Jerry Mattioli, a student who had participated in a candelight vigil for gay male and lesbian rights, reported that his room was set on fire and that threatening graffiti had been written about him on a campus bridge. Aryc Mosher, a member of the MSU Lesbian and Gay Council, said his car had been doused with gasoline Sunday night. MSU student Gary Zick, president of the Lansing Association for Human Rights, said the incidents were deliberate attacks on homosexual rights. Beth Smith, spokesperson for the Michigan State Department of Pub- lic Safety said yesterday that both incidents are still under investigation. Student anti-racist group forms BY LIZ PAIGE African American students from eight state colleges and universities have organized to discuss and take action on issues of institutionalized racism in higher education in Michigan. The Michigan Alliance of African American Students, which has been meeting since April 11, currently includes students from Michigan State, Wayne State, Eastern Michigan, Ferris State, University of Detroit, Oak- land, Washtenaw Community College, and the University of Michigan. The group acts as a support network for individual campus struggles and has the potential to coordinate statewide anti-racist action. The orga- nization hopes to work with high school students and the larger Michigan community, especially around the issue of access to the state's universi- ties. The Michigan Alliance of African American Students will discuss ac- cess to state schools, and the changes that must be made to meet the needs of people of color at its next meeting scheduled for June 10 in Ann Arbor. Judge interrupts defense council, postpones trial BY DIANE COOK The trial involving University students arrested while protesting the presidential inauguration of James Duderstadt came to an abrupt halt last Friday after only two hours of deliberation. Judge Peter Thomassen's decision to postpone the trial for two weeks came after he interrupted the council for the defense, Alexis Beck. Thomassen stopped Beck's line of questioning which addressed the use of force by the police department. Sandra Steingraber and Mike Fischer, both Ph.D. candidates, are charged with disturbing the peace; Steingraber is charged with assault and battery. Both have declined to comment while the trial is in progress. Steingraber was transported to the hospital because of injuries sus- tained during the October protest.
