VOLUME 92 NUMBERi~B6W 35 MIT, CAMBRIDGE, MASSACHUSETTS FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 29 1972 FIVE CENTS1. ,_~~~~, __ _,,, _,,, --- -- 1_ , _, · __ _ · _~~~~~F.lYE ENT

Early this wee, k, internal dis-cipline proceedings began for agroup of 20 MIT students ac-cused of being "'Present withoutrigt" during the occupation ofthe ROTC office area last spring.

The Discipine Committeeheld its first hearings Mondayand Tuesday nights, in theSpofford Room (1-236) with anaudio feedl provided to threeother rooms, for witnesses andthe public.

Professor Charles Myers,chairman o>f the committee,noted that the hearing will haveto be moved soon, probably tole.s luxurious quarters as' theroom is used for departmentalmeetings whic-h pace, 'manyother demands on the space be-

sides those of the committee.The Tech provided some pre-

liminary, coverage of the hearingsin last Tuesday's issue, but be-cause of the late hour-of thehearirgs, relative to our dead-fines, there were two inaccure-cies. The nuraBei of studentslistening was smaller than orig/-nally reported; about 40 accord-ing to later estimates from avariety of sources, in addition,Nyhart's tetimony was 'not ascontradctory (on the questionof the "democracy" of the meet-ings held in the. occupied area) aswas or/ginally xeorted.

A tape recording was made ofthe hearings for Discipline Com-fttree use, but there Nv be no

tmanscript madt of the tape, norw/ll any copies be allowed. Ac-cording to officials, this is nor-mal procedare for "the, protec-tion of the, students," In addi-

tion, they noted that it is less ofa storage problem for the Insti-tute, which would have to keepan archival copy of the tape ifany other copies existed.

The hearings began by beingmuch longer than some ob-servers expected: Jeffrey Met-melstein '72 was heard first, andit took about four hours (al-though the first hearing was ex-pected to be the longest). Start-ing at 10 pm and running untilalmost I am, Aaron Tovish '7 3had a three hour hearing.Tuesday night, Don Wetolan'72took two-and-onie-half hours tobe accused and to defend him-self.

A common thread of all threedefenses, and one which willprobably appear in most of thecases, was an expressed desire onthe part of the accused that allparticipants should be treatedequally, since they are "equallyguilty" of being present withoutright. One student -asked if therewere "different degrees of pre-sence. '"

There were problems with theaudio feed system, which al-lowed the hearing to be publicwithout being open. For themost part, they were not tech-nical, but rather human, as someof the participants simply werenot close enough to the micro-phone, or speaking loudlyenough, to be heard.

The committee will be meet-ing Monday night to discuss thehearings held to that point,which will include yesterday'sfor Janice Benson.

upon incidents like this.Questioned about the

Campus Patrol's part in theeaffair, Captain Janmes Oliv/eriexplained that the -members ofthe Patrol, as legally constituted-law officers, -are required tocooperate when presented -~Siith zlawful warrant. He noted that hefelt it is advantageous for thePatr-ol to have law officers cometo them first on such mattersand pointed out that when thisoccurs it is the Patmrorsprocedure to send someone withthem.

By Lee GiguereWhile legal action against

Gary Woods, :arrested at MITFriday for vfolations of theSelective Service Act, has tometo a temporary standstill, facultyreaction to the incident hasgrown into a feeling of"offense' -at the way themarshals conducted thormselves.

After reporting to the clerkof the Federd District Court inConcord, New Itampshke onMonday, Woods was slated forarraignment yesterday. However ,yesterday's session was cancelledwhen 'the judge b'eame ill, andthe arraignment has not beenrescheduled,

Woods also talked vith theUS District Attorney in Concordabout the evidence ag~anst im.,AU of it was in the govemment'shands by t970. (In. fact, hisviolations al occured i 19703,

"He seemed iUke a kind ofnice pencil pusher,,"` Woossaidof the fedtexal. attorney. Headded that no one, includinP g theattorney. was an-gry about Iislawbreaking, in fa t, e sacid, theman was ""kind of apologetic.Woods exphined that is efforto t~alk ,-,qth the attomney seemedto surprise him, noting tat hevas "'obviously bothered by thewhole tiringe"

At MIT, Professor of L hitorlyRichard MA. Dougas, head of theDepartment of the Human/ties,told T e Tech that he/is seadinga letter to President Jerome B,Wiesner sumnmn'wizng- the feeiiof people in the Departmonk"R~e~F oss f anyone's feeUng~

,aBout the draft, the war, or GaryWoods' oawn conviction,"Dougas said, "we have anobligation to defend the

integrity of the classr oom frominterruption or disruption."Wooes class, he said, was bothin-terr3pted and disrupted.

·Douglas admfitted that hemaderstood that the marshalswere within their legal rights,but noted that he felt it was amatter of common sense anddecency that they should notdisturb the class.

Thie first point of his letter,Douglas explained, was that themarshals --ook it uponthemselves to interrupt and -ineffect disrupt a class. He notedthat lie didn't see any way they.can defend their action. Hissecond point, he continued, wasthat Lieutenant Richard G.Driscoll Of the Campus Patroldid not identify the nature of hiservand when he entered theroom., Both lie and Mrs. RuthDubois, Department ofHumianities AdministrativeOfficer, Douglas said, assumedthat Driscoll's errand was amatter of death in Woods'family. Douglas added that hefelt it should be an MIT policyto notify a department,laboratory, or library of what ishapperdug.

Had he known what Dfisc011'smission was, Douglas stated', he.w-ould have tried to convince themar-shals -not to disrupt the class,He added that he thought theUS Marsbal' office should beinformed that MIT looks poorly

By Norman D. SandlerFlying into the Bay State last

week to discuss Republicancampaign activities, ClarkMacGregor, director of theCommittee to Re-elect thePresident (CRP), charged,Democratic nominee GeorgeMcGovern with being "on everyconceivable side of everysubstantive issue this year."

MacGregor,' speaking at adinner meeting of theRepublican Women's Federationin Boston, claimed thatMc~overn's alleged wavering onthe issues has been consistentwitfi the South Dakota senator'svoting record, and added that hehad heard even McGovern's staff,refers to his position papers as"McGovern' sandwiches."

According to MacGregor, themain issue of this campaign is

-the economy.. He told newsmenthat a "large increase" intake-home pay in August,reported by the LaborDepartment, a w as well as a 2.4%71increase in consumer prices(under what Nixon had set as aminimeum figure) are "proof thatPresident Nixoh's economicpolicies.,. are wyorkng.,"

The GOP campaign directorpredicted that l~cGovern's planto scm--p the current wage andprice controls would have a"devastating effect" on foodprices as well as consumer prices,and in his opinion would lead

America back to the 6% annualinflation rate of four years ago.

New eampaign techniquesMacGregor stated that the

CRP is now utilizing "new andinnovative" techniques to reachvoters and to attempt to

mobilize potential voters bygetting them to register to vote.

Specifically, he mentionedthe door-to-door convasoingwhich throughout the past fewweeks has sent admi nistrationofficials around the country tocampaign for Nixon, who will bemaking more personalappearances as electio n timegrows nearer.

The Repubicans, beingincumbents in the race for thepresidency, are at a naturaladvantage, and are relyingheavily upon the President's pastperformance in office as a basisfor re-election. The GOPcampaign director said that "thepeople are sending us a messagethrough the polls," andexplained .that "voters are sayingthat if you' are elected to a job,

w_At one point ~ar/ng the hear-M ermetst./n asked, "'If occu-

patin is not the way to dothigs at MIlT, what s the way?"Assistant to the Vice-Presidentfor Adrainistraon and Per-sonnet lSames Cuffiton repliedthat there am "lots of way todo lots of tings at MIT."

Mermelstein then asked Culh-ton, if he wer against the waras he said, what had he dsone toact on it? Cutitoh replied thatthere is an "election coming upwith a cho[~ in it, that's oneway Mao he said that there ae"bodies her havoled that carbe talked to to try to comvncethem.>

Dean Browmng was caed totestity andsaid that Mermelsteinhad clled for "miraculously en-te~ng the offices." He said thathe had, not -ad any personalphysical or verbal encounterswit Mermelstein.

For his defense, Mermelsteincalled one w/nme, Ron SiegelHe told Siegel that Culhton had-blocked his way when he triedto leave the buiding after theanno>uncements were made.Siegel said that he had gone toCu,.ton and asked him if theywere not atowed to leave. Siegelthen sad that Culiton had said,"No, you can leave, but he

,t" pointing to Meoesaein.When asked by Yadleig if he

had wanted to leave, MeTmel-stein replied that he had wantedto go and tell those who wereoutside what was happening in-side and to see what was outside.

Saying that "by natur I kidaround a bit,," Cullton admittedthat the incident might haveoecured, but added that hedidn't believe he was trying to.prevent Mermelstein from leav-ing. Asked why he thought Culli-tch k; done it, Mlarme!stein-responded that he thoughtCulliton was. trying to harasshim; "when one administratortells you to leave and anothertells you you can't leave, there's

some confusion," Mermelsteinnoted.

Mermelstein then argued thathe came witti the understanding

that he was charged with beingpresent without righat. Now itseems, he said, that `"t's a quest-ion of what I did in the ROTCbuilding." He added that theaction shaould be seen n a widercontext than iust MIT. He turn-ed to the war itself, expainngthat he was nauseated by seeingpictures of the war. Admitting itwas impossible for the MITcommunity to end the war, heargued that it is possible for agroup at MIT to end some as-pects, to stop individual compli-city.

What other alternatives werethere to their action, Mermel-stein asked. There was no otherway to end war research, hecontinued. If someone suggests arealistic alternative, Mermelsteinstated, "I'll be the f'st to work

' for it, with plenty of recuits."At this point, Myers interject-

ed: "W6ere still waiting to hearwhy you were in the ROTCbuilding."'

Our alternative, Mermelsteinrepeated, was the only alter-native. He was- a pacifist, hestated, abhoring physical vio-lence. It took a long time tobecome convinced that forcecould be used if that was theonly way. "I think the argu-ment's clear," he continued.

If the Discipline Committeefinds him guilty, Mermelstein

Myers, uncertain, asked iftffat which had gone before wasa conflusing statement. WhenTov.sh, replied in the affirmative,he was asked why he needed adelay iif he had no witnesses. Thechange inm tactics, Tovish re-

Cultit-on primarily testifiedaboutP two "blows, one a flickto the ear, another to theshoulder, as he spoke to anagitated member ,of the crowd.Hie recalled them as beingwithout provocation.

Tovish began a line ofquestioning which implied thathe was trying either to getCullitiozs attention (Tovishmentioned the "cop who firmedthe gun" dueing hLis questions) orto get a chance to talk to tahesame agitated student, It wasestablished that the blows werenot intended to injure Culliton.

Tovishreplied by asking if he couldI besure that the commit-tee cared,"tabout me, about people inVietnam, mad about my friendson trial"

Myeis stated that "eachstudent involved will have a fullchance to preset his dgefase,'""and added a plea for both sidesto try to shorten the hearing.Myers .also nmotedt that he couldnot pol the whole coammttee ontheir Imsortal ncearn. Anothercommittee member added "Wecan't al tak... Vie also wantenezu enough to hear personnumber 20:'

Wadleigh th-en asked if Tovishhad read hi si.tfoment of back-groaud information on theROTC ccupation. Tovish calledit "seccurte;" adding that therewere some mc.rrect details withwhich he would not argue, andconcluding "' am glad somepeople did those tings, even if Ididn't."

As Robert AUberty, Dean ofthe Seeel of Science weascoming from the witness roomto the hearing room, Tovishasked if it would help matters ifhe would admtit presence in theROTC offices after the trespassnotice and participation in theejection of Institute officers.T['hem war some confusion, and-no one replied.

Alberty testiied that Tovishird a leadership role among theoccupydig group, cal ng forhand votes and 'Ehelping to push

administrators out. He was askedby Tovish if he understood thedemonstrators' motivation.Alberty- said, "I have some ideaswhy you were protesting. I shareyour %worry over many of theproblems you were conceniedabout, but I disapprove of yourmethod~s."

[Because a transcript islacking, some following quolesmray be nrgiarly paraphrased.No mate'r&i i quorted which isnot very close to the original.-Editor/j Alberty claimed thathe had seen Tovish advocateexpulsion and occupancy, 'buthad not seen him in the actualoffices; only in. the corridor areathat was barricaded.

Linda Tufts of the Commit"teeasked Alberty when it was rightto use the corridor, and when itwas wrong. Alberty respondedthat it was wrong when youthrew other people out, but wasmiterrupted by Tovish, who toldTufts he didn't think the line ofquestions was helping. Myersthen asked, "Do you think thestudent members of thiscommittee are here to help you?None of us are here to help yourcase, we are here to hear it."

Milne pointed Tovish out as akey speaker at a Kresge rallyprior to the occupation, andtestified that Tovish struckCuliteon twvice, and was a

principal speaker at the ROTCsite. Milne was asked by Tovishif he udderstoed the motivationfor -the Kresge speech; Milnereplied, "I think I understandwhy. Short of your specificaction, I share your generalconcern ever Vietnam."

By Paul SchindlerIn order to allow public access to the

information of just what is going on atthe Discipline Committee hearings, (aninterest which will probably wane withtime) there is an audio feed from thehearing, room to three other rooms: twowitness rooms and the p ublic room.

Thus there were really three hearingsgc, hng on, and only two of them were anyfun; the ones "downstairs." The "ag-greved witness -room," f illed with MITadiministration members waiting to test-fy, found some defense arguments amus-ikg. The public rooms were often brokenup by laughte r over posturing by KenWadleigh or the committee. Some MITIeople seemed cynical about the defen-dants, while members of the public chtar-acterized VWadligh as a "very cold man."

The raeris of the argumenss on eitherside a re nct the real issue. The real issue isthat the virtually unrelieved boredom ofthe hearing room was not duplicated bythe observers, who were clearly better offunder this. arrangement than they wouldhae been if they had been forced to sitin the mme room as the protagonists ofthis re~at-life drama. The restraint anddecorumm the formal questions and ari-s. wers, the societal Testraints on publicaides,, aRl put a strain on the attentionspan of people actually in the room, Asone defesdaent put it, "There's. a littlehumor in everything."

An occasional "Bulk-oar," or "Whatskit;' at aFppropriate moments underlEts

ae critical points of the hearings, andqakes it easy for a reporter to pick key

poFint. Th-be combined expertise of a roomf*M2 of hipp es or a room full of adminis-iratoms is a valuable .resoure -Which the,commit*ee has overlooked for too tong.Maybe the audio link should run bothways.

Coathlins?As Spiro Agnew once said about the

media, they go to the same cocktailparties, ead the samae newspapers, andmeet each other for lunch. It was onlyafterwards that anyone b othered to findout that many of the peoplehe hwastalking about had never met each otheruntil after his famous remarks.

With about tre saeie amount of proofas Agnew had, I will assertthat amost ofthe middleupper echelon memrbers of thecentral administratioa at-,MIT know eachother pretty well. Barring outstandingpersonality conflicts (ifoene of which areobvious to the casual observer) they getalong pretty wel when they ma together.It is a subset of' this chummy group of

eeople that are testifying in the ROTChearings

Wadleigh ¢ldmsthat tahey are notbeiirn ccgiwled, and it is easier to believethat clam thatn disprove, it when nodisproof probably edits. No oere is evendisputin~g the official MIT chronology of

events o ,,,,,,,,,l p,.,,,.,l-e,-, mn Tech 7an.6..Extreme simil!arity in scene descrip-

tions cam be attributed to two possiblesources. First, it is possble that storiesare conmpared anad mateted; certainly aMachfiavellian proces if it is going onhere. Secondly, it i9 ms-posibe that inde-pendent observem of the same reality,located in the same place, looking at thesame event, might possibly see the samethings.

I arm inclined to believe the later,based on an overlyhelming faith in huma~nnature, and.- on the -face that the seasonedriot-watching team fielded by the adr'afn-istration knew enaou~gh by the spning of1972 to send multiple witesses, whotoo k -notes and pictu.

Yet there is still art interesting samne-ne sof language used in thine hearings:

:pushing and hauting;' and "the humanwave' rcut time adagain., deseribingevents which multed in the removal ofadnainistrators. {-Pn~a and shoving Ihave he.d before, but psi and haul-

ing?) Or the equally common use of thedual cncept of "occupancy and expul-sion," which is short hand for staying inthe office, and pushing the administratorsout.

One obvious source of the similaritymight be termed '"plagiarism," as onewitness hears another turn a good phrase,repeating it so that a thfird man notices,

and so on. Another mnight be the preci-sion nature of the administrative thEnkingprocess which leads to a common terseaccuracy:

Another possibility is random chance;the odds being about equal to the oddsthat you could get betting on the simul-taneous levitation of all the molecules inan eight ounce glass of water.

On stopping the Wk-eOne little noted feature of the admin-

istration efforts during the ROTC -cc cu-pation was the great effort required tokeep Cambridge police off campus., Apatrol car drove by during the peak of theearly activities, and had already called forre-enforcements. "%Ve didn't have to fro acomplaint, they saw a crime in theprocess of being committed,"" accordingto one Institute official, Apparently, thepolice felt it their bound duty to inter-vene.

Only great efforts on the part ofInstitute officials present kept the policefrom walking in on the situation -ightthen and there. While they were arguing,the depleted ranks of officialdom lostanother ten feet to the occupiers, the lastground lost during the occupation. One

-administrator descabed his uncnmny feel-ing of double tale' as he turuned aroundamd saw a policeman behind him, only tolook again and see that he was wearing aCambridge badge.

Thus, some administration mereberstend to become a little bitter whenreferences are made by students to "thefear that they would call the cops on us."

Alration apparently view~ 't, then thedefendants are guilty, since they do notcontest that fact. If tae committee ac-copts the argument that their moral con-victions gavethe thef endants the right tooccupy the building, then they are inno-cent.

The only possible debatable issue isthe punishment to be issued; iance thedefendants are all charged with the sameinfraction and are all either equally guiltyof equally innocent (one cannot y -thatone person is more present without rightthan another), they should all be equallydisciplined. ln any case, surely a thirty-eight hour occupation, duf/ng which noone was hurt, nothing was damaged, a/dthe occupiers did their best to leaveeverything as they/foum-sid it, even to thepoint of requesting a broom to lean upthe ame before leaving, does not justifymore than an admonishment.

The issues have already been madeclear in the hearings heard thus far. If theadministration inisist upon holding theremaining hearings, let the committeehold a joint heartiy, thus saving every-one's time and erkcrgy,and thereby permitthe Discipine /Committee to reach adecision and go :bout its normal business.

By Drew laglo-iThe Disciniei e Committee heariLgs for

the students who ccupied the ROTCbuilding L ast spring finally began lastMonday, At the curre nt average of abouttw-o-and-a-half hour per hearing, over thexext two montah s about fifty hours willbe sten~ by the f aculty and students onthe, Dicipline Committee, a half-dozenadrrdn/strators, and probably close tofifty students, including the defendants,tteir supporters, reporters from the cam-pus media, and those simply interested.

S.urely all of thiese people have moretm-ful things to do with their time, yetMIT im isi, not, only on holding thepointless'hearhtgs.. but on going throug heach cam indivi~dually, dragging the pro-cmss out f~or months, The stated reasonfor handling each case separately is toensure that each defendant gets a fair,personat hearifng. Thds apparently applies,whether the defendant wants to or not,

since the de, ndants have requested ajoint hearing. Like it or not, their"'ights" will be protected by the Disci-pline Committee. Beddes, says the com-mittee., that's the way it's always beendone before.

Thus far th-ere has been no significantdiffemrace in the various hearings. Theadministantion presents its case, con-sisting of ethe same handful of witnessesstating that the accused was prsment inthe ROW building (which the defendantsde not dispute), that he puished anadmirlstiiee;r, or tore -a piece of paperfrom an administrator's hand, or "led" adiscussion (none of which is relevant tothe charge of "presence without right").

Often the administation's testimonyi, far from uaimpeachable. In one caseJeff Mlcraelstein was positively identifiedby Jame.s J. Culliron, Assistant to theYield-President for Administration andPersonnel, as tearing a trespass noticefrom the hands of J.-D-aniel Nyhart, thenthe Dean for Student Affairs. Similarly,Kenneth C. Browning, Assistant Dean forStudent Affairs, distinctly rememberedMiermielstein calling for "miraculouslyentering the offices," Browning empha-sized that he remembered the incidentbecause the words stuck in his mind,Another defendant, later stated that itwas he, and rot Mermelstein, who wasinvolved ih the two incidents.

Another intereti-ag issue in .which theadmlistrtions testimony is question-able is lMermestei's; academic status. Theadministmtion raaint-:mred that he wasre-admitte poaisplayed on probation, and displayed acopy of a !eatte, purportedy seat toMermelstein, informing him of this-;Mermekstein denies reeivinp g the letter,and the resistmres record an Mermelsteinshow himl not to be o& probation.

When, the admifisr aflona is done. thedefendant prent a log, highly emo-tional sp~eech recomtSrng thre horrors _or'the Vietnam war and bb feeling that theyhad to do something to attempt to endthe war, or at least 10!~s i nvolvementthrough war mseamNh, He strmes the lackof any other means to do this within therules, uses these arguments as jueltificationfor the occupation, and expresses -hisfeeling. that them~ bsues tnmascnd 'theright of a ROTC cadet to stop -by hiscommandee's ofce on satwEdy morn-

The main question now is whetheronce they are on campus, the registrarwill actually register the students, espe-cially considering the problems studentshave encountered in attempting to regis-ter over the past year.

Althou gh the Supreme Court hiasthrown out the residency requirementswhich kept many students from roy/s-tering last year, many of ihe Commis-sioIners still exercise their power by goingby their own set of criteria in registeringstudents in Cambridg.

By .Jeffrey MermelsteinThe occupiers of the ROTC building

are not the only ones on trial. In a sense,the MIT Administration is on trial. Theywould have you believe that the issue isour "misbhehvior" and "interference" ofrights. We think that the issues are muchbroader - MIT's'relationsship with thewar (a war which interferes with theVietnamese' right to life) and the role ofstudents in affecting decisions which con-cern them. I will address these questions,and then discuss the hearings themselves.

Why the occupation?The US has been involved in the

Vietnam war for about 23 years - longerthan most of our lives. It has probablyhad more impact on most of us than' anybook we have read, any film we haveseen, or any course we have taken. Bynow~ta, it has bec ome instituti~nalized:atrocities are no on.ger shocking; presi-dential lies are now expected; demrion-stration s and disruptions against the Wairgo unnoticed., The only thing that couldhappen in the war that would surpris,. uswould be, an end to it.

Many of us have believed at on' timeor another that the war was comingn6 to anend - but we were wrong again andagain. By now, I have practically noexpectation of the war's ending. Despiteall of the negotiations, the basic positiforof the provisional government'of South

i Vietnam and of Richard Nixon have notchang ed. The question at stake is this:who is going to control South Vietnam?All otherissues are just gravy poured onbyii Nixon, Johnson , and Kennedy to! make the war more digestible to theAmerican peoaple. Even if Nixon followsthrough with his withdrawal plan, the warwon't end. He has said that he intends toleave a mesidual force -in Vie/nam, alongiwith America n air power and bigger andbel.ei' ,Ze'ctaloloyv Lo support the Thinegovernment.

As technology has- become more im-portant in the war, MIT has more thancooperated with the Federal Government.Four yeam ago the anti-complicity move-ment began to grow, In the beginning wepetitioned, de.monstrated, shy on panelsthat issued lengthy reports, debated ad-ministrators, supported' minorit y faculty

positions, held teach-ins, and canvassed.At first we thought that all that had to bedone was to make the issues clearer to theMIT community, and to demonstrate thata majority believed MIT should end itscomplicity - that then MIT would do so,by virtue of the pressure of public con-g~llgUSB

It was only after we won referendumson several major questions (fall, 1969)h aIt Yee reiaized that the will of the

mi jority of students doesn't exert verym uch pressure. Again and again, MITadministrators took some notice, someeven agreed "in principle," but there wasno action. We began to feel that if weonly worked th-rough the "legitimate"chamnnels we were not going to get any-where and therefore we began to experi-ment with sit-ins and eventually, militantactins. The results, while mixed, yieldedreal e ffects for the first time. We lookedat Harvard and realized that ROTC waskicked out only after a building occu-pation followed by a massive studentstrike.

Vic came to realize that the MITadministration responded to our concernswhen- we forced them to- Let me give afew examples:

When SACC (Science Action Co-ordinating Committee) held its firstdemonstration at the Draper Labs in thespring of 1969, President HowardJohnson immediately called for the"Agenda Days," time set aside for thecommunity to discuss topical socialissues.

When the demonstrations continuedthrough the spring, the faculty set up the-Pounds Panel to examine what MITshould do about war research and Draperand Lincoln Labs. (Except for the mino-rity report, which wanted MIT to main-tain as tnuch control over the labs aspossible and to convert the labs for doingsocially productive -research, the panelcalled for divestment, which is worse thanbefore, since the labs now have moreautonomy to continue war-research with-.

as an insfitution, and then for individualmmbers of the MIT community. We doso in the light of the three principlesvtated above.

M iT eviently includes among its goalsthe development, exchange, and impart-ing of knowledge. It must provide andmaintain an atmosphere in which the freeand open exchange of ideas can occur andis eidcoumged. It has, therefore,. the rghtmnd the obligation to protect the integrityof its classrooms and laboratories, theintegity and privacy of its personal of-rim, and the freedom of its members topursue their normal activities. It has, atthe same time, the responsibility to re-· poad, directly and openly, to the con-teat of dissent. Moreover, it must developmeans and agencies for exercising theseriots and responsibilities. An individualwho forcibly obstructs the essential oper-ations and functions of the universityvilates Ome rights of the univemrsdy.

Members of the MIT community havecertain rights and responsibilities as indi-vodaais. As members of the MIT commun-ity, they neither surrender t heir rights norescape their responsibilitis as citizens-Rather they acquire additional rights adrsponsibilities which are special to theuniversit y commu nity. These rights in-clude thre right to toeach, to study, 'topursue search, and to puticipate in thedecision-making prmcedure of the com-munity in a. way that does not violate thesame: rights of other individuals in tiecommunity. These mponsibilifies includethe mponsibility to help maintain anatmosphere of open and free inquiry andof mespnsieeess to the ideas of others,an atmsp re- in Wbi eg violations ofrights am unlikely to mcur aind in whichno individual me-mber1 of the communityees force to act to protect his own

ri ht&With egardi to dissent, all members of

·-- he community have the right to expresspolitical mSews, views relating to gover-n0ce of the univermity, and views on

ethos matters of cone. m to the commun-ity. Appropirate ways of doh~g so ia-

lude: -,ganizing and joiinng groups andassociations; convening and conductingmeetings; petitioning in ~urfiin and inperson; marciting, picketing, and other-wise publicly demonstrating in an orderlyway; and- advocating and publicizing opin-ions by sign anmd voice.

Each member of the community has atall timem both in the expossion ofdimnt and otherwise, an obligation torespect the basic rigts of other indivd-uals. Such rights aPm volated by anyone.who commits a violent act, by verbaltreat or physical force, against a memberof the community; whlo subjects a -memn-ber of the community to direeCt pomeralabuse; who deliberately interferes with~freedom -of speech; who steals or wd!lfullydestroys the property of the univesity, orof other members of the community; orwho forcibly interferes (by direct physi-cal -act or -threat of violence) w/th thefeedom of movementt f any member ofthe community.

In order to help maintain an environ-mens in which violation of rights areulikely to occur, members of the com-munity concerned with. admidnistrationmust be sensitive to needs or change, andthey must be sure that grievances amgiven full and fair hearing and prompt

occurs, and to consider the context ofany dissent which is associated with sucha challenge,.. in such consideration, theuniversity will do well to include, as partof its response to such a challenge aeamdhing reexarmination of the policies

and operations that have been the objectof dissent .. ."

To some extent we represent a "chal-lenge" to some of MIT's operations, Wethink that we should be dealt with in asopen and honest a way as is possible,,which I do not believe is being done,Because these hearings are political, I donot think that they should be handled bythe Discipline Committee or by any othercoammittee. T-he issues should be dis-cussed and resolved by the entire MITcommunity. To this eind 1 would hopethat all concerned par'ties wil attempt toinitiate discussion about the issues raisedby the original action.

.out MIT having any responsibility.)A, funny example is the Solow com-

mittee. It was put together as a result ofthe Cambodia strike ifi 1970 to look intothe MIRV and ABM projects (missileswhose guidance systems were beingdesigned at Draper labs) and discuss howthey would affect world stability andwhat if anything MIT should do. Thecommittee was supposed to report to thefirst faculty meeting in the fall of 1970.The group never reported, until finally,during the student strike last sprin-g some-body remembered and it came out thatthey had never even met! Except forperiods of pressure and general turmoil,there was not even the pretense of actionon this crucial question.

The ROTC occupation, and my parti-cipation in it, were in response to Presi-dent Nixon'S mining of North Vietnameseharbors and his escalation of bombing.'When he said that the "whole world waswatching" and that he needed our sup-port, our finst reaction was to try tofigure out what we could do to show himthat we weren't supporting him. I wouldhave lost respect for myself if I didn'trespond in any way to Nixon's actions.We wanted to do something thatwouldn't be totally ignored.

Critque of the hearingI was charged with "being present,

without right"' in the ROTC building. Idecided not to contest presence and thushave the entir e trial revolve around thequestion of right. Instead, what happenedwas that the "aggrieved, " P rofessor KenWadleigh, brought four witnesses to testi-fy not only that I was present, but alsoabout what I was doing and what my rolein the group was. The Chairman of theDiscipline Committee, Professor CharlesMyers, supported this action, using thegrounds that each case should be judgedaccozdh-ir~, to it iad-diidual circumastance..As a result, I had to defend myself againsta series of accusations, false and true,completely unrelated to the statedcharge, such as: Was my role in the goupone of leadership? Did I snatch a piece ofpaper out of Dan Nyhart's hand? Did Iactually push anybody? Did I advocateexpelling administrators from the build-ing? etc.

It seems that to Wadleigh, the issuewas: -Was I misbehaving, and how badly?'With this narrow a conception of theissue, and a c lear misreading of thecharge, his bringing forth the testimonyhe did is at least comprehensible. Hewants to di&scourage misbehavior at MIT;fine. But if the 'Discipline Committeeshares this view in choosing their role,ignoring the larger political and moralissues ob'tiously raised by these cases,their decision will be a gross and out-rageous inversion of human value prior-ities.

a number of less extreme pecularitiesabout the hearing should also be men-tioned. First, this is another example ofMIT's standard practice of reservingdouble jeopardy for political cases:ordinarily MIT either tries a case beforeits Discipline Committee, or turns it overto the civil courts; the' exceptions (to thebest of our knowledge) are all the poli-tical cases. Apparently' MIT doesn't takeseriously the principle of the Bill ofRights prohibiting..the trial of a persontwice for the sam'e crime.

A second oddity is that there seems tobN no clear c onnection bet w een chargeand penalty. I was told by the Committeethat it is possible that two defendantsfound guilty of the same charge couldreceive completely different penalties be-cause of what they did while inside thebuilding.

Other facets of the hearing bother me:I thought that the hearing itself was veryintimidating - it had a backroom qualityto it, aad Charlie Myers' constant inter-ruptions didn't help matters much. I alsofelt that without a clear enunciation ofrights and regulations, especially rights ofthe defendants, I was incapable of givinga good defense. Also, there's hardly apretense of "trial by peers" in the struc-ture of the committee: as of now, it isclearly dominated by faculty members; Iwould be happier with a randomlyselected jury of my peers: Fianlly, it's noteven a pretense of justice that the highest

To the editor:I. understand that The Tech has invited

a statement from the administration anthe ROTC hearings which might be pub-lished in the next issue. On the questionof the particulars of the event, ProfessorWadleigh's presentation to the DisciplineCommittee, already given to The Tech,represents the formal statement -on behalfof the aggrieved. Beyond that; I can thinkof -no more appropriate statement that wewould like to have before the MIT com-munity than the report of the Rogerspanel of three years ago. I am sure youare familiar with it, but I enclose a copyof it and refer you particularly to thesection on Rights and Responsibilities inthe MIT Community, pages 9 through 13,which is relevant to the events of lastsprhkg.

We believe it would be a se~r~ice to the.community to communicate once againthe relevant passages of the Rogers' re-.port.

Rights aind Re m imom ihH/sin the MIT CammunifV

The following statement is not exhaus-tive and will, it is hoped, be improved andreflned in the deliberations of the MTi'Commission and in accompanying discus-sions throughout the community. In ourvi0ew this, statement is, at least in put,. asummary of common attitudes and corn-mon law at the present time.

We begin our statement with threeprinciples regarding the university, parti-cipation in the university, and the role ofdissent.

First, it is desiable that every memberof the university participate, in someform and at som.e level, in thre decisionmaking procedures of the university,Such partiiipation, whether it involveassent of dissent with currnt policie.s andpmnctices- is a --eative and constpica.veforice in the decision making process.

Second, the university can be expectedto defilne its general goals and to statefurth~e. the essential operations and func-tLions appropriate to those goals. It thenhas the responsibility to establish guidle-lines and procedures that ensure theintegrity of its essential operations andprotect the rights of its individual memn-bers to carry out these operations.

Third, in exerc'esing its right and obli-gation to defend its opertions the ural-versify has an obligation to consider thecontext in which each chaileage to itsoperations occurs, and to consider thecontent of any dissent %which is associatedwith such a ch-allenge. This context caninclude0 circumstances in the surroundingsociety, it can include grievances of indi-viduals and groups within them ondversify,community, and it can include particularstatements and acts by members of thiecormnmotiy. In such consideration, theuniversity will do wiell to include, as periof its re.sponse to such a challenge, asearching re-examination of the policiesand operations that have been the objectof dissent. Such direct and honest actionby the university can thus lead to activeexamination of the issuesthat have beenthe subject of dissent, even though it canalso lead to penalties for those who have'violated the rights of others or the essen-tial functions of the institution.

'We now give the following as specificrights and responsibilities, first, for MIIT

appeal we have is the MIT president, whois in a sense the head of the prosecution!

One wonders why it was just taken forgranted that we wo,)uld go before the samegroup that tries cases of cheating, pettytheft, etc. The MIT administration, bytreating this as any other case, studiouslyignored the political questions directed atit. I hope the committee itself will take adifferent attitude.

Prof. Myers spent some time quotingthe Rogers Report, a documen t that cameout in Deciember, 1969 in response to theNovember actions. He quoted the partswhich supported the view that the disci-pline committee must handle these cases.What he didn't read is the followingz:" .. .in exercising its right and obligationto defend its operations, the university.has an obligation to conside r the contextin which each challenge to its operatidns

each student must select his owncurriculum in conjunction withhis faculty advisor who is in-volved in the same interdiscipli-nary field as the student. Thecuriculum must then be ap-proved by a committee consis-ting of one member from eachdepartment of the School ofSshould be in line with theparticular field of study and willnot usually be Science Distribu-tion subjects. The ISP studentmust also meet the GeneralI nstitute Requirements andobtain 96 credits in electives tototal 360 credits for graduation.

The inain office of ISP is inroom 6-219. Freshmen-will havea chance to select this programwhen they are asked to choose adepartment in the spring. Thereis no problem in transfernngfrom ISP to a regular depart-ment at an- time.

The program is for studentswishing to earn a degreee in afield where no degree programexists at MIT. It is not a substi-tute for a regular departmentalprogram in fields where degreeprograms do exist.

By Paul SchindlerVice-Presidenlt .Kenneth R.

Wadleigh, acting as MIT's "ag-rieved representative" at disci-plinary hearings for participantsin last spring's ROTC occupa-tion, has issued a statement out-lining certain positions taken bythe MIT administration in thecase.

in his statement, Wadleighasserted that "In filing thesecharges, Mr. Wynne [JohnWynne, MIT Vice-President forAdministration and Personnel]and I have not attempted todiscr/minate as to the degree of'he accused's involvement.Rather than attempting toexercise this form of judicial

review, we filed charges againstall of those unauthorized per-sons whom we were able toidentify as being present whentrespass was declared (3:35 prm,May 12, 1972) and beyond. Wefeel we must leave to the Disci-pline Committee and the courtsthe determination of the rangeof judgements pertinent to therange of actions of the individ-uals charged."

Wadleigh did observe thatseparation of the three currentcases (Mermelstein, Tovish, andWolman) from the other defen-dants was a decision of thefaculty-student DisciplinaryComnmittee, not of the MIT ad-ministration. For this reason,

Wadleigh said, he would prnot to speculate upon the com-mittee's action. The defendantsand their supporters maintain,though, that the previous expul-sion of the three for occupfmgPresident Howard 3Johnson s of-fice in January, 1970 was partlyresponsible foir the decision toseparate the cases.

However, when asked if M[er-mrelstein and Tovish were beingsingled out by the adtinistg-tion as leaders of the ROCoccupation, Wadleigh repeatedlyrefused to commlaent. "I am noton trial,'; he said. He suggestedthat The Tech consult his state-ment.

Wadleigh, formerly Dean iofStudent Affairs from 1961 to1969, claimed that it would be"improper" to comment in ad-vance on the evidence to beoffered in later hearing. Thiswould be tantamount, he said,to "trying this case in fthe prss.'He did say that there had beenno "coachinge" of administrationofficials, and that their recolec-tions of times, places, and faceshad such precision because manyof them "took notes" at dhetime.

Wadleigh's statement notedthat "not all observers of thisevent we-re asked to help identi-fy unauthorized participants.'There were authorized- -partici-pants, as reported in The Tech,including students who wereasked to observe. They wereallowed to not identify occu-piers, "without prejudice.-. fOTwhatever reason." The statementadds that a "minimum of twowitnesses was required" beforecharges were filed, and that nocharges will be filed now or inthe future against 'people whoserve as witnesses in either court-room or Discipline Committeehearings, but who have not beenpreviously identified as partici-pants in the occupation.

nhe announcement includesan apparently definitive state-ment on damage done by the

3Jam Culli3mn Assistat to ta Vice Perdm-, for Administmfionarid Pemonnel. lHstens to twtmsny at the Discipline Co ;mmitt

ROTC occupiers. The Tec Tag&special issue merely stated thattlere was no visible sgm of,major d&amage. Wad e~Ws wit-ten statement to the DisciphneCommittee 5nctuded tbhs para-gaph: "'Although damage wasslight in comparison, fot ex-ample, to the occupation of thePresdenrt's of fi e severl yearago, there was some. In additionUie ROTC personnel reportedsome apparent pflfeeg of a fewpersonal tems. The extent towhich the goup entered the fless-S not ,cla; howeveT , ther wasno serious -dsturbance to thosefiles."(See .alsothe couna12 on pgefroeby PaWl Schindjer. -Edito)

By Robert NilssonMIT has given birth to a new

degree program leading to anundesignated Bachelor of Sci-ence diploma.

The new programn is titled theInterdiscipilinary Science Pro-gram (ISP, or Course XXV). Thecourse is intended for studentswishing to study a field in adepartment that has no eiegreeprogram,

Although this is the first yearfor Course XXV, the program isnot new, Since 1968, CourseXII-B was an experimental ver-sion of ISP sponsored by theDepartment of Earth and Planet-ary Sciences and having the samedegree requirements as that de-partment. Last year the Com-mittee of Education -Policyevaluated XII-B and decided tomake it permanent.

ISgY is nowi the only p ogramthat offers a degree which doesnot come from a particular de-partment. Its purpose is tobroaden the range of degrees andfields offered at MIT.

As to the curriculum, nospecific subjects are required:

migt detract from the credibil-ity cf some of Wolman's otherstate s. Coming to Wolman'sad were Steve Mark and JaniceBenon, Mark saying that he waspretty sue lie had heard it andBemwn sayirg that she had de-fnitey heard Wadleigh say itaside to someone standing nextto him. It was thought by mem-bers of the committee that may-be she had heard the words "isnot complicit in" in the place ofthe. word "no" in the allegedquote. Benson asserted that itwas definitely "no."

olinan refused to answer aquestion asking him if he wentthrough ~es in the building. Hereplied that he was on trial forbeing present without right andnot for going through files ile-gary, and was immediately in-formed that he was not on trialbut that the proceedings-onlycoastituted a hearings

Asked why he participated inthe ROTC occupation after theoccupation of the President'soffice had been unsuccessful,Wolman replied that he findsROTC "repugnant" and that ittrains people in counter-insurgency techniques. Had heseen a ROTC curiculum, askedthe committee? No, but he said

'be had known people involved init and had seen enough to knowabout counter-insurgency work.

The final witness was a friendof Wolman's who had been amember of the Pershing RifleSociety, telling of trips to"dense forests" with rifles load-ed with blanks to leam thetactics of guerilla warfare. Whenthe committee discovered thatths had -happened since theoccupation of the ROTC build-ing, it was decided that regard-Ies of the validity of Wolman'sfrienad's testimony, it had nobearing on -te hearing.

At $ :20 Wolman asked if thehearing was almost over since hisad-visor had to go and meetsomeone. Myers said they couldwrap it up then and Wolman

concluded with the remark thathe had never been told that hewas on probation.I~...

(Continued from page I)you should stay on that job onthe basis of performance inoffice."

With this campaignphilosophy, the Republicanshave found that they certainlyhave their work cut out for themin Massachusetts.

MacGregor also rathersuprisingly indicated that Nixonhimself may make an appearancein Massachusetts before theelection, and what may be evenmore unusual, he also said he is"virtually c e rtain thatVice-President Agnew will makea campaign trip to theCommonwealth," which couldbe a tense situation for theMassachusetts CRP due tostrained relations betweenAgnew and Sargent, who hasrepeatedly voiced his objectionsto the vice-president.

On the question of campaignfinances, which have not beenmuch of a worry to theRepublicans in the past,MacGregor asserted that "we'rein the process of cutting back... I put a ceiling on theemployment of new people atWashington headquarters tendays ago." Apparently, theproblems are not unique to thenational headquarters, as theMassachusetts office ran over itsbudget several days ago, andwhen asked whether he would

appropiate more campaign fundsfor this state, MacGregor flatlystated "we don't have themoney."

Loss of enthusiasmIn a'news conference prior to

the address he gave to theRepublican women, MacGregorcame close to getting himselfmisquoted when asked about theretention of present cabinetmembers.

He responded by saying "thePresident feels that after acertain period of time on a job, aman loses enthusiasm for thatjob." He was quick to add thatthis is not true in Nixon's casethough there are some membersof the cabinet who have servedthe entire term, singling outsecretaries William Rodgers ofState and Melvin Laird ofDefense.

With the possibility that bothLaird and Rodgers will be outafter November, MacGregorhinted that HEW SecretaryRichardson may be waiting inthe wings to be named asRodgers' successor as head ofthe. State Department, while heneither confirmed or deniedrumors that Volpe will resignafter the election.

Because of the light winds onSaturday, the women were ableto sail only two of the scheduledelimination races, with the resultthat the trials were continued onSunday morning. At the end ofthe seven races on Sunday after-noon that comprised the finalsof the event, Maria Bozzuto '73had won the championship,besting her nearest competitorby ten points. Fourth place went'to Shelly Bernstein '74, withGailt Baxter '74 tying for eighth.

Bozzuto, captain and topskipper on the MIT women'steam, took the title~ with consist-ent finishes of 4-3-1-3-1-3-4 inthe twelve boat fleet. She gainedthe lead after the second raceand led from that point on.

The top few finishers were:Maria Buzzuto (MIT) 20, KathyBoynton (Conn. College) 30,Barbara Grant (Radcliffe) 31,and Shelly Berstein (MIT) 34.

On Sunday the men's teamcompeted in the Hap MooreTrophy Regutta, an event sailedin two divisions of dinghies, oneof Knockabouts (keel sloops),and one of Ravens (centerboardsloops). The race for the firstthree places in the regatta wastightly contested, with the topthree teams. all within ninepoints of each other. Tufts was~LhZi ,v-nniePr vnith Hw-r':,axd insecond place and MIT in third,in the seven school field.

Alan Spoon '73 and SteveCucchiaro '74 skippered the din-ghies for MIT, with Dean Kross,'73 and Bob Longair '73 crew-ing, respectively. John Avalon'73 with Walter Frank '74 andWayne Matson '74 crewing,sailed the K-boats, while FrankKeil '73 skippered the Ravens,with Rich Zippel '74, ChuckTucker"75, and Randy Young'74 as crew.

Spoon placed second overallin the dinghy division, while heand Cucchiaro came within onepoint of taking team honors indinghies.

Last Sunday's "A" leaguefootball "Game of the Week"pitted LCA against DTD.

The game was quite an eye-opener for many, The strengthof the DPelt team surprised mostof the "A" league team scouts.Freshmen on both teams foundout that this brand of "touclh"football is unlike any other,.

Lambda Chi started movingthe ball early and scored a quickttouclhdown. The Delts inabilityto get off a clean punt put themin trouble in the second quarterand LCA scored again. TheLambchop quarterback showedincredible poise under pressurefrom the fierce Delt line.

In the second half the Deltmachine began to roll. Quarter-back Wayne FlaMs followed the"thundering herd" around endto the Delts' fist touchdown.Minutes later a Flag to Casletscoring strike capped an impres-sive drive.

With the score tied, both de-fenses played a brutal fourthquarter. The Dielt coach describ-ed the line play as a "'constantstreet fight." Roughness penal-ties called back the Delt go-ahead touchdown.

After an impressive drive inaovere-iAe, txe Doelts gave up thebaL. Two . gays later Dave Wil-son '73, Lamnbchops' peennialall-star, outraced the Delt secon-dary to catch a perfectly thrownpas- for the clinchaer. thrownpmas for the clincher. The finalscore was LCA It, DTD 12.
