it is a positive experience, they are
likely to tell their friends," he said.
For a trip to Detroit, it is suggested
that students purchase tickets in advance
at the Michigan Union Ticket Office.
Students may also use their Mcards to
buy walk-on seats, but space is limited
for students without a reservation.
An Mcard is used to buy return trip
tickets on a first-come, first-served
basis. Cards are swiped on the bus and
charged to the holder's student account.
"I think it's a helpful service," said
LSA sophomore Bruna Barbosa. "It's
cheap, on time and comfortable."
The cost of a ticket to the airport is
$7, while a return trip costs $10. Airbus
makes trips to the Detroit Metro Airport
from Dec. 16 to Dec. 23 and provides
rides back to campus for the two days
before classes start in January. Airbus
has pickup locations in the Hill area,
North Campus and Central Campus.
"It was run efficiently, and I was
pleased," Gottlieb said. "Seven
bucks is a lot better than 50 (for
a cab)."

ter's degree, Jan Choike, a software engineering
and economics major, plans to continue research
with his professor.
Having studied abroad in Sweden and
been a student ambassador for foreign stu-
dents, Choike passed on some advice: "Try
to become involved in whatever activities are
available because it will define the quality of
the memories you have about your time at the

University."
Still others have different plans after gradua-
tion. Psychology major Keri Myers will also pur-
sue her master's degree starting next summer at
Penn State University, taking a brief detour in
January, when she will get married.
Keri said she would most miss "the incredible
friendships and community that I found."
She added, "I learned the freedom that comes
with being real and vulnerable with people and
discovered the amazing friendships that can
result."

on charges of indecent exposure. dent at the University.
"The charges are very serious and very alarm-
ing," Carr said in a statement at the time of the
suspension. - Ian Herbert contributed to this report.

LENNON
Continued from page 1
Crisler Arena. He and Ono played a benefit con-
cert advocating for the release of local political
activist John Sinclair, who had been sentenced to
10 years in prison for selling two joints of mari-
juana. Lennon performed a song called "John
Sinclair," which later appeared on his album
Sometime in New York City. The Michigan
Supreme Court freed Sinclair three days later.
The exhibit culls more than 100 pieces of Len-
non's artwork produced between 1968 and 1980.
"Most of the people that come to the exhibit
didn't know he was also an artist, so they are
blown away by the volume of pieces we have,"
Siegal said. "Usually we have (more than) 100
pieces on display, but the amount of artwork
is consumable for the masses. Because it's line-
drawing, pen-and-ink sketches, even if you are
the most high-falutin' art snob, whether you are
five or 85, you can enjoy it. If you've never been
to a gallery before, you can enjoy it," Siegal said.
Though Lennon never received much recogni-
tion for his visual art, he had a unique style that
mirrored his more famous musical talents. Simple
and succinct, rendered with enthusiasm and speed,
Lennon's sketches capture his complex emotions
through nothing more than pen and paper.
Still, his artwork has been the subject of

controversy. In 1970, London police raided a
Lennon exhibition and seized some drawings
depicting sex acts. Lennon's defense team
produced similar works by Pablo Picasso and
argued before a magistrate court that Lennon's
work was no more obscene than Picasso's.
Some of the seized pieces are on display at "So
This Is Xmas."
Beyond their historical significance, Ono
said Lennon's art is especially important in
light of recent events. "Love was the main
theme," she said in a written statement. "It was
the main motivation. The main drive. I think
that we need a lot of that today. And there's a
scarcity of that right now. I'd like to sort of cir-
culate that more in the world, and I think that
John's art exhibition is good for that, too."
In 1968, Lennon said, "If art were to redeem
man, it could do so only by saving him from
the seriousness of life and restoring him to an
unexpected boyishness."
So young or old, casual Lennon fan or
Beatles obsessive, check out "So This Is
Xmas" while you can. Although there is no
cover charge, there is a suggested donation
of $2, which will go to Dawn Farms, a local
rehab and recovery center. Siegal urged those
who enjoy the exhibit to be generous. "We
are lucky enough in that we are able to raise
money for various causes," he said.

Republicans.
Canvassers also deadlocked on motions to
throw out the petitions and to investigate alle-
gations of fraud. The Court of Appeals said the
canvassers do not have the authority to investi-

gate the fraud allegations.
Opponents of the proposal have said an unde-
termined number of signatures were gathered
by misinformation about the initiative's goals.
BAMN says some black people were tricked
into signing a petition they thought would pro-
tect affirmative action programs.
MCRI denies the fraud allegations.

ARIES
(March 21 to April 19)
This is a good day to discuss how to
provide for children - their care and
their education. It's also a good day to
make plans for future vacations.
TAURUS
(April 20 to May 20)
Discussions with partners are quite
sensible today. You see what needs to be
done, and yet you feel optimistic and
positive about everything.
GEMINI
(May 21 to June 20)
For whatever reason, your confidence
is restored today. You see that your wor-
ries were unfounded, and your future
looks much brighter than you thought.
Great!
CANCER
(June 21 to July 22)
It's easy for you to find a nice balance
between work and play now. In the same
way, you can also find a good balance
between spending money for fun and
saving for your long-term future.
LEO
(July 23 to Aug. 22)
You're starting to see that you're
going to change certain standards of
behavior. You see that something no
longer applies to you. You're going in a
whole new direction.
VIRGO
(Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)

respect to your earnings.
SCORPIO
(Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)
You're seeking a kind of balance right
now. You might have to go forward
somewhere and yet pull back some-
where else. It's a soft-shoe shuffle.
SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 22 to Dec. 21)
Others expect you to come up with a
solution for things today. You probably
can. But don't be hasty. Don't shoot
from the hip.
CAPRICORN
(Dec. 22 to Jan. 19)
You might be able to encourage
friends and groups to pool their
resources for a good cause. Cooperation
can definitely pay off now. (You're the
one to make this happen.)
AQUARIUS
(Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)
This is a good day to resolve differ-
ences with partners. You're in the mood
to compromise because you see that if
you give on the right, you will get on the
left. It's fair.
PISCES
(Feb. 19 to March 20)
Your approach to education, travel and
publishing matters is very sensible
today. You see the big picture, but you
also see the basic tasks required. You did
your homework.
YOU BORN TODAY You're talented
and artistic. You want to be a hero to oth-
