Independent presidential candidate Christian Payne said the assembly should involve more students. "It's time for all of the parties to put aside political persuasions and start making the Michigan Student Assem- bly more accessible to students," he said. Benjamin Bolger, the Protest Party's candidate for president, also said the assembly should increase its focus on students. Pointing to his University ID card, Bolger said, "This is a student and we've forgotten what students are." The Michigan Party's presidential candidate Julie Neenan said, "A lot of people don't know what's out there for fhe students to benefit from MSA." But Saura Sahu, the DO Party's presidential candidate, had a differ- ent perspective. "I don't think increased awareness nity. Currently, Judicial Advisor Mary Lou Antieau does not file charges. A single amendment proposed by LSA sophomore Pradnya Parulekar, and signed by 500 students, would extend the statute of limitations of the code from six months to one year. Parulekar said at the aborted hearing in February that the extension would be ideal to allow students adequate time to file cases, especially when they are off-campus for summer or are victims of assault. The student jurors will ultimately decide the format for the evening. LSA junior Randy Schwemmin will moderate. The time will most likely be split between the verbal proposal of an amendment or group of amend- ments, rebuttal, questions from the student jurors and public comments. Schwemmin, the Student Leader Board coordinator and president-elect of University Activities Center, said he is encouraged that the 26 jurors have signed up to attend. "I'm glad to see that the people who are involved don't think that this is a waste of time," Schwemmin said. The public hearing will be held this evening from 6-8:30 in Room 120 Hutchins Hall in the Law School. The Office of Student Affairs requests that anyone wishing to speak at the hearing contact the office. PRI MARY Continued from page 1 He credited Clinton's campaign visit at a "pivotal moment" two weeks ago with sparking a comeback in a race that was considered too close to call even on election eve. Cullerton, an attorney with 15 years of experience in the state legis- lature, conceded defeat last night. Alderman Bernard Hansen, a Cullerton adviser, said a turnout of 55 percent of the district's voters would have been needed to achieve an upset victory over Rostenkowski. "Simpson's the spoiler," Hansen told a reporter, referring to the candi- date who ran third in the five-way contest. But Rostenkowski was winning more votes than both Cullerton and Simpson. Two other candidates trailed badly. Bill Banks, an alderman and leader of the 36th ward on the Northwest@ side of the city that helped ensure Rostenkowski's victory, said he had more than 1,000 precinct workers making sure that supporters of the Ways and Means chairman went to the polls. Rostenkowski carried every pre- cinct in his ward except one, Banks said. is the main problem of MSA," Sahu said. "The students have the answers and that's what we want to get back to." Despite the amount of time the as- sembly has spent on the Ann Arbor Tenants' Union (AATU) issue since last September, the issue went almost unnoticed last night. Several candidates reaffirmed their support for the pro-tenants organiza- tion, but no one gave reasons and no AATU opponents discussed the issue. During the friendly debate, each candidate spoke for only about 11 minutes. The Statement of Student Rights and Responsiblities, however, was dis- cussed after the candidates were ques- tioned on their position on the code of non-academic conduct. Most of the candidates explained their opposition to the code. But Outsider Party presidential can- didate Trevor Moeller said he sees the need for such a code. "We do not think the code should be abolished. This code is not going to go away," Moeller said. "What's real- istic is we're going to have to vote in a strong student government that has a detailed plan to work on the code." Most of the candidates said there is a need for meeting often with Univer- sity administrators, such as Vice Presi- dent for Student Affairs Maureen A. Hartford, but Masely disagreed. "We intend to build a movement of people independent of the administra- tion," Masley said. "It's going to take MSA from being something that's not just another arm of the administra- tion." Students' Party presidential candi- date Devon Bodoh, whose party has been endorsed by the Progressive Party, said his party is committed to increas- ing funding to student groups by $20,000 by reducing administrative costs. Last year, the Michigan Party, which has been endorsed by the Conservative Coalition, helped increase student group funding by $15,000 under the leadership of its candidate for vice presi- dent, Jacob Stern. Staff members from the Black Stu- dent Monthly, The Michigan Daily, the Michigan Independent and the Michigan Review posed questions to the candidates in the debate, sponsored by the Daily.

VIGIL Continued from page :. "As students walk through the Diag, as they do all the time during the day, they notice, 'Wow, this is still going on,' and I think it raises consciousness more than a sign (with names) in front of the LSA Building," said RC sophomore Darone Ruskay, a coordinator of the event. He said that he believes that the vigil is more effective than even a speech commemorating the dead, be- cause at most, a speaker reaches 300 or 400 people, whereas a 24-hour vigil will be acknowledged by thou- Ann Arbor Civic Theatre 5PatRa AU Ticketsct0ons0 Anton Chekhov s directed by Susan Morris March 10-26, 1994 i" Thurs., Fri. & Sat. at 8:00 p.m. Ann Arbor Civic Theatre, 2275 Platt Road AU Mkets: x$8.00 Tickets or Information, Cali 971-AAC, sands of students who pass by through- out the day and night. "Everything else kind of talks about the ideas of the Holocaust," Ruskay said, "but I think that this really brings it down to the names." LSA senior Jonathan Kaufman stopped by to observe the proceed- ings, and to volunteer to read. "(Reading names) enables me to help reach people in the way that the event was intended," he said. "And it helps those people who were reading before me to rest their voices."

He said he has been waiting six months to cast a vote to permanently abolish Michigan's high property taxes. Morgan said the two-cent sales tax hike will be easy to swallow. "I hardly notice the sales tax as it is," he said. "I don't think (the in- crease) will make much of a differ- ence." Engler called the passage a big win for Michigan. "We've fought the cynics and been able to do what's not been done in terms of changing the direction of and course of Michigan. We're very ex- cited," he said. Yesterday's election wrote an end- ing to a school finance upheaval that erupted in July. That's when lawmak- ers adopted an amendment offered by state Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-Lan- sing) to wipe out the use of property taxes for school operations. An opponent of the sales tax plan said voters will feel cheated when the outcome hits their pocketbooks. "(Engler) promised people a tax and the warmth of a kerosene heater Ruskay, looking ahead to the long night, said, "It's very beautiful at three in the morning. It's cold, the lights in the Grad go out and yet were still here. "We're not loud, we're not mak- ing a show and I think a real statement is being made. I think people notice it." As the names were read, Ruska noted, some of those in attendance heard names familiar to them, per- sonifying the number -6 million - a goal of the vigil. A number, Polsky said, that should not be forgotten. cut. They know they got a tax shift at best, and for many people, it's a real tax shaft," said Democratic guberna- torial hopeful Howard Wolpe. 0 "People are angry, they feel they've been manipulated, ... and I think they're going to hold all the architects of this mess. accountable come Election Day." Stabenow, another Democratic gubernatorial hopeful who backed the income tax alternative, downplayed the significance of the vote. "The most important thing is prop@ erty tax relief and providing for our schools. That happened in December. We're going to have some work to do to make it work," she said. One political analyst said Demo- cratic strategists had underestimated the public's dislike of the income tax. "I had been expecting a 55-45 win, which would be a very strong win. Anything more than that will b a major political event," said Geral Faverman, professor of political sci- ence at Michigan State University. "It'll not only put an end to this 25-year debate about school financ- ing and equity, it will strengthen the governor's hand in the months ahead immensely." *part-time postitions 9co-facilitate discussion available as groups for incoming Diversiy Fci~ttors students on multicultural f e Summr :opics Rud discrimination a iig opportutye acth n m the Office of Orentation is an equal-opportunity affirmative action employer : .: . : : .. :.. .... :.. ..2:2 Qualifications: employment period - May 23 to August 11 eat least sophomore standing at time of application must be available two week-day mornings each eexperience with workshop presentations, teaching and/or small group facilitation eunderstanding of various types and levels of discrimination edesire to work with incoming students on these issues Applications Available at: *Office of Orientation, 3011 SAB eCampus Information Center, Michigan Union *North Campus Information Center, North Campus Commons for more information call 764.6290 week during spring and summer terms.
