Throughout sexual assault awareness month in April, groups like Promoting Awareness Victim Empowerment and Men Opposing Sexual Assault will be concentrating their efforts in promoting public discourse and education on the issue of sexual assault. As a very important issue in a woman's life the prospect of sexual assault does not only dwell in the front of the female consciousness, but the statistical probability of it terrorizes women on a daily basis.
Recently in Chicago, I took part in one of the last primaries in the country. I did not plan on voting since I was going to vote for John Kerry and his candidacy was already in the bag, but as the polls neared closing I became racked with guilt and ran out at the last minute to cast my vote.
After three days of hearings, last Wednesday, The International Court of Justice in The Hague went into deliberations over the security fence being built by Israel. It could take months before the tribunal reaches a verdict and although the decision may be a public relations disaster for Israel, it will not be a binding one.
The lack of a progressive race relations dialogue in this country is perfectly exemplified by the lack of a progressive race relations dialogue on this campus. While political correctness has allowed racism to continue undisturbed, the current race discourse is pitting federally mandated ethnic groups against each other without allowing individuals to sit down and engage in an intimate and non-confrontational setting.
The anti war movement of the 1960s and early 1970s gave power to a growing progressive voice in this country. During the same era a powerful civil rights movement emerged, and along with feminist activity and gay rights, a decade was dedicated to the struggle between the \liberal"" left and the ""conservative"" right.
On July 24 the Rhode Island police raided a small smoke shop owned by the Narragansett tribe for selling tax-free cigarettes. After eight people were injured and eight tribesmen were arrested, the Narragansetts and Rhode Island are in court fighting over whether the state has the right to send police officers to enforce state law on Native land, or if state law has any rights at all on Native American tribal land.
Last Thursday the state Assembly Judiciary Committee voted 6-0 to approve Assembly Bill 475 without discussion, thereby reinforcing a standard of prejudice and inequality in the state of Wisconsin.
The 40th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s \I Have a Dream"" speech was honored last weekend throughout the country as profound event in American history. In his speech, King called out the hypocrisy of American segregation and emphasized the values of the American Constitution that hold all human beings equally.
On Tuesday, April 29, 2003, Daniel Pipes is coming to speak at UW-Madison for the Wisconsin Union Directorate's Spotlight Series. Since his appearance was announced, there has been a strong voice of dissent amongst a small minority on campus. However, if the majority knew this man, there would be only a minority to support him.
I was invited to be the mediator at an Associated Students of Madison debate Tuesday night between three candidates representing three parties on the slate for this week's ASM election. The three parties represented were the new Third Wave party, the Students' Alliance of Madison party and the Badger Party. All three candidates were asked a range of questions, from what they think about the 'opt-out' question hovering over the controversial segregated fees process to whether they think that ASM should be voting on such \higher-up"" issues as the war in Iraq.
One of the articles published for the series about Islam addressed the issue of the hijab (the head covering that Muslim women wear). Since Americans became obsessed with Islam, they have turned the hijab into a symbol for the inequality and oppression that Muslim women face at the hands of their religion. The article, which was published by a Muslim woman, discussed how the hijab is liberating for Muslim women, and it is a symbol of strength and not of weakness.
In the news Tuesday it was reported that the Qatar-based Arabic language network, al-Jazeera aired an audio tape, which allegedly contains another recently recorded message from Osama bin Laden. In the tape, he urged Muslims all over the world to fight against a U.S. attack on Iraq and he urged \good Muslims"" to aid in the overthrow of any ""leaderships that work as a slave to America."" Spouting out threats to both the United States and Israel, the tape came out at the perfect time, with the security levels upping from yellow to orange last weekend, to inspire fresh fear in the hearts of all Americans against a threat of ""evil,"" which our government has sold us as being rooted in the Middle East.
While I was enjoying the holidays at home in Chicago, then-Gov. George Ryan gave Illinois a great gift by sparing 167 people from death.
With the recent racial attacks made on one of the house fellows in Witte Residence Hall, our bad campus climate has once again been put under the spotlight. Diversity on this campus has been a huge issue for years; photo alteration and David Horowitz controversy to name a few incidents. My feelings about all of these issues have been mixed. But all of them make it painfully evident that this campus not only is not diverse enough, but the climate is so strained that it is difficult for the existing diversity to establish one community. The photograph altering was a sad attempt by the university to make campus seem diverse, and it was wrong and dishonest, but the intentions weren't evil. Our campus climate is strained and they were trying to make campus seem more diverse to attract minority students. But if I were someone of an ethnic minority, I don't know how interested I would be in going to a school where the only diversity they can offer me, is myself.
With the recent racial attacks made on one of the housefellows in Witte Residence Hall, our poor campus climate has once again been put under the spotlight. Diversity on this campus has been a huge issue for years. A photo alteration on the university admissions booklet and the David Horowitz controversy are among the few in recent years. My feelings about all of these issues have been mixed. But they make it painfully evident that this campus not only is not diverse enough, but the climate is so strained that it is difficult for the existing diversity population to establish one community.
Since the fall of the Soviet Union, America's role in the world has become very clear. The delicate equilibrium of a bipolar world has been replaced by U.S. hegemony, and either with economic pressure or military action we have the ability to impose our will on any sovereign state in the world. Because of this power, we are free to act for our independent interests and the interests of our allies while the rest of the world is expected to act within the legal boundaries of a democratic world order, namely the United Nations.
Without sacrificing the responsibilities and rewards of being mothers and wives, the number of women at universities and in the workforce has steadily increased since the 1970s when the number of enrolled women surpassed men. Since then women have been more active in extracurricular activities, and had an overall better academic performance. Despite this officials there remains a gender pay gap in the workforce.
For many students jobs held during their college careers cover school and social expenses. Employment is an important aspect of student life, and the diversity of jobs in Madison allows students to find work that meets their needs, according to Betsy Dublinski, a UW-Madison Student Job Center adviser and UW-Madison senior.
As the Big Ten school with the lowest number of parking places per capita, UW-Madison finalized a new parking plan for the 2002-'03 school year Friday which increases parking permit fees and decreases parking perks for emeritus professors.
