Sen. Brooke addresses BYU
PROVO, Utah — Sen. Edward Brooke, R-Mass., said
Thursday he wouldn’t insist on change in Mormon practices, but
Mormons and blacks should work to break down obstacles to
understanding each other.
The nation’s only black senator told more than 6,000 stu
dents at church-owned Brigham Young University there are
similarities between Mormon and black culture.
Brooke, who earlier met with Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints Pres. Spencer Kimball, did not specifically men
tion the church’s ban of blacks from priesthood offices held by all
other faithful male members over 11 years old.
Carter charges
arms dealings
WASHINGTON (AP) — Pres.
Carter accused the Soviet Union
on Thursday of sending “some
men” as well as large shipments
of arms to Ethiopia in its clash with
Somalia.
The president did not say
whether the Russians in Ethiopia
were technicians, military advis
ers or troops. He reaffirmed, at the
same time, that Cubans were also
involved in the war over the Oga
den region.
‘‘We have taken a position con
cerning Africa that we would use
our influence to bring about peace
without shipping arms to the dis
puting parties and without inject
ing ourselves into disputes that
can be best resolved by Africans,"
Carter said.
“The Soviets have done just the
opposite,” he said and urged the
Russians to join with the United
States in supporting immediate
negotiations to end the dispute.
Carter also predicted that Con
gress will approve a national
energy program early in this com
ing session “of which we can be
proud."
At a nationally televised news
conference, the president said
part of the program will be a com
promise on natural gas prices.
Carter has threatened in the
past to impose oil import fees if
Congress can’t agree on a bill. He
toid reporters he hopes he does
not have to take any such execu
tive action.
Congress returns to work next
week.
The president said foreign
leaders expressed concern during
his recent overseas trip about
whether the United States has
"the resolve to deal squarely with
our energy problems.”
"As a nation increasing our de
mands for foreign oil, we may
have conservation forced on us by
unexpected increases in oil prices
in the future,” Carter said.
Residency rules confusing
For students who think they may be eligible for
resident status or those who think they’ve been
turned down unfairly, the Office of Student Advocacy
(OSA) may be able to help.
The beginning of a term “is a time when many
people are thinking about residency," says Don
Chalmers from the OSA. “Many returning students
are now eligible and need to be evaluated.”
Chalmers suggests students drop by the OSA
office to fill out a “residency evaluation game" before
they approach the admissions office. "It’s not a con
clusive” evaluation of whether the student will ac
quire residency or not, but it’s fairly accurate deter
minant and a “good way to get the ball rolling," says
Chalmers.
Some misunderstanding regarding the "six
month" residency rule has arisen, Chalmers says. To
become a resident, students “must be emancipated
from their parents, be domiciled in Oregon and live in
the state for either six or 12 months.
“If you enroll in an institution of higher education,
the 12-month rule applies,” explains Chalmers. Peo
ple who have not attended an Oregon institution
come under the six-month rule.
“Apparently some University officials are requir
ing 12-month emancipation from parents, even if the
person hasn’t (seen going to school,” says Chalmers
t he residency regulations do not make this stipula
tion.
If a student’s affidavit of residency is denied by
the admissions office, he or she should consult with
the OSA. After denial, the student has two courses of
action.
The first appeal is to the Inter-Institution Com
mittee on Residency. The final appeal goes to the
Permanent Administrative Review Committee. The
OSA can help students with appeals to either com
mittee.
Students wishing to appeal to the Permanent
Committee must supply a written request to the ad
missions office. Chalmers says the committee is
tentatively scheduled to meet on Jan. 30 and re
quests should be turned in as soon as possible.
