...police linking arms in the basement of Mallinckrodt practicing a flying wedge, should they be called on. Several deans on the college administrative board sat out the furor with the Dow Chemical man, but along the way took students' names and demanded that every participating student turn in his bursar's (identification) card. Many students, unable to participate because of urgent classes--the radical of the sixties is serious--dropped by just to turn in their bursar's cards; so just who actually blocked passage is hard to know to this day. By dinner time the students relented, deciding that...

Pusey went on to exclude from his epithets those "sincerely concerned about the war" and participate in "orderly demonstrations." He also disastrously underestimates the depth of support for the Dow demonstration. Six hundred bursar's cards were turned in, and 300 students participated. Is this the tiny minority Pusey characterizes it as being? Pusey does, however, recognize the extent to which the University is involved in the outside world: He notes students' "concern for the outside world and...desire to use knowledge for social as well as individual good."
