oh and i do nto think that, in his later life, mario savio necessarily "sold out." the free speech movement, which he was a significant participant, was about rejecting the policies of the berkeley administration. there was not an anti-faculty belief. 

the higher ups at the university objected to allowing students to demonstrate and drum up support for off campus and especially out of state political issues. particularly the voter registration and anti-discrimination work in mississippi and the rest of the south. the school also had a strictly two party affiliation policy, so projects (demonstrations, tabeling, etc) had to go through either the democrat or republican clubs. 

there was faculty support of the FSM because their rights were infringed upon as well, (the loyalty oath, etc). they were being used to keep the students cogs for the regents. they should have risen up sooner, sure. 

i think that if anything, savio becoming a professor, was rather logical. he was not fighting against all authority (whether or not i believe he should have been is another issue). the movement was a fight against abuse of power 

and abraham lincoln is a tainted, tainted man.
