It is not my intention to discuss this report in great of the University of Pennsylvania. detail. I am grateful to SCAFR for its efforts in general and for the report in particular. I will limit my comments to two important points. First, in the matter of the relationship between "Findings"and "Recommenda- tions," it is my understanding that, in the past. "Findings" of Grievance Panels If. Brief History have been understood as meaning "Findings of Fact." On the other hand. "Recommendations" have been understood as referring to actions that panels During the summer of 1980.a Panel of the Faculty Grievance Commission held have felt Provosts should take to settle grievances fairly. Furthermore, the Faculty a series of hearings in thecase of Dr. Maurice N. Srouji.
