The Housing Division and Office of Residence Education are pro- moting the Faculty Meal Program through brochures and posters telling students to feel free to invite their professors for residence hall meals. The professors' meals are free. Housing Program Director Robin Sarris hopes this venture will "personalize (the) individual exper- ience" of the student. Increased in- formal student-faculty contact is meant to "blend the learning in the classroom with the learning outside the classroom," she said. Sarris said the goals of the Faulty Meal Program are two-fold: students are given the opportunity to meet individually with their professors, while faculty members are encour- aged to tour the students' home environment. Students taking advantage of the Faculty Meal Program need only to seize the initiative and forward an invitation. Faculty members may receive the guest meal ticket at the residence hall's front desk. History Professor Rhoads M phey said the Faculty Meal Progr is not a new idea.

The local action is part of a na- tional boycott including 35 law schools in the Law Students Coalition for Worker's Rights and is coordinated by Frontlash, the youth branch of the AFL-CIO. Although the organization has compiled a list of 17 "union-busting" firms, only five of them are interviewing at Michigan this year. According to Frontlash Director Joel Klaverkamp, the firms advise company managers to employ psy- chological scare tactics to prevent organization. "They tell employees that unions are violent, corrupt, evil institutions that are only out for your money," said Klaverkamp. He added that some firms tell corporations to hire more women because of their "docile" nature. The Labor Relations Act, Klaverkamp asserted, is difficult to enforce especially under the previous and current administrations. A. Samuel Cook, a senior partner in the Baltimore law firm Venable, Baetjer, Howard, and Civiletti - one of the firms being boycotted, has written a four-page response denying the "union-busting" accusa- tions. He said, however, the AFL- CIO is doing him a favor by keeping his firm on the boycott list. If law students feel uncomfortable working with management then he suggests they not waste time interviewing with his firm. Cook contended that his firm can be held to the highest ethical stan- dards, and said, "When (the) union's own staffs try to organize they have engaged in illegal, unfair labor Calvin and Hobbes H4{o ID YOU I f LQ MAW QUItz?

Mike Maes, an engineerin sophomore, intends to ask hi professor to lunch when the big exam approaches. He said the Faculty Meal Program "gives me the chance to ask questions to prepare for the exam, in a sort of very informal office hours, only better because, without the professor's work nearby, I'll have his focused attention." Students may invite an4 instructor to participate in the Faculty Meal Program, including professors, TAs, or lecturers. practices." Despite the efforts of the guild, Venable, Baetjer, Howard, and Civiletti had a full day of interviews last Thursday. "I understand why some of th students boycotted them, but I don'' agree with the reasons," said law student Jane Boland, who inter- viewed with the firm. "I'm not en- tirely in favor of unions." Another law school student said she was unaware of the boycott. "You hear different things, and you can't keep them all straight," she added. The idea for such a boycott origi* nated in 1984 at Harvard University Law School as the brainchild of Michael Dinnerstein, a student at the time. In 1986, more than 200 Harvard law students signed a peti- tion in which they agreed not to in- terview or accept positions at a number of "union-busting" firms. gotten in just because they are girls, they haven't even ID'd some oo them." "You can get a fake ID for $40 to $50," said Jason White, first-year LSA student, "But I wouldn't, there's always frat parties." Using a fake ID is a misdemeanor and is punishable by a $100 fine and/or 90 days in jail. Suspension o the individual's driver's license is also possible. Federal governments. The "new town within a city" concept was highlighted in the 1987 Detroit strategic planning project. Young has touted the idea for several years. "This is hope," said attorney David Baker Lewis, who helped draft the strategic planning project three years ago. " I don't think all the ideas are feasible or would be em- braced, but it's a start." Col, Andrew Duncan, assistant director for information at the Inter- national Institute of Strategic Stud- ies, endorsed what he called a scatter- shot search for peaceful solution be- ing pursued by individuals and groups in the Arab world and the West.

Questions to parties involved in the proposal were referred to Michigan National Chair Robert Mylod, who refused to comment on it, the Detroit News said. Several specifics were undeter- mined, including how the project would be financed. The Developers said they would need complete coop- eration with the city, state and he said, in which Iraq would with- draw in return for agreement to hold an international conference to rede- fine Kuwait's boundaries, give Iraq access to the sea and redistribute Kuwaiti oil reserves. "But I do not see it in the cards right now," Moisi said. "Maybe in the very beginning a diplomatic op- tion might have been open. Now it's a bit late."

Judy Levy, a local AFSCME of- ficial, said, "I am against subcon- tracting work... I have a distinct feel- ing workers would receive much less and the owners much more." The department needs the extra* revenue to make up for a $1.7 mil- lion deficit. Increasing costs for transport and dumping at the Brown- ing-Ferris Industries (BFI) landfill in Salem Township account for much of the deficit.
