FRIDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1982 Leaflets May Violate Residence Statutes Miami Hurrieane/JORGE GONZALEZ Congressional Candidate Glenn Rinker Answers Questions Wednesday Afternoon On The Patio By GEORGE HAJ Hurricane News Editor Leaflets urging students to vote for congressional candidate Glenn Rinker may have been distributed in violation of residence halls policies, said residence halls officials. USBG Senator Eric Gebaide also challenged whether distribution of such political literature might harm UM’s tax exempt status. The leaflets, which urged students to vote for Rinker in the mock election sponsored by USBG Wednesday, were placed under dorm doors and in their Jambs, and in the mailboxes of the Mahoney-Pearson complex. Distribution took place either Tuesday night or Wednesday morning; it was done without any authorization from residence halls personnel. Gebaide's concern, expressed in a memo sent to Dean William Sandler, is that “distribution of political literature in mailboxes is not in conformance with existing regulations The leaflets, which extolled the virtues of Rinker and urged students to vote for him in the mock election, were distributed under the auspices of the College Republicans. The leaflet was written by Marc Cannon. Since no literature Is permitted to be placed in mailboxes without express consent of administrators, and none was given, Gebaide wrote to Sandler that: “Either Mr. Cannon or one of his associates were permitted behind the desk, or the residence halls personnel placed [the leaflets] in the boxes for him. "The first situation would surely pose security problems for who knows what Mr. Cannon or an associate might place or take out of a student’s mailbox.” Gebaide also charged that University employees may have distributed the literature. “Either that or ' residence halls personnel took time out from their other duties to distribute this literature,” he said. Gebaide wrote that both UM’s tax exempt status and government funding could be jeopardized by the action. The .Hurricane was unable to verify the Impact of such distribution with University officials late Thursday. Several hundred leaflets were distributed across campus, although the figures vary. Mike Johns, president of the College Republicans, said between 700 and 1,000 leaflets were distributed. However. Cannon stated that between 250 and 500 leaflets were distributed. Gebaide said that the leaflets were put “in every Mahoney-Pear-son mailbox, as far as I know.” Soviet Jewry Holds Hunger Strike By TRISHA SINDLER Hurricane Staff Writer The Issue of a repressed Soviet Jewry has long been a concern of Iree-world nations. Now, with Jewish Soviet emigration at an all-time low, it is a concern at the University of Miami. To bring awareness to the existing plight of Jews wishing for, yet being denied, the right to leave Russia. a 10-kilometer walk-a-thon will take place at 1 p.m. this Sunday. Su-Su Silberberg, chairperson of World Jewry Week (which took place this past week), estimated that 500 people will participate In the walk-a-thon. "One of the main focuses of the walk-a-thon is to bring attention to the situation of Jews in the Soviet Union who can’t get out,” said Silberberg. "For instance, Anatoly Scharansky, who has been trying to leave Russia for ten years, has been on a hunger strike unsuccessfully since Yom Kippur, the evening of September 26.” Recently, Scharansky has been denied the right to receive incoming letters from family members, and his health has been deteriorating. UM student Elisabeth Cohn started a Soviet Jewry group on campus last January. This group, operating under the auspices of Hillel and the Jewish Student Union (JSU), has succeeded in adopting a family in the Soviet Union and publicizing the Soviet Jewish plight on the UM campus. Soviet Jewry Co-chairman Lee Pravder praised Silberberg as being instrumental in organizing the walk-a-thon and stressed the urgency of community action. “In regards to Scharansky, I’m fasting for him because I don’t want to take my freedom for granted,” said Pravder, referring to Thursday’s national hunger strike for Scharansky, which was declared by the National Conference on Soviet Jewry and the Union of Councils on Soviet Jewry. A group of UM students participated in the fast by abstaining from food and water the entire day and by wearing stickers reading ”1 am on a hunger strike for Scharansky.” Silberberg said that students wishing to participate in the walk-a-thon may pick up sponsor sheets and other information at Hillel until 4 p.m. today. Those walking will be required to register at Hillel by noon Sunday. Several dignitaries, including State Senator Joe Gersten and U.S. congressional candidate Larry Smith, will be on hand at the walk-a-thon. Rabbi Mark Kram will give a small speech at the JSU-Hillel-sponsored walk-a-thon opening. "It is important at this time that people put pressure on our government to raise, the issue of Soviet Jewry,” said Pravder. "Within our own powers, we must become aware and take action. Soviet Jewish emigration is at an all-time low.” Proceeds will go towards four organizations: South Florida Conferece on Soviet Jewry, Student Struggle for Soviet Jewry, Union of Councils for Soviet Jewry, and Soviet Jewry Program at UM. Refreshments will be served, and Hil- lel's Israeli dance group will perform. In addition, the American Zionist Youth Organization, the Soviet Jewry Committee, Hillel and JSU will set up information tables. The walk will begin and end at ’Hillel with a party on the patio afterwards. Prizes will be awarded for the individual or organization with the most pledges and for the individual or organization collecting the most money. Board Votes Not To Certify FalwelVs College Teachers ‘The members of Liberty Baptist College, students and faculty alike, have made a number of statements that they only receive training in creationism.’ Judy Goldberg RICHMOND, Va. (CPS) — In a “political" decision, the Virginia Board of Education has momentarily stopped teachers who have graduated from Rev. Jerry Fal-well’s Liberty Baptist College from pursuing a mission to “go out into the classrooms and teach creationism.” The Sept. 24th decision not to certify teachers from Liberty Baptist, however, is not final, and could be overturned by a subcommittee of the same board. Falwell started the controversy last spring when he announced on his “Old Time Gospel Hour” television show that education majors graduating from Liberty Baptist would teach the biblical version of the origin of life to their own students. The American Civil Liberties Union immediately sued to deny teaching certificates to those students, whose main purpose, the .ACLU charged, was to teach fundamentalist Christian ideology in science classrooms. The state board originally agreed with the ACLU, but Liberty Baptist appealed. Upon re-consideratioon last week, the board sent the matter back to the subcommittee that had earlier denied certification to Liberty Baptist grads. “It was strictly political," says a National Education Association organizer who wished to remain anonymous because the NEA “doesn't have an official position on the case.” Falwell’s connection to power-ful conservative political action committees was “certainly in the back of [board members'] minds. Otherwise, why didn’t they just tell Falwell to teach his people to teach, not proselytize?” A board spokesman says the decision to give the matter back to the committee was "procedural, not political. The issue more properly belongs with the Teacher Education Advisory Committee, not the full board. I think the board (reconsidered] the [issue] more as a courtesy than anything else.” A final decision by the committee, which earlier voted 17-0 to deny Liberty Baptist grads biology teacher certification, is due “by December.” according to Judy Goldbery, the ACLU lawyer who presented the case. “The members of Liberty Baptist College, students and faculty alike, have made a number of statements that they only receive training in creationism,” she argues. ‘Their only concern with evolution is why it is false and invalid.” Liberty Baptist natural science department chairman Dr. Terry Weaver counters that, "The state can require us to meet certain educational standards, but it cannot force us to believe in evolution." Weaver contends Liberty Baptist education majors learn all the relevant theories “in the same way it might be taught elsewhere.” Goldberg disagrees. “The two textbooks they use are creationist texts,” she asserts. Besides, in the college's prospectus, one of the five stated goals of the department is to show the scientific basis for biblical creation. Creationism is not a science." Weaver says “Pastor Falwell said he may have overstated his case" on the TV show, and adds “there is no voodoo or Christian methodology on campus." Nevertheless, a September 1982 Gallup Poll showed 44 percent of those surveyed believe the human species is less than 10,000 years old and was created In Its present form by God._____ ‘Based on information given me by Ken Posner [Residence Halls Coordinator for Mahoney Hall], no political literature can be distributed in the mailboxes, put under doors, or in doors.’ USBG Senator Eric Gebaide Cannon refused comment as to which members of the College Republicans handled the distribution in Mahoney-Pearson. He also said he did not know how the others would be distributing the literature. He stated that he did not tell the people how to distribute the leaflets. Having never dealt with Residence Halls before, Cannon asserted that he is not familiar with dorm policies. He said he knew that the leaflets could not be put under doors, so he personally put them in the side of the doors. “I was not aware you had to get approval to put [the leaflets] it in the mailboxes," he said. However, the Hurricane has learned that certain members of the College Republicans were told Tuesday morning that such actions were against Residence Halls policy. “Based on information given me by Ken Posner [Residence Halls Coordinator for Mahoney Hall), no political literature can be distributed in the mailboxes, put under doors, or in doors," Gebaide said. Posner said that authorization is necessary for any kind of literature distribution in the dorms. He declined to elaborate on residence halls policy, however, referring the Hurricane to other residence halls officials. None could be reached as of yesterday afternoon. While Gebaide said Wednesday that Posner would be entering disciplinary action against Cannon, Pos- ...........> ner said yesterday that he did not yet know what action would be taken against him. Posner said a desk assistant must have either given a member of the College Republicans access to the mailboxes or the desk assistant must have placed the leaflets in the mailboxes himself, neither of which are allowed without authorization. Posner refused to say what action would be taken against the desk assistants involved, saying “it’s a confidential matter between me and my staff." In his letter to Sandler, Gebaide asks what action is to be taken in regards to the Glenn Rinker campaign and their campus representatives. Johns refused to give the names of those handling the distribution Tuesday evening. His only comment was that “even if there is any truth to the charges, there shouldn't be any publicity until everything is aired." Gebaide said that the responsibility for this act should not rest solely on Cannon. “If this was a case where Mr Cannon tried to subvert the rules, I feel he would bear a greater responsibility. As It was. he was wrong, but Residence Halls were the ones who permitted this mistake. Residence .Halls must bear the responsibility for telling Mr. Cannon what he can’t do when he approaches them to distribute literature." Gebaide said. Rinker Wins In Mock Election By LOURDES FERNANDEZ Hurricane Assistant News Editor Glenn Rinker, who beat incumbent Rep. Dante Fascell in a mock election held Wednesday at UM, appeared at the university a few hours after the results were tabulated. The election, which was sponsored by the USBG Elections Affairs Agency, took place in the breezeway between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. Rinker, former channel 10 anchorman, and Fascell are running for the 19th district United States congressional seat. Of the 286 students that voted, 64.7 percent voted for Rinker and 35.3 percent for Fascell. According to Electoral Affairs Agency Chairman Ivo Riveiro, the mock election was held to let candidates know that students care and to persuade the two candidates to speak at the university. “Basically, this is the biggest race in Miami," he said. "We’re going to have other mock elections for all the other races." “I think it’s great," said Rinker. “Hopefully, it’s a portender of things to come. “It's good to see the students involved in the political process, especially when many of the students are from out of town, although it does have national significance," he said. When asked why he thought he had won, Rinker said he hoped the students "looked at the candidates and made their choice on that.” He added that there was a national trend to replace old policies with new ones. “It's a new, young, fresh look." Rinker said. “And I like that.” According to Rinker, Fascell is “vulnerable,” and “young people are supporting administration policies." The USBG is planning to have Rinker and Fascell speak at UM on Oct. 20. Riveiro said that one of the reasons Rinker may have won was that "people can identify with him and are used to hearing hjm speak on the news.” He added that he thought this should make other candidates take the university more seriously. USBG Vice President Stacy Wein said about the turnout: “I was surprised that so many people would vote in a mock election. It proves that students do care.” Marc Cannon, campus chairman of Youth For Rinker, said he was also very surprised at the number of people who voted and by the gap of votes between the two candidates. “Most people couldn’t identify with Fascell,” he added. “I hope he does that well in general elections." Mike Johns, president of College Republicans, said, "Today, the University of Miami made a critical decision in its future political direction in the 19th district. “Glenn Rinker stands for a change against the policies that have misguided this area in the past 28 years," he said. "This mock election is an indication that the students here are ready for a change in Dade County. And Glenn Rinker is the man for that change." * « Index Here Come The Boys A report on the last publicly funded women’s college, Mississippi University for Women, which in being forced to admit men /PAGE 3 Much Maligned Mascots Mascots at schools like Baylor and Mississippi are having difficult times surviving /PAGE 5 Meet LUi Bita The Hurricane interviews one of the theater’s most versatile Renaissance women /PAGE 8 ‘ Lewis Without Martin Jerry Lewis was at the Omni this week to publicize his new autobiography, and the Hurricane was there /PAGE 8 Ain’t Just Whistlin’ Dixie McDonald’s «planning a big giveaway at this Saturday’s Miami-Misaissijjpi State game /PAGE tl Opinion /PAGE 6 Entertainment /PAGE 8 Sports /PAGE 11 Classifieds /PAGE 12
