PP Employees Convicted

Title

PP Employees Convicted

Description

On April 14, 1969, several non-academic workers met with Chancellor Caldwell in his office to discuss the problems with female maids working in male dormitories. The employees did not leave the office when asked to do so, and were eventually arrested for trespassing. Twelve of these employees were convicted of trespassing and ordered to pay various fines. The convictions were a continuation of the struggle between university administration and Physical Plant division employees, and an instance that garnered more support for the workers.
