Soviets rule out more talks
on treaties limiting nuke tests
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Soviet Union on Wednes
day ruled out further talks on the Reagan administration’s
bid to tighten verification provisions in two unratified
treaties limiting underground nuclear tests. "There is no
need to hold negotiations on this subject,” the Soviets
said.
In an unusual statement issued through its embassy,
the Kremlin accused the United States of trying to under
mine the accords by pressing for the changes.
Promising not to take actions "inconsistent” with the
1974 and 1976 unratified treaties, the Soviets turned aside
U.S. efforts to tighten verification procedures by saying
procedures already exist for "mutual consultations" on
any suspected violations.
The statement, telephoned to news agencies by
Vladimir Mikoyan of the embassy’s press office, recom
mended that the United States proceed with Senate
ratification of the agreements reached in the Nixon and
Ford administrations.
The principal provisions of those agreements restrict
all underground tests — for either weapons or peaceful
purposes — to 150 kilotons or less. That is equivalent to 10
times the power of the bomb the United States exploded
on Hiroshima, Japan, in World War II. Earlier agreements
with the Soviets banned atomic testing in the atmosphere,
outer space and under water.
The treaties provide for what is known as "national
technical means” of verification.
Negative evaluations may cause
teacher bias, law students say
By Frank Shaw
Of th* Emerald
A Tuesday discussion on a law course
questionnaire raised concerns about teacher
evaluations.
The questionnaire, distributed by Mark
Wilson, a member of the curriculum commit
tee, dealt primarily with the issue of offering
another section of a constitutional law class
spring term.
The furor began when 18 of the 350
students who filled out the form criticized the
course instructor Linda Greene in the com
ments section.
“To say that Linda Greene is 'no damn
good’ and ‘I hate her’ does not help me very
much," Bell said about the comments.
Only two of the students who criticized
Greene signed their questionnaires.
“You should always want to sign a critical
statement," Bell told the more than 50 law
students attending the meeting.
Students then raised concerns about
teacher evaluation policy and the possibility of
a teacher confronting a student who had sign
ed an unfavorable evaluation.
Bell explained the procedure, saying
evaluations are never opened until after exams
have been graded. Unsigned evaluations are
not subject to handwriting analysis to deter
mine their authors, he added.
“It is not done, and if it were done it would
not be condoned,” Bell said.
The evaluation process becomes suspect
when students want to take the second term of
a course with the same instructor, a student
said.
He said it would be difficult for a professor
to remain unbiased after reading a bad evalua
tion and having the student in the class again.
“Retaliation is barred,” Bell said. “On
some things you do not need to have rules."
Ken Ford, president of the Student Bar
Association, said he would establish a commit
tee to study the potential problems with evalua
tions and make a faculty recommendation.
Wilson said the meeting let students
“blow off some steam."
“I’m glad that things came out the way
they did,” he said.
