Strike Committee Continues
Seminars, Liberation Classes

The Virginia Strike Committee is
continuing today the seminars and task
forces that met with great success last
week.

From 10:30 until noon, a seminar on
the Lawn will be held to discuss methods
of communicating the issues and actions
of the strike to the faculty members. The
group will particularly concern itself with
ideas and tactics used in lobbying members of
Congress and the General Assembly, how these
tactics can be adopted in communications with
the faculty, and how students may best discuss
the issues with their teachers.

Faculty-Student Meetings

From noon until 4 p.m. the Strike
Committee is requesting that individual faculty
members meet with their students in the Lawn
or places other than in regularly scheduled
classes in order to discuss the academic options
they will offer to boycotting students, as well
as to discuss recent events. Faculty members
are asked to post on their doors where they will
be at this time.

The task forces held last night at the rally
will begin action on the formulated plans. The
Community Organizing Committee will continue
to send telegrams from the Charlottesville
community to J. William Fulbright and others
in the government, and they will meet this
morning at 9 in St. Thomas Hall.

Action On Demands

Liberation classes and seminars will be held
on the Cabell Hall end of the Lawn to discuss
and take action on the demands, the results of
the referendum, and the direction of the strike.
The topics include petitions and telegrams,
grade options, community organizing, Virginia
organizing and speaking, lobbying in Washington
and Richmond, counter-graduation, the six
non-military demands, military research and
defense, seminars and liberation classes, draft
resistance, and campaign organizing.
