FILM
Conitued from page 1
closed down when the parties could
not reach a compromise.
Many students said that, although
they enjoyed the documentary, they
found the section on pornography
disturbing.
"The piece about pornography
was hideous. It showed clips from
porno films for no apparent reason
and they were simply disgusting,"
said John Schnef, an Engineering
senior.
Margo St. James - a prostitute
from the film - challenged critics
of prostitution in general.
"They resent the fact that women
can get all the sex they want and
don't have to pay for it," said St.
James.
Several students expressed con-
cern about the societal conditions
whic, result in prostitution.
"So many prostitutes spend all
the money they make on drugs so
that they become so dependent on
them that they put themselves in a
hole. They can't get out of prostitu-
tion because they need to make
enough money to buy drugs and they
can't get a job because they are
prostitutes on drugs without an edu-
cation," said LSA junior Sam Smith.
However, one prostitute from the
film countered, "People have differ-
ent ideas. Not all are in it for drugs.
Many do want to go to rehab centers
to get off the stuff, but unless you
have money they don't want you."
Smith added, "One prostitute said
she wanted to 'go to college and
shit,' but then the interviewer asked
her if she graduated from high
school and she said no. Well how in
the hell are you going to go to col-
lege and get a good job if you
haven't finished high school and are
a drug addict prostitute?"
CAMPAIGN
Continued from page 1
lion in gifts and pledges and $150
million in bequests to compensate
for a growing decrease of state and
federal appropriations to the U-M.
The bequests campaign has not
been as productive as the pledge
campaign, raising only $49,877,000
- one-third of its $150 million goal.
Though bequests arel.5 percent be-
low their straight line projection,
Roberson said he remains optimistic.
"That's not a major concern be-
cause we started this program quite
late and I'm quite confident we'll
improve," Roberson said. "I'm sure
that number will grow much faster."
To encourage continued support,
the campaign is planning a presenta-
tion for 800 to 1,000 alumni who are
expected to be in California for the
Rose Bowl.
"It's not to raise money. It's a
cultivation activity and an opportu-
nity to do something to forward the
campaign," Roberson said.
U-M President James Duderstadt
and LSA Dean Edie Goldenberg will
speak during the program, which
will also feature a slide show focus-
ing on five different groups at U-M
including a medical research team
and the varsity basketball team.
Campaign workers said they are
confident they will reach their $1
billion goal.
"I don't think it will be a piece of
cake but we'll reach it because we
have alumni who know and under-
stand the need for support so we can
keep the best and the brightest here,"
said Chacona Johnson, senior asso-
ciate director for (the campaign's)
major gifts.
Roberson agreed. "We're finding
enthusiastic and supportive alumni
saying, 'what can I do and how can I
help?"
MILITARY
Continued from page 1
Marine Commandant Carl Mun-
dy echoed Cheney's comments,
saying he hoped U.S. troops en-
counter "a peaceful disarmament,"
but will be ready to meet any chal-
lenge if they don't.
"We are prepared to take what-
ever measures we have to achieve
disarmament," the four-star general
said in an appearance on ABC's
"This Week With David Brinkley."
The Marine general said he be-
lieved U.S. forces in the region will
begin moving into Somalia "in about
two days."
The troops will be allowed to re-
turn fire if fired upon, and also will
be allowed to shoot first should
someone even appear to be making
threatening moves, Mundy said.
"If you're looking for the United
States to stay until all Somalia's
problems are solved - it's not go-
ing to happen," Cheney said.
He said U.S. officials hoped to
begin turning some areas of Somalia
over to U.N. peacekeepers by the
end of next month.
However, he refused to specify
any date for a U.S. departure.
National security adviser Brent
Scowcroft, interviewed on CBS-
TV's "Face The Nation," said the
U.S. role in the operation "is strictly
limited" and hopefully will prepare a
groundwork of peace so Somalia can
rebuild a government structure.
Scowcroft said, however, that at
least "a few thousand" U.S. military
personnel may be called upon to re-
main in Somalia after the U.S.
ground troops depart.
They would be logistics special-
ists who would help provide support
for any U.N. follow-on forces,
Scowcroft said.
L-
FACULTY
Continued from page 1
U-M Native American Students
Association (NASA) member and
University of Windsor student Jason
George agreed. "There's not many
Native Americans here, and it would
be wise to give a little support," he
said.
John Matlock, director of the
university's Office of Minority
Affairs, said although a faculty
member of color's involvement with
his or her respective community
would be nice, a faculty member has
an obligation to serve as a mentor to
everyone.
"Students are supposed to be ad-
vised by faculty, period," he said.
"We all learn from diversity of opin-
ions and diversity of experience."
Matlock added that, in order to
get tenure, faculty members dili-
gently work on research and publi-
cations in addition to teaching, and
often lack time to participate in
activities.
The university evaluates faculty
members who aspire to attain tenure
within five to six years of being
hired. Faculty members who are not
given tenure must leave the univer-
sity and search for teaching positions
elsewhere.
"A lot of times it seems that
faculty of color are expected to work
with students. The question is, does
the system provide you to do that?"
Matlock asked.
Rasmussen agreed. "It's hard to
tell what a person of color should be
doing on the Michigan campus.
People are entitled to not be as ac-
tive as people would like to be. If
you don't get tenure, you're out of
here," she said.
The university recognizes four
primary minority groups on campus
- Asians, African Americans,
Latinos, and Native Americans.
However, Native Americans are
held up to a different standard.
Federal law mandates that Native
Americans be recognized by a com-
munity or tribe in addition to pos-
sessing Native American ancestry.
Asians, African Americans and
Latinos need only distinguish their
backgrounds.
Beck said the conflict regarding
recognition by the community has
concerned many tribal elders and has
caused inconclusive arguments.
"We don't ask African
Americans to prove they're African
Americans. No Indian person has a
right to tell another person they're
not Indian," he said.
NASA Vice-President Shannon
Martin said most Native Americans
on campus are involved and recog-
nized by the U-M Native American
community since it is small.
She said those who are not visi-
bly involved "may be doing things
for the Native American community
that we don't see or hear about."
"I wish they all would be in-
volved, but some of them can't,"
Martin said.
Like Matlock and Beck, she said
simply being professors and teaching
is a large contribution to the whole
U-M community - in addition to
Native Americans - because they
may be using personal experiences
in the classroom.
Nevertheless, the feelings with
regard to the role of Native
American faculty are inconclusive.
"It would make sense they would
have interest in their own minority,"
said NASA President Dawn
DeMarsh. "But it's a personal call.
Everybody's different. It's sad if a
person chose not to d J
However, she added, "Just be-
cause they have a different color
skin doesn't mean anything. It de-
pends on the person inside."
George noted, "It's not right to
force someone to do something they
don't want to do, but it is right to
want to help others. It's a moral
obligation, more or less."
AIDS
Continued from page 1
of the Baptist Pastors' Council con-
ducted a frank safer sex workshop.
A tupperware party for sex toys,
Washington introduced dental-dam
garter wear, a line of flavored con-
doms, and erotic massage oils.
"Its a shame you've got to set up
your partner and give a pelvic
nowadays," said Washington about
the AIDS and STD crisis.
For men who argue that con-
doms just don't fit, Washington
tested the capacity of a condom by
pulling it over her assistant's arm.
"If it's bigger than that you've
got a problem," added Washington.
She added that Saran Wrap is a
suitable replacement for dental
dams, which should be thrown
away after each use.
Washington suggested pleasure
tips for men who are turned off by
the use of condoms such as turning
a ribbed condom inside out.
One symposium participant sug-
gested "double bagging." Men use
two condoms with a layer of lubri-
cant in between for greater
pleasure.
When the group's excitement
died down, it went back to Hutchins
Hall for statistics.
Dr. Paula Schuman from Harper
Hospital in Detroit discussed the
Center for Disease Control (CDC)
definition of HIV which makes no
distinction for gender-specific dis-
eases like yeast infections.
Second-year public health stu-
dent and symposium organizer
Helen Matzger said, like the o.her
speakers, the definition remains
gender neutral because changing it
would be too expensive for the
health care system.
Schuman said women with HIV
should not be forced into birth con-
trol or sterilization. She said they
should make an informed choice.
The final speaker, Kathy Gerus
- who is the co-founder of the
Detroit Area Women's Support
Group - described her personal
battle against AIDS. Gerus said she
contracted the disease from her late
husband - a hemophiliac.
Gerus said the National
Hemophilia Foundation members
had been sworn to secrecy about the
statistics on hemophiliacs who had
contracted AIDS.
Gerus said she considers herself
lucky to have a supportive network
of family, friends and co-workers.
She echoed the sentiment of earlier
speakers who said that the defini-
tion of women with HIV presents a
huge obstacle to obtaining treat-
ment and funds to fight the disease.
Students from the School of
Public Health said they were ex-
cited about the program.
"The big message is (AIDS is)
part of a much larger cultural, so-
cial problem. We can't look at it
only as a health problem," said sec-
ond-year School of Public Policy
student Leslie Miller.
"This is one of the best student-
produced symposiums I've ever
been to," said first-year student
Abigail Hunter.
Public health students struggle
with statistics on a daily basis. They
hunger for a taste of the real world,
which the symposium appeased,
according to Hunter.
"Especially during finals time
it's important to remember the the-
ory can be put in to practice," added
her classmate Laura Hiller.
Music School senior Holly
Murphy said she was impressed
with the symposium, but said she
wished students would have been
more involved in the World AIDS
Awareness Week programs.

MARCH
Continued from page 1
Welsh said he found out a lot
more about hatred and prejudice
when he discovered he had AIDS.
The former doctor was forced to
give up his practice due to the
disease.
"When I was first diagnosed
with AIDS, I thought my life was
over. Now I know it has just be-
gun," Welsh said. "We light these
candles tonight to honor the pre-
cious gift (people who died of
AIDS) lives' were to us all."
UAC Special Events co-chair
Jenny Hung helped coordinate the
march. The event was sponsored
by UAC, the Lesbian Gay Male
Programs Office and Condom
Sense.
"The money from pledge
sheets, red ribbons, and pins goes
to the Wellness fund for AIDS re-
search and to support people with
AIDS," Hung said. "The purpose
of the march is to bring more
awareness to our campus."
Co-chair Michell Antonino
agreed with Hung. "The campus
community needs to become in-
volved in these issues of social
and AIDS awareness," Antonino
said.
An Ypsilanti resident who
wished to remain anonymous said
22 of his friends have died of
AIDS in the last nine years.
"There reaches a point where
you become jaded to death so the
marching stops being a motiva-
tor," he said.
"I am much more concerned
with those with the living experi-
ence of AIDS," he added.

sembly. I think it's pretty clear cut."
But others said they did not think
Fox had acted wrongly.
"If you are the president of MSA,
you are the president and you are al-
lowed to say that whenever you want
as long as you don't claim you are
speaking for the assembly," said
SOMALIA
Continued from page 1
Mogadishu yesterday, relief workers
reopened the port and got food from
one end of the divided city to the
other unscathed for the first time in
more than a month.
Arranging the convoys took two
days of negotiations between the two
rival clan militias that control halves
of the city, but their success raised
hopes that more of the food sitting in
warehouses would soon reach the
hungry.
Pattrice Maurer, an organizer of the
disinvitation to Daryl Gates.
Maureen Hartford, vice president
for student affairs, said it is often
difficult for officers to know when to
use their titles.
"My feeling is generally it's
wiser to define yourself as, in this
case Ede Fox, a student at the
University of Michigan," Hartford
said. "(Otherwise) it tends to be mis-
leading, as if it's done representing
that body."
But Fox said she was acting as an
individual - not as MSA president.
"I realize I am the spokesperson
for the assembly but I am also an
individual and a person first," Fox
said. "I'm not going to give up ev-
erything I do on campus just because
I'm supposed to represent the whole
student body."
