We The Colkge Voice November 6, 1990 Page 2 CONNTHOUGHT On November 13, 1989 in Portland, Oregon, at about 1:30 a.m., Mulegeta Seraw, a 27- year-old Ethiopian, was saying goodbye to two friends who had just dropped him off outside his apartment. While Seraw and his friends were talking, they were attacked by a local Skinhead group, the East Side A Defined Agenda White Pride, and savagely beaten. In the midst of the attack, Seraw's two friends were able to escape. Seraw was not so lucky, however, and was bludgeoned to death with a baseball bat. In the wake of the alarming increase in hate crimes which occurred in the 1980' s, and which appears sure to continue into the 1990's, stories such as this one are all too familiar. What is unique about this and a Clear Choice case, however, and what should serve as a source of inspiration for all those who strive to promote ra- cial justice in our society is that the organized hate business which perpetrates these acts was On November 6, Connecticut resi- The second most important issue is Sending Racists finally brought to justice. dents will be given the opportunity to how to spur Connecticut's depressed At a trial last month in Portland to hold the elect a new governor.

Seniors- Help Seniors by Lauren Klalzkln ConnectJcut View Editor Residents of 202 Coleman and Riozzi Court, two public 'buildings which are home to senior citzens in New London, received visits from Connecticut College students last Saturday, October 27. The students were participating in a project called Seniors Helping Seniors, in which they assisted tlie senior citizens in filling out questionnaires to assess their needs. Thirty-six freshmen and seniors paticipated in the project, which, ac- cording to Mary Beth Holman, '91, senior class president, will help the New London Senior Citizen task force "to create better programs at the new senior citizens' center and to facilitate better service to the senior citizens in general." Students, in pairs of freshmen and seniors, visited several apartments each between 9:00 a.m, and 1:00 p.m. and helped the residents to fill out the survey. The project was run in conjunction with the Retired Seniors Volunteer Program (RSVP). The senior class learned about this program during the Volunteer Fair. The students' part of the event was coordinated by Aime Conley, '91, senior class council mem bee, through weekly meetings with RSVP. According to Holman, "[Conley] went far beyond herresponsili- ties as a class council member and showed a great deal of initiative by or- ganizing the event and I am highly appreciative." Holman continued, "The whole premise for why we [participated in the event] is my commitment to volunteering ... ever since sophomore year as class president I've tried to bring students together with thecommunity and especially with people who may need special services." In a written statement, Conley explained, 'The project was very suc- cessful- ata follow-up meeting of the New London Senior Citizens ' task force, we reviewed the questionnaires in the presence of the New London Housing Authority, and took steps towards making changes." Conley said that the experience was beneficial to the students as well as the senior citizens. She stated, "The senior citizens were very welcoming and receptive to the students so it was a very enjoyableexpe- • rience for everyone ... Everyone went away feeling great about them- selves and what they had contributed to the senior citizens." Many students made further commitments to visit the seniors again on their own, "which is pretty phenomenal," said Holman. In addition, the senior class has planned a Christmas party on December4, to which they will invite the residents of 202 Coleman and Riozzi Court.
