Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., and Sen. John Kyi, R-Ariz., introduced a bill last week in the U.S. Senate that forbids any individual from possessing biologi cal agents outside a government certi fied lab. Labs that work with biological agents will have to register with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and follow certain guidelines to be certified. But Russ Lea, UNC-system vice pres ident for research, said he thinks Feinstein’s proposal is aimed at restrict ing access to the agents by nonresident aliens. Lea said that if the proposal becomes law, there would have to be a registra tion process, restricting access to facili ties that might work with these agents. He emphasized that this process would affect both faculty and students. ATTACK From Page 1 to flee, I doubt that they’ll find peace wherever they select." Rumsfeld said a “very small number” of U.S. forces are in Kabul, not enough to keep a careful eye on the opposition forces that entered the capital Monday after the Taliban fled. “They are not sufficient forces to mon itor or police the entire city. They are a sufficient number that they can give advice and counsel to the people who are in the city, the leadership,” he said. He also said U.S. special operations troops are in southern Afghanistan, but unlike the arrangement in the north that helped trigger the retreat of the Taliban, U.S. troops in the south are working inde pendendy of opposition forces, Rumsfeld said. He was vague about their mission. He said, “They are doing things that are helpful to our side and unhelpful to the other side.” Sonja Haynes Stone Black Cultural Center H Blacks in the Diaspora Lecture Series presents Dee Soyini Madison Associate Professor in Communications Studies Performing Human Rights, Performing Dradition Under Dubious Globality The lecture examines how a dramatic performance was used as an arena for inquiry and debate on women's human rights and religious fundamentalism as they both operate under the influences of globali zation. Professor Madison will show slides from the performance she adapted and directed in Ghana: “Is It a Human Being or a Girl?" The performance was based upon interviews with Ghanian human rights activists, traditionalists, feminists, policy makers, artists, grass roots activists and intellectuals. The lecture will raise questions about the efficacy of theatre as “public” discourse and as an artistic force for social and political change.

He added that the restriction likely would have the largest impact on grad uate students. Lea said the Association of American Universities and other higher edu cation groups are responding critical ly to these bills. UNC-Chapel Hill Vice Chancellor for “We are very confident that many elements of good lab security are in place. ” Peter Reinhardt Health and Safety Office Director Research Tony Waldrop also said he hopes the bill will not restrict foreign student access to lab facilities. “We always had equal opportunities (on campus),” he said. Peter Reinhardt, director of the UNC-CH Health and Safety Office, said only two of the 40 biological agents identified by the federal government are on the UNC-CH campus. He added that no more than two of the research laboratories on campus work with these agents. REDISTRICTING From Page 1 ago,” said Rep. Billy Creech, R- Johnston. “I don’t see what’s wrong with holding this thing over to give us a chance to look at it.” Wright said he presented a similar plan to the committee Co-chairman William McMahan, R-Mecklenburg, before the meeting to allow for comments. But McMahan said the latest propos al differed substantially. “This map is not the map I expected to receive.” Wright added that the changes were not substantial, and he and McMahan discussed the proposals before the meet ing. “We’re legislators,” he said. “We talk about concepts even if we don’t have anything tangible.” Wright said the committee could con sider another plan as early as today. “We’ll just wait until the committee’s ready," Wright said. “If we can’t get any thing, then we’ll just keep trying.” QJljp Hotly @ar Mppl “We have no anthrax or smallpox in the (UNC-CH) campus,” Reinhardt said. “We are very confident that many elements of good lab security are in place” Reinhardt said a federal law already is in effect to con trol selective agents. He added that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention conducts periodic site visits and regu lates agents used for research. He added that everyone working at UNC-CH laboratories must undergo proper training. “I think (the University) is as secure as any other in the nation. “We all will be reassessing what we do,” Reinhardt said. “I think we are doing a very good job here so far and need to make improvements in the future.” The State & National Editor can be reached at stntdesk@unc.edu. Soon after the meeting adjourned, Fitch started talking with Wright and committee staff members about districts he would find acceptable. Talking later with reporters, Fitch said he was trying to design a congressional district that a black candidate could win. “I’m trying to have an option for African Americans to truly have influ ence over who gets elected,” he said. Fitch showed a map he drew, altering the location of the 13th Congressional District. Fitch’s plan includes large por tions of Durham County and some of north Wake County. The Democratic plan excludes Durham County entirely and includes most of northern Wake County. Fitch said his plan was negotiable, pro vided the redistricting plan created a third district where a black candidate could win. He said he did not know when the members would reach a compromise but said that it could be as early as today. The State & National Editor can be reached at stntdesk@unc.edu. LAWSUIT From Page 1 He added that the lawsuit was an effort by Republicans to accomplish what they could not during the legisla tive session. “Any group that does not have the power of the vote (in the legislature) will use any means in their power to get what they want,” Lee said. UNC political science Professor Thad Beyle said the U.S. Supreme Court has stated in the past that such lawsuits could have a chance of suc ceeding if the Republicans demonstrate an orchestrated effort to harm their party. Beyle said, “They have to prove there is a a systematic attempt to reduce the number of Republicans in the General Assembly." The State & National Editor can be reached at stntdesk@unc.edu. TUITION From Page 1 Shelton is responsible for appointing faculty, students and administrators to serve on the committee, which will probably have about 10 members and will meet at least once before the semes ter break, he said Tuesday. Shelton said is it possible the commit tee would not be formed if board mem bers express no desire for an increase. “(But) I think people are interested in looking at a tuition increase," he said. The board will vote on the measure in January so it can go before the UNC system Board of Governors in March, Shelton said. The proposal must be approved by the BOG to be put into effect in fall 2002. Shelton said the committee will com pare tuition at UNC-CH to other univer sities and examine how UNC-CH used the money from the last two increases. Shelton said he would ask Student Body President Justin Young to nominate students to the committee. He said the committee needs student input, but it will be hard to meet over the semester break. But Shelton said the decision must be made quickly so students can plan for the increase. He said he hopes the committee will be able to meet once before exams so student members can pick up informa tion to study during the break and begin working on the proposal in earlyjanuary. Young said he was worried that die short time frame might limit student input. But Young said he will nominate stu dents who will be able to get the work done. “We do want a well-represented group of students for the committee to have all different backgrounds.” The University Editor can be reached at udesk@unc.edu.
