Arb," Steiner said. "I tell people the
same thing about the Arb that I do
about the rest of the places in Ann
Arbor. You have to take precautions
and be careful. I think that people
assume that there are more rapes
there because there are less people."

of Spokane, Wash., joined the air-
line in March, Northwest said.
While refusing to list specific
suspected causes of Monday's colli-
sion, the NTSB said it wasn't the
first time planes have crossed paths
at Detroit in recent years.
Through the end of October, 22
incursions had been recorded this
year at U.S. airports, the Federal
Aviation Administration said. That
compares with 223 recorded in 1989,
179 in 1988, and a record 382 in
1987.
At Detroit, pilots whose planes
were on the ground were found to
have been responsible for 11 incut-
sions in 1987, nine in 1988, eight
in 1989 and two this year. In mo
cases, the pilots entered a runwhy
without clearance from the airport's
control tower, the FAA said.
John Lauber, who heads the cur-
rent NTSB investigation at Detroit,
told a U.S. House subcommittee in
March that it has spent the past five
years studying runway incursios
and recommending ways to prevent
them.

"The Arb is what it is. I don't
advocate putting lights every place
in the universe. The Arb is designed
to be woods. Rape is not more
likely to occur there. It can happen
at home," she said.

Molefi Asante, chair of the De-

Students and faculty said they

MLK DAY
Continued from page 1
Locke is a lecturer and consultant
on American Indian values and social
structures. He has worked in the edu-
cation field as both a teacher and an
administrator.
"We are opening this event with
a ceremony which describes the Na-
tive Americans' view toward the in-
ter-connectedness toward all of
mankind," Monroe-Fowler said.
Locke will use a medicine wheel
that demonstrates the four colors of
humankind: red, white, yellow, and
black, she said.
Adalaide Sanford will deliver the
keynote address, following Locke's
presentation. Under Sanford's admin-
istration as principal of Public
School 21 in Brooklyn, the school
earned city-wide recognition for
pupil achievement, teacher morale,
and special programs for gifted and

talented students. Sanford now serves
as a regent at the State University of
New York.
Several concurrent panel discus-
sions are also scheduled for Jan. 21.
They will focus on a wide range of
issues including: "Multi-cultural Is-
sues and International Relations,"
"The Future of Poverty," and "Race,
Environmental Hazards and the New
Civil Rights Movement."
In addition, a student workshop
entitled "Assimilation/Cultural
Hegemony: The Psychology of Self
Identity," will discuss the problems
that students face regarding racial
identity and self-concept.
The Annual Unity March will
begin at noon on Jan. 21. This year,
the University Community will be
joined by approximately 450 high
school students of color who are a
part of the University's King-
Chavez-Parks College Day Program.

as well as activate appeal boards.
Since women do not register with
the Selective Service and cannot be
drafted, only men over the age of
eighteen can be called to duty.
From this group, men in the cal-
endar year of their 20th birthday
would be the called first, followed in
order by men of the ages 21, 22, 23,
24, 25, and then 19.
The Selective Service then con-
ducts a lottery draw within each age
division that selects birthdates at
random, numbering each group from
1 to 365.
Selective Service then sends in-
duction orders to as many groups as
are needed, requiring registrants to
report either to the Military Entrance
Processing Station for a physical ex-
amination and possible induction, or

"My friends were more surprised
(than I). Everybody's been real sup-
portive, and they ask for my ad-
dress," Murphy said.
Most students involved only in
the Reserve Officer Training Pro-
grams (R.O.T.C.) for the Army,
Navy and the Air Force should not
worry about being called to active
duty, said U.S. Army Lieutenant
Colonel William Gregor.
R.O.T.C., students train to be-
come junior officers and are com-
missioned in the military reserves
only after completing their educa-

to file a claim for postponement, de-
ferment, or exemption from military
service.
Cleaver said that even at the
height of the Vietnam War no more
than 200 of the 365 potential groups
were called.
After receiving induction orders, a
registrant has ten days in which he
can file a claim for postponement,
deferment or exemption. Although
student status is no longer grounds
for deferment as it was during the
Vietnam War, students are entitled to
postponement.

"Students can petition to finish
off their academic term, and seniors
can petition to finish the year," said
Larry Waltman, spokesperson for the
Selective Service System.
Registrants can also claim con-
scientious objector status, meaning
that they are "opposed to participa-
tion in all wars." Claims of consci-
entious objection go to local appea
boards who decide the validity olW
claims and then offer the objector ei-
ther civilian service jobs or, non-
combat positions in the Armed
Forces.
