2 -- The'Michigan Daily - Wednesday, October 30, 1996 NATION/WORLD SPEAK OUT Continued from Page 1 Center education and prevention coordinator, said that although she was a little disappointed that fewer people showed up than she anticipat- ed, she was impressed by the readi- ness of the speakers. "Many speakers seemed to be ready (to speak) and this was the right time for them," Wright said. "I am truly amazed by the things I hear and by what things people have done to get on the road tQ recovery." According to SAPAC, domestic violence is the leading cause of seri- ous injury to American women. "It never fails to amaze me that (sexual assault) keeps hitting so close to home, even though it's never happened to me," said LSA junior Meghan Marsano. "I think this was an incredible and powerful experi- ence." DEBATE Continued from Page 1 to be a team player who can work in tandem with the board. "I would expect that a person who wants to work as a president can work with this team," Bishop said. "It's the University that's important." Bishop said recent relations between the presi- dent and the board have been tainted by "arrogance." The president must have a vision "that meshes with the Board of Regents,' Bishop contended. The presidential search wasn't the only topic candidates debated - stu- dents also raised the issue of rising tuition costs. Candidates said they rec- ognized an importance in keeping tuition low. "No matter how you strengthen (the University), no matter how much you make it better, if you out-price it, it's all irrelevant," Taylor said. Bishop echoed Taylor's sentiments. "There's got to be something in your budget that you go after first," Bishop said, noting that tuition should be a last resort in fund-raising. Maynard said academically qualified in-state students should always have access to the University, regardless of financial status. "One of the major issues is paying for education," Maynard said. "It's important for students to be able to access the highest quality of education on the undergraduate level." Baker said 24 years of service on the board have shown him the process used to set tution rates. He said keeping tuition low is important to him. "The problem is that ... costs go up," Baker said. "I voted against tution on several occasions. We try to keep it down." With some irony, Baker noted that MSA seeks to increase its student fees by 100 percent this term, while the regents approved a tuition increase of only 3 percent last July. MSA President Fiona Rose said she was pleased by the quality of discussion at last night's meeting. "It was refreshing to hear a regent and potential regents take students' concerns so seriously," Rose said. "I actually give the regents a lot of credit for reaching out to students." Though the turnout of 25 left much of the Vandenberg Room empty, Rose said she was pleased with the number of students in attendance. "I'm glad to see students participate, even during midterms," she said. LSA senior Paul Wilhelm said all of the candidates have solid credentials. "They all seem like they have a good vision for the University as a whole," Wilhelm said. Wilhelm said he attended because he was concerned "with issues of morality" and what the candidates' "vision was for the University." Dems release pre-election funds records WASHINGTON - Under intense pressure to give an accounting ofits pre-tlec tion fund-raising, the Democratic National Committee released a list of contribu tors and expenses yesterday - but not the full report normally filed by political parties. DNC General Chairman Christopher Dodd said his staff would "work cont- ously" to file a complete report with the'Federal Election Commission "as soo possible." DNC spokesperson Amy Weiss Tobe said the full report would be submitted to the FEC on the proper forms by the end of this week, before Election Day. The DNC's initial decision not to file a pre-election report, which was actually due last Thursday, was widely criticized by Republicans and independent advo- cates of campaign finance reform. Republican National Committee Chairman Haley Barbour accused the DNC of "blatantly flouting the law." "The purpose of this law is that the public has a right to know before the elec- tion," Barbour said at a news conference. Dodd maintained the DNC was not legally required to file the report imm# ately since the party didn't spend any money on President Clinton or other can- paigns during the Oct. 1-15 period the report covers. RESEARCH Continued from Page 1 Janet Lee, a fourth-year Medical stu- dent agreed, and said research integrity lies in the individual student. "It depends on what kind of ethics you have,' she said. Prof. Greg Gibson, who teaches the course "Genetics in Society," pointed to the situation as science showing one of its greatest strengths. "The restrictions are in place in a sci- entific program to find false results. Results are always replicated," he said. Therefore, it is impossible to get away with falsified research, Gibson said. NIH sources said the accused scien- tist worked for Collins at the University, followed Collins to the NIH JOIN THE MOST PROMISING PROFESSION OF THE 21 ST CENTURY Prospective Teacher Education Meeting Thursday, November 7, 1996 6:00 p.m. Whitney Auditorium Room 1309 School of Education Building Call 764-7563 for more information. and then returned to the University to receive his doctorate. The existence of the Collins letter was first revealed yesterday in a story in the Chicago Tribune. The letter was released to The Associated Press only in response to a Freedom of Information Act application. Senior researchers at the NIH said the false information does not affect the basic findings that DNA breakage leads to creation of an abnormal protein that is related to leukemia. "Collins is an exceptional guy. It is a tragedy these things are happening to him," said Dr. Robert Adelstein of NIH, who co-authored one of the studies. "He is being very honest about it." In his letter, Collins said the junior scientist participated in research used in six papers published in some of the top scientific journals. "Five published manuscripts contain data which we now believe are not authentic;' Collins said in the letter. A sixth paper was not affected, he said. The fabrications were discovered when a reviewer, analyzing a seventh manuscript, found a flaw that Collins said "suggested intentional deception."

Huron research materials and doctoral disser- tation of the junior scientist revealed fabrications and Collins said the researcher "eventually confessed" to the falsehoods. "I am sure you must share a sense of shock and outrage at these events," Collins wrote. He added that some may wonder if he was paying sufficient attention to the junior scientist's research. "I had no evidence, in frequent inter- actions with the individual over the course of three years, to question his honesty," he said. The letter said that science cannot operate in an atmosphere of suspicion and that "those rare instances of dis- honesty" are usually revealed through the normal process of science. The papers being retracted were pub- lished in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, in Molecular and Cellular Biology and in Genomics. Collins said there is a partial retraction of another PNAS paper and of some data from a paper in Genes, Chromosomes & Cancer. - Daily Staf Reporter Chris Metinko contributed to this report. Yankees receive 'ticker-tape' parade NEW YORK - A wildly enthusias- tic crowd officially estimated at 3.5 million blanketed lower Manhattan yes- terday to shower the world champion New York Yankees with a blizzard of paper that Mayor Rudolph Giuliani exuberantly pronounced "the biggest and grandest parade ever," As throngs of people - stock bro- kers, school kids and other Yankee enthusiasts who've waited through an 18-year championship drought for this moment - cheered them on, the 1996 Yankees, who beat the Atlanta Braves four games to two in the World Series that ended here Saturday night, took their turn waving from floats as they rode up Broadway to city hall. "I've never seen a ticker-tape parade like this one, and I've been in a few of them," said Joe DiMaggio, the last of the mythic super heroes from the era, extending from the 1920s into the 1970s, when the Yankees effectively owned the franchise on major-league baseball championships. The route has been known as "the canyon of heroes" since early in the century when workers in the skyscraper towers of the surrounding financial dis- trict began the tradition of greeting 4iig- nitaries being honored at city hall. by tossing stock-market ticker tape.f their office windows. Experts: less than 55% of U.S. will vote WASHINGTON - Experts- -say less than 55 percent of eligible Americans will vote this electioAn alnd they have some theories on what t says about the world's most celeb - and maybe its most casual,- democracy. A century ago, 80 percent of Americans routinely voted. But in the last 30 years, turnout has gone down. From 64 percent in 160, when John F Kennedy was elected, it slid to just barely above 50 perent in 1988 before squiggling up to:5.5.2 percent four years ago.

The Los Angeles teen-ager heard the cries of other sur- vivors, the barking of search dogs and the rumble of equipment boring through the ruins. Yesterday, exhausted rescue workers pulled her and a friend from the rubble -bruised and bleeding, but alive. "I'm very tired," said Miksche, a 17- year-old Australian citizen who lives in Los Angeles. Her mother was among dozens of people still missing as the desperate search for survivors entered its third day. Hundreds of people waited near the wreckage, some demanding justice and others begging for their trapped friends and relatives to somehow emerge from the rubble. "Have mercy on us!" one man shout- ed. over the site, where a worker spayed disinfectant. Ten teen-agers sat in a cir- cle, each reading from the Koran. At times, some would cry or hug a com- panion, waiting for news about tra i relatives or friends.
