The "Yes, but" syndrome,
she said, eventually "robs
the Holocaust of its
uniqueness and its capacity
to offer the world ethical,
moral, or political lessons
.. It reduces the Holocaust tc
a merely relative evil."
There is no doubt,
however, that CODOH
benefited greatly from the
publicity surrounding the
advertisement. Even if cam-
pus papers did not publish
the advertisement, several
agonized publicly over the
decision, giving CODOH
free publicity.
"The campuses were used,
and the liberal ideology was
manipulated," said the
ADL's Jeffrey Ross.
Faculty members at the
University of Michigan were
angered not only by the
publication of the adver-
tisement, but the implicit
approval of CODOH's right
to advertise by University
President James
Duderstadt.
"We are dismayed but not
entirely surprised that
students, in their desire to
practice a much-valued
`fairness,' might be lured
into thinking there exists a
legitimate alternative opi-
nion concerning those facts,"
wrote 12 U-M faculty in ear-
ly December.
"Mr. Duderstadt's 'open-
mindedness' shows a lamen-
table absence of moral stan-
dards," the faculty letter
continued.
CODOH clearly was
helped by another burning
campus issue: political cor-
rectness. On many college
campuses, students and pro-
fessors regularly debate
whether cultural and racial
sensitivities are offended by
academic subject matter,
language and speech.
Because political correct-
ness often yields ques-
tionable complaints —for
example, at Smith College
students were warned
against "lookism," or valu-
ing beauty as a human
feature, in their student
guidebooks. Political cor-
rectness has elicited a
counter-reaction against any
demand for sensitivity,
regardless of the grounds of
the slight.
Several Jewish campus
leaders said revisionists
played one side of the PC
debate against another,
therefore freezing any
outright dismissal of their
claims.
"Part of what this adver-
tisement did was show that
the standard of sensitivity is
not uniformly applied," said

The Patient-Doctor
Relationship
Helen Naimark, MSW
Executive Director
The patient-doctor relation-
ship is a very serious concern
to Seniors. Several years ago,
Jewish Federation Apart-
ments, Inc. initiated a 12-
week program between resi-
dent doctors at Sinoi Hospital
and JFA residents. It was an
enlightening experience. The
group concluded that build-
ing a trusting patient-doctor
relationship was vital. These
are some recommendations:
THE RESPONSIBILITIES
OF PATIENTS
• Before visiting your doc-
tor, write down all your ques-
tions and details of when
and how your problem
started.
• Bring all prescription and
non-prescription medicines
with you. Be truthful if you did
not take all that was
prescribed.
• Ask the name of medi-
cines, what they are for and
what side effects may
happen.
• Ask for pamphlets ex-
plaining your problem.
• If you have had a reac-
tion to a medication, how-
ever slight, describe it to your
doctor. There may be a dif-
ferent treatment available.
• You know your body
best. If you see any changes,
don't be afraid to report
them. Early treatment often
prevents a larger problem
later.

THE RIGHTS OF PATIENTS
• The right to have your
questions answered.
• The right to ask your doc-
tor to speak louder and/or
slower.
• The right to know what
plans your doctor has for
treatment and what if any,
risks there are.
• The right to change doc-
tors or to seek another
opinion.
• It is not necessarily your
right to be seen promptly. If
it bothers you to wait a long
time every time, you could
consider changing doctors.
At the end of the Program,
the doctors were aware that
while many of their Senior
patients' physical problems
may not be curable, improv-
ing their quality of life should
be an important goal.
