United States is not even debatable.’'
Taylor said the debate wasn't only about the lan
guage of the proposal
"Most faculty (who) want to destroy the require
ment don't want to open up discussion aliout peo
ples whose voices have been historically
submerged." Taylor said
Student Lydia Lerma said the incentives for u
multicultural curriculum should lie obvious.
"The majority of students need to understand
they can gam something from me. my history, lan
guage and culture." Lerma said "I am Chicana.
and in this society I am forced to act and behave
differently because l tun a woman, my skin is
brown and my parents speak another language "
Yulianna hinliergof the Jewish Student Union
listed a number of nets of anti-Semitism. "It makes
me feel afraid to say I'm Jewish." she said.
Assistant Professor Clarence Spigner railed

University administration to respond "Is anti
Semitism important to Johnson Hall' I n Myles
Brand? it doesn't seem to lie.'' he said

The Self-Aware Universe
How Consciousness Creates the Material World
UO Professor of Physics Amit Goswami, Ph D,
will sign copies of his stimulating new book which shat
ters the widely held worldview that matter is the primary
"stuff' of creation.
The Se(f A wart Universe shows that by adopting
a philosophy of idealism, in which consciousness, not
matter, is taken to be the primary "stuff” of creation, we
can obtain a consistent paradox-free interpretation of the
new physics.
This book brings together the most recent discov
eries in quantum physics and
provides a powerful argument
for transforming not only the
way we view nature, but also
how we view our own personal
reality.
