[LM_NET] BATTLEFIELDS AND BURIAL GROUNDS

[Debbie Reese <debreese@UIUC.EDU>]

Dear Colleagues:

This coming Thursday, a forum titled RACISM, POWER, AND PRIVILEGE AT UIUC 
will be held on our campus from 4 to 6:00 in Foellinger Hall. If you're 
near us, please come. It is a campus and community event designed to 
address events and issues of racism at UIUC. This includes racially themed 
parties in addition to UIUC's "Chief Illiniwek."

UI President Joseph White, UIUC Chancellor Richard Herman, and UIUC Provost 
Linda Katehi will be on a panel listening to community members issue 
statements, and respond to questions put forth by the audience.
