Yale’s Singapore Venture
The Alumni Discuss
November/December 2010
As a member of the Class of 1970, a significant portion of my “liberal” education at Yale was in the streets of New Haven, protesting an awful war and supporting President Brewster, who had the moral courage to speak the uncomfortable truth about the inability of certain black activists to get a fair trial in New Haven. Frankly, I am shocked that Yale would even consider entering into an agreement where, according to your recent article, “public demonstrations are out, and criticism of the government outside the classroom is not advisable.” I can’t imagine Yale agreeing to rules that would have silenced both us and President Brewster.
