"We have had a number of meetings addressing the issue and other concerns that people may have," Jolley said. "The allegations of an institutional racism at the university are going way overboard. "Whether or not there was any racial motivation involved in Johnson's arrest is being looked at," said Jolley, who is black. "Personally, I believe that the police officers are doing their job, and what happens is sometimes misrepre- sented. A police officer went into a vola- tile situation and tried to gain control." John McAuliffe, director of EMU's campus police, would not comment on the case because it is currently in progress and under investigation. Vick said the administration is put- ting a concerted effort into learning what happened during the Nov. 7 inci- dent. He said that students may be jump- ing to conclusions about it being either a racial issue or a police brutality issue. "Students on our campus have de- scribed it as police brutality," Vick said. "When an officer is white and the stu- dents are black, there is the propensity for the issue of race to come up." - Daily Staff Reporter Eugene Bowen contributed to this report. CODE Continued from Page 1 meeting on a matter of policy, weighted with everything else - would that be the thing that tipped the scale? My guess is no." Mary Rave, chair of the American Civil Liberties Union's Washtenaw County branch, said although Duderstadt underscored the importance of the ac- creditation, the new Code does not even reflect qualities mentioned in the report. "The code that the accreditation re- port refers to is a wholly different sort of code than the code they passed," Rave said. "(The code in the report) is one of ethical practices,not illegal practices." The recommendation in the report also calls for a code covering "students, fac- ulty, and staff," but the University's Code is only extended to students, Rave noted. Hartford said the University has not considered such a broad code since 1990. "1 think that there was probably a discussion of a code of that sort," she said. "We don't have a universal code, but most universities don't have a uni- versal code." The ACLU plans to discuss the ac- creditation report at its meeting Sunday. Rave said the organization will ask the regents to re-consider adopting the Code on the basis that they were misinformed. ~.' ',', 4 Oregon: Mail-in state election a success PORTLAND, Ore. - Even before the votes were counted yesterday in-the nation's first mail-in congressional election, officials declared a winner: thestat Voter turnout was up and the state saved more than $1 million by trading the ballot box for the mailbox in primary elections for the seat of Sen. Bob Packwoe4, the Republican who resigned in a sex scandal. About 1.5 million ballots were sent out three weeks ago. By Monday night, 52 percent of the ballots had been returned to election officials. That compares witi 43.3 percent of voters who took part in Oregon primaries last year. Secretary of State Phil Keisling estimated the election will cost between S.k million and $1.8 million, about half the cost of having voters go to the polls. "Oregonians are making vote-by-mail a success," said Keisling, who proposed mail-in ballots. "This reflects their commitment to elections with high integrity and high turnout." Fivermajor contenders were vying for Oregon's first open Senate seat in nearly 30 years. On the Democratic side, Reps. Ron Wyden and Peter DeFazio waged a tough fight for their party's nomination. In the GOP race, Oregon Senate President Gordon Smith faced state Schoo Superintendent Norma Paulus and state Labor Commissioner Jack Roberts.

Govt. identifies retailers who sell sweatshop goods WASHINGTON - While there could be big profits in selling sweat- shop-made apparel, some retailers are trying to eradicate such workplaces, and they got a boost yesterday when the government publicly identified them. A consumer group is urging holiday shoppers to patronize these stores, but retail trade associations say the list ex- cludes many companies that should have been mentioned, including some of the nation's largest and best-known retailers. The Labor Department's Fair Labor Trendsetters list named 31 retailers ac- tively working to ensure the clothing they sell is made in shops complying with federal wage and hour laws. The list included retailers from Abercrombie & Fitch to Victoria's Se- cret. Absent, however, were many major retailers, including J.C. Penney, Kmart, Montgomery Ward and Sears Roebuck. Many of the companies not included have signed the National Retail Federation's Statement of Principles committing them to "legal complianc and ethical business practices" in tb apparel industry.
