As a result, the University of Utah is considering withdrawing the accreditation for the AC, so it may cease its activities as an organi- zation. In view of the above, it does not appear at the present time that counterintelligence activities with respect to the AC are advisable. In addition to this, the AC during the Summer of 1967 was essential- ly inactive. This organization and its leaders will be closely observed for counterintelligence potenti- alities.

In April, 1968, it staged a protest demonstration ainst the personnel recruiting activities of Dow Chemical on that campus. In connection with this demonstration, its members abided by the agreements which had been reached with the administration of the university pertaining to the demonstration. It is possible that future activities could lead to the de- sirability and need for counterintelligence, but this is not deemed advisable at this time. - 2 - SU 100-10351 This office has no individuals in its territory who could be considered as key activists at this time, accord- ing to the understanding of this office of this term. - In view of the above, it does not appear that this office is in a position to recommend the implementation of the Counterintelligence Program at this time. Normally New Left activities decrease perceptibly during summer months in this area because of the reduced activities on the campuses of colleges and universities.

Action By College Administrators There have been no incidents in this area which can be used at this time to show the value of a firm stand by college administrators toward elements of the New Left. In the incidences which have occurred in this division where confrontation was possible, the representatives of the New Left have discussed the matter with the school adminis- trators and then have abided by the results of the discussions. This was true in the case of the Student Freedom Party and its demonstration at the Utah State University, Logan, Utah. It was true in connection with the planned demonstration against Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) by the April Committee, Salt Lake City, Utah. This demonstration against CIA was initially to have taken place on the campus of the University of Utah, but later took place in downtown Salt Lake City, since the CIA representative interviewing possible applicants for employment with CIA changed the location of the interviews.

There have been no allegations of police brutality by members of the New Left since Salt Lake City letter of 6/13/68. (2) Immorality. There has been no additional information per- taining to immorality since Salt Lake City letter of 6/13/68. (3) Action By College Administrators.

These appear to be related to document routing or classification. No photographs, redacted information, or surveillance-specific visual elements are present on this page. This declassified FBI document is a memorandum from the Salt Lake City field office, dated June 13, 1968. It concerns counterintelligence program activities related to internal security and the disruption of the "New Left." The document contains official stamps, including "OPTIONAL FORM NO. 80" at the top, indicating it's a standard government form, and "JUL 9 1968" with "Salt Lake City" likely indicating a date stamp and field office identifier for receipt. There are several handwritten annotations, including a circled "FROM" and "SAC, SALT LAKE CITY (100-10351)" on the left, and what appear to be routing codes and a date stamp ("JUN 15 1968") at the bottom right. A sketch of a soldier is present on the bottom left, and some areas of the page are noticeably redacted, particularly in the middle right portion, suggesting sensitive information. College Administrators. There have been no instances involving the New Left with college administrators since Salt Lake City letter of 6/13/68.

A specific assignment has been made in this office for the obtaining of adequate informant coverage of the AC. This will include contact with Armed Service intelligence agencies, as suggested by the Bureau by airtel of 6/6/68, entitled "INVES- TIGATION OF THE NEW LEFT." In connection with the development of informants, counterintelligence potentialities will be carefully evaluated. Coverage of the SFP has been obtained through estab- lished sources in 'nonacademic positions at USU, Logan, Utah. There is no certainty that this group will continue during the school year 1968-69. A specific assignment has been made for the obtaining of suitable informant coverage in the event this. group continues. On the basis of past indications, it appears the potential for violence at universities or colleges in Utah is not great. The only two such institutions which have New Left activities are the University of Utah, Salt Lake City, and USU, Logan, Utah. Up to the present time those associated with such activities have been willing to abide by agreements with administration officials at these schools with respect to the extent of the activities in which the organizations can engage. This has resulted in peaceful demonstrations where demonstra- tions took place, and there have been no attempts to take over buildings or otherwise engage in open confrontation. There are no presently visible ringleaders who appear to lean in the other direction. The fact that [REDACTED] attended the Students For A Democratic Society (SDS) convention in Michigan early in June, 1968, obviously raises the question with respect to violence, since SDS has been prominent in violence at other universities. [REDACTED] has not in the past been known to advocate the use of vio- lence. His activities will be carefully watched so that it can be determined whether the effect of the SDS Convention has changed his thinking in this respect. - 2 - CO ☆ UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTLE FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION In Reply, Please Refer to File No. Salt Lake City, Utah July 2, 1968 NEW LEFT ACTIVITY- UTAH STATE UNIVERSITY LOGAN, The page is a typed document, likely from an FBI field office, with a handwritten "SU-200-10351" identifier at the top left.

On March 29, 1968, SFP sponsored a demonstration on the Utah State University Campus to protest the presence of a Dow Chemical Company recruiter on the campus. The demonstration was generally orderly and was followed by a panel discussion. The demonstration and the discussion opposed the manufacturing and use of napalm on moral grounds. Two faculty members participated in the panel discussion. SFP ran a slate of candidates for stu- dent offices in May, 1968, but all were unsuccessful.
