Yesterday resulted in the third straight day that the dollar's value declined in respect to the Japanese yen. This relationship is one of the key drivers of knocking the U.S. stock market down recently, along with the Tuesday report that the U.S. had a record trade deficit in July. When there is a weak dollar compared to a strong yen, it reduces the attractiveness of holding investments (U.S. stocks and bonds) denominated in dollars. Some analysts say that the recent selloff is due to the reemergence of Japan's economy rather than investors losing faith in the U.S. dollar. LAWSUITS Continued fromPage IA Dowdell shared an anecdote that she said demonstrated unawareness of issues to minority students on campus. Dowdell said that last semcstcr in a biology discussion sec- tion, her graduate student instructor asked each student an ice-breaker question. She said the GSI asked others questions such as what their favorite movie. But when the GSI turned to Dowdell - a black student -- the GSI asked what animal she thought she resembled most. "GSls need to be conscious, more sensitive and more aware of issues atTecting students of color," Dowdell said, blaming these sorts of incidents on a lack of campus integration. Shanta Driver, a second-year student at WSU's Law School, encouraged people to support the intervenors. "We urge everyone here to help build a new civil rihts movement," she said. Speaking about affirmative action. racism and other issues related to a movement for social equality was visi- blv intense for many present. Clasping her hands together and reaching her arms out to the audience, intervenor and Law third-year student Jodi Masley said "help us to define this attack because we have so much more to gain than to lose." Law third-year student Winnie Kao introduced the speakers calling the Law School admissions case an "historic event." She spoke about being underrepresented as an Asian American in the Law School, and said she knows of only two other law students of her ethnicity. DRIVERS Continuedfrom Page 1A have long histories ofdrunk driving. But Smith said that the number of drunk drivers in Washtenaw Countv and Ann Arbor are no greater than in other parts of the state. About 300 drunk drivers are arrested per year, O'Dell said. Of the 6.9 million licensed drivers in the state, this law is really only geared at 2 to 3 percent of the driving popula- tion, Boyd said. In the past year there have been 17 arrests on campus for drunk driving. said ILt, Bob Nctamann. a1 I!qcpatmcnt of Puabliac Sevo ffacial eamn added that "there are way too many people drising With suspendcd. lieenses "I think the only way to take care of It Is to take away their car," he said Smith said that she expects this law to finally show drunk drivers that their behavior will not be toler- ated "WNe are actually saying that enough is enough," Smith said. -- Dai/r S arf : Rcportr;s Nidi, Bunk/c and Vic ' lar/c )o1nirr7i/r d to this TICKETS Continued from Page 1A Students wait in line for "10,.20 min- utes at the most," said Chris l.udwig, a ticket broker at the University of Wisconsin. "It guarantees that all students have seats and guarantees that upperclass- men get better seats," he said. Indiana began using the vouchers this season. The school has no preferential treatment for students with seniority. Despite the growing popularity of this system, the ticket soucher trend does not appear to be catching at the Big House. Martin Bodnar, head of the Unis ersity of Michigan's Athletic Ticket Office, said that to his knowl- edge, the University has no plans to use a similar voucher sv stem. "We just try to make sure all the stu- dents have tickets," lie said. )OWhat is the Dow Jones Industrial Average? The DJIA represents 30 stocks traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NY SE) and are all major factors in their respective industries. These stocks are widely held by individuals and institutional investors. Many financial advisers think of it as a good indicator in telling whether the NYSE is doing well or poorly. What is the NASDAQ Composite? The NASDAQ is the fastest growing stock market in the U.S. due to it being a screen-based stock market, compared to a trading floor market like the NYSE. It also has almost all of the technological stocks available for trading, which has proved to be a very volatile industry in the last few years. 'What is the S&P 500? The S&P 500 is a marketvalue weighted index composed of 400 indus- trial stocks, 20 transportation, 40 financial, and 40 utility. It is a far broader measure than the DJIA because it takes into account 500 different stocks traded on the two main exchanges (NYSE and NASDAQ-AMEX) compared to the DJIA's 30 all traded on the NYSE.
