Page 2-The Michigan Daily- Thursday, October 10, 1991 SHANTIES Continued from page 1 the shanties will not be dismantled until the system of apartheid is dismantled." But after years of protecting the structures from a constant siege of nighttime attacks, the shanty's de- fenders grew disenchanted with the tedious labor. "It was frustrating rebuilding the shanties once a week or so when people kept tearing them down," Dixon said. Although FSACC is defunct, many past members said they now concentrate their efforts on educat- ing peers and other on-campus pro- jects. "But we are still standing in solidarity with (South African Blacks)," Dixon said. The University awarded the hon- orary degree to Mandela in 1987, es- tablished the BMC in his honor in 1989 and divested entirely from South Africa the same year. John Blow, chair of Tagar, the pro-Israel group that built a mock school bus on the Diag to represent a terrorist attack on an Israeli bus in 1988, said the group's durable shanty survived many arson at- tempts in the year it stood. By the time it was taken apart with a crow bar, however, Tagar did not have enough people around to repair it, Blow said. The PSC felt its shanty had served the intended purpose on cam- pus, said PSC member Daniel Kohns. "It was built in order to bring home to students in their sheltered environment the inhumane existence of the Palestinian refugees," said Kohns, who helped construct the shanty. . "There comes a time when you have to vary your tactics and be more creative," he said. Van Valey agreed. "People be- came immune to them after awhile," she said. Some students said they are glad to be rid of Diag shanties. "I really didn't like them being there," said LSA sophomore JR Degia. "They were kind of an eyesore. But I think people should have the freedom to have them. If that's the way they feel, they should be able to express it." When LSA sophomore Anne Marie Weadock arrived on campus last year she assumed they were a natural part of university life. "I thought they were the weirdest things ever," she said. "One time I saw a bum living in one and it kind of freaked me out." p For five years the shanties were as much a part of Diag scenery as the 'M.' Often, up to five of the makeshift structures stood at the same time. Protesting everything from apartheid to the Daily, the shanties were viewed by activists as an expression of political speech. Others thought they were just plain eyesores. TOUR Continued from page 1 against corruption, greed, and moral crisis in America.

"Incredible sums - literally hundreds of millions of dollars - from political action committees, lobbyists, and wealthy patrons have flooded into the campaign war chests of Washington's entrenched political elite - Democrats and+ Brown claims his approach to the presidential campaign is different than any other candidate before him. "If the corruption of political money is the issue then the answer is simply not to take it," Brown said. "Therefore, I will not accept any contribution over $100." ZONING Continued from page 1 the public hearing, including litter and noise. Offen also said he felt the ordi- nance was enforced fairly. "Fraternities, sororities and co- ops all have to apply for special ex- ception use," he said. In approving the other Greek house expansions, he said the commission was "dealing with much lower density" in the surrounding neighborhood. Sacks said one neighborhood res- ident told the sorority board "that they want this house turned back into a single-family dwelling." Paul Rogers, spokesperson for the OxBridge Neighborhood Association, denied that neighbor- hood residents wanted to convert the area back to single-family housing. "The zoning in our area was de- signed to support mixed housing and we support mixed housing," he said. "Our opposition to the expan- sion plan," Rogers said, "is in re- sponse to the detrimental effects of overcrowding," which he said in- cluded parking problems, traffic vi- olations and noise complaints. Rogers regretted that the issue could be perceived as a conflict be- tween residents and students. "This isn't a town-versus-gown issue at all," he said. "All of us care far too much about our town and our gown to be that way." Offen said concerns about a fra- ternity moving into the Sigma Kappa house at some point after the expansion were also a factor in the commission's decision. "That was not the only reason, but it was a consideration," he said. However, Rogers said his orga- nization never really considered that possibility. "We never made a big deal of that issue," he said. Sacks said she will seek a sum- mary judgement overturning the ordinance on the basis of its dis- criminatory nature.

I bL i- HARASSMENT Continued from page 1 This confusion was underscored when Hill's allegations against Supreme Court nominee Clarence Thomas were made public on the eve of his confirmation vote, and be- cause the Judiciary Committee was accused of giving them short shrift. "Over the last 10 years, men and women have come to agree that things like grabbing and touching constitute sexual harassment," said James Gruber, a University of Michigan sociologist and expert on workplace harassment. "But men still don't see the gravity of a whole other range of behavior." TISSUE Continued from page 1 severe mental retardation.

"We have had a series of other incidents of harassment on campus. dating back to the mid-'70s. But things had been calm for quite a while," he said. The rape victim said in an inter- view with the New York Times that the incident occurred in an at- mosphere of constant degradation to women. "Every day of your life you are hearing that you're worthless and it's always in the name of tradi- tion," she said. "Well I say get rid of tradition. They've had long enough to change." But Koldus said only a verv Innuendo, off-color remarks and spreading rumors count, too. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission defines sexual harassment as any sexual ad- vance, request for sexual favor, sex- ual remark or conduct that affects job or promotion decisions, inter- feres with work performance or cre- ates a hostile, offensive or intimi- dating atmosphere. That last bit is significant. The vast majority of victims decline to report clear-cut cases of being touched or threatened with a demo- tion. Even fewer are likely to stand up against subtler but no less inap- propriate workplace behavior. A 1987 study of federal govern- tus hasn't come up before," said Zanjani.

All the Democrats on the panel, but not every Republican member, were briefed about the allegations before the committee voted 7-7 and sent the nomination to the Senate floor without a recommendation. Many figure it's part of the game. "They think, well, this is,- life," said Lynn Hecht Schafran, an attorney with the National,. Organization for {Women Legal Defense and Education fund.

Zanjani said that tissues from a7' single fetus could be used to treat four or five fetuses. "I know it's crude to say it - one life to save five, if successful," he added.
