LYNN AND FCC

To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

There was a misleading note of finality in your recent story about Federal City College.

The revelations about FCC that have appeared in the Washington Post and other local newspapers in the past two weeks have generated an enormous indignation in the student body, in the black community of the District of Columbia, and on Capitol Hill. This indignation has prompted the Board of Trustees to take a closer interest in the day-to-day operation of the college than heretofore, and their interest in turn could conceivably encourage the president and the provost to take back some of the authority they have surrendered to the faculty.

Although I will be going to Johns Hopkins next fall as professor of History, I expect to maintain my interest in Federal City College, and possible even some kind of formal relationship. I continue to believe as I did a year ago that FCC is one of the keys to the future of this troubled city. Kenneth S. Lynn   Washington, D.C.
