During the strike regular classes were to be boycotted and students were not
supposed to go into the buildings. In any case, regular classes were
canceled for the rest of the term. Friendly faculty (and others, such as
peace activists and union organizers) gave "Liberation classes" on the lawns
in front of the classroom buildings, usually discussing issues that were
relevant to the strike. Other faculty who who required students to complete
their coursework to earn a P conducted classes on the lawn too, or in
their apartments, or other places. I confess, I completed one of my classes
for a professor who insisted on it: Linguistics professor
Erica García,
only because I had a lot of respect for her in spite of her opposition to the
strike; she was one of the best teachers I ever had.
