I think faculty has the responsibility for evaluating courses and the results thereof they can use to monitor themselves." Although Johnson said he thinks the course evaluation concept is a good one, he added, "I really don't think that that's a primary function of MSA." Breakstone said he disagrees. "I see MSA primarily as an advocacy body. for student needs. As this is one of the fun- damental needs of students that is not being addressed by the University, MSA is making this one of its major projects." CURRENTLY, 15 CENTS of the $2.92 per term MSA fee assessment goes to the course evaluation program. That fund has not been tapped until now. LSA Dean Billy Frye said he strongly supports the use of evaluations in ad- ministrative decision-making.

Rather, Powell said the new round of talks would be held "to review the progress and pace of autonomy negotiations for the West Bank and Gaza." Carter invited Begin and Sadat to ashington in separate telephone calls yesterday, Powell said, and they both accepted. IN JERUSALEM, Begin said in an Israel Radio interview that he would be in Washington sometime between April 9 and 15, but after Sadat. Powell took pains to make clear that (he meetings would not replace the on- going autonomy negotiations, which are being held to resolye one of the .thorniest problems in the Middle East Wispute.

Powell said there was no reluctance to three-way talks, but that it was "not the intent here" that the individual meetings would lead to.a summit con- ference. Although the relationship between Sadat and Begin was severely strained during the 13-day Camp David summit conference, they have appeared to be on friendly terms during a series of state visits each has made to the other's nation. The Camp David summit in Septem- ber 1978 led to Carter's trip to Israel and Egypt last March and the peace agreements setting up the negotiations. I I r IAttention Collectors!
