The discussion was sponsored by SNRE instructor Andy Duncan and stu- dents in his class titled "Greening the Maize and Blue." "Too many times we wait until some- thing happens and then we decide to react," said panelist Douglas Faising, manager of Grounds and Waste Man- agement. Panelist Harrison Morton, SNRE's associate dean, said that although the University does not take enough pre- ventative measures, it is "quite good at looking after safety and environmental concerns." James Christenson, director of Uni- versity plant operations, cited several positive measures that the University has taken for the environment. Since reforms implemented in the early 1970s, Christenson said that the University has saved $78 million through energy con- servation efforts. He also spoke favor- ably of the busing system and recycling efforts, which amount to 200 tons of material recycled at the University each year. The panel also expressed concern over the Value Centered Management policy, which is a budgeting system that also calls for a more decentralized decision-making process at the Univer- sity. Morton said that he worried that such changesin University policy would cause an "extreme pressure to watch the bottom line." Such pressure could cause people forget"the common good," Morton said. "We're going to have to find ways to work smart because the money is just not going to be there for some things," Faising added. As a way to improve the environ- mental status on campus, the panel agreed that the University should take actions to increase student involvement and communication among University levels. Morton said that the University "needs help at identifying concerns" and agreed that students, faculty and administrators have to "come together as a University community to create a forum for people to voice their concerns." "I think that students are an extremely valuable resource," said panelist Jonathan Kazmierski, an SNRE sopho- more taking the class. "(But we need) a direct avenue of communication so that they can become more involved." "We don't talk to each other enough that we really work effectively," Faising said. Without sufficient communica- tion, "you're left to the trivances of engineers and architects," he added in reference to the construction on cam- pus. SNRE senior Mike Newman, another student in the class, said that construc- tion on campus carried out by the ad- ministration without the consultation of students and faculty "sometimes makes it hard to trust the University." Christenson identified a solution to environmental problems on campus as "taking care ofthe place as if it were our own." By Jeff Eldridge Daily Staff Reporter Residents and staff at the Alice Lloyd residence hall began two new contributions to the Names Project AIDS Memorial Quilt last night. The subjects for the quilt brought the disease close to home: One of the squares was dedicated to the brother of an Alice Lloyd employee and the other was made in memory of Aiathony Lynch, an acquaintance of Alice Lloyd resident adviser Matt Austin. "He was interested in antiques and was a huge Mickey Mouse fan," Avastin said. "We're trying to incorporate that into the quilt. Combining the two is a challenge." "This was siomething I've wanted to do," said John Kiplinger, a Rackham student and the head librarian for Alice Lloyd. "This seemed like a more personal way to get involved than going to a speech or participating in a march." Liz Prince, coordinator of residence education, said it was importanit for students to have greater awareness of the disease. "Students believe, 'Oh, it can never happen to me,"' Prince said. "But chances are, there are people in this building with HIV." Prince said it was difficult to find a former student as a subject for a square. "We tried to get the name of a former student at the University, blot the family members said no because they Thisws something that I've wanted to do,. This seeed ikea morepersonal way to get involved than going to a speech or participating in a march." -John Kiplinger Rackham student and Alice Lloyd librarian didn't want people to assume their son was gay," Prince said. Organizers are hoping to raise $200 as a donation for the Names Project. "It costs them money to send this sort of stuff all over the country," Prince said. Alice Lloyd's other activities for AIDS Awareness Week included tying red ribbons to trees in front of the building and a large display in the front lobby. LSA first-year student Wendy Ware said she was drawn to participate on the basis of past experiences. "I've had a friend that died of AIDS, and I know other people with AIDS," she said. .4 3 Great Lakes tribe dancers to perform for Native American Heritage Month great scores...

The Two Hawk Singers and Danc- ers dance troupe and drum circle is composed-of members of the Ojibwe, Ottawa awd Potawatomi tribes, and will be performing traditional tribal dances accompanied by a drum circle. One of the dances scheduled to be performed is the Jingle Cone dance, which is a healing dance tradition- ally perf*rmed by women. The danc- ers are attired in outfits of pressed tin. "The lhealing dance is very impor- tant," said George Martin, a member of the Ojibwe tribe that will be per- forming. Martin said the dance is typi- cally performed for specific people who are sick. Also to be performed is the men's traditional dance, which Martin said is the "oldest dance known to man." "All the things we wear (for this dance) were given to us to use," he said, referring to the outfit of bear and deer skins and eagle feathers. Each dance is accompanied by its own song performed by the drum circle. The drummers chant as the dancers perform. The songs performed tonight are in the Ojibwe and Ottawa languages. Finally, an intertribal dance will be performed, in which all tribes dance together. RC senior Sara Pasky, who scheduled the troupe to perform, said this is "done as a symbol of unity." "Everywhere we go (to perform) is important to teach the traditions," Martin said. The performance is scheduled for 7:30 tonight in East Quad's south cafeteria. Theperformance isfree and open to the public.
