I've just learned that President Nielson has elected to postpone the adoption of the new student publications directive until such time as it can be evaluated by a committee of three faculty, students, and staff. Dr. Foreman has been reinstated, and the Bagpipe will continue publication without prior restraint, at least for the time being.
This is a very positive step. I'm a bit ambivalent about the idea of a committee, but the fact that the new policy has been at least postponed is quite a reprieve.

Actually, that's not true. I don't think we made much difference at all. I suspect all the difference was made by actual students taking meaningful risks. But it's good to know that sort of gesture still works at the ol' Marriage Mill.
