoning about slow changes in large organizations, I don’t predict that Harvard will require five SAT Subject Tests of all applicants any time soon.) </p>
<p>b) The answer that Harvard has no Greek system, given at an information session in Minnesota, simply means that Harvard has nothing at all like the pervasive presence of Greek fraternities and sororities near campus in a Fraternity Row that the University of Minnesota has. I don’t suppose it has an officially recognized Pan-Hellenic Council like Minnesota either. That was the context of the remark, as my notes above make clear.</p>
