The piece argues Arizona's three state universities are governed by a well‑meaning but out of touch board of regents. It urges on‑campus, one‑to‑one talks with students and faculty to address fears of political image over academic excellence, repression, eroded morale, and ignored student needs.
The piece argues that a strong current of unrest at the universities is rising as regents belittle student protests. It notes student body presidents asked for regular meetings to discuss matters but were denied. Dr Paul Singer represents the board, claiming no time for such meetings due to budgets and buildings. It warns that without communication the three universities will face escalating restiveness.
