er said.
Recently, SRAC, OSCR and MSA
have disagreed on what types of amend-
ments and proposals should be included
in the student code of conduct. Members
of OSCR and SRAC have argued that
several of MSA's proposals are of a pro-
cedural nature and should not be included
in the code of conduct.
"(OSCR) is in favor of the amendments
that are left," said Keith Elkin, the direc-
tor of OSCR. "Where we differ is that on
four of them the question is whether or
not they belong in the statement. They
look more like implementing the policy
as oppose to the policy itself."
MSA can propose amendments to
the University's student code of conduct
every two years. The code's purpose is to
outline the University's expectations for
students and also to define what will hap-
pen to a student who violates the code.
that the language is clear and plain.
Driver said that in cities like Houston,
where MCRI had been forced to revise
the language of its initiative when collect-
ing signatures, people had voted against
the initiative because the wording made
it clear that it was a vote against affirma-
tive action.
Stephanie Newsone, a student from
Charles L. Spain Junior High School,
said she was happy to be part of the event
despite the cold weather.
"We wanted to support equality of our
nation and all nations that are segregated
from others. (We want to) stop segregat-
ing in America," Newsone said.
SPEAKER

"We must invest in smaller class sizes,
provide more technology and endow the
principals with the leadership to take on
these issues."
Cisneros also said in order for Ameri-
ca to enliven its urban centers, "we must
also reduce the contentiousness between
America's cities and suburbs."
For example, many major cities in the
Northern United States struggle with
problems such as homelessness and
lack of affordable housing. Historically,
these problems have stemmed from
the middle class workers leaving urban
centers and moving to the suburbs, said
Cisneros.
He added that recent developments in
several major cities, such as encourag-
ing the entertainment venues to relocate
to downtown areas, are causing many
who work in urban development to be
optimistic that middle class Americans
will once again return to these urban
areas.
"Chicago, which had lost population
for five censuses in a row, has now seen
their population increasing," he said.
He also pointed out cities such as
Houston, which he said boasts the
number one urban school system in the

second time at the show, and he vows
never to miss it.
"The atmosphere here is great. To be
a part of one of the world's biggest auto

The public opening followed a week

country.
"Detroit and Los Angeles are
rebuilding their central cities as
well," he said.
To open the lecture, Cisneros com-
memorated the history of the civil rights
movement, describing racial struggles
throughout the history of the United
States. He gave detailed descriptions of
African American tribulations during
the Atlantic Slave Trade, the Civil War,
Jim Crow Laws and the Civil Rights
Movement of the 1960s.
The 1956 Montgomery Bus Boy-
cott, he said, paved the way for King
to emerge as the nation's most promi-
nent civil rights leader. During the
boycott, African Americans in Mont-
gomery, Alabama "made the decision
to boycott the bus system until it would
change is (segregation) practices,"
Cisneros said.
He recounted how King organized
lectures and marchers to peacefully pro-
test the segregation laws. He described
the crossing of the Selma bridge, where
marchers were met by "vicious dogs and
fire hoses."
"Literally, old women (were being)
blown away by the full power of fire
hoses, tumbling across the street and
getting hurt," he said.
After King's assassination, Cisneros
23, is spread across 700,000 square
feet of the downtown arena. More
than 700 vehicles are on display,
many spinning slowly on elevated or
fenced-in turntables beneath giant
corporate logos.
A bright green Jeep hangs verti-
cally, as if scaling the huge rock wall
and waterfall behind it. Men crowd
around displayed engines and chassis,
pointing, explaining and quizzing, and
visitors aim digital cameras at concept
cars, interiors, insignia and friends who
climb behind the wheels.
said, public lawmakers responded by
"passing laws outlawing segregation in
so many places," and starting organi-
zations like Head Start and other early
childhood education programs.
Excited about Martin Luther King Jr.
Day, students and staff received the lec-
ture with enthusiasm.
"I thought he was really good. I want-
ed to hear what he had to say, especially
tying into equality," Kathy Friedrichs,
who works in the School of Engineering
and attends the memorial lecture annu-
ally, said.
While the memorial lecture was the
main event for the day, other prominent
speakers also visited the University
to speak in remembrance of Dr. King.
U.S Circuit Judge Harry Edwards spoke
this afternoon to a capacity crowd- at
Hutchins Hall. Edwards discussed his
latest article, "The Journey from Brown
v. Board of Education to Grutter v. Bol-
linger: From Racial Assimilation to
Diversity."
Taking lead from his educational
and professional background, Edwards
explored the evolution of racial rela-
tions in the United States. Society has
changed, he said, from an environment
where blacks were forced to assimilate
to white culture to a forum where diver-
sity is encouraged.
Diana Teng had a friend snap her
photo in the drivers seat of a $77,000
champagne-colored BMW 6-series
convertible. The 26-year-old health
department worker from Toronto has
been having trouble with the Mercedes
C-Class she bought last year, and is
keeping her eye out for something new.
She said the show is a great way to
get ideas.
"I don't come here to look at the cars
on the road," Teng said. Her criteria for
a new car? "Prettiness. And if it goes
fast, that's a bonus."

FOOD FOR THOUGHT
The Vietnam Protestors
Yung Krall, author of A Thou-
sand Tears Falling, is the
daughter of the Viet Cong
ambassador to Moscow. Yung
once told a UM audience that
North Vietnam was within
three days of surrender,
but the protest movement
forced a halt to the bombing
and the war dragged on
for years. Did the protes-
tors save or cost lives?
