A Vigorous Voice for Minorities

Prof. Madeleine M. Joullie raises some pointed questions regarding the University's commitment to affirmative action

chairperson of the University's TheCouncil on Equal Opportunity, an ad- visory group that reports to the president and the provost, said this week that the Administration, by its "secretiveness," had impeded the work of her committee on the matter of affirmative action. She was referring to the University's unwillingness to disclose details of its negotiations with U. S. Labor Dept. offi- cials regarding the audit, begun in Janu- ary, of Penn's equal opportunity program. The University is currently making some changes in that plan. According to Dr. Madeleine M. Joullie, a professor of organic chemistry who has headed the equal opportunity panel since its inception in 1976, "If we had had ac- cess to this new affirmative action pro- gram that is being developed we could have made recommendations in those areas. We need to see, for example, whether there are grievance procedures for everyone. But universities tend to be very secretive." (See VOICE, page 4)

Opening Doors: Mr. James Robinson, director of the University's Office of Equal Opportunity, holds an elevator door for Dr. Madeleine Joullie, chairperson of the Council on Equal Opportunity. Both have worked closely on affirmative action issues. "We used to run together," says Robinson, talking of the pair's fondness for jogging around campus. But lately Dr. Joullie has taken to bicycling instead. Photo Eddie Bishop
