The students have met by themselves in numerous meetings in which they formulated their proposals. Their meetings with Dunlop and May helped them to determine just what the Faculty might be willing to accept, one member said.

Receptive

"They were very receptive," Douglass L. Warren '72. chairman of the Kirkland House Committee and another member of the group, said last night. "They were willing to listen to about anything we said."

Bierman said that Dunlop has taken charge in most of the meetings. "Lately we've been in this bargaining kind of position, and you know, the guy does it for a living. What can you do?" he said. "But, he added, they've been pretty good."

Asked whether members of the group all agreed that such a body was needed, Bierman said: "Whether or not it's needed doesn't especially matter too much. It's there. And the Faculty is absolutely adamant that it's going to punish people. Dunlop is adamant, anyway."

'Acceptable'

"What we hope to have is something that's acceptable to both groups - students and faculty," he said.

Dunlop said yesterday afternoon that he had found the discussions "??."

"I don't think we're very far apart," he said. "We're certainly closer now than we were ten weeks ago."
