...most difficult of all, the disciplinary problems growing out of the McNamara, Dow, Paine Hall, and University Hall disturbances. The response of the Faculty was perhaps predictably diverse. Some resented what they regarded as the intrusion of political issues into Faculty debates and deplored the Faculty's inability to limit its discussions to traditional academic questions. Others say many of the issues posed in these discussions as not only inescapable but highly relevant to the University's business and its relations to the outside world. Political disagreements in the Faculty necessarily came to the fore and could no longer...

That was unacceptable to the U.S., which would have had to unplug the underseas devices it uses to track Soviet subs. Washington, in turn, wanted the weapon-free area to begin at the three-mile limit, not at twelve miles, as the Soviets insisted.

If one's new Coop card is lost or stolen, $100 worth of charges-the current personal liability limit under Massachusetts statutes-could be run up within a very short space of time. The answer of course, is that the same might be said of the old Coop card Except that it is immensely easier to amass fraudulent charges in several stores than in one, particularly since credit card...
