By Sarah Clark
I (rated debate aver the new
race, gender and non-Kuro
pean requirement continued
in the Student Insurgent last
week when editors listed five
professors' names and office
numbers on the paper's back
page under the headline. "Are
they RACISTS?!? Ask them "
The entire May It issue of
the monthly student publica
tion was devoted to support
ing the new requirement
Insurgent editors said the back
page was part of an effort to
help people understand the
reasons for changing the
requirement ami make them
i art' about the issue.
”1 don't care i( people gut
iifigrv." said InsurjfMtl ussch i
.iit> editor Cinde Kosanbalm
” T his i umpus has lieen so
apatltetn I don't know what it
takos for |ieople to gut engaged
in discussion about this."
Three of the live professors
hsti'd returned h'mrmld phone
i alls They said discussion is
fine, but the insurgent stepped
beyond the bounds of good
journalism
"They revealed themselves
to be emotionally handi
capped when they chose to
implicitly libel and intimidate
five persons. including
myself." said physu s Profes
sor Paul Csonka
insurgent staff members
said there is nothing wrong
vvilli exercising their right Id
free speech
"1(1 like to know (he proper
wav lo handle llie viuleme
I ve experienced on tins < am
pus." said Tonija Edwards,
who has worked with the
Insiirfitmt
Insurgent editors said the
Iwu k pane doesn't say the pro

asks a question
"This is one means of chal
lenging people to determine
what racism means to them.”

the new requirement

fessors listed hove been some
