Abstract
The article presents the views of four Fellows from The Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions concerning the question of how university administrators should respond to radical activism among college students in the United States. Robert M. Hutchins offers a historical perspective on radicalism at universities for the period of 1930 to 1950. John R. Seeley mentions the legitimacy of being a non-violent, radical student activist and a credibility gap in higher education. Neil H. Jacoby focuses on the philosophical posture of graduate business students and the causes of radical activism. Stringfellow Barr refers to student riots, the Middle Ages, and an analogy for community and college--Town and Gown.
