Description
Views of the San Francisco State College campus and of white and African-American students engaged in classroom debate. Students are seen congregating outside and a ransacked chemistry lab is shown in close up. After more general views around the campus a member of faculty announces to reporters that an Ad Hoc Group will go on strike if George Murray isn't re-instated and that a collection will be made for Murray's defense fund. They feel the actions of Chancellor Dumke may be unconstitutional. Another member of faculty expresses his misgivings about the Ad Hoc Group's methods and timing.
