Some student Pro-Choicers at tended the forum with signs pro testing the lack of both sides of the abortion issue being repre sented, and voicing support for choice. It is college policy to have both sides of an issue expressed in a college-sponsored event. The fo rum was brought to the college by ZOE Unlimited Christian Fel lowship and NCWC College Re publicans, with help from private individuals and organizations. One Pro-Choicer in attendance, Jessica Hause, said, “we are here to represent the other side. I do not condemn Pro-Lifers — I un derstand where they are coming from, but it is not fair not to present both sides of the issue.” Pro-Life student views ranged from the radical to traditional Pro- Life ideas. College Republican officer Ken Leonard takes a radi cal position, as defined by McHugh, believing “to kill either mother or child if the woman’s life is in danger is wrong. Under no circumstance is killing the child necessary.” Brad Bames said, “I really care about all those millions of babies dying ... I don’t think of it as choosing—referring to a woman right to decide for or against abor tion.” The forum was moderately at tended by students, and poorly attended by staff and faculty. mm STUDENTS HONORED — Judy Boyd (left) and Emonique Wooten receive, respectively, the President’s Cup Award and the Algernon Sydney SuDivan Award from Wesleyan President Les Garner during the April 4 Honors Convocation.
