Some student groups will participate in the University's commemoration while others will hold their own events. A pro-affir- mative action student group, By Any Means Necessary, will hold a civil rights confer- ence from Nov. 7 to Nov. 9. "The confer- ence will be a kick off to plan- ning the May 15 march," "...We have a opportunitytb expose the fa our society is segregated an the chance to the fulopron Brown." LSA senior and BA The Brown case began in 1950 after members of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People chapter in Topeka, Kan. decided to chal- lenge the "separate but equal" principle. In the effort of filing a class action suit against the Board of Education of Tope- ka Public Schools, 13 parents attempted to enroll their children in the schools. After the schools real refused enrollment, the parents were to 0 report to the NAACP .ct that to provide evidence for the class action still suit. As the suit made ad have its way to the Supreme Court, it realize was combined with . rother NAACP cases ise of from Delaware, Vir- ginia, South Carolina - Kate Stenvig and Washington. On MN organizer May 17, 1954, the Supreme Court unan- imously ruled, in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, that the "separate but equal" doctrine violated the Fourteenth Amendment and was unconstitutional. "There is a natural connection between Michigan and the Brown case," Serwach said. "A lot of people feel the Michigan cases are a part of the Brown legacy." AWAREN ESS Continued from Page 1A panel of converts to Islam sharing their experiences. "They are going to shed light a little more on the positive side (of Islam), a side that doesn't get touched upon in the media," Rana said. Rana said Islam Awareness Week also brings together the Muslim student com- munity and the campus community at large, bringing together individuals who might not otherwise have a lot of expo- sure to one another outside of classes. "You break out of your shell and talk to people you might not usually talk to;' Rana said, adding that he feels IAW is a good learning experience for everyone involved and promotes the exchange of ideas and perspectives. "They get a different perspective and they get to communicate with Muslims firsthand," Rana said. "They go to school with people who are Muslim but they don't really get a chance to talk to us or hear from us our perspective. They have certain built-in stereotypes about Muslims and so it's really good for us to communicate with each other and understand both sides of the realm a lit- tle bit better." As for why students should attend the lectures and participate in Islam Aware- ness Week, Rana said the educational opportunity is beneficial, and unlike the television students might otherwise be watching, not an everyday occurrence. "I would say they should go because in this day and age we hear so much about Islam and a lot of the stuff going on around us has a lot to do with Islam ... but often people aren't well-learned about it," Rana said. "It'd help people learn and they can have their questions answered, if they have any misconcep- tions or questions in general, it's a really good educational experience." LSA senior and BAMN organizer Kate Stenvig said. The march will be held in Washington to commemorate the Brown case. "Because it's the 50th anniversary, we have a real opportunity to expose the fact that our society is still segregated and have the chance to realize the full promise of Brown," Stenvig added. SIGMA CHI Continued from Page 1A were filled because the kidney failure that he experienced was a result of pledging activities - not drugs or alco- hol involvement. Oates said that the kid- ney failure was caused by severe muscle breakdown. "We have no evidence of a crime here, obviously the student was put through extraordinary rigorous activity, but there were no drugs and alcohol involved," Oates said. But Oates said there were major com- plications in their investigation of the case. Most importantly, he said the police were not alerted about the inci- dent until Sept. 23, two weeks after it occurred, and one week after the Univer- sity was notified. "The activity took place in the evening and morning of Sept. 10 and 11, (and) the University found out on Sept. 16. I found out Sept. 23, nearly two weeks after the occurrence," Oates said. University spokeswoman Julie Peter- son said that the University waited so long before contacting the police because their primary concern was not with criminal charges, but with the physical health of Loomis. "I think the University followed actions it felt appropriate given the circumstances. It acted from a disci- plinary standpoint once they got a better understanding of the situation," Peterson said.
