said that in Klein's eyes, "there are people in the
world who are good (Israelis) and there are people
who are bad (Palestinians).
"You can use this explanation for anything. Peo-
ple make racist arguments to explain things away.
Basically, until the bad people become good, we
don't have to treat them any better," Abunimah
added.
When the panelists were asked what their one
message to the University community would be,
both were clear about which point they wanted to
emphasize.
"University of Michigan - don't reward terror-
ism," Klein said. "Terrorists should know that they
won't get land. They won't get anything if they con-
tinue."
Abunimah asked the University community to
"understand that there are those in Israel as well as
Jews all over who don't' support the extremist view
of my opponent and their voices are not being
heard. People need to hear a wide range of views
and they did not get that in the pro-Israeli side
tonight," Abunimah said.
A number of Jews in attendance expressed
their distaste for Klein's opinions, saying Klein's

views were not indicative of all Jews. "Mr.
Klein's stance is not one that many progressive
Jews share," Rackham student Greg Epstein
said. "The pro-Palestinian side made some good
points. That's not to say that I agree with every-
thing he said, but he was right to say that this
particular speaker doesn't represent Jews, Israel
or Judaism. ... I don't feel like this man speaks
for me whatsoever."
Few events on campus are sponsored joint-
ly by pro-Palestinian and pro-Israeli groups,
and many people were unsure if the debate
would ease campus tension and promote
understanding. "I'm not sure it accomplished
anything, but if it accomplishes something,
let it be that both sides hear and actually lis-

David Wolkinson said.
"No matter what kind of event is sponsored,

nificant boost from the University's use of race as an admissions fac-
tor, Collins said he hopes CSP will be able to continue providing spe-
cialized classes and counseling if the Supreme Court rules the
policies unconstitutional.
Yesterday, the Supreme Court announced it will hear oral arguments
April lfor the two lawsuits that challenge its admissions policies in LSA
and the Law School.
Engineering sophomore Brandelyn Heath said some of her friends took
Summer Bridge classes, and they felt the program familiarized them with
the University but did not completely close the gap between them and
other students.
Through CSP, students can also take specialized sections of introducto-
ry courses in chemistry, English, mathematics and accounting during the

fall or winter terms. The program also provides nearly 2,000 participating
students - not all of whom are minorities - with tutoring and career
counseling.
Comprehensive studies Prof. Fran Zorn said many of the stu-
dents who attend her classes often felt in high school that teachers
and counselors did not care about their academic potential.
"If someone doesn't have the background and is willing to learn, I'm
willing to work with them," she said. "We at CSP believe in their poten-
tial and try to develop that."
Zorn said certain CSP seminars also focus on professional prepa-
ration and encourage students to decide which career they would
enjoy pursuing. "(Students) go on into medical school, pharmacy, public
health ... I feel I've had real success with people,"she said.
After enrolling in the CSP program and graduating from the Uni-
versity, a student Zorn knew went on to attend the University of Indi-
ana Law School.

ability to turn the economy around."
Also, Huth said Americans proba-
bly feel a lack of support for the
administration's plan of action in
the Middle East.
"The American public may feel the
administration is moving too hastily
toward a decision to initiate a militaryj
invasion," he said.
LSA sophomore Lance Betway said
he feels Americans are recognizing the
threat of war and are choosing to show
their disapproval of the Bush adminis-
tration.
"The voice of those who have sons
and daughters and brothers and sisters
and friends who can potentially be sent
off to die is finally loud enough to
compare with the constant roar of
those with the money," he said.

HOUSING

porch with her prospective tenant managers.
When the housemates initially viewed the con-
dition of the porch, they inquired about the safety
of the porch. However, their concerns were quick-
ly dismissed by the landlords, who told the house-
mates the porch was completely safe, Grady said.
Judy Paron, property manager for Oppen-
heimer, said responsibility for the accident lies
solely with the city.
"The city gave us a clean bill of health, so this
was something we were totally unaware of,"
Paron said, referring to the unsafe porch. "It's an
unfortunate circumstance, but there are no viola-
tions," Paron added.
Liz Sturgis of Arbor Maintenance, the repair sub-
contractor for Oppenhiemer, said all the city inspec-
tor orders of repair were made before the
housemates moved in. However, many of the main-
tenance problems the housemates reported when
they moved in were on the original inspector's
report, including non-functional door locks and
reinstallation of a fire escape.
"After the porch collapsed they said we were top
priority. It's sad that it takes a medical condition and
a huge incident like that to become top priority,"
Furtado said.
Still, the housemates lived with a caved-in
porch for more than five weeks before any
repairs were made to it, Furtado said. During
this time, Furtado was immobilized by her
cast and unable to leave the house through the
side door on her own.
Paron said the extensive lack of repair on the
porch is the fault of the insurance company.
Furtado's parents, Robert and Tess Furtado,
were angered by the treatment both they and
their daughter received from Oppenheimer fol-

lowing the accident, and said they plan to file a
lawsuit for damages.
"It seems like a clear case of negligence,"
said Tess Furtado, adding she has spent up to
$6,000 on medical costs, airplane fares and
other necessities since her daughter's accident.
She said Oppenheimer was very rude and
uncooperative with her and her husband when
they attempted to reconcile the affair with the
landlords.
"My husband was very put off by the landlord's
attitude with him over the phone. He calmly tried
to ask them to reduce the rent, as the lease stated
was permissible under special circumstances, but
they adamantly refused to give the kids any com-
pensation," Tess Furtado said.
Vanessa Furtado said that the experience shows
that student's voices often go unheard by the Uni-
versity, landlords and the city.
"All we wanted to do was communicate
with them and they kept putting us off. They
didn't want to talk to (me and my house-
mates) at all, which really made us feel not in
control of our situation," she said. "They
make you feel like you're asking for these
outrageous things, like you're spoiled chil-
dren making ridiculous demands, when they
are just little things that you hope will ensure
your safety and comfort."
Furtado and her parents said they were disap-
pointed by the lack of support they received from
the University.
"The University of Michigan is a wonderful
institution with a wonderful reputation," Tess
Furtado but these kids have unsafe living con-
ditions. You pay for the reputation. You pay for
the good education, so you assume that they
are going to be taken care of by the University
and by the city of Ann Arbor in safe housing
conditions."
