Cornel West, Harvard Affiliates Call for University to Divest from ‘Israeli Apartheid’ at Rally
Student politicos announced yesterday that they planned to establish University clubs supporting the candidacies of William O. Douglas, Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, and Adlai E. Stevenson, Governor of Illinois, for the Democratic nomination for the presidency.
The Douglas-for-President Club will hold its first organizational meeting tonight in Emerson D, according to Edward W. Berman II., spokesman for the group. Berman said that the club, made up of College and graduate students, already has more than the required number for official recognition by the University but will probably wait until after tonight's meeting to apply for recognition.
Faculty sponsors named at this time for the Douglas Club are: Bart J. Bok, Robert Wheeler Willson Professor of Applied Astronomy and associate director of the College Observatory: John A. Ciardi, Briggs-Copeland Assistant Professor of English Composition; and Kirtley F. Mather, Professor of Geology and curator of the Geological Museum.
Carrington Announces
Water C. Carrington '52 announced last night that an organizational meeting of the Students-for-Stevenson Club will be held at the end of this week.
There is a great deal of sentiment for Stevenson in the nation's colleges and it will sound its first expression in a Students for Stevenson organization here," according to Carrington. He said that other Stevenson clubs should be springing up very soon in colleges all over the country. Carrington expressed confidence that Stevenson will be the nominee of the Democratic Party.
Membership lists and faculty advisers for the Stevenson supporters will be submitted to University Hall after the first meeting.
