Being familiar with the issues, the Progressive Student Alliance saw this business interaction as inconsistent with our University's ostensi­ ble ideals. Notre Dame has, through its commitment against sweat­ EDITORIAL CARTOON shop conditions in its apparel production, established an image as an institution seeking to conduct its economic dealings with companies engaged in fair labor practices. Taco Bell definitely does not fit that description. Last week, three representatives from PSA met with Notre Dame's General Counsel Carol Kaesebier to discuss these concerns. Understanding the University cannot terminate their current contract without serious financial repercussions, PSA maintains that even though Notre Dame's commercial agreement is with a local franchise of Taco Bell, it is still a part of the whole. Any future affiliation with Taco Bell is inappropriate in regards to the University's anti-sweat­ shop efforts. Also, I feel by allowing Taco Bell to push its products on our name and reputation, the University inflicts further injury on the tomato pickers. Lastly, as college students, Taco Bell's target market, we too have the potential to aid farmworkers. Student groups all over the country have committed to work in solidarity with CIW to eject Taco Bell from their campuses and spread the word about the boycott. Locally, PSA organizes weekly protests at a Taco Bell location and is planning a myriad of events around this and related issues. If you are not the activist type, I ask you to consider the consequences of your patron­ age of Taco Bell restaurants on Florida farm workers and to get your meal elsewhere. This is one small way we can all walk the path of moral integration.
