RHA elects officers

By ELIZABETH ATKINS
Members of the Residence Halls
Association last night held
elections for executive officers, who
will take over April 1.
LSA sophomore Fouzia Kiani,
Helen Newberry Hall representative
for RHA, was elected president in a
vote of six-to-three against East
Quad representative Adam Waldo,
an LSA freshman. Kiani will
replace current president Becky
Lawrence, an LSA junior.
"I'm excited to work," said Kiani
after the elections. She said her
involvement with the RHA ad hoc
party policy committee, which

helped insititute more liberal party
guidelines, heightened her interest
in student leadership.
Kiani said she feels her
experience in dealing with housing
officials on the ad hoc committee
prepared her for the presidential
position. She said her goals during
the new term will be to maintain
professionalism and efficiency in
RHA's affairs with administrators
and during meetings, to encourage
member participation, and to
increase student awareness of RHA
and its functions.
Brian Sheehy, an engineering
sophomore and East Quad rep-

resentative, was elected vice
president in a eight-to-one vote over
LSA junior P.J. Petitpren, Martha
Cook's representative.
Sheehy will replace LSA
sophomore Mark Davalos, RHA's
current vice president.
Ken Andrysiak, an engineering
sophomore, ran unopposed for
secretary. He will replace the
current secretary, Dan Tobocman, a
freshman engineering student.
Carlene Garcia, a Stockwell
representative, ran for treasurer
unopposed and will replace LSA
freshman Nancy Moehlman.

DETROIT (AP) - Family and
friends of a suburban Detroit
missionary imprisoned in the South
African black homeland of Transkei
since Dec. 17 expressed relief and
gratitude following his release early
yesterday.
The State Department notified
U.S. Sen. Carl Levin's office
yesterday morning of the release of
the Rev. Casimir Paulsen, Levin
said.
Paulsen's sister, Valerie Bullock
of Dearborn, said the news came as
a relief -"that's to say the least."

"I just couldn't bleieve it when I
heard," said Bullock, who first heard
the news from her cousin in
Chicago who had been notified by
the State Department.
Paulsen is a Roman Catholic
missionary from Dearborn Heights,
where his order, the Marianhill
Order, is based. He has worked in
Africa since 1966 and has been in
Transkei since 1978.
His associates at the Marianhill
Order also expressed gratitude at his
release.
"We're tremendously relieved -

that's an understatement," said the
Rev. Aloysius Blonigen.
Szura and Blonigen said they
heard about Paulsen's release from
news organizations and had no
official confirmation. They said
they had not been contacted by
Paulsen but expected they will be
among "thousands" he will
eventually call.
Paulsen yesterday was in
Umtata, the capital of Transkei, and
was expected to go tomorrow
afternoon to Johannesburg.

The coalition also wants to know
whether the University will take
similar action if other incidents
arise.
According to University
Associate Vice President for
Student Services Thomas Easthope,
"Releasing the name (of the
student) serves no purpose. I'm not
sure the University would ever
release the name." He refused to
discuss what information might
eventually be released.
Students in the United Coalition
Against Racism plan to advance
their cause on legislative and
symbolic fronts.
Citing numerous racist incidents
on campus and the University's
failures to provide an adequate non-
racist atmosphere, UCAR members
said they will soon file a class
action civil rights lawsuit against

the unisuitan su vullu LWV an
shanties in the Diag this Friday.
On Saturday, UCAR members
plan to hold a teach-in at the
Michigan Union with workshops
on student activism, protests and
the law, and how the University
works.
Last week, UCAR members
gave acting President James
Duderstadt a list of 12 demands

designed to improve racial relations
at the University. UCAR members
demanded a response within two
weeks, at the next Board of Regents
meeting on March 19.
The week marks the 17th
anniversary of the Black Action
Movement (BAM) strike. The
BAM movement forced the
University to pledge funds to attain
ten percent black student
enrollment.

delivered in the past nine years,
including the one sent to Professor
McConnell two years ago, were
sent by the same man. There's no
doubt about that," he said.
McConnell and other University
professors do not feel especially
threatened by the mail-bombing
trend.
"The number of bombs has risen
by 50 percent nationwide in each of

the past two years. I -don't feel
threatened because lightning never
strikes the same place twice,"
McConnell said.
Director of Campus Safety Leo
Heatley said 11 bomb threats were
reported here in 1986, which is
average. This January, four bomb
threats were reported, though none
involved University professors. The
threats involved University-owned
housing.
