Dear President John Wilson,
I cast
my ballot in favor of main-
taining Washington and Lee
University an all male
school. Admitting women would
only destroy a 235-year
tradition and not benefit
the University at all.

Very truly yours.

Mr. Paul G. Cavaliere:

Thanks for your note. I'm pleased to have your views recorded.
It is a complicated question and, as I discover, good men can come down
on either side of it.

Did you feel as strongly about the Law School decision? I'm curious
to learn from you whether you believe that decision made any sense or
whether it is one you regret. The Washington and Lee people on the Faculty
in the Law School seem pleased with the result. I'm not sure how one
ought to look at differences between the graduate and undergraduate ex-
perience in this connection and would welcome your further reflections
on this point.

Most sincerely,



John D. Wilson
President
