...taking severe action against Wednesday's leaders, the Harvard Administration can keep the anti-war sentiment from turning into a student-power issue.

To prevent another incident when the CIA recruiters arrive next week, the University should warn the Mallinckrodt leaders that another violation would result in immediate punishment. If anti-war students believe that their cause justifies disruptive action, they should be prepared to suffer the consequences--and not expect the University to shield them...

From this jumble of material in the XR cage, it is difficult to guess what criteria Harvard uses to condemn a book to the XR imprisonment. Sassow admits that there are no written cri- teria for judging XR books, and says there are inconsistencies in the classification.

You can talk about it at cocktail parties, tell your friends that you (or someone you know) has tried it, and you can condemn those anachronistic drug laws. The gut re-action most people used to have to pot users -- lumping them together with hard-line heroin addicts and calling the whole lot disgusting--is rapidly vanishing...
