A man awaiting sentence for contempt of court will defend the right of the individual to withhold information from the government, in a student forum next Thursday.
He is Willard Uphaus, Executive Secretary of the World Fellowship Center in Conway, N.H., who faces possible imprisonment for refusing to turn over WFC guest lists to the New Hampshire attorney general.
The Divinity School Student Association is sponsoring Uphaus' talk, which will begin at 4 p.m. in the Braun Room, at Andover Hall. Uphaus will discuss the topic "Reluctance to inform--a case for civil liberties."
Uphaus was convicted by the New Hampshire Supreme Court. He appealed to the Supreme Court of the United States, which upheld the New Hampshire decision, 5 to 4.
