As a member of his mcuepser Cabinet for one and a half years I can attest to his shortcomings. But although I don't always support him, I feel recent attacks on his job OFAMgRICAtf performance are overblown and contain misleading, unwarranted ar- guments. wmrsaM As president, Kevin is not solely responsible for any legislation com- ing out of the Undergraduate Student Government. While he does pwesreoesr have veto power and can (and does, from time to time) input his opin- ions, all resolutions are ultimately the product of USG senators who H0S1M6& IN debate and vote on every bill passed and who, to my knowledge, have never been vetoed by Kevin. I admit USG's accomplishments this semester have tended more toward national issues than campus ones (I feel we would be much more effective on the latter) but again, this is not the fault of one per- son. What we have done for the campus though, is laudable. Kevin and in USG deserve credit, not blame, for the faculty and course evaluation booklet (which an overwhelmingly-large percentage of students feel was a project well done, according to a recent University survey.) And Kevin was "at the forefront of the student movement following the East Merry/Frazee incidents," pushing for a citizens' review board right from the start.

The event was the kick-off for the University of Idaho's Sexual Assault Awareness Week sponsored by the Women's Center and the ASUI Safety Task Force. The march, which began at Guy Wicks Field, took marchers on a winding tour of campus, lead by Safety Task Force Chair Angela Rauch and Vice-Chair Rhonda Anderson. "Last year over 119 cases of abuse have been reported to the Women's Center. We need to increase awareness and help victims of these types of violent crimes to gain the courage to . speak out and get help," Anderson said. z'4w" 4. During the march a whistle was blown every 15 seconds, signifying the statistic of one woman battered in the United States every 15 ~A'!. seconds. Similarly, each minute a bell was rung, signifying the rape of one woman. The march ended on the steps of the Administration Building where poetry, written by victims, was read and family members and survivors spoke about loss and hope. The mes- t. sage alw'ays: "Fight back, it's not your fault, get help, you'e not alone" was heard as encourage- ment from the victims and their families.

"I said I could not guarantee that at all,” Shultz said, recounting his taiks with the Soviet leader in Moscow.
