Should "accorded" be "accorded to"? Because I think of "accord" as "give".

. q7 X$ x, m5 n: W" X- U# yThis is a hard one, LQZ. I don't think that the sentence you've quoted is incorrect, but I don't think that your suggested revision would be wrong either. I would say that the answer has something to do with the fact that "accorded" forms part of a noun clause in the NYT's sentence.
5 s$ Q9 a' T& E5 Y$ u"Respect is accorded to her by the students." - fine
( I A9 X: t* v"Respect is accorded her by the students." - somewhat unidiomatic
) I/ M% W: U3 ~7 `; H- ~- _"She enjoys the respect accorded to her by the students." - fine" U# o* N T* W1 q8 r4 ^
"She enjoys the respect accorded her by the students." - I find this acceptable4 D) W" j1 J! z8 I' l
In other words, the bare participle of "accorded"--here used as an adjective--functions differently from the participle as part of a passive construction.
