“Out of 12 to 15 million
Sikhs in India, only around
1,000 are extremists,” says
Clarence Thurber, dean of the
international studies program at
the University.
Despite reports of Sikhs
celebrating Indira Gandhi’s
death, many Sikhs are critical of
the extremist movement which
has advocated terrorism to pro
mote the cause for an indepen
dent Sikh nation.
“It is important to unders
tand that the basic motto of the
Sikh religion is fearless and
revengeless,” says Dr. Sat Kir
pal Khalsa, professor of
physical education at the
University.
Khalsa, an American-born
Sikh, says his faith has never
advocated vengence, and yet
revenge was the motive behind
the extremists assasinating In
dira Gandhi.
“I was shocked and
dismayed by the tragedy,”
Khalsa says. ‘‘And 1 was further
shocked and disheartened by
the emotional response of some
Sikhs who considered her death
a cause for celebration.”
Although saddened by In
dira Gandhi’s death, Khalsa was
critical of her policies. He
describes the way in which she
handled the situation in Punjab
as ruthless.
“It was reported that bet
ween 500 to 1,000 were killed,
but actually the numbers were
closer to 20,000 dead,” Khalsa
says.
While Khalsa denounced
Indira Gandhi’s policy of order
ing troops into the Golden Tem
ple Punjab, Thurber thinks that
the prime minister had no other
choice.

Undergraduates studying at
the library are usually not there
for legal research and do not use
the stacks of materials needed
by law students, she says.
“Law students have a right to
study some place. The policy is
not for the exclusion of
undergraduates. It is legal
because it is part of our re
tion to help staff the library. Day
adds.
“It’s interesting how short
memories are. This problem
comes up periodically,” Nagae
says The Law Library is one of
few places on campus that stays
open late, until midnight seven
days a week, she says.

a great deal of patience,”
Thurber says. “She did what
she had to do.”
quirements,” Nagae says. “We
don’t have enough space for
undergraduates to study.”
Nagae says the rest of the law
building is open for
undergraduates to use as study
areas except at 4imes, such as
this week during "moot court,”
when even classroom space
becomes scarce.
“We do not let the general
public into our animal
laboratories, our research
laboratories or certain areas of
the computer center,” Hill says.
“It is the same with the Law
Library. The exclusionary
policy is for the good of the Law
Library.”
The University should look
into the study space problem
more. Kittredge says. Campus
classrooms should be used for
study halls when possible, he
suggests, but nothing can hap
pen until the problem is
addressed.
“People need a place to
study. If they are at home, the
phone will ring or people stop
by. They have to get out and
find a quiet place to study,” he
says.
The lack of campus study
space “focuses on the library
because it is a critical area. The
Law Library is unique to the law
student because what they need
is there,” Kittredge says.

Within days of his mother's
assasination, Rajiv Gandhi,
under the Indian parliamentary
system was sworn in as prime
minister.
Rajiv Gandhi, a former
airline pilot, was thrust into
politics three years ago after the
death of his brother, Sanjay,
who was being trained for the
position of Prime Minister by
his mother, says Thurber.
Thurber is optimistic about
Rajiv’s ability as a leader.
“If anyone can pull it off,
he can,” he says. “He’s learned
a lot from his mother, and he
has a reputation for being very
competent.”
But Goswami believes it is
Rajiv’s own personal
philosophy and not his politics
that will make him as as a
leader.
‘‘He is a person dedicated
to principles and values based
upon Mohandas Gandhi's
philosophy of non-violence.”
Goswami says. "Some say he is
not qualified, but I’m not sure
what qualified means. Political
skills are good for the good
times, but communication is
most important in the bad
times, and Kajiv has that
ability.”
According to Thurber, the
remaining question for those
who are closely watching the
situation in India is: Will India
fall apart due to political uncer
tainty and religious violence?
Thurber says no.
"Right now India is in a
desperate situation," he says.
‘‘But India will survive.
They’ve always been able to
pick themselves up by the boot
straps.”
