An Equal Opportunity Employer Mural removed for safety reasons Robbie Rmvh Ontgor 0**Y lrnurw) A mural painted during New Student Orientation Week was removed Tuesday and Wednes day from a sidewalk for safety reasons. according to a Universi ty official. The mural, painted on a side walk near the KMU Hast l awn and Carson Hall, was removed because it could he slippery when wet. ac< circling to fat kie Halier, ac ting direc tor of the Student Orientation Stall More than 100 students, including many new residents, created the reproduction of the Student Orientation Staff logo A number of students were upset to sec* the mural removed from the sidewalk "It was a nic e piece of art." said Inbar Cohen, a resident of University Housing The Uni versitv "should have left it to deteriorate on its own." she said Removing the mural "was a waste of people's time." said Aleena Kliever, a resident nssis ton! In (.arson. I he point ot the mural "was to have people become part of the University, but now we're going to power wash you away Welcome to the University." she said, referring to the removal of the mural However, safety was the pre vailing factor according to Balz er. "We didn’t want to risk peo ple falling" because of the mur al. Balzer said. The area around the mural is .is roped off during rainy weather to prevent people from slipping. The decision to remove the mural was made by Balzer and Carey Drayton, director of the Office of Public Safety. Balzer said Unsuccessful efforts were made to find a way to make the walkway less slippery before the mural was removed, Balzer said Some said that they would have preferred that the mural remained on the sidewalk. "Students put in a lot of effort" into creating the mural, sod Kelly Morris, resident dine tor for (.arson Hall. Morris // If has a nice piece of art, (the university) should hove left it to deteriorate on its own said he hoped something could hnve been done to the mural to make it less slippery without having to remove it. The slippery conditions were quite unexpected, according to Ralzer. even though point stores had been consulted for this very reason. She speculated that an additive to add traction, such as grit, should have been added to the paint during the production of the mural. Attempts are being made to restore the mural to a lesser-trav - eled sidewalk or to a wall. A similar activity will lie planned for next year, said Balzer. although with a different design. -INBAM COHEN University Housing resident School of Law opens two more clinics Javier Cervantes The University 's Sr hoot of I-avv was one of three M'lei ted nationally hy the ITS Department of Kdu i-ation to receive two federal grants totaling near ly $500,000 The money will he used to fund two new law clinics The new Mediation Clinic and Health Ijiw Clin i< will join the four existing law clinics on campus (Cavil Ijtw, Prose* ution Law, Public Defense and the Environmental Law Clinics). Clinic al edut a tion in law school terms is an opportunity for stu dents to work under the tutelage of actual practi tioners l.ast weekend was the introductory session for both new clinics. "1 think we were able to show that |the Univer sity) is an excellent school and can support addi tional clinics," said lane Gordon, associate dean for students and program affairs, who authored the request for the mediation grant. In addition, Gordon said, the University demon strated they had a competent staff to take on such a project. "We showed that we had good faculty and administrative support." she said. "The opportu nity for two clinic s would provide and he both good for students on an educ ational basis os well as the community,'' she said Tor example said Gordon, "with our Prosecution Clinic:, students would go to the District Attorneys' Office and work under the supervision of a par ticular District Attorney in addition to the 40 hours of course work that is required In the Dis trict Attorneys' Office students are trained with District Attorneys on actual cases. They help pros ecute." Another example she gave was at the Health Law Clinic, where students can help clients who have been denied benefits, who want reimburse ments or who have been told they are not eligible for some type of service "We want to help those people who are low income and we want to work with clients with short term problems," she said. "We want our students to have mediation expe rience firsthand," said Charles O'Kelley, dean of the law school. "Classes give them theory, hut this gives them a chance to feel what it is like to he a mediator We also hope that students get the feel of what it is like to represent a client,” said O’Kelley. Students will not immediately he expected to mediate by themselves. Director of the Mediation Clinic, Julia Gold said that the process of media tion will begin slowly. "I will train with my students and will mediate with them first. It will be a co-mediation. From there, students will be able to co-mediate in groups by themselves." she said. O'Kelley says that the mediation aspect of law is fast growing. The need for more mediators has to do with more clients wanting to work out their dif ferences without the time and expense of litiga tion, he said. "The cost of a trial is so enormous, not only in terms of money, but in terms of relationships that an* destroyed. People are going through other dis pute resolution stages that sometimes make it unnecessary to go through litigation and often pre serves relationships," he said. Presently there are four third-year law students in each of the two new clinics. Bv next term (fur don hopes to add four students to each new clinic "These clinics are very competitive,” Gordon said "So the way that we choose the students is by a lottery" "This is very exciting for us. Both of these areas in law are cutting edge in the sense that it would be very valuable for students to gain the experi ence It feels good to combine that with them help ing the community," she said.
