This experience, and talk with other students on this campus has MARK OF EXCELLENCE convinced me that most white students on this campus have no conception of what black people are fighting for. A society which can turn out people who do not know who the first president was, and people who think this fact funny, is desperately in need of change. Black people want their basic rights as human beings, and any white student who does not know what I mean should take a drive when he goes home. Drive around your own neighborhood, and then drive to the black section of your city, and I'm sure your city has one, and take a good hard look at both of them. Try to imagine yourself living there.

Randy Dicks Randy Dicks had criticized President Nixon's unfortunate Sept. 26 remarks, in which the President had said that "under no circumstances will I be affected whatsoever by ... opposition to the war in Vietnam on the cam­ puses and also in the nation." In order to soften the effects of these remarks and some others (e.g. "I'm not going to be the first President to preside over an American defeat."), the President chose to publicly reply to Dicks' letter. In his reply, the President cited "the clear distinction be­ tween public opinion and publie demonstration," noting that if he allowed his course to be set by those who demonstrate, he would betray the trust of all the rest." He also noted that " ... others can say of Vietnam, 'Get out now' . . . They can ignore the conse­ quences."
