A group of University students has inten- ,
sifted its efforts to work for peace in Central
America in anticipation of President Reagan's
request for $100 million to fund the
Nicaraguan rebels fighting the Sandinista
government. ..
-t <•„.
During a Monday night meeting, a hand
ful of students'linow-n as the laitin American
Support Committee outlined possible options
to encourage the U.S. congressmen from this
area to vote against the upcoming Contra aid
„ request and opt for a peaceful approach to
resolving conflict in Central America.

on the upcoming congressional vote on the
Contra aid. LASC has provided writing
materials and information at a table in the
EMU to generate on-the-spot letters by
students..
"The letters can elucidate the issues
students think are important, such as opposi
tion to Contra terrorism activity, U.S. interven
tion or funding," Kikhoff said.
Students particularly should be interested
in the funding issue, said Chris Orsinger. a
staff member for the Council for Human Rights
in Latin America who helps facilitate LASC
meetings.
Reagan's budget calls for reducing student
^financial aid by $200 million, while asking for'
■$H)0 million for the Contras. Orsinger said.
.LASC has focused on encouraging Sen. .
Bob'.Packwood and Sen. Mark Hatfield to not
■°only’vote against Contra aid. but to take an ac- •
. 'tive'role .in opposing the funding. • . \ :
