And now, for a brief report...
Rather brief, actually. Very sorry but it's late. I'm tired, and I have students to torture tomorrow so you will just have to wait. But you can have this:
Hundreds Attend Teach-In
(San Diego) At least two hundred people came to a teach-in on the currect situation in Palestine and Lebanon, held at the Four Points Hotel. The featured panel included a well-known Arab-American artist, the director of the Center for Arabic and Islamic Studies at San Diego State, as well as several internationally known lawyers.
