...with the Faculty's overwhelming approval, was designed to set up a general Faculty policy on what kind of activity was unacceptable at Harvard. The Faculty has revised the resolution since the summer of 1969, but it still stands as the complete expression of the Faculty's feelings about disruptive student protest. "The central functions of an academic community," the resolution says, "are learning, teaching research and scholarship." Therefore, activities that disrupt those central functions are unacceptable, and the resolution prohibits, among other things, "deliberate interference with academic freedom and freedom of speech" and "obstruction of the normal processes...
...hearing, Collins described Inkeles as "totally dead" and "a desexualized being," but it didn't help--he drew two years in prison. Some old SDSers now say they think he must have been an undercover policeman, because, they say, whenever a meeting was going well he would disrupt it.

His point: a vast mass of Arab capital pitching aimlessly from country to country and industry to industry could disrupt economies and financial markets throughout the West. In order to avoid that, stable, long-term investments must be found for the Arabs, and the best...
Some legislators favored the move, others felt that throwing most of the state out of line with the rest of the Eastern Seaboard would disrupt the airline, television and other industries. More over, the action might be ruled a violation of federal law, which permits exemptions only if a state Governor applies to the President on the grounds of undue hardship or energy loss. In the end, the legislature as a whole took no action, but several members of Florida's congressional delegation have introduced bills in the House and Senate to repeal D.S.T...
