The. forum was sponsored by the Campus Y as part of Human Rights Week About 25 people attended the panel discussion in Murphey Hall. The panelists were Dorothy Bern holz, director of Student Legal Services; lawyer Tom Maher; James Cansler, associate vice chancellor; senior Brock Dickinson; and gradu ate student Brad Walker. Panel members disagreed about whether protesters should be able to interfere with the rights of others in trying to attain their goals. "You can't tell me a protester has more rights than the observer," Walker said. Cansler said he believes students should remember the rights of others when exposing their ideas. "The right to speak carries with it the right to hear," he said. Some people in the audience said they felt the inhumanities that some people and groups are engaged in justifies most actions taken by dissenters. The CIA is involved in atrocities "beyond the meeting rooms" that are such severe violations of the law that people must take a stand against it even if doing so inconveniences some people, said Dale McKinley, a graduate student active in campus protests. Maher said dissenters should not keep others from learning the other sides of the issue. "At the heart of the First Amend ment is the right to hear both sides," he said. Dissenters are saying they don't trust people to accurately assess different points of view when they bar people from meetings or lectures on subjects dissenters do not support, he said. The panelists discussed what limits should be set on acceptable types of dissent. "The line that needs to be drawn is non-violence," Dickinson said. "Dissenters have the right to violate the rights of others on a limited basis. When the CIA protesters put blood on the door, that was not violence. It was a symbolic act. What I would object, to is if they went . in , with baseball bats and started hitting people." Cansler said disruption of aca demic and intellectual processes is a disruption of the University's princi ple reason for existence, Cansler said. "People have the right to protest the CIA coming here as much as they choose, but they don't have the right to disrupt classes," he said. Walker said he believes protests should be done tastefully. "There are people in society that can't handle seeing pictures of mut ilated babies," he said. "I dont think those protests are done tastefully. It is not an intellectual or rational means of communicating an issue.

The reasons you have beliefs aren't a defense against actions that you take." Some panel members said they believed peaceful dissent is ineffective. "You cannot achieve anything through mere psychological and intellectual discourse," Dickinson said. But Walker said Dickinson's rea soning was circular. "You are using the same rationale that the CIA is using when you say that we have the right to break the law in order to get others to stop breaking the law," he said.
