“Still Right” is an initiative by The Observer to create a historical archive of Observer articles since 1983. Throughout each month we will publish articles from past issues that we believe are of particular historical relevance. We hope you enjoy reading these pieces.
This archive will be a historical look at both The Observer and at the Boston College community. We hope it becomes a valuable research tool.
This project has been made possible by the University Archives in the John J. Burns Library at Boston College.
To start this series we are publishing BC’s Faculty: Decidedly Liberal by John Birkmeyer in the February 8, 1984 issue of the Observer (Vol. 3, No. 1).
