TRAFFIC SAFElY IS TOP ISSUE 1Vash~gtODState ver reen Wednesday, April 19; 1989 Vol. 95; No. 152 Safe sex Afternoon _sun Students can get AIDS also by Roger Nyhus Evergreen Staff Approximately 50 WSU students may be infected with the AIDS virus and not know it. "On a campus our size the national sta- tistics estimate that 45 people may be infected with the AIDS virus," said Mike Church, the organizer of WSU's first safe sex workshop. However, there is no way to determine the number of infected individuals, if there are any, said an AIDS educator at the Whitman County Health Department. Three people in Whitman County have tested positive for the AIDS virus in the last three years, said Fran Martin, a nurse at the health department. She said she did not know if any of the individuals were WSU students because of confidentiality in testing. The safe sex workshop begins at 7 p.m. today in Todd 344. Gordon Cheney, a trained safe sex instructor from the Spokane AIDS Net- work, will speak about safe sex techniques and proper condom use. "Hopefully, people wiil learn to have both fun and safe sex," Church said.
