Eight oi the graduating seniors walked out at the cere- mony alter Torr received his degree. They returned several minutes later, strode onto the platiori-n, and stood silently as senior Dan Cheitetz harangucd the audience about “the Wi'DtigA side priorities of the Gi‘ililiell education." Cheifetz, too, was booed and jecretl by some in the audience. Cheitetz also awarded I “Doctorate oi Lite” to senior Bonnie Tinker, whom the col- lege retused to give a degree because she would not take the required comprehensive ex- umination in theater.

Miss Tinker picketed the commencement ceremony and also made some unscheduled remarks when Cheifctz intro- duced her: After the ceremony, she explained that she was pl'n< testing “an educational system that reduces education to con- ditioning, which equates intel- Iectual doubt with moral neu- trality, and which reinscs to actively participate in the world."

The wives or two faculty members picketed the ceremony with signs saying, “Griiinell College honors another cog in the war machine." u. 5.

H u g h e s condemned insur- rection and illegal Violence by protesters, but warned that “the argument that the only way to maintain order is to club the innocent along with the guilty is both ialse and danger- eous," . The senator also told the graduates: “Truly eiicctive social and institutional change will occur only from the appli- cation of trained intellect, spurred on by commitment and guided by the values of liberal learnhig’."
