Arab teach-in advocates non-involvement Asked what the people of the U.S. could do to help the situation in the Middle East, Araasha, a group spokesperson at an Arab teach-in held Wednesday, suggested they start thinking about their own problems rather than trying to solve those of other people. “You should take that million dollars the U.S. sent Israel to promote racism and chauvinism, and use it to start free clinics here instead.” Amasha said. But temper flare-ups were relatively minor at the teach-in held by Arab students and sup porters from noon to 3 p.m. Wednesday. Teach-in organizers said the main goal of the teach-in was to give a clear, unbiased picture of the Arab people's struggle against imperialism and the Zionist movement in the Middle East, which they feel the American news media purposely does not give. Representatives from Iran, Africa, and Latin America started the meeting by pledging their support and complete solidarity with the Arab Liberation Movement. The format consisted of three speakers giving a history of Zionism and imperialism in the Middle East from 1918 up to the present time, followed by a question-and-answer session. The speakers felt the fighting taking place in their country should not be considered dif ferent from the recent struggles in Chile or South Africa. They said all are Third World countries struggling against systems of exploitation, racism, oppression and chauvinism forced on them by western imperialism. They spoke of Arabs and Jews living in harmony together, working shoulder to shoulder in one state. Previously in the discussion, however, they stated the only way to solve the struggle was to destroy the war machinery and ruling class of Israel. When the subject of the Promised Land came up, Amasha stated, “God made Arabs and Palestinians second class citizens when he promised Israel to the Jews. If God wants to give you a land, let Him bring you a land!” Women’s study center established A Center for the Sociological Study of Women has been established at the University. “The need for such a center is one consequence of the very rapid growth of interest in questions relating to sex roles and socialization patterns in contemporary society,” said Richard Hill, head of the sociology department, which will host the new Center. Joan Acker, associate professor of sociology, has been named director. “Acker has been concerned and active for a number of years in developing a center for research on women," Hill pointed out. The center is unique in the State of Higher Education in its research focus. Both Portland State and Oregon State univer sities have women’s studies programs, but they are basically curriculum -or iented. Funds to establish the center come from University President Robert Clark’s reserve fund, which is used to encourage in struction-related research and for other instructional needs. Acker sees the center as a resource for the entire Univer sity. Although the focus of in terest is within sociology, the center will welcome the par ticipation of scholars from other areas, she notes. Working with Acker will be Miriam Johnson and Marion Goldman, new members of the sociology faculty. “We will be continuing some research projects already begun in this area, as well as beginning new research,” explains the director. The center is a continuation and expansion of activities in stituted under a $3,000 grant to Acker in 1970 which allowed her to embark upon a study of reactions of university faculty to affirmative action. The survey questionnaire for that study now is being tested, and different kinds of approaches are being designed. Other research already under way includes a study, now only in its preliminary stages, on the differential participation of mother and father in sex roles socialization. In addition, a proposal has been made to a private foundation to fund a research project on the effects of the women’s movement on women political party activists. Six graduate students are pursuing dissertation research in this area.

They are people who are attracted to people of their same sex socially, emotionally, and erotically. They are concerned with warmth, love, and security in their relation ships, just like any of us. That is the message of One Step Beyond. One Step Beyond is a com munity agency which might be able to help you, maybe a friend of yours or a member of your family. More than an agency, it is a group of people deeply concerned with creating a receptive environment, in creasing personal growth, and more livable, less isolated gay life here in Eugene. One Step Beyond offers an alternative aid situation for those persons questioning sexual identities, sex roles, lifestyles, and preferences. They have on going groups at the center—a women’s rap group, a men’s encounter and growth group, and a young people’s group. They do on-going, walk-in, and telephone counseling and have experience in couple and family counseling and sex therapy. They are available for speaking engagements at area agencies or classes or for any interested group. Their advocacy and referral resources put them in contact with other community agencies needing help with gay clientele, issues and concerns. The agency has a small library of books, articles, and newspapers dealing with gay life-styles and culture. If you are interested, call 342 8256 and speak with or leave a message for Becky, Co-ordinator of Women’s Activities, or Greg or Brett, co-directors of One Step Beyond. Or stop by any Friday evening at 323 E. 12th Ave. where they are open from 7-10 p.m. They are open for suggestions and willing to help in any way they can.
