- Summary:
- In 1969 a group of University of Chicago students occupied the Administration Building to protest the firing of Professor Marlene Dixon. As a result, 42 students were expelled and 81 suspended.

Includes footage of the occupation as well as the subsequent workshop as the students explain their motivations and the discussion that results.
