More discussion from within the demonstration in the ASUC building on November 30th, 1966. Students and faculty continue to talk about the possibility of striking the following day. Professor Henkin tried to call a vote on postponing the strike, which students called a "cheap demagogic trick." They discuss the Mulford Act arrests of non-students and the status of non-students. Students find out that ASUC voted to strike if two demands were not met before the following morning. Speakers who are opposed to the idea of a strike are given the stage to talk.

More discussion from within the demonstration in the ASUC building on November 30th, 1966. Students and faculty continue to talk about the possibility of striking the following day. Speakers discuss how leaders have been singled out, the campus issues that students disagree with, the faculty's inaction, the willingness of graduate students to help with a strike, as well as reasons not to strike. The third speaker announces that bail has been set at $3300 per person for the three non-students who had been arrested. He presents the three demands for the strike: No police on campus, amnesty for participants in the demonstration, and student power on campus.
