M urch closer to condemning
recordW uses rmclear weapons,
and stressed — rather than
obscured — their “profound
skepticism” of possession of
nuclear weapons.
They left the older bishops,
such as Archbishop Philip
Hanan of New Orleans and
Auxiliary Bishop Patrick Ah
ern of New York, isolated in
their defense of nuclear de
terrence and the possible use
of nuclear weapons.
Tuesday, the bishops had
to deal with nearly 400 re
maining amendments to the
pastoral letter, “The Chal
lenge of Peace: God’s Promise
and Our Response,” that
almost 280 bishops have prop
osed. A final vote was ex
pected later that day.
To pass, the 44,000-word
document needs the support
of 192 of the 288 active
bishops. Monday’s votes sug
gests that the “peace bishops”
will have little trouble winning
the final vote.
What was expected to be
the major battle Monday
turned out to be a rout.
The bishops overwhelm
ingly restored the use of the
word “halt” to the document
— instead of “curb” — in their
support for “immediate, bila
teral, verifiable agreements”
to end testing, production and
deployment of new nuclear
weapons systems.

“The emotional situation is
too critical to let the situation go
on indefinitely,” O’Connor says.
Natowitz says the review be
gan last November as the second
in a series of chemistry depart
ment evaluations. Last year,
Chemistry 103 and 104 were
evaluated. Next year, the orga
nic chemistry program will be
evaluated.
The purpose of the evalua
tions is to find the strengths and
weaknesses of the chemistry
programs, and to provide an
opportunity for the committee
members to make suggestions,
Natowitz says.
O’Connor says his staff was
not allowed any representation
in the committee. But Natowitz
says O’Connor worked closely
with him, and suggested faculty
members for the committee. He
says O’Connor also spoke to the
committee. The committee
members were chosen by Nato
witz.
Natowitz says he cannot stop
O’Connor from submitting his
resignation, and that if he does
receive it, he will not accept it.
He says he has received calls
from concerned students, and
that the situation has been
“blown out of proportion.”
He added that he thinks
O’Connor is “looking for a con
frontation.”
Deputy Corps Commander
Brian Terrell says there are 228
freshmen cadets who are enrol
led in chemistry 102, and that
many of them are writing letters
to the chemistry department in j
support of O’Connor and the
first year chemistry program.

the business analysis depart

Fowler describes the two dif

of the same coin or two slices of
the same pie.
Buffa agrees.
“We’re using the computers
over here to help solve business
problems,” Buffa said. “Over
there, they’re trying to build bet
ter computers to help us solve

“Our niche is to place people
