Scalias impartiality challenged
Senators note justice's ties to Cheney
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Chief
Justice William H. Rehnquist on
Monday rebuffed two Democratic
senators who questioned Justice
Antonin Scalia’s impartiality in an
appeal involving Scalia’s friend and
hunting partner, Vice President
Dick Cheney.
Sens. Joe Lieberman of
Connecticut, presidential candidate,
and Patrick Leahy ofVermont asked
Rehnquist last week to clarify dis
qualification practices after Scalia
acknowledged joining Cheney on a
recent duck hunting trip.
The Louisiana trip earlier this
month came shortly after the
Supreme Court agreed to review a
lower court’s decision requiring the
White House to identify members
of the vice president’s energy task
force. Scalia also had dinner with
Cheney in November, about two

months after the administration
asked the justices to overrule the
lower court. Rehnquist said any
suggestion that Scalia should
recuse himself “is ill considered.”
Rehnquist, a Republican put on
the high court by Richard Nixon in
1972 and made chief justice by
Ronald Reagan in 1986, said that
while justices often consult with
colleagues when they are consider
ing recusing themselves from a
case, there is no formal procedure.
Rehnquist did not give an opin
ion about whether Scalia should
step down from hearing the case,
but made clear that it was up to
Scalia to make that decision. After
the case is over “anyone at all is free
to criticize the action of a justice,”
Rehnquist wrote.
Leahy said Monday that
Rehnquist’s letter confirms that

timing of the letter.
Ethics expert Steven Lubet of
Northwestern University said
Rehnquist’s response is not sur
prising, because it follows long
standing court tradition. He said it
probably will not silence critics,
including people who were angry
at the court’s 5-4 Bush v. Gore deci
sion that effectively called the
deadlocked presidential election
for George W. Bush. Scalia voted
with the majority.

istration’s energy policy.
The court will hear arguments
in the case this spring, and the two
lawmakers told Rehnquist that
“when a sitting judge, poised to
hear a case involving a particular
litigant, goes on a vacation with
that litigant, reasonable people
will question whether that judge
can be a fair and impartial adjudi
cator of that man’s case.”
Scalia, named to the court by
Reagan, is one of the court’s
staunchest conservatives. He has
said there is no reason to question
his ability to judge the case fairly.
Scalia did step aside in another
major case at the Supreme Court
this term. He will not participate
when the court decides whether it
is unconstitutional for public school
children to pledge their allegiance
to “one nation under God.” The
father who challenged the pledge of
allegiance had sought Scalia’s
recusal because the justice told a
religious group last year that law
makers, not judges, are better suit
ed to decide the pledge question.

Two bracelet ranges will be distributed to students, one senior range for graduating seniors and
graduating graduate students, and a second range for all non-graduating students, luniors with senior
standing based on academic credit are only eligible for senior bracelets if they will graduate in May or
December of 2004. Getting a bracelet in no way guarantees that a student will receive tickets.
Two "magic" numbers will be drawn at noon Friday, January 30 in the pit, one from each bracelet range.
Graduating seniors and graduating graduate students are to report for line check a few minutes before
7:00 a.m. on Saturday, lanuaiy 31 at the Dean E. Smith Center Ticket Office. Again, being present for
line check does not guarantee that a student will receive tickets. During the senior portion of the
distribution, each student may receive up to two tickets, as supplies last, by showing their One Card and
a second valid UNC One Card. The second One Card must be from a graduating senior or graduating
graduate student. Seniors will not receive an additional ticket if the second One Card does not meet
these specifications. Line check for students in the non-graduating range will be held at 10:30 AM. Any
remaining tickets will be distributed to non-graduating students at that time. Students again may receive
up to two tickets by presenting their One Card and a second valid UNC One Card.
Students who are unsure of their classification should check with their department office and/or bring a
signed letter on their department's letterhead stating that they will be graduating in May or December of
2004. Because of the varying lengths of graduate programs, all graduating graduate students should
bring a letter from their department stating that they will graduate in May or December of 2004. One
letter from each department listing the graduating grad students from that department will suffice.

“These are awards to the
University that directly improve the
community and the state,” she said.
Rosenberg credits U.S. Rep.
David Price, D-N.C., who repre

House’s appropriations committee,
with the funding.
“We are extremely fortunate to
have David Price represent this
institution,” Rosenberg said,
adding that the University only
asks for federal funding when it
can’t get necessary funds from
alternate sources.
“We have a strict policy that we
do not request targeted federal
support if competitive funding is
available,” she said.
N.C. State University received
more than sl3 million, mostly for
projects in textile research.
The Triangle got more than S3O

Some of these items were tables
