Interviews with individuals present at the ASUC building before, during, and after the Navy table incident. Mike Lerner, a graduate student, describes the Navy table incident in good detail, giving a clear chronology of events. Professor Linden, a visiting law professor from Toronto, describes the frustration and lack of trust between students and the administration, the idealism of students versus the administration "trying to do their jobs," and describes the police incident. He says that faculty probably won't support student demands, but are concerned about the use of police. Frank Bardackey as well as three students interviewed together (Leni, Sandra, and Rod) and student Ray Neinstein all describe the Navy table and police incidents from their perspectives. A statement by Mike Parker of the steering committee of the GCC and a member of the strike committee is played. Finally, Colleen Goldstick, a member of Women for Peace who helped set up the anti-draft table, is interviewed about her experience.
