Chodorow, who continues to teach an
undergraduate history class, also spoke
about relationships within the universi-
ty. He supported tenure as a way for
faculty members to establish authority,
contended the department of public
safety is important in "managing public
safety" and praised the benefits of
learning environments outside the
classroom.
Out-of-classroom learning experi-
ences - whether in a living, electronic
or extracurricular environment -
strengthen faculty-student relation-
ships, he said.
Penn's Writers' Guild-an organiza-
tion that attracts thousands of people
with a smiliar interest - brings the
school's various groups together, he
said.
"It's a place of interaction around an
*!activity that students, faculty and staff
have in common;' Chodorow said. "It's
begun to enrich campus."
Chemistry Prof. Thomas Dunn said
Chodorow seemed to be "faculty-ori-
ented."
"The guy is able to express articu-
lately many of the things that resonate
in this community" Dunn said. "He
showed that he is a quick learner. We
would learn something from him and
he would learn something from us."
Regents said after the town meeting
that they didn't want to compare
Chodorow and Vice Chancellor Carol
Christ of the University of California-
Berkeley, the first candidate the board
interviewed Monday.
"We have to suspend lurching to
judgment midway through the process'

Chodorow on the
Issues
On public universities: "It's a place
that can make a real difference."
On relieving stress: "I have a deep
affection for 100-mite (bicycle) ,
rides. By the 60th, 70th mile, your
breathing is very even.
On his personal life: Chodorow jok-
ingly told the board that he leads an
"alternative lifestyle" in today's
society - he's been married for 33
years and has two sons, both of
whom married this year.
On gender issues: "In some fields,
we have succeeded. .. At Penn,
we've made an effort .., to create
an environment in which women feel
comfortable."
On faculty: "All great universities
are built on the basis of faculty val-
ues."
Arbor).
While Power said the first two candi-
dates have been "spectacular," the
board still is scheduled to interview
Dartmouth Provost Lee Bollinger
tomorrow and Vice Chancellor and
Provost at University of Illinois Larry
Faulkner on Monday.
Chodorow said Law School Dean
Jeffrey Lehman, chair of the
Presidential Search Advisory
Committee, provided him with lots of
literature about the University to pre-
pare him for the interviews.
"(The University) seems to have a
sense of community that's unusual,"
Chodorow said. "People care about sus-
taining that sense of community inter-
est."

Peace
talks back
on track
in Mi9deast
TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) - After a
brief crisis, U.S.-mediated peace talks
between Israel and the Palestinians
were back on track yesterday and
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
said a deal was "very close to comple-
tion."
Talks lasted into yesterday evening
at a Jerusalem hotel, and Israel Radio
said a deal on Israel's long-delayed
pullout from the West Bank town of
Hebron might be announced during
the night.
The sides reached agreement early
yesterday morning on the future
administration of civil affairs in
Hebron and were close to agreeing on
the security arrangements, Israeli
reports said.
"I hope it will be finished quickly,"
Netanyahu said of the agreement. He
told reporters that a meeting between
him and Palestinian leader Yasser
Arafat would be "desirable" when an
accord is reached.
But despite the optimism of the
Israeli side, the Palestinians have said
they do not want to settle for a deal that
resolves only the question of Hebron.
They also want Israel to stop expansion
of Jewish settlements, ease the closure
of Palestinian areas, release Palestinian
prisoners and resolve other outstanding
issues.
"Hebron is not the issue. It's whether
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, (right) and French President Jacques Chirac raise their glasses in a toast yester<
day. In his two-day visit to Israel, Chirac ruffled feathers by endorsing the establishment of a Palestinian state.
they want peace or not, and all the indi-
cations show that they don't want
peace," said Ahmed Qureia, speaker of
the Palestinian legislative council.
The Israelis claim the Palestinians
are stalling to put pressure on Israel and
to portray it as having reneged on the
agreements signed by its previous,
more dovish government.
"The person who is stalling today and
the person who is posturing is Arafat,"
said Israeli President Ezer Weizman.
The latest round of talks began in
response to a plea from President
Clinton following a week of violence
in which Palestinian police and Israeli
soldiers opened fire on one another,
killing 79 people. At a summit in
Washington, Clinton persuaded the
two sides to negotiate until they
reached accord.
The United States reportedly has
been pressing the two sides to reach
agreement on a Hebron pullback before
the U.S. elections.
Under the Israel-PLO accords, Israel
was to have pulled out of Hebron in
March. But then-Prime Minister
Shimon Peres delayed the pullout after
a series of bombings by Islamic mili-
tants in Israel. Netanyahu postponed the
withdrawal again after he won Israel's
May election, demanding better securi-
ty for the 450 Jewish settlers who live in
the city of 94,000 Arabs.
On Monday, U.S. envoy Dennis Ross,
who is mediating the talks, announced
he was returning to Washington, appar-
ently after concluding that the talks
were hopelessly deadlocked. He was-en
route to the airport when he received a
phone call - from Netanyahu, accod-
ing to one unconfirmed report --ard
returned to the talks.
U.S. Embassy spokesperson Richard
Scorza told reporters in Tel Aviv yester-
day that Ross decided to delay his
departure when it became clear that the
latest round, which lasted until after-3
a.m. yesterday, was producing results,
"We were in the midst of the most
promising discussions to date on the
issue of civil affairs," Scorza said. "The
discussions made significant progress."

MSA President Fiona Rose said that
in addition to providing more funding
for BPC, the assembly would use the
additional funding to end its practice

called the fee increase question "pork

think it's very hypocritical for the
assembly to complain about tuition
bills and then keep asking students to
raise their fees for more money,"
Friedman said. "An increase will mean
we have one of the highest student fees

increases pass, the fee would become

State and Iowa.

system unfair, Mehta said.
"Rankings have had a (drastic)
effect on students - every major
administrative decision is made with
the rankings in the back of the admin-
istrators' minds," said Nick
Thompson, vice president of
Associated Students of Stanford.
Local students had mixed opinions
about the importance of the U.S. News
rankings.
"Even if it's hard (for the rankings)
to be completely accurate they are still
helpful," said SNRE senior Catherine
Britt.
Second-year Dental School student
Carla Skaates said students should
look beyond rankings when choosing a
University.
"I'm from the Upper Peninsula and
there wasn't very many people to talk
to, so (the rankings) came in handy,"
Skaates said. "But I wouldn't use them
as the only criteria for choosing a
school."
LEAGUE
Continued from Page 1.
The development is part of a larger
renovation project funded by
University-issued bonds. In addition to
the construction in the Underground,
the bond issue is currently paying for
renovations to University Health
Services, the Pierpont Commons, the
Michigan Union and the upper levels of
the League, Yecke said.
Construction in the League's upper
floors began last October and is nearing
completion. Yecke said many League
systems now under renovation, includ-
ing the heating and cooling mecha-
nisms and the bathrooms, have seen lit-
tie improvement in the past 70 years.
Work done to the League's upper lev-
els includes the creation of handi-
capped-accessible doors on the main
level, total renovation of the hotel
rooms on the fourth floor and the instal-
lation of completely new, handicapped-
accessible bathrooms on all floors.
Improvements of offices and meeting
rooms on the second floor are not yet
completed.
Though he doesn't use the League
very often, LSA senior Roberto Pando
said he thought the Underground was a
useful addition to the campus. "It will
be very benificial for students who
have classes in that area to have a place
to go, eat and sit," he said.

THETA CHI
Continued from Page 1.
Landes, who works in the Office of
Greek Life and is also an alum of Theta
Chi, said chapter presidents are proba-
bly the most responsible for alcohol
violations because of their high posi-
tion in the fraternity.
"Greek Life expects chapter presi-
dents to know what's going on," Landes
said. "We do hold other (fraternity
members) responsible"
According to the statutes of the host
law, a first-time offense is a misde-
meanor punishable by no more than 30
days in prison and/or a $1,000 fine. A
second offense warrants a 90-day max-
imum in jail.
The fraternity is currently under
investigation for illegally serving alco-
hol to minors and having a common
source of alcohol on its premises at the
party.
"It was a young woman having a one-
night problem with alcohol which is no
way indicative of the Greek system," said
Powell, an Engineering senior. Greek
alcohol policies prohibit the presence of
kegs, bottles and common sources of
alcohol - such as coolers or punch
bowls - at any fraternity parties.
AAPD officer Alicia Green, a police
liaison to the Greek system, said a
University fraternity president was
found guilty of host law violations two
years ago.
"The person involved was a member
of the fraternity Zeta Beta Tau, and he
pled guilty," Green said. "ZBT was shut
down (last semester) from a combina-
tion of a lot of problems and other
things."
Green said serving alcohol to minors
is also a violation of city ordinances
and a misdemeanor.
