ful," Rivers said.
The Founding Fathers understood that the
power of the Federal government was so much
greater than any individual, there had to be pro-
tection, Rivers said.
"Because we are afraid, we are abandoning
these sacred protections," Rivers said. "The aver-

age person doesn't understand why this is wrong."
Steinberg urged the audience not to "feed into
unfair stereotypes of people ... and guard
against knee-jerk reactions."
He said he feels such conduct "destroys trust
between law enforcement and the very people
who could help."

Steinberg said writing to Congress and the
Immigration and Naturalization Service is one
way citizens can help Haddad, but it will proba-
bly be a long and difficult process.
SAFE planned the event, but it also received
some funding from other student groups.
"Last night we made a lot more fliers and a
program within the last two hours because of
Michigan Student Assembly funding," Kiblawi
said.

"Secrecy in judicial proceedings is
concept to the U.S.," Steinberg said.

well as DVD."
Others, such as book lover Sumari
Mayor, said the high sales numbers
weren't merely a result of the gift-
giving season.
"The holiday season is just an
excuse to buy a gift for somebody,"
said Mayor, who is visiting Ann
Arbor from South Africa with her
husband, a University fellow. She
said she believes books have become
more popular world-wide because
"people's value systems have
changed."
Ironically, Mayor said she thinks
the struggling economy is at least
partly responsible for th increase in
book sales.
"It's a whole economical experi-
ence," she said, adding that Ameri-

cans especially have a reason for
wanting more bang for their buck
after Sept. 11.
"When they buy gifts, they want
something more tangible. They are
looking to find more meaning in life
... when people spend money, they
want to spend it on something worth-
while," she said.
At Borders and Shaman Drum,
book sales decreased immediately
following Sept. 11 and didn't start
rising again until November.
"I (attribute) that to people paying
more attention to the media. ...
Newspapers and online sources took
up a lot of their time," Rohlen said.
But now, she added, "people have
turned to literature to get over what
happened."
Not everybody can come up with a
reason for reading, and some new
book enthusiasts said there wasn't

one.
LSA freshman Laura Kline said
she never read in high school but
now stops by area bookshops at least
once a week. She said doesn't know
a precise reason for the change.
"On the way home from class, I'll
just stop in and stay here for awhile,
reading," she said, adding that there
aren't many bookstores or opportuni-
ties for reading in her hometown. "I
just like coming here and reading.
It's relaxing."
Some experts agree with Mayor.
In its 2002 book report, the maga-
zine "Pages" outlined some reasons
for why book buying doesn't
decrease with the economy.
According to the report, "The
business of books continues to be
one in which American consumers
revel, and reading continues to be a
freedom we all share and enjoy."

SNOW
Continued from Page :A
caused dozens of accidents reported to
the Washtenaw County Sheriff's
Department, including at least one crash
with injuries, although no further infor-
mation was available last night.
Ann Arbor Police had only responded
to one spinout within a few hours of the
snowfall, but Sgt. Brian Jatczak said he
expected many more.-
Back on campus, the annual quest for
bragging rights between the two resi-
dence halls began around 8:45 last
night, and by 9 it was a full-blown bat-
tle. By 9:15, it was a war.
While South Quad may have appeared
to have the edge early on, its neighbor
across the street emerged victorious.
"We didn't do anything like this," said
LSA sophomore Claire Stanow, a recent
transfer from. Kalamazoo College.
"There was a lot of streaking, but no
snowball fights."
"I got knocked on mybutt by some-
one on this side," added Stanow, in her
second week of living in South Quad.
At 9 p.m., Stanow's South Quad
seemed to have the edge, outnumbering
its cross-street rival three to one. It had
made several major assaults on West
Quad; West Quad had made only one.
In an atmosphere thick with flying
snow and noisy chaos, charges were led
by foot soldiers as well as one individual
with a megaphone shouting from the
upper floors of South Quad.
By 9:15 West Quad had as many -
if not more - troops than its opponent
and began launching charge after
charge, all of them unsuccessful.
The "troops" would crouch behind
cars parked on the street, throwing a
snowball across the windshield.
But students from both sides appar-
ently had a common enemy. When a
Department of Public Safety vehicle
drove through the street it was pelted
many times over with the best both sides
could muster. Other vehicles, including
a Night Owl bus, were subjected to the
same treatment.
"I come back here every year," said
former West Quad resident Ike Okenwa,
a Kinesiology senior who now lives on
South Fifth Avenue. "I wouldn't miss it
for the world."
By 9:30, out of snow on their side of
the street, South Quad residents retreat-
ed into the courtyard where they loaded
trash cans with snow and resupplied
their troops on the Madison Street front.
West Quad declared victory by 10.

DEBBIE MIZEL/Daily
LSA juniors Laurin Gracey and Alicia Hall gather travel information at STA Travel in
the Michigan Union yesterday. Wherever they go, they are likely to face travel
delays as airports scramble to meet new security regulations.

SECURITY
Continued from Page1A
removed before the plane can leave
the gate. In theory, this method will
deter potential terrorists from walk-
ing away after checking a suitcase
that contains a bomb.
The problem arises when people
check their bags and then go out to
have a cigarette or miss their flights
for some other reason, said Detroit
Metropolitan Airport spokesman
Len Singer. The bags must be iden-
tified and removed from the plane
and then held until someone claims
them.
"It is this final step in the process,
when the flight is getting ready to
leave, where I think the most delays
will take place," Singer said.
Frequent flier Charlie Corbin,
branch manager of STA Travel,
adds that bag matching will not pre-
vent any suicidal person from
checking their bomb-laden suitcase
and boarding the plane.
Corbin, who has flown both
domestically and internationally
since the terrorist attacks on Sept.
11, is not looking forward to flying
to San Francisco in two weeks.

"It doesn't sound like the airlirfes
are prepared to meet the new regux-
lations yet," he said. "Everyone just
isn't on the same page. Hub cities
like Detroit, Chicago, and New
York may be OK, but small cities
are just not equipped."
Although security reasons prevent
airlines from disclosing the specific
details of their plans to meet the
new standards, Jim Light, director
of corporate security at Spirit Ai-
lines, is confident that the airlines
are in good shape.
"In an effort to meet the Decein-
ber 31 deadline, security measures
have gotten more thorough every
week - every day,,even. It's nut
going to be like the good old days
where you can throw your hag on
the conveyor belt," he said.
Despite the hassle the security
standards will create, Corbin still
plans on traveling often.
"I guess I'll just have to take my
chances. But I wish security would
use more common sense. I see them
checking people wearing penry
loafers but not stopping peopA
wearing hiking boots. What are yau
going to put in a penny loafer?"

CURRY
Continued from Page 1A
this incident is resolved Curry will go
back to the football team next fall.
"I would hope that given this reso-
lution that we've reached, he's eligible
for reinstatement. I would hope that is
what happens," said Fishman.
Commenting on the likelihood of
Curry returning to the team, Fishman
said that the decision was not up to
him, but added, "Coach Carr has
always shown very good judgment in
disciplinary action."
A sentencing hearing will be held
Feb. 14 at 9 a.m. at the Washtenaw
County Courthouse. The maximum

sentence for assault with no battery
is 90 days in prison. However, in
Curry's case, there is a likelihood ef
a probationary period with no ja4l
time.
Assistant Prosecutor Lela Rashid
said her office is investigating Curryfs
case, and it is too early to comment
on what sort of the punishment the
prosecutor would recommend to the
judge.
"Probation does a pre-sentence
report, and then the prosecutor will
take a look at it, and then we'll sUp-
port it or we'll ask the court to devi-
ate it," Rashid said.
Curry is the younger brother of
junior safety Julius Curry.
