Candidates set to face off
Alternate-party candidate gives speech tonight
By Christine Carr
Staff Writer
As the media and the public continue their watch on the two major presidential candidates, Lenora Fulani, the presidential candidate of the New Alliance Party, will speak on campus tonight following the presidential debate.
Fulani, the first black woman to qualify for federal matching funds for a presidential campaign, will speak in Seeley G. Mudd Building, Room 124, at 7:30 p.m.
"She is the first African-American in history to be on the ballot in all 50 states and the first woman to do the same," said Phil Terry, Fulani's press secretary. 'This is a very significant campaign."
Terry said Fulani's campaign, and the support it has received, has many political commentators thinking she might indirectly decide who wins the presidency because of her potential to divide the Democratic vote.
"This is hardball politics," he said.
Kwaku Duren, Fulani's running mate, said the party is a "black-led, multi-racial, progay" organization that is appeal-(See Fulani, page 6)

Fewer than 15 USC students attended a Trojan College Republican poster-making party Wednesday night, despite the brief appearance of John Bush, the vice president's nephew.
Bush, 19, a freshman at Boston University, was surrounded by pizza boxes and paint cans,
as he joked with students at the Phi Sigma Kappa fraternity house.
Picking up a green marker, Bush wrote "Mi-key doesn't like it," on a poster, a slogan he said referred to presidential candidate Michael Dukakis' reaction after losing the Nov. 8 election.
"1 just was hit by inspiration," he said

University students want Vice President George Bush and Gov. Michael Dukakis to discuss more specific issues during the second presidential debate to be held at UCLA's Pauley Pavilion tonight at 6 p.m.
"I just want them to talk about the issues, not around the issues," said Deanna Maus, a senior international relations major. "I want them to talk about the deficit and the foreign policies they will initiate."
Mike Morton, a graduate student in music, said, "More questions need to be asked. (The candidates) also need to give specific answers instead of blatant generalizations."
Many students said they want the candidates to address issues ranging from the national deficit to foreign policy.
But Mark Cox-Pursley, a graduate student in philosophy, said he doubts these topics will be addressed by the candidates who, many have said, are running campaigns based on personal attacks.
"I want them to deal with issues such as Central America and the arms negotiations, what kind of things they wil] do to re-(See Students, page 5)
Graduate school to publish guidelines on ethics issues
By Colette Maandig
Staff Writer
The Graduate School will publish guidelines in November to address the issues of ethics in the school, a task force member said Wednesday.
"The guideline is to ensure the best we can that integrity is not compromised in pursuing an academic degree," said Deborah Pal-mieri, assistant dean of the Graduate School. "The degree has to be earned in a fair and honest way."
The Task Force for Ethical Standards in Graduate Students and Faculty Relations was formed last year and comprises 12 facility members from the sciences, humanities and social sciences departments. It is headed by Dr. John Parker, associate dean of medicine.
"The issue of ethics in society is becoming more open," Palmieri said. "The standard of integrity and honesty are eroded. Ethics in the graduate school have been an underemphasized area in the past.
"Students and faculty involved with graduate research and dissertations have a very dose working relationship," she said. "The relationship is subjective and sometimes problems can arise in this relationship, so we formulated guidelines for students and faculty members' responsibilities.''
Palmieri said the guidelines will address issues including plagia-

Doheny Memorial Library will partially close at 5 p.m. next Tuesday, Oct. 18, because the library will hold its first annual Scriptor Awards dinner, a black-tie fundraiser honoring writers Helene Hanff and Hugh Whifemore.
College Library will remain open during the event, which will be held in the library Reference Room.
"We wanted to provide access to the Doheny facility without interfering with the event that is going on," said Stephan Elder, library public relations specialist. Elder said Dean Charles Ritcheson, university librarian, "wanted to strike a balance," between the event and students' needs.
"This will give more students more room to study, which is why we're keeping the College Library open," said Joyce Toscan, assistant university librarian of public services.
The black-tie fundraiser will attract such known personalities as Anne Bancroft and Mel Brooks and will generate about $50,000 to $60,000 for book acquisitions, Elder said. Seats are $150 per plate. About 250 guests are expected to attend.
The Scriptor Award will honor "the best realization of a book as film," Elder said. "It's a dual award for the book author and the
