LAST WEEK THE FACULTY COUNCIL sent a tentative proposal for a new student-faculty disciplinary committee back to the drawing board. Several members of the council expressed concern that procedures for determining the proposed committee's jurisdiction in specific cases were too vague. The procedures are not just vague--they are fundamentally flawed. There simply cannot be one prosecutory body for "routine" offenses and another for charges that are controversial or arise in the course of political activities.

...message seemed particularly relevant in light of another AIDS disclosure this past week. At a symposium held by the Montefiore Medical Center in New York City, two researchers who have studied the widespread transmission of the AIDS virus among heterosexuals in Haiti and Africa voiced "great concern that a similar phenomenon could happen in the developed world." Their work revealed that 89% of Haiti's AIDS victims had apparently contracted the disease through heterosexual activity -- more than double the percentage of two years ago -- while incidence of the disease among a study group of African prostitutes has jumped nearly...
...reason for concern is that without ozone, life on earth would be impossible. Ozone is oxygen but in an unusual form. Most oxygen comes in two- atom molecules, but external energy -- in this case, the sun's ultraviolet radiation -- can split some of them apart. The single oxygen atoms tend to attach themselves to the remaining molecules, forming an oxygen-atom triplet. The result: a layer, from six to 30 miles up, of ozone-enriched air. Once formed, an ozone molecule is a good absorber of ultraviolet. But when CFCs rise to the ozone layer, sunlight decomposes them, releasing...
