fmirr complaints that the UAW had lodged against the College There were i- ii V m I initially 25 complaints and all but five were dismissed immediately

I believe all this indicates clearly the success of the strategy that the Board has pursued from the beginning This consisted of four points first to try to confine the UAW mobilization to the areas in which it had already occurred second to try to prevent any disruption to basic College functions third to gradually encourage the reduction of the UAW membership to eventually lead to de- certification vote and fourth to designate AG Monaco as the point man on this issue This strategy has been followed carefully and systematically from the beginning and has proven to be successful Full credit should go to AG Monaco and to Donna Raynsford and also to Bob Rotberg who has followed this issue closely Lawrence College Sarah at
