THINGS THAT GO BUMP IN. THE NIGHT subject to terrorism and unrest as Iran and Iraq continue their war, and events in Palestine make the news on a daily basis. Badawi calls the problem in Palestine a "simple" one. During World War II, the Jews were persecuted by the West. But the West didn't see fit to pay for their sins by providing land in parts of Europe or Germany, he said. Badawi said Western countries decided to compensate the Jews by giving them someone else's land. Some of the acts committed by Palestinian groups, such as kidnapping, are not in accordance with Islamic law and not advocated by Badawi. But outsiders must understand the pressures Palestinians live under, which contribute to these actions, he safd. Another misunderstood aspect of Islam is its treatment of women, Badawi said. He is often asked why women are not treated as the equals of men in relation to their individuality or their rights to inheritance. He responded that there is not a single verse in the Koran which states men are superior or women inferior. He calls it a "grave misunderstanding" and a "myth" that in Islam women are placed in an inferior position to men. Not every responsibility of the sexes is equal, he said, but the duties of men and women are complementary. Because the husband is responsible for the debts and upkeep of the family, regardless of the wealth of his wife, sons receive twice the inheritance of daughters. Badawi said people are quick to judge a religion by those who claim to be in that faith but he explained that instead of this, society should judge those who claim faith by the rules of the religion. students to meet its requirements," Alva Baer, former chair of the Financial Aids and Scholarship Committee, said. And because the GPA required to keep a special the departmental scholarships was considered too low at 3.0, 3.5. committee voted to standardize all scholarships at Chris Hohmann, a senior, was offered both an Honors at Entrance and a departmental scholarship when he first entered the U. He opted for a departmental award partly because it offered the same benefits with a much lower required GPA to retain it. "A 3.5 GPA is a better level for Honors at Entrance because it's unrealistic for some majors, like the sciences, to keep a 3,7," Hohmann, a senior, said. Several students made the same observation, with some saying that even a 3.5 level is too high for a departmental scholarship in the sciences. Ed Trujillo, scholarship coordinator for civil engineering, said he was studying the effects the change might have on scholarships and students in that department. Other scholarship coordinators reported the same and were unaware a policy change had been made. Have you ever felt a little uneasy about walking across campus at night?
