Regurgitated
Peter Cogswell's artic le on
the recently constructed pri
mate facility in Streisinger Hall
[ODE. Oct. 1H) was nothing
more than administrative rheto
ric consumed and regurgitated
accordingly by yet another na
ive Emerald reporter, much to
the satisfaction of the white
men in johnson Hall.
Exhibit A: The reason for the
story was '‘John Mosley, vice
president for research, dec idl'd
it would be appropriate for peo
ple to see. however, only a
select group (mostly press) was
allowed to view the facility
Students for the Ethical
Treatment of Animals, "those
concerned about the treatment
of researc h animals on cam
pus." were prohibited from the
guided tour, contrary to one
photo c aption, and have consis
tently been denied access to the
building.
Exhibit B: Dr Jack
Vandorlip. director of animal
care, stated the eating and
drinking habits of the captive
monkeys were normal, yet he
failed to mention that water de
privation is integral to Dr
Marrocco's work (honest mis
take).
Finally, exhibit C Are we. as
educated (hopefully) students
to believe that these otherwise
social creatures denied their
natural instincts and manipu
lated with electrodes and wires
— are actually "happy” in
their steel cages simply because
the administration says so?
Think about it.

I thought that the cafeteria in
the EMU Eishbowl was sup
posed to i>e for students
The prices are just as high or
higher than the little conve
nient stores surrounding the
campus I find it truly amazing
that on a student's budget we
would have to pay such high
prices.

not able to due to a lai k of

White s.iid that Parker's visi
bilitv on MTV and pla\ on !o
cal radio stations should bring
a large audience "Students
who already know his music
and respec t him because of that
will come listen to his mes

One of Parker's priorities is
to i hange the stereotypical im
age of rap artists as people with

image with one of r.ip as a tool
for reaching dissatisfied hl.uk
