Kozol: Homeless don't

need therapy, but

BY ANNA BONDOC
As part of an effort to promote
students' "thinking about the world
outside the University," author
Jonathan Kozol yesterday critiqued
the writings of three students on
American priorities and discussed his
own efforts to combat homelessness.
Kozol's visit to the School of
Education was the highlight of the
MSA-sponsored Third Annual Un-
dergraduate Colloquium Series,
which ran the competition for stu-
dent papers.
Kozol critiqued two student en-
tries, which were read by their au-
thors. LSA juniors Jim Brunberg
and Cathy Shap co-authored a paper
that explored the concept of a
"collective morality in America,"
while LSA senior Rollie Hudson

entered two poems entitled "Power
Structure" and "Complacency
Reigns."
Brunberg and Shap's paper criti-
cized "blind acceptance of a given
morality" and warned of the dangers
of losing one's individual sense of
moral duty to that of the collective.
Hudson's poems depicted affluent
college students who cry, "It's not
fair" to political injustice in South
America, yet have "enough clothes
to clothe ten people."
Afterwards, Kozol praised Hud-
son's poetry as "confrontational" and
said Brunberg and Shap's was
"highly provocative." Hudson is a
Daily Opinion Page staffer.
Kozol also spoke on the duality

justice'
of his own life - lobbying for
public housing with affluent mem-
bers of Congress, while living for
almost a year in the Martinique Ho-
tel, a homeless shelter for 2,000
people in New York City. Since
1980, federal housing budgets have
dropped from $32 billion to $7 bil-
lion, he said, and that "we have our
own third world in every American
city."
Afterwards, Hudson said Kozol's
speech promoted an exchange of
ideas, the first step in solving na-
tional problems. Brunberg said peo-
ple's refusal to accept responsibility
for social problems causes compla-
cency.

Tests prove Shroud of Turin

not the burial
TURIN, Italy (AP) - The Shroud of Turin is only
about 700 years old and cannot be the authentic burial
cloth of Jesus Christ as believed by millions over the
centuries, the archbishop of Turin said Thursday.
Cardinal Anastacio Ballestrero's announcement that
he accepted the results of dating tests conducted by
three laboratories ended a debate over the origin of the
cloth that has raged for hundreds of years.
But another mystery remains unsolved: how the
shroud came to bear the image of what scientists have
called a real human form of a whipped and crucified
man.
Rejecting attempts to brand the shroud a fake,
Ballestrero stressed that for the Roman Catholic

cloth of Christ
church, the linen cloth remains a venerated object and a
powerful symbol of faith.
"The church believes in the image and not in the
history, because this image of Jesus Christ is very in-
teresting and the people believe very much in Jesus",
he said.
Ballestrero told a news conference at the headquarters
of his archdiocese that carbon-14 test by labs in the
United States, Britain and Switzerland concluded with
95 percent accuracy that the shroud could not be more
than 728 years old, dating it to between 1260 and
1390.
"I see no reason for the church to put these results
in doubt," the cardinal said.
