A copy of a letter written by Larry Libow dated June 26, 1970. The letter was sent to all the white students who occupied the Administration Building on April 6, 1970 and who were expelled from Springfield College for this action. On of the outcomes of this action was the creation of the Collegium. In the letter, Libow runs down the list of events that occurred since they were arrested through June 25th. By date, the legal action that the students took against the college to prevent further disciplinary action at the college is outlined here. Libow ends the letter by saying that the Collegium, which was on of the direct results of this legal action, was paying close attention to the court proceedings and was about ready to propose the new judicial system for the college. He ends the letter by saying that he'll update them if anything important happens and gives them contact information if they plan to be in the area. For biography of Lawrence M.
