The new version also includes a sentence-stemming from an amendment by Arthur A. Maass, Thomson Professor of Government-designed to further separate the issues of Faculty and student culpability.
The sentence reads, "No violation of the rights of members of the University,
nor any failure to meet responsibilities, should be interpreted as justifying any violation of rights of members of the University."
Abram Bergson, professor of Economics, proposed an amendment to the new version of the resolution, aimed at a sentence reading, "In making decisions which concern the community as a whole or any part of the community, officers are expected to consult with those affected by the decision."
Bergson proposed the addition of the words "whenever circumstances permit" after the phrase "officers are expected."
The amendment was defeated by a voice vote.
