a' CHAIRMAN Mr. Terry Grim Student Union Committee Bowdoin College Brunswick, Maine 04011 c;
Dear Terry:
Barb said that I would hear from you in due time, so your invitation to speak at Bowdoin was not a surprise.
I am half-inclined to accept--it would provide an excuse to visit Barb and Bowdoin, and that is always a pleasure.
i My chief concern about speaking on nuclear matters at Bowdoin is whether we could expect a reasonable session, or would it turn out to be a Donny-brook? It is a controversial subject, views are strongly held, and I wonder whether your " fervent anti-nuclear factions" will be more interested in shouting me off the platform than in hearing whatever I have to say.
(Maine is too far to go to be shouted off a platform--I can easily arrange for that here.)
If I come to speak, it would be on regulation of commercial nuclear activities and the effects of Three Mile Island on our regulatory process.
I am, after all, a regulator and it is our business here to regulate nuclear power, not to sell it.
I would propose to talk for a while and then take questions.
I'm not sure Parent's Weekend would be a good time--it seems like a rather serious subject for that festive occasion. Also, I am not sure at this point about dates I could get away in the fall, so we would have to wait I
a while to fix a date. What day of the week do you prefer for these events?
Finally, on the subject of remuneration, I work a whole lot cheaper than p'
Mr. Haley. For frce, in fact, as long as I am an officer of the Federal l.
government.
F.
4 Let me know what you think and I'll consider the possibilities.
In any J-case, thanks for the invitation.
J' Sincerely, I
