...matter of fact, the Resolution on Rights and Responsibility gives students the right to protest, to demonstrate and to hold whatever opinions they wish. And incidentally, abolishing the CRR does not abolish the Resolution, it just eliminates the students' voice in the process of discipline. The CRR is the only disciplinary body on campus that has student participation--and an equal voice at that. The students have no other voice; advocating the CRR's abolition hurts the students. The AD board, for example, has no student representatives. By advocating the abolition of the CRR, students are embarrassing themselves by implying...
...just that those opposing the CRR have not realized it yet. You have joined a small crew of ardent antagonists who still find a need to cling to the "adversity" of the sixties in order to counter comments on how apathetic we students of the seventies are. So, instead of responding to such a charge--like many students have--by finding worthwhile causes such as the South Africa anti-apartheid movement or equal rights for women.

Phillips Brooks House can use the volunteers. But to cling to some dead issue like the CRR boycott or the abolishing of the CRR is wasteful and foolhardy. The Student Assembly will gladly put people to work to worthwhile ends. And even the Crimson needs people to deliver its papers, especially during Reading period. Or work with the CRR and we students who are interested in maintaining student participation...
...long as the CRR is designed as a political disciplinary committee no amount of reform will repair its basic flaw. There is no place in an academic community for an institution designed to control expression. Until the Faculty repudiates the very concept of such an institution, no student should break the reinstated boycott...
