Ishaq has been studying at the University for more
than a year and said his experience in the United
States has been a positive one, despite the govern
ment’s stricter controls on nonimmigrants. Ishaq
added he has traveled across the country and has
never been met with discrimination or rough treat
ment because of his origins.
“Americans are one of the most tolerant peoples
in the world ... It’s what to do with the government
that’s the issue,” Ishaq said light-heartedly.
Sale said Special Registration is just the first meas
ure INS is implementing to abide by Congress’s man
date that a nonimmigrant entry-exit system be in
place by 2004. In addition, fingerprints and photo
graphs must be made a part of all official travel docu
ments used to enter the United States by 2004r
Al-Rahbi said many international students are con
cerned about being scrutinized so closely because it’s
possible that an individual might be singled out based
on information that has been misconstrued.
“We understand the government’s need to protect
itself, but we need to know our rights so we can pro
tect ourselves if there are any misunderstandings or
mistakes,” Al-Rahbi said.
Stark said as long as international students closely
follow the new rules, they’re in little danger of being
targeted or arrested.
“If students are very careful about maintaining
their legal status, they’re less likely to have reasons
for concern,” Stark said.

Student Khaled Ishaq sits in the EMU study lounge Wednesday night
looking through the paper work that he must fill out to attend the
University after September 11th.
Grievance
continued from page 1
threatening remarks to her and others.
“He said ‘I hate all these fucking
women on campus; something has
to be done,’” Keller said.
Austin denied using those'exact
words but said that the statement
was similar to his actual wording.
“I’m sure it was inflammatory,”
he said. “It was partly in jest and
partly serious.”
Austin said his comment was not
directed at Keller and was not meant
as a threat. He said he was talking to
College Republicans’ chairman Jar
rett White about theology outside his
office and thought the office was
empty when he made the remark.
Keller disputes this and said
Austin looked at her before making
the comment.
She suggested in the grievance that
the group cut off contact with Austin
or take responsibility for his actions.
White said while he was unaware
of the grievance, he was upset it had
been filed against the group and not
against Austin specifically.
“The College Republicans never
sanctioned or sent (Austin) to talk
about his issues,” White said.
Austin said he was also not aware
of the grievance when the student
senate discussed and subsequently
tabled the issue in executive session
Nov. 26. According to senate rules,
all parties need to be notified 72
hours prior to any meeting.
“That’s a stark violation of all my
constitutional rights,” Austin said.
Student senators could not be
reached for comment as of press time.
Austin also said his comments
should not reflect on the group.
“It was in the office space, but so
what?” he said. “Most College Re
publicans don’t think this way.”
Austin said he sent the senate and
Keller an apology, but he declined to
comment on its content.
Keller said she received the apolo
gy and has accepted it but would not
drop the grievance.
After looking over the grievance,
White said the senate should not
pursue it.
“It disappoints me,” he said. “We
didn’t do anything.”
White said he did not think the
College Republicans would expel
Austin, but former chairman Matt
Pfeiffer said there has not been a fi
nal decision.
“The College Republicans will
look into the particulars and details
of this grievance in accordance with
our bylaws and constitution and de
cide whether or not this may be
grounds for expulsion,” Pfeiffer said.

Library
continued from page 7
library’s third location in its history.
The first Eugene Public Library was
built in 1906 on the comer of 11th
Avenue and Willamette Street.
While the downtown library is
moving to its new location, the Shel
don and Bethel branches will be
open seven days a week and will
have expanded hours.
This year’s annual Authors and
Artists Fair will serve as a farewell par
ty for the old library. The event will be
held from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. Saturday,
and will feature 33 Oregon authors as
well as musicians and visual artists.
The event is free, but a portion of book
sales will benefit the Eugene Public Li
brary Foundation.
