Take away the hawkish bombast, and Pell might have a point--if there really were a movement here to drive ROTC from the campus. But the HUC, HPC, and SFAC, the three student organizations at work on the issue, seem unlikely to recommend that the University sever all relations with ROTC.

Just as obviously, no one expects a Justice to sever old friendships when he takes the oath. On the other hand, even open, formal service to the President-as distinguished from informal advice such as Fortas gave Johnson-has been criticized. Eugene McCarthy has faulted Johnson for asking Earl Warren to head the commission investigating John Kennedy's assassination...
