Southern answers that allegation by saying that Rivera and other students involved in setting up the February meeting did not inform her that non-concentrators would be attending the discussion, nor had they prepared an agenda in advance detailing the issues that would be covered or the students who would discuss them. Rivera says that the concentrators told the chairman that "students" would attend the meeting--he did not specify "concentrators"--and that Afro students have submitted agendas to Southern prior to meetings in the past, only to meet with treatment similar to that met with in the February meeting...
