Students uphold NffS~

Dear Miss Nichols,
student
University, .we of course cannot
fully comprehend - the black
experience. However, the tactics
used in the investigation of,the
NBS and the apparent motives
of some students involved leads
us to agree totally, with the
leaders and membership of the
NBS.
We. propose two suggestions.
First,     we     feel     that     the
investigation "has has not" T^IW

how the people outside of the^
campus community -see us, 1 feel
right now, that we. are making
ourselves look bad. I say this in
reference to the seven concerned
students who, we as. .the
university are allowing to
represent us in a seemingly
under handed way.'Arelwe to
