[Letter from The Committee of Correspondence, 1944]
Letter from Students' Association (University of Texas). Committee of Correspondence discussing concerns about the policies of the Board of Regents of the University of Texas, alleging that they endanger the University's development by stifling freedom of thought and expression. It references a previous statement by President Homer P. Rainey and elaborates on instances where faculty members were reprimanded for their opinions, notably three economics teachers dismissed for actions during a patriotic mass meeting. The letter warns about the repercussions of such actions, including potential censure by national academic organizations and compares the situation to political interference at the University of Georgia. The conclusion urges Texans to familiarize themselves with the situation and to advocate for the University by contacting state representatives.
