To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

I find myself in the particularly galling position of sharing a belief, as an independent thinker, with a group. The belief is the immorality of ROTC and the group is SDS. The latest move on the part of SDS has left me in a quandry. On the one hand, I support the very issues which prompted the occupation of University Hall and I feel compelled as a "supposedly" moral, rational member of our fluid society to cast my vote in favor of the removal of ROTC from its present status on campus. And yet I am paralyzed by a desire not to rally to the black-white-and-red flag, the symbol of an organization with which I am not in complete concord. As a result, I probably will not sit in and I shall continue to ponder the issue of my own integrity vs. my own integrity. I know I speak for many. Mark Bender '71
