"You do not support me as a military member or any other soldier by sending us to our deaths. You do not support us by bringing us home missing limbs. You do not support us by bringing us home with memories that will haunt us day and night, and support us by rallying behind the Bush administration's 'New World Order'." Sanders had previously been identifying herself as Hope Powers for fear of punishment from the military, she said.

"No, this is not a student thing. These are people. These are people from all walks of life opposed to this war." The rally, with approximately 500 people, was smaller than previous mobilizations, he said. A Dec. 8 march involved over a thousand people, while one on Jan. 19 involved more than 1,500.

They try to brand us with being violent." However, mobilizations will grow over time, he said. Peter Appleby, U. philosophy department chairman and professor, agreed that the protests will grow, but it will be less gradual once ground fighting starts. Other experts agree that the bill is a important because it will raise awareness of discrimination and the importance of affirmative action.

However, a person's prejudicial beliefs may be very hard to change, Becky Elliot, National Organization of Women Utah Chapter executive coordinator, said. "Discrimination has more to do with beliefs and attitudes, not facts, which.. .result from growing up in a patriarchal society," Elliot said. "It is hard for any of us to get rid of applicants," McGowan said. The plan would also provide training.

THE GULF WAR: IMPLICATIONS FOR JORDAN a lecture by RICHARD P. ROBISON Diplomat, U.S. Foreign Service, Department of State, posted in Amman, Jordan Specialist, Gulf War Task Force, Department of State Former Middle East Center Graduate Student mjmSSFlli&'n , Following the invasion of Kuwait by the Iraqi Army, the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan has suffered considerably, primarily due to its support for the Iraqi regime. Many argue that King Husayn's road has been se by a combination of internal and external factors which have given him no viable options. As a result the king faces unquestionably the greatest challenge of his long and generally impressive career. Indeed, his very survival is at stake along with the future of Jordan as well as the Palestinian people, on both the West and East Banks. Mr. Robison will outline the actions and events leading up to Jordan's current crisis, the forces impacting on the Jordanian regime and possible outcomes, with "Israeli factor" during and after the Gulf War as primary focus on the well as the "Jordan is Palestine" "solution" scenario.
