Behrend
professor to
speak on
arms race
"The arms race is complete
madness. It is irresponsible... and
makes us less secure and not
more secure," said Corbin
Fowler, assistant professor of
Philosophy at Behrend. "Ninety
seven percent of high level
nuclear waste comes from
making bombs, not energy."
Professor Fowler will be
giving a lecture on nuclear arms
for the general public tonight.
Fowler says that anyone with
the will and the money can buy
uranium and plutonium on the
Black Market. That includes
People not entirely friendly to the
United States and our allies.
He also stated that "Nuclear
deterrents do not work," and plans
to cite examples in his talk.
Fowler has given
presentations at international
conferences around the world in
such countries as the Netherlands,
Yugoslavia, and here in the
United States.
He has also published a book
titled The Logic of United States
Nuclear Weapons Policy.
Fowler's lecture begins at

Special restrictions imposed on minority students
Brown University requires special ID checks for minority students
(CPS)-- While officials at five
other campuses around the
country rushed to dampen
inflamed racial sensitivities
among their students, Brown
University administrators
imposed special restrictions on
their minority students for
Parents Weekend October 20-22.
Hoping to stop a season-long
series of violent attacks on white
and Asian students, Brown
canceled black student social
events, imposed special
identification checks for minority
students trying to get into other
social events, and even
"considered" asking for federal
help to stop the crime wave.
The officials canceled two
October 20 social events that
would have been attended by
black students, but let
predominantly white events go
on.
At least 19 students, 17 from
Brown and two visiting students
from Vassar College in New
York, have been attacked since
the start of this semester.
Though several of the students
-have been hospitalized, their
injuries weren't serious.
The victims described their
attackers as Black or Hispanic
teens too young to be college
students at the Providence, Rhode
Island, university.
"Some =of th 6 assaulfs
have been moth/a& itialtfOiy
racism," speculated Dean of

Student Life John Robinson.
"Part of it also may be motivated
by class."
The victim--mostly males, all
of them white or Asian--"are
people who (look like people
who) have traditionally occupied
positions of power," added junior
Tracy Robert.
Robert said Brown students
generally have not panicked.
"There's been curious lack of
anger."
Administrators contemplating
the arrival of parents, however,
urgently tried to prevent any
more attacks during Parents
Weekend.
Brown President Vartan
Gregorian said he considered
asking for federal help to protect
the students. Robinson and
Student Activities Director Tom
Forsberg, in turn, altered the
social schedule.
The school canceled Funk
Nite, a popular weekly campus
dance, and a party sponsored by
Omega Psi Phi, a black
fraternity.
Forsberg said the events were
canceled because non-students
allegedly involved in the assualts
have been attending Brown social
events on campus.
Robinson announced strict
student identification card checks
at the other events, warning that
black and hispaniestiidentsiveruld
face more extensive checks that
white and Asian students.

Al-Yasha Williams of the
Brown Organization of United
African Peoples said the ID
checks haven't been a problem.
She also said she wasn't upset
that a black fraternity party was
canceled while white fraternity
parties were allowed, although
she doesn't think it will help.
"If the outside community
wants to come in, they're going
to be able to, "she said. "I think
we're going to have to explore
Brown's relationship with the
Providence community."
Officials at other campuses,
howver, have moved quickly to
avoid even the appearance of
tolerating insensitivity to, much
less different treatment of, their
minority students in recent
weeks.

promised to probe the behavior of

At the University of
Mississippi, the state National

demand followed a September

black campus.

involved, and punished 14
