I LOCAL/STATE The Michigan Daily - Friday, October 25, 1996 - 7 SLLINGER Continued from Page 1 the most modern book by Nabokov?" asked Bollinger, illustrating that classi- cal ideas should compliment newer ones. "(For students) to pick up Shakespeare and read a few lines and feel chills in their body - that's some- thing I think is beyond cost." ut the cost of University Hospitals also important to Bollinger. "You don't want to lose the hospital," Bollinger said. "The academic medical program, with the right kind of leader- ship, can compete in this market." Bollinger said the Medical Center needs to adjust to the competitive med- ical markets opened by health mainte- nance organizations, but simultaneous- ly maintain its academic strength. Bollinger, a highly regarded First endment expert, .was confronted early on about his legal philosophy. The second question from the regents yesterday morning came from Baker, who brought up Bollinger's opposition to the Bork nomination. "You went down with 10 other deans and spoke against his nomination," Baker said. "There is a responsibility that you carry the weight of the institu- Snwith you." Wollinger said his opposition to Bork was based on an essay Bork wrote stat- ing that political expression was the only sort of speech protected by the First Amendment. "1 thought this would be a serious retrenchment on free speech;' Bollinger said. Bollinger said he would not testify in such a hearing if he becomes University president. I That's not to say I think university presidents should refrain from participat- ing in controversial public issues," Bollinger said, adding that issues impor- tant to the future of higher education would be acceptable areas for discussion. Newman said Bollinger's opposition to Bork would not be an obstacle to picking him for president. "It gives some pause for concern," she said. "I was pleased to hear he wouldn't do it today." Regent Laurence Deitch (D- Bloomfield Hills) said questions about Bollinger's past testimony were not that critical. "People have a record," Deitch said. "When you take a stand on something like that, it has a tendency to be contro- versial" Students at the afternoon town meet- ing said they had concerns about Bollinger's commitment to students. Scublinsky said Bollinger should have focused more on students' needs. "He had less of an emphasis on under- graduate education than the other two," Scublinsky said, referring to presidential candidates Stanley Chodorow and Carol Christ. "That would be a strike." Mike Pniewski, who attended the meeting on behalf of the Michigan Student Assembly, said Bollinger seemed to be vague on financial issues. "The other two candidates were much more candid about the budget," Pniewski said. Deitch said Bollinger was articulate and intelligent. "I was impressed with the overwhelm- ing force of his intellect, thebreadth of it, which really is consistent with a place like Michigan," Deitch said. PEROT Continued from Page 1 cisely the other - time after time after time." At a later rally on the steps of the Alabama state house in Montgomery,. Dole repeated criticism of Clinton and the Democrats, par- ticularly for hav- ing accepted a $20,000 contri- bution - later returned - from a convicted drug dealer. "Is there no Dole honor in this administration or in this White House?!" he demanded. Wednesday's meeting between Dole's campaign manager, Scott Reed, and Perot left other Republican strate- gists baffled. Linda DiVall, a GOP poll- ster, called the Dole campaign's deci- sion to approach Perot "strange" "I just don't think that Ross Perot is a significant player in this election? DiVall said. "It's a curious strategy to me." "They may artificially pump up (Perot's) position by treating him seri- ously," DiVall said. Meanwhile, as if to accentuate Dole's difficulties, Clinton campaigned through the heart of Republican territo- ry, shadowing Dole through Alabama - a state where voters usually have a better chance of seeing a snowstorm two weeks before Election Day than a visit from a Democratic presidential candidate. Until yesterday, in fact, Clinton as president had never set foot in Alabama. But under brilliant fall sunshine, Clinton attracted about 10,000 people to a rally at Birmingham Southern College. The sprawling, enthusiastic crowd testified to Clinton's brightening prospects in a state that has voted Democratic for president only once in the past 32 years. "It's such a beautiful day, and the crowd is so large, maybe Alabama is going to come along with me,' Clinton said.

Davis, who lives in Champaign, Ill., is a finalist in the Oscar Mayer talent search and will fly to Orlando, Fla. to sing in a television commercial. Partyoffers Socialist solutions STEINEM Continued from Page 1. "We don't quite realize how differ- ent from that Clinton is. (He supports) pro-choice, affirmative action and the family medical leave act;" Steinem said. "Who supported the increase of the minimum wage? Clinton did. Not only did Dole oppose this raise, but he 'posed raising it from $1 to $1.50. "He has been there that long." The answer to preserving Clinton's programs is further activism, Steinem said. "You need to find out what the con- cern is, see what the electoral system has to do with it, and take this country back from a small group of folks who are trying to control it," Steinem said. "We need to defeat this leadership of the Republican party, so the central- ist Republicans can take the party back." By Stephanie Powell Daily Staff Reporter Instead of chemical reactions, alter- native reactions to capitalism took over one room in the Chemistry Building last night. David North, the national secretary for the Socialist Equality Party, spoke on the problems of today's society and how it differs from the past in a lecture titled, "The Rights of Man, Equality and the Birth of Socialism." "The difficulty is in the acquisition of wealth, which rises proportionally to the needs of the poor" North said. Socialism is the theory that wealth should be evenly distributed in society. North used historical examples to show what results when there is an uneven distribution of wealth. The French Revolution was a war against the aristocracy and it shows what happens when wealth is one-sided, North said. With Nov 5 fast approaching, North also said the election process is flawed. "The election is without issues, ideas, programs and purpose. The only beneficiaries are the pollsters, and the corporations that fund the candidates," North said. The party was upset with the fact that they were left out of the televised debate, along with Reform Party candi- date Ross Perot. North said no viable argument was given for the exclusion except that smaller parties do not have a substantial chance to win. "The decision was made before the debate about how people were going to vote," North said. "If the public cannot hear what we have to say, then how do they know we won't be possible candi- dates to win?" In the televised presidential debates, North said, there was no concrete talk about social and economical polariza- tion. Capitalism is the root of the prob- lem, he said. "Capitalism drives the working class into social struggle and shows the growing division between social class- es," North said. North admits that socialism is cur- rently in crisis. He said he believes that, to correct the trend, people have to acknowledge the problem of the social classes. "The socialist movement is in crisis, but it didn't start with the fall of Communism. That was the culmination of events," North said. The future looks better if the reaction process happens more quickly, he said. Although many local supporters came, only one student attended last night's lecture. "(North's view) is in pragmatic terms impossible," said LSA first-year stu- dent Edward Kim. "He is an angry man that talks about social stratification and he has no solution." SEP is holding its final local rally before the election at 3 p.m. Sunday at 1275 S. Huron St. for any interested students. For further information about the party, call 327-9421. LATINA Continued from Page 1. Recent University graduate Darilis Garcia spoke about the "New Latina" giving what she called a "crash course to self-empowerment." "Once you have that self-confidence one can mess with you;'Garcia said. ell yourself how great and wonderful and beautiful you are." Students said the night warmed their pride of being Latina. "Every day I learn how much more beautiful it is to be Latina," said LSA first-year student Raquel Casariz. "I'm glad to be a part of such a beautiful culture." LSA senior Iliana Santiago-Santiago won the Latina poetry contest for "Strength of These Curves." Delta Tau Lambda lauded statistics Prof. Martha Aliaga as outstanding pro- fessor and La Voz Mexicana as out- standing Latino/a organization. Students said the salute renewed their love of their backgrounds. "I love my mom now - I feel like calling her now," said LSA sophomore Noemi Cortes. Keep Ingrid at bat!
