00:00:16.440 - 00:00:39.780

one. The university community shall be governed by orderly and lawful procedures in the settlement of issues and the full and free pursuit of educational activities on this campus shall be maintained to the university community shall abide by the new and liberalized political action rules and await

00:00:39.790 - 00:01:10.590

the report of the Senate Committee on Academic Freedom Three, the departmental chairmen believe that the acts of civil disobedience on December two and third were unwarranted. And that they obstruct rational and fair consideration. Yeah, Yeah. Mhm. And that they obstruct rational and fair consideration of the

00:01:10.590 - 00:01:28.100

grievances brought forward by the students. Four. The cases of all students arrested in connection with the city in in Sproul Hall on December 2nd and 3rd, are now before the courts. The university will accept the court's judgment in these cases as the full discipline for these

00:01:28.100 - 00:02:15.210

offenses. Yeah. In the light of the cases now, and prospectively before the courts, the university will not prosecute charges against any students for actions prior to December two and 3rd. But the university will invoke disciplinary actions for any violations henceforth. Yeah, it doesn't matter. They hope

00:02:15.220 - 00:02:37.720

that continuing chaos will bring about a total revolution and their own particular concept of utopia. Now. However, it is time for all men of goodwill, all individuals committed to the ideal of a free and democratic society to band together and save this university. There will be

00:02:37.720 - 00:02:55.160

a few perhaps who would prefer to destroy it, either from the ultra left or the ultra right. But I am firmly convinced, I am firmly convinced that they will not have the support of this university community or the people of the state first, there can be

00:02:55.160 - 00:03:17.570

no doubt of the absolute necessity of resolving our problems by means of orderly and lawful procedures. It is equally important that all sides to any controversy show good faith. Unless these two elements can be combined, the achievement of meaningful solutions is impossible. There are, there are

00:03:17.570 - 00:03:54.480

a small number of individuals I regret to say who are interested in fomenting a crisis merely for the sake of crisis in meeting this responsibility diversity, supports the powers of persuasion against the force, the application of decent means to decent ends, the constructive act as against

00:03:54.480 - 00:04:21.200

the destructive blow, respect for the rights of others, opposition to passion and hate. The reasoned argument as against the simplistic slogan, enlightenment in place of prejudice or ignorance, the academic world and the people of this state expect of us conduct commensurate with our past achievements and

00:04:21.200 - 00:04:50.720

our high capacities, We should expect no less of ourselves. Thank you. He tried to exercise free speech when he stood up there, the police took him away. That shows the entire process that's going on campus. If you do this. People, you are doing the chance for

00:04:50.730 - 00:05:29.990

free speech the right for people to advocate on campus. You this song man taken away by police because he is tempted to talk. If you do because the person tested talk. Please listen. Mhm This was a presentation of our views. We of course had no

00:05:29.990 - 00:05:53.670

notion that Mr Savio was going to try to speak at the end of this meeting. He asked just a moment. Just a moment. He asked just a moment. He asked shut up. He asked me at the beginning of the meeting whether he would be allowed to

00:05:53.670 - 00:06:10.610

speak at this meeting. I said that he would not because this was a structured meeting, not an open forum and we had a program which had been approved. Now I am letting Mr Savio speak because he has requested we had a meeting scheduled we have a

00:06:10.610 - 00:06:48.990

meeting scheduled for noon on the steps of Sproul hall. We invite these chairman of departments who are posing as a faculty to speak at that meeting. If they have the guts. I really expected that even though I didn't like the way they did

00:06:48.990 - 00:07:09.040

it. I really expected that we were going to get something today and we didn't. The only thing that they granted to us was that the people who sat in will only be processed in the courts and not on campus. We sat in and all we got

00:07:09.040 - 00:07:43.120

was partial amnesty for the sit in. I mean that's all we got at midnight tonight. We will at least temporarily these are strike and we will wait on the academic senate and we will wait and see if they can emerge as an independent force except the

00:07:43.120 - 00:07:55.360

failure to be men of goodwill which he had prayed for him. His speech this morning should clearly point out to the people of California that there's a revolution underway at the University of California and I'm insistent upon action.
