Radner said last night that "if most juniors think the exam should be postponed, I assume that something can be worked out, but it is not clear whether to postpone it for a week or until next Fall...
...impression one gets from SDS gatherings is that its members feel a rising sense of desperation, a growing isolation from the rest of the student body and therefore a rising willingness to take unilateral action.
