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 Continued from page 1 "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 AUTO SHOW Continued from page 1 holding out for the massive BMW 760i sedan, with a V12 engine and $117,995 sticker price. It's Winston's 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 shows - it's amazing," Winston said. The public opening followed a week of press, industry and charity previews. The show, which runs through Jan. 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."
