The protesters had been living in the tree for 21 months in an attempt to prevent the school from building a $125-million athletic center on a plot of land with 42 redwood trees. The protesters were arrested and face charges for trespassing and vio- lating a court order. A California court of appeals ruled that the University could begin build- ing last week. University officials have agreed to plant three trees for each one they cut down. NO DEGREE FOR YOU The Michigan State University Board of Trustees revoked an honor- ary degree given to Zimbabwe Presi- dent Robert Mugabe, the Lansing State Journal reported. MSU's student government has been pressuring the Board to revoke the degree for the past 3 years. The Board had never complied, saying there was no protocol for the retrac- tion of a degree. But President Anna Lou Simon asked earlier this year that Mugabe's degree be reconsidered. The final resolution, passed unani- mously by the Board, said "Mugabe's persistent acts of violence, aggression and intimidation and his pattern of wanton disregard for human life, even in the face of substantive and regular international rebuke, leave Michigan State University no choice but to act." The University of Edinburgh revoked Mugabe's degree last year, while the University of Massachu- setts did the same in June. PRIEST ARRESTED FOR COKE A Catholic priest has been charged with selling and using cocaine on the University of Illinois campus, the News-Gazette reported. Rev. Christopher Layden pleaded innocent to two counts of selling near a church and another count of pos- session near a church, which carries more severe penalties. Layden had been working with the Newman Center on campus. He was ordained as a priest in 2001. Police arrested Layden after an informant led them to issue a search warrant, saying he used cocaine "40 to 50 times" with Layden in the past 7 months. CPR TRAINING FOR ALL Emory University's Emergency Medical Services has decided to train the entire freshman class in CPR, the Chronicle of Higher Education reported. EMS hopes to make students more aware of the services EMS offers. "We want to create awareness that we exist and make them feel comfort- able about utilizing us," said senior Kevin Smith, chief of EMS. EMS technicians have incorporat- ed the training into freshman orienta- tion, using CPR dummies.
