Page 2-The Michigan Daily-Thursday, October 18,1990' B ri1ti sh say Israel wrong H .w<&.a to ebuff U.N. inquiry sci JERUSALEM (AP)- Britain's foreign secretary said yesterday tha~t Israel was playing into Iraqi hands by rebuffing a U.N. inquiry into the ,Temple Mount killings. Foreign Secretary Douglas Hurd said he has not succeeded in persuad- ing Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir and Foreign Minister David Levy to ~accept the U.N. delegation. '"I think that Saddam Hussein would be very pleased if the (U.N.) 'Security Council now stopped con- centrating on Kuwait and began to concentrate on Arab-Israel," Hurd told reporters, referring to Iraq's 12- week-long occupation of Kuwait. "And that is why I'm anxious that the government of Israel should find some way of receiving ... the secretary-general's mission," he said. Hurd also criticized the Palestine Liberation Organization for supportigt eIaip sd nsyng he c- tion set back chances for a Pales- tinian dialogue with the Israelis. "I think the PLO has made a serious mistake in that respect," he said. The foreign secretary said he didn't see a chance for progress in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict until the Persian Gulf crisis was resolved. He suggested, however, that once Saddam was out of Kuwait, there would be greater pressure on Israel to accept compromises. 4 WEEKEND Continued from page 1 will bring hundreds of Daily alumni to campus. The "Evans Scholars Car Bash," a charity event which involves bash- ing old cars with a sledge hammer, vill take place tomorrow on the giiag. Saturday, the Alumni Council Will sponsor the "Go Blue Brunch," Sigma Alpha Epsilon will sponsor its annual Mud Bowl football game before the big game. SAE will com- 'pete against Phi Delta Theta and Kappa Alpha Theta will play Chi Omega. The week will culminate at the Michigan vs. Iowa football game at Michigan Stadium at 12:30 Satur- day. Even with all of these events, however, some students still regard this as just another weekend more focused on returning students than on the ones already here. "Homecoming in high school was such a big deal, but in college it doesn't seem as important... it's more for the alumni," said Julie Quinlan, first-year LSA. Shariee Turner, first-year LSA student agreed. "During orientation, I kept ask- ing people 'what's homecoming like here?'. All they said was 'it's no big deal,' and I was really let down," she said. Other students see homecoming as a time to reunite with old friends. "The only thing that homecom- ing means to me is seeing friends who have graduated," said Marc Wites, a senior in the Business School. "I have no idea if anything is even going on as far as activities are concerned." "(Homecoming is) just not a so- cial necessity," summarized Robert Van Houweling, an LSA sopho- more. "It's not a big deal... I don't know what they could do to make it seem more important."

DISCUSSION Continued from page 1 "You cannot judge the outcome of the conference yet, but it was an important step in identifying areas of concern and potential improvement,"~ Dumas said. "The value of the con- ference will depend upon what future efforts to act on the conference's conclusions." The retreat participants used the Campus Life report from the Carnegie Foundation, of Washington D.C. as a guideline for their meet- ing. Published yearly, the founda- tion's current report listed six guide- lines to "provide an effective formula for day-to-day decision making on+ the campus and... define the kind of community every college and uni- versity should strive to be." 'There were so many more administrators and faculty present than students, I don't think the results can accurately reflect student opinion' - Nicole Carson LSA Senior The guidelines state that a uni- versity campus must work to be a purposeful, open, just, disciplined,: caring and celebrative community. The delegates at the retreat decided that the University was best at being purposeful, open and celebrative (in that order), but was not as successful at being caring, disciplined and just. "With the University being so large, I can understand peoples' con- cerns about how caring the Univer- sity can be," said Rhetaugh Dumas,, Dean of the Nursing School and a faculty representative at the retreat. "There's always room for im-M provement, and it's important to look for areas where the Univef sity can care more for the students, and the campus in general," she said.
