Board Rejects Schultz Amendment On Campus Groups
The Board of Higher Education rejected a Schultz amendment banning subversive groups on city college campuses at a Thursday meeting. Fifty students from City, Columbia, NYU, Juilliard, and Cooper Union attended while sixteen Columbia faculty and the New York Chapter of the National Lawyers Guild opposed the amendment in the committee room. The plan drew protests from student councils at City, Hunter, Queens, and Brooklyn Colleges who warned it would curtail academic freedom. A separate resolution condemned communism and praised American Youth For Democracy as a Communist front, urging faculty to scrutinize all organizations more closely.
