...codes. This is simply untrue. The resolution calling for the provisional codes was called for by the BU Faculty Senate Council, a faculty group representing the entire BU Faculty. Further, the committee that drafted the language of the codes was not as Mr. Shane said, "a Silber appointed committee". Of the nine members of the committee, the three administration members were appointed by President Silber, but the other six, three students and three faculty members, were chosen by the Faculty Senate Council. Further, Silber does not, as Shane argues, appoint the hearing examiner for any cases arising under these codes...

I'm a big trophy. Well, I'm not going to fall down and be his [Petersen's] victim, I can assure you." He added that Petersen had not only mishandled Watergate but, through "blunder," had also prevented the successful...
SCHLESINGER: Both Vice Presidents Colfax and Calhoun, the two cases often cited, involved actions done before they became Vice President. But they don't provide a clear precedent. In the Calhoun case, the House accepted the responsibility to appoint a select committee to investigate charges made against Calhoun some years before. In the Colfax case, it declined to do so. In the Agnew case, not only do the two precedents glance in different directions, but we aren't even clear that the complaints against him do not spill over into his vice presidency...
