The UNL Latin American Solidarity Committee
said its members wHl picket at commencement
ceremonies May 12 jrs front cf the Bob Dsvany
Sports Center from 9 a.m. to 10;30 a.m., LASCO
member Ann Aidrich rriJ.
According to Aidrich, LASCO b an organization of
universities across the nation. It la sfilli&ted with
the US, Committee in Solidarity with the ftopte cf
El Salvador, which has asked universities to help in
their campaign against U.S. intervention in Latin
America.
Aidrich said 15 student LASCO members will
hand out leaflets to passing students and members
of the community. These leaflets are intended to'
inform the public cfvitsl statistics and background
information on LASCO's cause against U.S. inter
vention, she said. The Saturday picketing will be
intended as a move to educate both students and
t he community of the events occurring in Latin and
Central America.
According to Graduation Committee head, Pro
fessor Pat Berger, news of the picketing had not
reached the committee.
They (the committee) will discuss the contingent
situation in their nest meeting " he said.
According to Richard Armstrong, vice-chancellor
for Student Affairs, there has been no demonstra
tion or picketing at graduation since 1977. He said
the administration also was unaware of LASCO's
intent to picket at graduation.
"We will have to assess this situation," he said,
before a decision ia made on how to handle the
situation.
"Their idea seems innocent enough for what their
purpose appears to be," Armstrong said.
Anything more than a simple demonstration
would be uncharacteristic of our students, he said.
Their wars are internal," Aidrich said, speaking of
the Latin American countries. It's not for our coun
try to decide their issues for them.
"It's their decision for the kind of government they
want or the economy they want," she said.
- More than 500 American companies have busi
ness tlm down in Central and South America,
Aidrich said. These also are companies many UNL
students could be employed by, she said.
According to LASCO member Jeffrey Adams, the
cheap labor Latin Americans provide msy benefit
ithese companies, but at the same time "it hurts
unemployment here in the U.S." A
.Aidrich said men must register for the draft
before they can receive financial aid for school. This
'obligates them to' military service or work for the
government if anything should develop, especially in
Latin America. -
According to Adams, Timing is important because
wars in Central America are escalating."-
