...hurts me--and I am sure I cannot explain the reasons to you if you do not feel the same hurt--to think that anyone would plead to this sensitive and conscience-ridden institution for amnesty if he meant to prick only its social conscience.

A source in the office of the Counsel to the Massachusetts Senate has said that it seems probable the Governing Boards' approval is required.
