PROTEST
continued from page 1A
meeting a secret.
"We do not publicize our meet
ings ahead of time because they are
intended to be private discussions
among our presidents and between
our presidents and their guests,"
Toiv said.
Toiv said the private meetings "allow
for an unfettered exchange of views."

Professor Regina Psaki, who spoke at
the rally, said the secrecy surround
ing Tenet's visit was more for Tenet's
comfort than anything else.
"Why is it the University's job to
protect the director of the CIA against
embarrassing questions about our
foreign policy?" Psaki said.
In his speech, Tenet discussed re
search universities and their role in the
war on terrorism, according to Toiv.
"Director Tenet acknowledged the
key role that research universities
play in enhancing the country's
knowledge and understanding of
other nations and cultures, which is
a critical element in the nation's ef
fort to confront the problem of ter
rorism," Toiv said.

Takenori Momiyama discusses his concern
about the lack of notification of CIA Director
George Tenet's visit to campus.
Toiv added that research universi
ties help fight terrorism with science.
"Research universities are among
the leading institutions conducting
research that is needed to counteract
biological and chemical forms of
terrorism," Toiv said.
ASUO President Maddy Melton
wondered whether the University is
conducting research related to the
war on terrorism.
"I want to know if that's happen
ing," Melton said. "1 think that's
why (Tenet) was here, to talk to all
60 university presidents, to talk
about research. 1 think it's really im
portant that we know what was said
in there."
The protesters demanded a tran
script of Tenet's speech and an apol
ogy from University President Dave
Frohnmayer.
Harry Battson, associate vice pres
ident for University Strategic Com
munications, said he doubted a
transcript ofTenet's speech existed.
Battson also responded to Johnson's
allegation that the University spent
$ 10,000 to prepare for Tenet's visit.
"There was an effort under (Vice
President for Administration) Dan
Williams to make the campus look
as good as possible," Battson said,
noting landscaping work and
greater-than-usual efforts by janito
rial staff to keep the campus clean.
"That had to do with wanting to
showcase for the university presi
dents. That had nothing to do with
George Tenet."
Johnson said the secrecy sur
rounding the meeting contradicted
the spirit of the University.
"It strikes at the ideals this cam
pus was founded on," Johnson said.
"Anything on this campus that seeks
to neglect the input of students, fac
ulty or staff is anti-democratic and
weakens the notion that this cam
pus is committed to collaborative
government."
One student said few people
would have a problem with Tenet's
visit if it weren't for the secrecy sur
rounding it.
"Without that air of mystery, stu
dents would welcome them more to
campus," sophomore Sarah Koski said.
