These incidents may or may not have affected the students at South- eastern, but the effects were, still are and will be felt for years to come by millions of Americans. lVlany people contended that President Nixon was innocent of all charges made against him, while others demanded his immediate impeachment. Though many details of the Watergate scandal leaned pretty hard on the President, the American people had to accept the de- cisions made by the Supreme Court. Spiro Agnew's resignation was a great shock to millions ofAmericans. Feelings were that his resignation came about by the pressures of Watergate, which later un- covered the facts of his income tax evasion and the issues of kickbacks. The Watergate scandal and Agnew's resignation were very tragic circumstances, so the question of the time taken in the investigation and the effects it would have for the future was the issue.
