The Michigan Daily - Tuesday, March 12, 2002 - 9 CARROLL Continued from Page 1 which he said is part of human nature and can all too easily lead to suspicion, contempt and hatred. He addressed the topic both with regard to past prej- udice against Jews and also in relation to Sept. 11. "This new era requires every religion and every reli- gious person to undertake an urgent new examination of conscience," he said. He also said it was important for Christians to do a much fuller job of confronting the history of Christian Anti-Semitism. He added that Christians and Jews can take hope from the fact that the Christian church has turned away from it. English Prof. Ralph Williams said he read Carroll's book and considers it "one of the most important issues not only of our times but of the last two millen- nia." "I think the chief issue he wanted to address was what he saw as the profound need for Christianity to rethink itself on the issue of their relationship to Jews and to repent not only as individuals but as an institutional community for its pro- found wrongs," Williams said. STRIKE Continued from Page 1 issues, such as child care and wages, were not dis- cussed. Members said they would not forget about those issues because it is important the new con- tract meets the needs of every person in GEO. "There are still groups out there that need our help. We will stay out as long as we need to make sure everyone gets a better contract," GEO member and Rackham student Irfan Nooruddin said at the closing rally, adding that the GEO will not back down on the remaining issues. "Issues of justice and principle can never be compromised." During the walk-out supporters stood near build- ing entrances in an attempt to speak with anybody who entered them. Picketers said they understood students' dilemmas about not attending class, but not all excuses were convincing. "We're getting the impression that some profes- sors are giving quizzes just to spite the union," Rackham student Wojciech Beltkiewicz said. "A lot of students have-been saying they have quizzes." Kinesiology junior Dan Eldred said he attended his classes in Angell Hall yesterday despite his per- sonal feelings about crossing the picket line. "I did feel a little guilty. I didn't make eye con- tact with them when I passed them because I knew that they would question me. I wanted to avoid being bothered," he said. Other students, including LSA sophomore Mar- tina Graef, who entered Angell Hall from an entrance connected to the Diag, said she did not run into any picketers at all. "There were students supporting the GEO out there but there was really no picket line that I had to cross," Graef said, adding that a picket line would not have changed her decision to attend class. "I would have crossed it. ... I know that there is a strike, but if the professor is holding class, I'm still responsible for the material." Department of Public Safety Spokeswoman Diane Brown said the strike ended without any legal misfortunes. "The picketers (were) cooperative and followed the officers' requests without complaint. We simply asked for voluntary compliance and did not have to take any additional measures," she said. BARGAINING Continued from Page 1 needs funds it can find them. "The work action is about getting them to move the money from some- where else to the pile of money for the contract," Picard said. "Make the pile bigger. Spend less on the President's House." She said the threat of a strike prompted the weekend's progress, after months of what she said were mostly fruitless negotiations. "Once they real- ized that we would (walk out), then they started giving us stuff," she said. Agreement on hiring procedures came with a commitment from the Uni- versity that GSIs will not be hired based on their financial needs. This would guarantee that bottom-line budgeting, which gives departments a flat amount of money to hire all GSIs and may result in preferential treatment for those with lower tuition costs, will not be used in hiring. GEO and the University also cre- ated a definition of harassment and a new, expedited procedure to address harassed GSIs' grievances. In addition, new contract language on affirmative action in hiring establishes a committee to oversee appointments, Picard said. In the area of international GSI testing, the University agreed national origin may not be the sole reason to test or train instructors. Picard said this provision guarantees that, if a department tests one appli- cant's communication skills, it must test those skills for all who apply. The University also agreed to contract language defining a graduate student. These agreements are tentative until being voted on by GEO on Sunday at GEO's membership meeting. At this meeting, members will either accept the contract as it stands after this week's negotiations or approve an indefinite strike beginning March 19.

DILLON Continued from Page 1 As she lost more weight, more people were willing to be her friends, and when she was 16, her skinniness was reward- ed again - someone said she should become a model. After a year and a half of modeling full time and obsessing about her weight, Dillon went home to San Diego to find a new joy and free- dom in herself and her body. "I started being liberated from the need to please others and fulfill others' ideals and started living by my own," she said. "I'm me, this is who and what I am." Dillon said she gained 50 pounds and realized she was actually normal, as opposed to "normal" according to the standards of the fashion and entertain- ment industry. She went to New York and became a plus-size model, an occu- pation she has held for six years. "I made a conscious decision to live my life without self-doubt and without apologizing to anyone for who I am," she said. She added that she wants to change the way women and beauty are perceived. "The media just bamboozles everybody everyday, by bombarding us with images and sounds in order to sell products," she said. "They feed us with that anxiety so they can sell us its antidote." She said American culture lacks a consistent healthy message of body image and that there is hypocrisy as far as the media sending double messages. "In a magazine, they'll have an article about me as a role model being myself, turn the page, and there's an article about how to lose 10 pounds before tomorrow morning to fit into your prom dress," she said. Dillon also said she feels society is going to change and has changed already in moving toward diversity in its models, but it still has a long way to go. She said there needs to be a shift in the collective consciousness of the con- sumer and that consumers need to take responsibility for their own actions and individuality. "The individual needs to question his or her own attachment to these ideals, standards and images," she said. Dillon added that she thinks once people start thinking for themselves it will lead to a healthier culture with a more diverse representation of humanity.
