...halftime. Time to catch a fleeting breath, recall the plays that had worked, assess the fumbles, analyze the opponent's weaknesses and plot a second-half strategy to win the Democratic presidential nomination. Walter Mondale looked back at the grueling, wildly erratic first half and declared in Philadelphia: "I have shown that I have the guts and the steel necessary to fight back under tough circumstances." Looking toward the imminent showdown, Gary Hart vowed at a pep rally in Denver: "When we come back out for the second half, you're going to see some long bombs...
...second-half comeback by Hart is far from inconceivable. But it will be difficult. Mondale is past the halfway point on his drive toward the 1,967 delegates needed to win the nomination at San Francisco in July. To catch up to Mondale from his present 571 delegates by the end of the primary season, Hart will have to win roughly two out of every three delegates to be chosen in the remaining primaries and caucuses.

The committee the Faculty set up to bypass its in adequate disciplinary methods developed into the Committee on Rights and Responsibilities, a political disciplinary group with a catch-all constitution used primarily for suppressing student protest. The new flexibility of the president who succeeded Pusey proved to be less substantive than procedural. Students are allowed a voice, now, through student-faculty committees and even, as the University's non-reaction during the 1972 occupation of Mass Hall showed, through demonstrations...
