Continued from page 4 i Dean's List; I am not proud that 1 | am being honored just because I c am black. I feel that the University should honor all students who made the Dean's List, instead of paying tribute to a set-aside group. I understand that the University is proud of the accomplishments of minorities, but it is time for all of us to stop putting people in particular groups. I feel that to honor me as a black student who made the Dean's List, is only a way of embarrassing me. This kind of attitude seems to imply that the administration is surprised that black students make the Dean's List, and therefore they should be given special recognition. I have been here for tour years and a lot of emphasis has been placed on unity between all students. When only a minority portion of a certain group of students is honored by the university, it causes hard feelings and racism seems to be the focus of attention once again. Many students made the Dean's List; it is time for the university to honor all students who achieve recognition instead of focusing on a minority segment of students. This issue means so much to me that I am publicly refusing to be a part of any reception that will not honor all students who deserve recognition for academic achievement for fall semester 1984. Sincerely, Name witheld by request ROOM SIGN-UP - ACADEMIC YEAR 1985-86 Returning Students April 22, Monday: 9 to 4 - SAME ROOM Go to Area Lobby April 23, Tuesday: 9 to 4 - SAME AREA/DIFFERENT ROOM Go to Area Lobby April 25, Thursday 10 to 2 - DIFFERENT AREA Go to Lower Level of Dodson Cafeteria Off-Campus Students April 26, Friday 8 to 5 ONLY Go to Housing Office-Dodson Annex Off campus students wanting to move into the residence halls will be allowed to reserve available spaces.
