- catalog description "On November 27, 1950, the chairman of the Committee to Visit the Department of Economics at Harvard, Clarence B. Randall, reported to the Board of Overseers that there was a lack of “balance with respect to viewpoints” in the instruction of economics at Harvard. Randall stated that there were several socialists and “advocates of the extension of economic controls by the government” in the Department but very few faculty members who held opposing views and who were prepared to teach them. In his reply to Randall, Conant explained that in his view the real differences in the Department of Economics were not over ideology, but primarily over methodology, between the applied/institutional and the theoretical/mathematical approaches to economic analysis.".
