sion for that. If the girl comes
from a reported abusive situa
tion, the doctor does not have
to notify either parent, but will
notify the state. What we are
hoping is that this will be a
good thing and get the girl out
of that home life and a had situ
ation."
"They do not want to con
front the main issue, and the
main issue is that parents do
have a right to know So
they're picking on trivial
points," Atteberrv said. "The
basic concept has always been
that for a major decision for a
minor, parents should be in
volved.”
Herbert said arguing parent
rights misses the important is
sues.
"The strategy of the propo
nents of this measure is to say
'parental rights' " she said.
"They're not dealing with the
reality of the situation. Teen
agers don't want to tell their
parents. The kids coming from
good stable relationships with
their parents are the ones just
as likely to not tell them.
Harbert said even without the
parent notification law, 55 per
cent to 65 percent of pregnant
teens already tell at least one
parent of a planned abortion.
"Even pro-choice people
support parent notification of
abortion, and it's just a matter
of getting out and letting peo
ple know what the conse
quences are," she said "This
is not a matter of family com
munication; it just forces our
young women to try self-in
duced abortions or to leave the
state to have abortions. If this
happens, our young women
will die."
Atteberry said she disagrees
with the idea that Measure 10
is the first step in restricting all
abortions
"That's not at all what this
measure is about," she said. "It
is no se( ret that the pro-lifers
want to stop abortions, but it is
important to look at each law
individually This measure gets
back to family involvement and

in the way KKMA will be run
“I think it's good we came
together and discussed the rep

other student leaders will meet
Wednesday night at 7:30 to dis

One possibility is a 17-tnember

teenager.
"You can legislate communi
cation in the family." Atteberry
said "It can be done very easi
ly The parent can be notified
and it will create a chance to
look at the problems The best
thing for the girl and the family
is that they face the problem
and begin to work on the un
derlying problems One parent
being notified is not a radical
or extreme idea
Herbert disagrees
“It's verv misleading to say
this helps family communica
tion." she said "Communica
tion starts in the formative
years; it's not something that
can be legislated We feel the
most important step is for par
ents to loach their own morality
on sexuality. We think preven
tative measures is the best way
to stop abortions.
"Ideally, parents should lie
involved in this decision, but
not all families are ideal." Har

they can go to their parents "

"I think there is an increased risk (of drink

big groups walking to parties," Mills said
Many HAs contend that when residents do
drink in the dorms, they seem to l>e doing so qui

"I think that people arr just staying in their
rooms.” Henshaw said.
"My dorm is really good about staying quiet
ly Imhind dosed doors.” Mills said "It's good on
paper, but in actuality it's really hard to enforce.
"I know they're drinking, and I try to stop as
much of it as I can. but they're not stupid They
