Always Appropriate

"I feel that, on issues such as
these which are of concern to the
University community as a whole,
debate and discussion are
appropriate at any time," Mr. Cass
continued. "And I think it
especially important that the
president do everything within his
powers to make known his precise
stand on all issues of concern to the
students and the details of his
reasoning."

"Mr. Shannon's letter stated a
basic agreement with the goals of
the Coalition, while in fact
disagreeing in substance with the
demands," he concluded.

Other members of the Student
Coalition were not available for
comment on the latest development
in the controversy, which has now
dominated University affairs for
more than two weeks.
