...students who gathered outside Austin Hall to protest did so in order to inform the Harvard community that many oppose the tactics and ideology of the PLO. Attacks on civilian targets, a refusal to recognize the legitimacy of Israel ("I will not consider this a relevant question," said Rachmun), and an avowed goal of liquidating the Jewish state are the subject of our protest. He, nor any other living PLO official will deny these aims. The heavy turnout of protestors clearly demonstrated students' disapproval...

So much so, in fact, that there is probably little that I can say here which will be new to those who have sought to inform themselves about the Administrative Board. People whose thirst for information about the Board is not sated by reading this essay, and I expect there will be few in that category, might like to look at other publications. The Undergraduate Council has recently distributed a question and answer pamphlet about the Board which is quite useful. Those who would like a more official version...
