Steal!
Call it what you will:
borrowing; an extended loan,
with no intention of return; a
rip-off. Regardless of the
terminology, it is stealing.
Consider if you will, the
following sitation. The house
you are living in suffers from a
lack of furniture. A decision is
made that a bookcase is needed
to fill some of the empty space.
Without thinking, another
decision is made: to go to the
nearest construction site and
take the materials that are
necessary to build just such a
bookcase. So this is exactly what
is done and you return home
with the materials in your car.
Presumably, end of situation;
but, not so!
Consider the implications and
repercussions of just such an
event. First, you have
committed a sin of omission, a
lapse of conscience so to speak.
You have failed to look upon
what you were doing as morally
wrong. You would not take
what does not belong to you
from friends, so why is this
situation any different? It is not
(as your conscience should tell

you). Secondly, you have
committed a criminal offense. It
does not matter that it might be
a first offense and that you
would not do it again. What does
matter is that you have
trespassed on private property,
have willfully stolen what does
not belong to you and for this
you can be legally prosecuted.
Do you know what this means as
far as your future is concerned?
For example, consider, if you
are planning to teach, what
school is going to hire you? You
have a criminal record. Are you
planning on entering into
government service. If you are
you might as well forget this
also. You will not get a job with
a felony charge against you. Is
this how you want to utilize
your college education?
All this, for a bookcase? Is it
worth it? Having been personally
faced with the grim prospects of
such a situation we tell you, it is
not.
It is not a child’s world out
there; let’s not act like children.

We are also going to send a
letter to each faculty member
which will include: 1) a detailed
schedule of the week’s activities;
times, places, speakers, films,
etc.; 2) our purpose for initiating
such a teach-in; and 3) a request
that they (the faculty) involve
themselves and their classes in
the week’s activities. We feel
that the teach-in will be well
worth the involvement of all, for
the subject matter-oppression-is

relevant to each and everyone of
us, directly or indirectly. We
further feel that Capitol
Campus, the free-spirited
endeavor of the Pennsylvania
State University should become
a more relevant institution for
all those concerned by direct
involvement in the major issues
of the day, oppression being one
of the most important of these
issues. We are asking for your
support and involvement
through participation in this
effort in order to better
understand oppression, not only
as it affects each of us as
individuals, but as it affects our
brothersand sisters of the human
race

Twice I have risen from the
tomb.
Once for man’s sins and
merciless deeds;
Once for man’s forgiveness,
child’s needs.
Then came the third time,
The total obliteration
