Action Continued from Page 1 “Bill Cosby’s kids should not be eli gible for affirmative action,” Duncan said. “White Appalachian coal min ers’ children should be.” The double standards created in situations such as admissions standards for minorities also create additional racial tension, Duncan said. But Anna Shavers, associate pro fessor of law, said she knew about affirmative action both because of her legal background and her personal life. “I live the racial issues,” Shavers said. When she was growing up in Little Rock, Ark., she said she was forced to sit on the back of the bus, drink from separate fountains and take psycho logical tests to get into “white” schools. Affirmative action should remain legal because of events like those, she said, and should act as a repayment for injuries incurred. Vice Chancellor for Student Af fairs James Griesen agreed. “One who inflicts damages on an other unjustly should have to pay for those damages,” Griesen said. “I can not think of anything that deserves more corrective action than what we have done to Native Americans and African Americans.” Universities have a special obliga tion to recruit minority students and staff, Griesen said. Providing role models for minority students is impor tant. But usingaffirmative action doesn’t only benefit minorities, Griesen said. “We need to teach students how to work in a multicultural society,” Griesen said. “You can’t do that by having an isolated, whitewall on cam pus.” Postal Service honors NU From Staff Reports Despite the cancellation of the “Night of Champions” celebration April 19, the Postal Service will still offer commemorative postcards and postmarks.
