STUDENTS IN Lowell House vote today on whether to participate in choosing representatives for the Committee on Rights and Responsibilities, the disciplinary group the Faculty set up in 1969 to take care of radical students demonstrators. When the Faculty set it up, the CRR wasn...
STUDENTS TOLD administrators that the new resolution made clear it was now "your rights and our responsibilities." But student opposition to the CRR never bothered the majority of the Faculty.
