HUPD Chief Says Harvard Yard Encampment is Peaceful, Defends Students’ Right to Protest
A beer-can battle, started when some Princeton students let fly on the Johns Hopkins band at a recent lacrosse game, has led President Harold W. Dodds to declare a ban on all public drinking by Princetonians for an unspecified time.
The decree, announced last Thursday, was accompanied by a letter of instruction from Dean Godolphin to the college proctors, instructing them to turn in the name of any student seen in public with liquor, if he doesn't cooperate in disposing of it.
The dictum, according to the Daily Princetonian, does not apply to drinking in rooms or in beer-halls such as the revered Nassau Tavern. It is particularly aimed at the practice of throwing beer cans and other containers at participants in sporting events.
