(Continued from Page 1) intimidating us," Weinstein said, of the police. He said police officers harassed the protesters and beat some of them. "THE MOST important thing for me is that we were doing it (civil disobedience) to liberate the peoples of the world. .' The pain we went through was nothing compared with what's been going on in South Africa." Also on Monday, protesters at Columbia University called off their blockade of the school's administration building but said the fight for divest- ment is "definitely not over." "We thought that we've stated our message 20,000 times over and we've already accomplished our goal, that is Court date set for protesters to get people thinking about apartheid, to Hamilton Hall as cause for and to get people to associate the name the blockade.

Students callfor changes in class syllabi (Continued from Page 1) that professorswere generally recep- tive to the handouts. There were exceptions, of course. One protester said a history professor had given the leaflet back to her with the comment "Are you willing to sacrifice quality for equality?" THE GROUP said their next move is to go to the curriculum meeting in the fall. The meeting is a forum for debate, and covers issues such as syllabi for more blacks and women." new courses.PRFSO JonKotEgls Brenda Flanagan, an English PROFESSOR John Knott, English teaching assistant and winner of a 1985 department chairman, said he felt Hopwood award, said she supports the there is a lot of variation in women and rapiers'efforts. minority representation in English class syllabi.

Knott said he thought the groups's decision to voice its concerns at a staff curriculum meeting was a good idea, but that it was "unlikely they would try to legislate anything on the matter." Visiting English Prof. Donna Landry, who teaches at Princeton university, said "Michigan is more progressive than other institutions I've seen, but they've got a long way to go." r an end to said the een made ing. continue, ude efforts nencement ned doesn't Scholarship money is available for the bizarre only (Continued from Page 1) allowed to be married to benefit from the award. "Sometimes they're irate," Papish said of the inquirers, "But I say, 'Here's the will - what can wedo?" Papish speculated that Stone was thinking of women who had to battle financial and social barriers to go into research when she set up the fellowship. "AT THE TIME, even more so than now, it was financially difficult for un- married female scholars to devote themselves to research," Papish said. "(Stone) must have felt that unmarried women between 25 and 35 were the ones who needed help." The 1984 Mary Isabel Sibley Fellowship went to Maura Daly, a post- doctoral student at Notre Dame, who says the restrictions "didn't bother me at all, since it was perfect for me." The fellowship has allowed Daly to take a leave of absence from her teaching position at Notre Dame in or- der to write a book about a French philosopher. She said she saw a bulletin board announcement publicizing the fellowship and decided to apply. "THE LESS well-known the scholar- ship is, the better," Daly said. Scholarships like Daly's may not be well publicized, but they aren't im- possible to find if one is willing to spend a day browsing through books con- taining lists of private funding sources. Such books can be found in the Graduate Library, the Undergraduate Library, and the Office of Career Plan- ning and Placement. Money is available for the average undergraduate students, though the scholarship provider usually stipulates that a student have a related interest. The National Rifle Association, for example, doles out scholarships to students who are interested in resear- ching hunter safety or sports medicine. And the International Atlantic Salmon Foundation will give up to $3,000, but asks that the recipient be a North American resident "seeking to improve their knowledge or skills in Atlantic salmon biology, management, or related fields." BUT A LARGE number of the grants listed are targeted exclusively at post graduate and older students. The trick here again is to seek out the scholarships. The Simmons School of Embalming and Mortuary Science in Syracuse, New York, for instance, rarely advertises its grants in high schools because most mortuary science students are in their late 20s, according to Janece Lafferty, an instructor at the school. Rather than advertise, she said school administrators wait for in- terested students to inquire. Mortuary science, she added, "is a career choice made mostly by people more mature - as you can imagine."

The University of Michigan believes that educational and employment decisions should be based on individuals' abilities and qualifications and should not be based on irrelevant factors or personal characteristics which have no connection with academic abilities or job performance. Among the traditional factors which are generally "irelevant" are race, sex, religion, and national origin. It is the policy of The University of Michigan that an individual's sexual orientation be treated in the same manner. Such a policy ensures that only relevant factors are considered and that equitable and consistent standards of conduct and penformance are applied. Any University of Michigan employee having a complaint of discrimination because of sexual orientation should notify her/his immediate supervisor or the Staff and Union Relations Office in the appropriate personnel service center. A student should notify the Affirmative Action Coordinator in her/his school or college or the Ombudsperson in the Office of the Vice President for Student Services. At any time, a student or employee niay call the Affirmative Action Office or the Human Sexuality Office for counseling and advice. It should be noted that this policy does not apply to the University's relationships with outside organizations, including the federal government, the military, and ROIC. To insure that this policy is known, understood, and implemented throughout the University, a U-M Task Force on Sexual Orientation was created recently by the president with twenty members appointed from the University community. Students, faculty, and staff members may communicate any information, ideas, or proposals on how to prevent discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation at. The University of Michigan, as follows: You may communicate with the U-M Task Force on Sexual Orientation by letter, informal note, or telephone call to Brian Clapham, 764-3423, Affirmative Action Office, 108 Fleming Building; or to Laura Sanders and Jim Toy, 763-4186, Human Sexuality Office, 3116-3118 Michigan Union.
