...coincidence that the '67 Summer of Love was also Vietnam Summer. But the hippies are gone, the thrill of rock'n drugs is over, and SDS is now the largest fraternitysorority going. Lehman Hall at lunch is a scene in itself, if you're in need of a scene, and if you're verbal and aware or just lonely and disoriented, it's quite human to want to have a scene. Only you end up in Paine Hall, hassling impotent people and trying to figure out the real issues...
...least two years, and probably more, isolated groups in Cambridge have talked about mechanisms to bring people together, to admit a loneliness which is perhaps central to the phenomenon of having a good brain, and then to move beyond it. If SDS were clever, if the CRIMSON and the other publications were serious, if the clubs had a sense of humor, some combined assault might be made on the Administration for a center, a place where people could come and be. Where ego-tripping would be the only taboo. Where skills and ideas would be shared among friends. Where...
...cannot consider the administration blameless in this matter. For six weeks a movement has been building. A petition supporting the SDS position circulated and accrued over 700 signatures, which makes me doubt that the Paine Hall group really represented the sentiments of a small, vocal group trying to intimidate the faculty. It should have been clear after the first Faculty meeting at Memorial Hall that some mechanism for large-scale student-faculty communication was necessary. Therefore, I cannot understand why the administration scheduled the Lowell Lecture Hall debate for the day after the Faculty meeting Dec. 12, which clearly robbed...
...first place, it is clear that the position on ROTC supported by those who sat in was never intended to reflect student opinion on this matter. The SDS position, roughly, is that ROTC must disappear from Harvard and that there is no student right to participate in a Harvard ROTC unit even on a completely voluntary non-credit, extracurricular basis. The SDS has never claimed that this view was "representative"; they have opposed a student referendum on ROTC. Their claim is simply that their position is "morally right" and, in this, they have the support of what I take...
...discussions of ROTC in SFAC and Professor Lipset recorded the views of YPSL, including the view that a college-wide referendum should be taken. Moreover, the ensuing Faculty discussion suggested that Faculty views on ROTC are quite close to representative student opinions, certainly much closer than are those of SDS. This is simply not a case of students holding one view and the Faculty another with the generation gap between. It is a case of a minority of students and Faculty in basic opposition to the will of the probable majority of both...
