Graduate Schools Reporter
Undergraduate students had a
chance to look into their future last
night.
The University's School of Edu-
cation and four Michigan medical
and dental schools explained the ben-
efits of graduate school to undergrad-
uates at recruitment sessions in An-
gell Hall and the School of Educa-
tion building last night.
In addition to informing the stu-
dents about their programs, the re-
cruiters helped prepare prospective
students for interviews and applica-
tions.
At the medical and dental school
session admissions deans and current
students from Michigan, Wayne
State University, Michigan State
University and University of Detroit
spoke to about 50 prospective medi-
cal students.
First year LSA student Ariel
Smits, a prospective medical stu-
dent, said the session gave her
"exposure to the type of medical
schools in Michigan, what they have
to offer and what they require."
Connie D'Amato, an assistant
profesor in pathology and a member
of the admissions committee at the
University, said prospective medical
students should realize the admis-
sions committee has the students'
best interests in mind when they
make selections.
"I want to let them know we're
not a boogy-man out there," she
said.
She explained that the criteria

North ends testimony against Poindexter
WASHINGTON (AP) - Oliver
North testified yesterday that he
didn't "feel good" after ling to
Congress to conceal secret aid to the
Nicaraguan Contras even though he
was praised by his boss, John
Poindexter.
North concluded his testimony by
insisting that he violated no laws by
lying during the Aug. 6, 1986,
meeting at the White House with
members of House Permanent Select

Committee on Intelligence.
But the former National Security
Council aide told prosecutor Dan
Webb that he didn't "recall having
any emotion" when he received a
note from Poindexter after the
meeting that said: "Well done."
"When John Poindexter told you
'well done,' did you expect he had
been happy you had carried the
water?" Webb asked. "Did you think
you did well?"
"No, I've told the world I don't
feel good about that," the retired
Marine lieutenant colonel said, his
voice cracking with emotion.
Poindexter, a retired Navy rear
admiral who was President Reagan's
national security adviser-in 1986, is
,accused of obstructing congressional
inquiries into the U.S.-Iran arms
sales and the secret operation set up
to channel aid to the Nicaraguan
Contras.

North insisted that his lies to
Congiess were wiong. iot illegal.
"You thought you could go in
front of those 12 coiigressaien and
lie and lie and lie?" Webb asked,
raising his voice for the first time
while questioanig North.
"I was not under oath, I have
never lied, it was an informal
meeting," North said.
"Did you think this was a tea

him "you can handle it" when he
objected to going to the meeting.
But he balked at Webb's suggestign
that he was under orders to lie.
"I never thought it was a good
iUea to start the process of answering
their questions," North said.
"You're not going to change your
testimony that you gave this jury
two days ago to help your former
boss?" Webb asked.
"No sir," North said.
North said Poindexter was oneof
the few people who knew he lied,
"Did Ronald Reagan, George
Bush, the generals or the admirals,
did any of them send messages to
you that said 'well done' after you
lied to Congcess on Aug. 6, 19861"
Webb asked.
"No,' North said.
