Recalling Goheen’s Finest Hour

This would be a good time for PAW to commission a serious piece on the strike spring of 1970. Bob Goheen ’40 *48, in that turbulent moment, was everything that presidents today aren’t. If you don’t know the story of the great meeting in Jadwin Cage on May 4, 1970, it’s worth a read — probably in PAW of the same vintage. Goheen was truly remarkable in a hundred ways, but the way he kept the wheels on the car that month was probably his finest hour.

Editor’s note: Read more in “A Life at Princeton,” PAW’s Nov. 6, 2006, profile of Robert Goheen ’40 *48.
