I read with interest in the current
issue of Topics President
Shannon's "Statement of Conduct."
That is all very well but I
recently read in the paper that a
student organization had invited a
Black Panther official to speak at a
meeting of theirs, and the program
was called off only because this
official insisted on having Black
Panther guards at the door to
search those attending.
Now, why in the world should a
UVa group dignify the subversive,
revolutionary, negro (sic) organization
by inviting an official to
address them.
That seems absurdly unpatriotic
to me, and indicates the U. Va. is
not worth supporting by its old
alumni.
