Student Senate
Human rights committee now part of bylaws
By Brad Bowlin
Assistant City Editor
The university's Human Rights Awareness Committee became a permanent part of the Senate bylaws at its Feb. 24 meeting.
Wednesday's bylaw amendment provides for the committee to continue its activities every year. The committee was originally formed in a resolution last October, which expires in May. The amendment, written by Graduate Senator David Wells, empowers the committee to spon-
The committee will plan a Human Rights Axvareness Week for the spring semester.__________________________________
sor a Human Rights Awareness Week every spring semester.
"The week will include not only educational events but opportunities for students to become involved,” the amendment says. "The committee may also sponsor events throughout the year.”
Greek Senator Anthony Gatti invited senators to join him in investigating the projected 8.5 percent cost increase for students attending the university this fall.
“I don't think that's very wise," Gatti said.
Senate President Bruce Clausen said Lyn Hutton, senior vice president of administration, and Joseph Merante, dean of admissions and financial aid, will be at the senate's March 9 meeting to discuss changes made in the Admissions and Financial Aid Department.
The department has been under fire since last semester, when processing of many students' financial aid packages was delayed.

Former airmen to share experiences
By Jordana Bieze
Staff Writer
Five fighter pilots who served in allblack squadrons during World War II will discuss contributions by blacks to the U.S. Air Force at noon today in Bovard Auditorium.
The presentation by members of the
Tuskegee Airmen, sponsored by the Black Staff and Faculty Caucus, is one in a series of campus events to highlight Black History Month. The former pilots who will speak today are William Melton, Oliver Goodall, Flora Lane, James Crowder and retired Col. Edward Gleed.
The original Tuskegee Airmen were
named for the Tuskegee Institute in Alabama, where they were trained. The pilots served from 1941 to 1948 in separate all-biack units, until former President Harry Truman signed an executive order integrating the military.
The 450 members of the 99th Fighter Squadron, the 332nd Fighter Group and the 477th Bomber Group were (Continued on page 8)

Officers, copters draw 20,000 to fair
By Gale Lance
Staff Writer
An estimated 20,000 curious onlookers, serious consumers and security experts crowded Trousdale Parkway Wednesday to take part in the university's third annual Crime Prevention Fair, billed as the state's largest.
Police departments from throughout Southern California demonstrated crime-fighting equipment and techniques and tried to recruit students, as vendors exhibited their products nearby.
Terry Riley, University Security's crime prevention officer who helped organize the fair, estimated that turnout for the three-hour event was about twice that of last year's fair. In addition to the university community, senior citizen groups were bused in from Pasadena. Elementary school students also visited.
Lyn Hutton, senior vice president of administration, sat clenching her seat and staring straight ahead as she was lifted above the crowd in a jet-propelled helicopter from the Los Angeles Sheriff Department. Co-workers peered out of office windows in Bovard Administration Building.
The aircraft was one of two helicopters on display at the fair. Organizers agreed that the helicopters attracted the most attention. Some people scoffed at the displays, but most seemed to be impressed by the large exhibits of weapons and equipment.
