The four unions involved — BSU, MEChA (Hispanic Student Union), Asian American Student Union and Native American Student Union — are not merg ing into one body but will be pooling their money for various activities, Britt says “More people can indentify with multi-cultural activities, in cluding whites," Britt says “We could put on separate functions and have success in a small way But if we broaden our base, we can affect more people." Britt says he hopes the move will "break the barrier between campus and the rest of town.” If the community likes the activi ties, it will have a "bandwagon effect," he says Dave Maeda, director of the AASU, says student unions are "focal points to help minorities adjust socially,” to provide friendship and identity and to "see people of our own heritage and culture." "College students hear awful things about Affirmative Action, like I’m not going to get a job because I'm white' says Liz Halimah, assistant director of MEChA "Lots of this is ignorance," she says. "Whites are insensi tive to our needs. People call themselves liberals and make patronizing remarks, but there is lots of animosity among whites. "People mistake Eugene as being a very liberal town,” Maeda says. “The thing is, this area is conservative." "All you see is white people off campus,” Maeda says "Since minorities are such a small percentage, if we don’t define our needs, no one else will, and we ll get screwed over by the people who make the policies.” The unions exist "to define cultural and social needs,” Maeda adds Music school presents holiday sing-along show University News Bureau A holiday sing along featuring Handel’s “Messiah'' will be held on Sunday.
