The Strike Committee and SDS face financial strain after last spring’s protests, with debts around $100,000 and current funds at $16,000.

Faculty Okays Demonstrations But Limits Their Effect
About 10 000 Columbia faculty were invited to a September 12 meeting in McMillin Hall. 750 attended a five hour session on April disturbances. Amnesty was discussed but rejected. leniency for strikers gained broad support. The Joint Committee adopted rules limiting picketing and mass rallies with strict conditions. Indoor demonstrations are allowed again but tightly regulated. demonstrators must leave at closing. The panel shows a hard soft discipline approach, threatening suspension or criminal action yet seeking to drop charges against many trespassers and reinstate some demonstrators.
