Multicultural Center
Although the GTF will ploy a
crucial role in the supervision
and the shaping of the center, it 's
important to note that overall
operations of the center will be
i onducted by a hoard of direc
tors.
"The center will lie guided by
a board of directors. In hiring a
GTF. we didn't hire a director,"
Geltner said.

will comprise all interested stu
dents. including one reprosenta
(ivi* from each ethnic student

Auction to benefit AIDS services
By Kim Challis-Roft

Thu high bidders at the ’(lifts front the Heart"
Iwnefil auction Saturday in the HMU Ballroom may
walk away with original art. an antique desk or a
weekend vacation package, but the real winners
will be the people of Ijtne County, organizers say.
All proceeds will Ite used for support services for
people with HIV or AIDS and for local HIV pre
vention education, said Gonna Southworth, direc
tor ofHIV/AIDS Resources. Inc She said she ex|>tx:ts
the auction to be a success.
"People like to give money to non-profit orga
nizations." Southworth said, "but they also like
to get something tangible in return. An auction is
more fun than sticking a check in the mail."
Last year the auction brought in S23,000. and
Southworth said the goal this year is $25,000.
The auction will lx* co-hosted by state Rep. Cyn
thia Wooten. Wooten said she believes it s impor
tant to keep HIV/AIDS information in front of the
general public.
"Over 1,300 Lane County residents have died
from AIDS-related illness,’ Wooten said "It's impor
taut to realize it's not a trend or a phase ... it s not
going to go away. We need to remain vigilant in get
ting information to people about safe sex and the
danger of AIDS and we need to start locally."
Wooten said she is involved with the auction for
another reason as well.
"Look at the timing. It's the perfect way to start
the holidays,” she said with a grin. "And besides,
it's a lot of fun.”
Southworth agrees. "Auctions are fun in them
selves, but we also have some surprises lined up,"
she said. "For $10 a person, you can buy a balloon
with a number in it that corresponds with a mys
tery prize."
Other donated items up for hid include an antique
secretary desk, erotic art prints from China and a
coastal getaway package complete with bed and
breakfast accommodations and horseback riding on
the beach. Bids open for the silent auction at 5 p.m.
and will continue until the regular auction begins
at 7 p.m. Larry Tardie will serve as auctioneer.
Tickets, which include light hors d'oeuvres, are
$10 in advance and $11 at the door. For more infor
mation call HIV/ AIDS Resources. Inc. at 342-508K.
Hate Free Week ends with workshop
By Jennl Stone
fty the Qragon Darty l mtnald
Hate Free Week events end
today with a sexual assault pre
vention workshop, which com
plements the Violence Against
Women Campaign beginning in
December, according to ASUO
Safety Affairs.
"The workshop will start peo
ple thinking about increasing
safety for women," said Shannon
Wall, executive assistant for Safe
ty Affairs '"Hie Violence Against
Women Campaign is basically
doing the same thing."
Wall will facilitate the work
shop with another executive
assistant for Safety Affairs, Der
by Johnston Both women have
been trained in sexual assault
prevention.
Split into three one-hour sec
lions. the workshop will focus
heavily on group participation in
different discussions.
Planned for the first hour is a
discussion on facts, myths and
definitions of sexual assault. A
video will be shown with a dis
cussion following.
The workshop will conclude
with a review and group talk on
the resources available on cam
pus that deal with sexual assault
and its prevention.
"It's an opportunity for people
to learn skills for their future,”
Wall said. "It all starts with edu
cation and prevention."
Wall said there has been a great
deal of learning throughout the
week. Many stereotypes, she said,
have been taken apart by those
participating.
"This week has gone really
well." said Troy Shields. ASUO
Safely Affairs coordinator. "It's
my view that Hate Free Week will
turn into something big."
Wall said she was pleased with
the week on the whole, though
there wasn't a huge campus
response. She blamed low stu
dent participation on the preoc
cupation with Measure 5 rami
fications. lack of free time and
midterms.
Safety Affairs is preparing for
the Dec. 6 kickoff of the Violence
Against Women Campaign and
planned the sexual assault work
shop accordingly.
It will get people actively
thinking and f>ecoming involved
with violence issues. Wall said.
The workshop begins today at
1 p.rn. in EMU Century Room A
and is open to the public.
UNIVERSITY BRIEFS
• The bicycle path, playing
field and parking lot south of
Knight Library will be closed
Saturday morning as a heli
copter will lift two air-condi
tioning units onto the library’s
roof.
The closures are necessary to
maintain a clear flight path to
lift the units, which together
weigh nearly two tons. The
equipment will be picked up
from the University parking lot
on Hast 16th Avenue — between
the library and the School of
Music — between 7:30 and H
a.m., and noise from the heli
copter may disturb residents
near the area.
When in place, the equipment
will provide an air-conditioned
environment for storage of rare
books, manuscripts and photo
materials in the library's Special
Collections department. The
work is part of the S7.67 million
renovation of the 237,000-square
