ON CAMPUS INTERVIEWS March 15th Pacifist urges Jews to speak out on Israel By GEORGEA KOVANIS Annexation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip would be disastrous to Israel, Economics Prof. Gur Offer, of Hebrew University in Jerusalem told about fifty students and community members gathered at the Hillel Foun- dation building last night. Offer, on sabbatical at Harvard University, said the major issue of con- cern to Israel is whether or not to annex the West Bank.. BUT, HE SAID, "the real issue is what will happen with the population.. . what should be done with the one and one-quarter million Arab population." Offer added that an- nexation of the West Bank would be "detrimental in every respect" to Israel. A member of the Israeli pacifist movement, Peace Now, Offer said he believes that if the West Bank is an- nexed, no Arab nation will ever sign a peace treaty with Israel. "The risk of a permanent state of war is a very heavy one by itself," he said. "If we annex the West Bank, this is going to put us in .. . a permanent state of war," he added. OFFER SAID the initiation of peace in the Middle East lies in the hands of the Arab population. "(Achieving peace) is 95 percent the job of the Arabs," he said. "We can see signs of what's going to happen if Arabs are granted citizen- ship)," Offer said. "There are two sets of laws in the West Bank: One for Jews and one for Arabs." He said giving citizenship to Arabs is not the key to solving the war in the Middle East. Offer urged everyone to study the issues surrounding peace in the Middle East. He said people should study the See ISRAELI, Page 5 Daily Photo by ELIZABETH SCOTT Gur Offer, a member of an Israeli pacifist organization, addresses students and community members at a lecture last night at the Hillel Foundation. State eyes black enrollment drop LANSING (UPI) - The State Board of Education is considering steps to deal with a decline in black student enrollments at Michigan colleges and universities. State School Superintendent Phillip Runkel, in a memorandum to the board, described the declines, rever- sing affirmative action progress, as "a serious problem." He added he also was concerned about "similar declines among Hispanic and Indian students." The board has received a report recommending establishment of pilot programs at both the high school and college level, but there remains some uncertainty about actual figures on enrollments. AT A MEETING in January, 1982, state education officials were presented with figures compiled by the NAACP, showing a decline in black enrollments from peak levels of the 1970s at the University, Michigan State University, and Wayne State University. The latest figures available to the department show minority enrollment at all four-year state colleges rose 3.9 percent between 1978 and 1980, an Education Department spokesman said. "I don't think there's any doubt (enrollments) are down" from the peak reached in the mid-1970s, he said, however. At that time, he said, enrollments were swollen by ex- soldiers returning from Vietnam. THE BOARD is being asked to set up a pilot study in a cross-section of school districts. It would include detailed reporting on drop-out rates, an evaluation of coun- seling services available to minority students and a determination of how high schools with "exemplary" records managed to hold down drop-out rates and achieve high college board scores. Also proposed is monitoring of enrollments by the department and seeking funds for a pilot program on at- tracting and retaining minority studen- ts at four-year institutions. This pilot program might include special campus visits for prospective students, a sum- mer school program to ease the tran- sition to college and financial rewards for institutions which retain students. Additionally recommended are development of a department handbook aimed at minority students and more direct communication with their paren- ts on the importance of higher education and what their children must do to get into college.

The Navy has more than 1,900 reactor-years of nuclear power experience - more than anyone else in America. The Navy has the most sophisti- cated nuclear equip- ment in the world. And the Navy operates over half of the nuclear reactors in America. With a nuclear program like that, you know the Navy also offers the most compre- hensive and sophisticated nuclear training. Every officer in the Nuclear Navy completes a full year of graduate level technical training. Outside the Navy, this kind of program would cost you thousands. In the Navy, you're paid while you learn. Then, as a nuclear-trained officer, you supervise highly trained personnel in the get them fast. Because in the Navy, as your knowledge grows, so do your responsibilities. Today's Nuclear Navy is one of the most challenging and reward- ing career choices a man can make. And that choice can pay off while you're still in school. Qualified juniors and seniors earn approximately $1,000 per month while they finish school. As a nuclear-trained officer, after 4 years with regular promotions and pay increases, you can be earning as much as $40,500. That's on top of a full benefits pack- age that includes medical and dental care, and 30 days' vacation earned each year. As a nuclear-trained officer, you also earn a place among this nation's most qualified and respected professionals.
