The above quote is from Leroy Stoddard (Class of 1967). Read the full memory below:

At the library dedication I was vaguely aware that there were students opposed to what the Rockefellers represented. Was it Nelson or another family member who led the family delegation?

Four years later I had a chance to shake Nelson’s hand at an event in New Haven and refused.

At around the same time as the dedication several Delta Kappa Epsilon brothers grabbed a bearded student, pulled him into some shrubbery, and roughly cut off his beard.
