WARNE: Yes. The Chancellor was an Iowa medical doctor, a bit of a poet with medical training. He had a dream of a great cathedral that was going to make Pitt into a new institution, a leader in the world. The spirit of Pittsburgh was going to be incorporated into this structure. Chancellor Bowman set himself on a course of limiting academic freedom. The students had a Liberal Club and their meetings were broken up. Harry Elmer Barnes wanted to speak there,and they ushered him off the campus with the police. Clarence Darrow and Arthur Garfield Hays and others were banned from the buildings. It was a struggle for those of us who joined with the Civil Liberties Union in trying to secure the most elementary academic freedom. We encountered troubles with the administration for stirring the waters. I was ordered not to write on the coal strike for the Pittsburgh Press. It was a place to get out of. And I must say that the Amherst invitation came at an opportune moment.
