It was during that incident that Bok ordered coffee and donuts sent to the library for the students who occupied it.

Sacks, who is also Dane Professor of Law, teaches constitutional law and the legal process. He said yesterday he will continue teaching "half-time" and that he will continue to give his course on the legal process.

At age 50, Sacks has been a member of the Law faculty since 1952. He became professor of Law in 1955 and Dane Professor in 1969. After graduating from City College of New York magna cum laude in 1940, he received his LL. B. magna cum laude from Harvard in 1948.

Sacks served as law clerk to U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals Justice Augustus N. Hand for a year after graduation from the Law School, and then clerked for Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter from 1949 to 1950.

Also at yesterday's meeting, the Corporation confirmed the appointment of Robert Shenton, registrar of the College, and the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, as secretary to the President and Fellows and secretary to the Board of Overseers.

Shenton succeeds Sargent Kennedy '28, secretary of the governing boards since 1965, who is retiring on August 31. Kennedy, 63, asked the Corporation for early retirement in January.

Shenton succeeded Kennedy once before in 1965, when Kennedy moved from registrar to become secretary to the governing boards. Before that, Shenton had served for three years as assistant to the registrar.

From 1967 to 1969, Shenton was secretary of the Faculty, and last year he served as administrator for the Fellows in the search for a new president.

Shenton, 46, is a graduate of Stanford and of the Stanford MBA program. He also spent two years in the Harvard MBA program before deciding to concentrate instead in History. He earned a Ph. D. in History here in 1962.
