By ANDREW mus

The wall between church and state
has become an important topic in
this year‘s presidential election —
and both parties are chipping away
at that wall, according to the chair-
woman of the American Civil Liber-
ties Union of Central Kentucky.

Ellie Goldman spoke last night be-
fore about 30 students and faculty
members in a speech sponsored by
Societas Pro begibus and the Stu-

Goldman. an attorney, said she
decided to speak on religion and pot-
itics because she feels there is a
need to address such questions

Pisacano teaches biology students

The human body — students can-
not help but appreciate one of God‘s
most complex creations after taking
Dr. Nicholas Pisacano's Introduc-
tion to Biology.

Pisacano. a family physician who
gave up private practice about eight
years ago. came to L'K in 1962. two
years after the College of Medicine
was first established and began tea-
ching undergraduate students about
two years later

"l teach Biology 110 for fun.“ Pi~
sacano said. “I like to teach about
health and get my students inter-
ested in the human body - the most
marvelou living thing in the world.

“If we can teach young people to
live healthily. we will all live better

and longer." be said. He said he
wishes he could teach newborns
what most adults know now, then
the babies could get many more
years of quality living, he added.

"My main goal is to make my stu-
dents appreciate the human body,"
Pisacano said ”l want my students
to leave my class wonderirg. The
human body is so complex — I want
to make sure they appreciate and
respect human life and specially
their own."

“I've really gotten a lot out of m.
Pisacano's class." said Both Am
Biederman, a marketim eophunore.
"I‘ve learned to take care of and up
preciate the human body. He hoe
really inspired me to think twin

The question that the book raises
is not that there is injustice in busi-

Janecek. who has collected the art
in the show on various trips to Rus»

Soviet attitude toward modern art is
changing. “Until recently." he said.
“standard official art in the Soviet
Union was no more advanced than
impressionism.” Even that art. Jan-
ecek observed. “reflected the policy
of Socialist Realism." a style in
which representational forms are

idealized to reflect a purely positive
aspect of Soviet life

The Soviet officals. according to
Janecek. "are becoming more tolerr
ant of abstract art because they re»
alize that it is not going to start a

and not able to relate her academic
study of philosophy to the real
world.

It is precisely because the world is
not a nice place that the values of
truth. goodness and beauty have
meaning. Screaming “foul“ because
people don't play by the rules indi-
cates the person's ignorance of the
game of life. not her intelligence.

Perhaps there is an answer to
Cunningham's problem. though. She
implies throughout the book that she
aimed to please Susan Brownmiller.
in her book Femininity. chronicles
all the artifices women have used to
please men. She groups her dis-
cussion into chapters with such titles
as "Body." "Hair." "Clothes" and
“Skin."

In each chapter she includes all
the strange things women have done
and continue to do to themselves for
the sake of bemg "feminine " One
chapter. "Ambition." applies espe»
cially t0 Cunningham's case
According to Brownmiller. ambition
is not feminine because it threatens
men, Women‘s ambitions have had
to be limited to home and children
and could never extend to seeking
high business positions

Brownmiller. of course. as a femi»
nist. disagrees with this sort of
thinking. and has written her book
to try to dispel] it. Like Cunning-
ham. however. she confuses the real
world with the world she has cre—

ated for herself because of her fail-
ure to examine the values by which
she lives her own life.

Throughout the book Brownmiller
cites her own experiences growing
up in a large. suburban. white mid-
dleclass high school as proof of
man‘s conspiracy against woman.
There are. of course. serious issues
at stake here, Injustice toward any-
one for any reason is a condemna
tion of the society that allows it. But
for every persecutor there is a vie
tim. and as transactional analysis
points out. one cannot exist without
the other.

Perhaps if Browniniller had spent
less time in high school trying to at-
tract men and more time trying to
grow up into an adult. she would
have more to say about the substan-
tive issues of sexual injustice. The
book is a delight to read. however.
though she draws largely from undo-
cumented generalizations that seem
to prove her point before she makes
it.

Brownmiller does offer a solution
to the Mary Cunningham story: If
women are going to succeed in the
real world. they are going to have to
give up enjoying the role of victim
and become adult women who can
accept themselves as flawed beings
who do not always have the right an-
swers

Senior Staff Writer

The 1514 campaigns of Presi-
dent Reagan and Democratic
challenger Walter F. Mondale
have brought to the forefront
moral and civil rights issues. in-
cluding abortion. religion and mi-
nority concerns.

Socially Concerned Students is
sponsoring two forums this week
to discuss the Reagan adminis-
tration‘s civil rights policies.

Robert Jefferson. chairman of
the Lexington-Fayette Urban
County Human Rights Commis-
sion. will speak at noon today on
"Reagan and Minorities" at 245
Student Center. At the same time
and location tomorrow. Wesley
Morgan. a board member of the
American Civil Liberties Union.
will discuss the “At‘LL’ and the
Bill of Rights."

Student group holds forums
centering on rights policies

Jefferson will discuss relations
between Reagan and minorities
"from a black perspective." He
plans to emphasize the social.
economic and political implica-
tions of the Reagan administra<
tion‘s policies. with particular
emphasis on problems which
blacks face.

"There are certain programs
that have been eliminated” under
Reagan. Jefferson said. While
high unemployment continues to
plague blacks. he said the cur-
rent administration remains in-
sensitive and the Justice Depart-
ment "does not pursue certain
areas "

Morgan. a UK professor emeri-
tus. said the discussion tomorrow
would center around the “grad
ual erosion" of the Bill of Rights.
According to Morgan. a “great
many rights are being bypassed
by the Reagan administration."

Current policies which hamper
civil rights center around abor-
tion. separation of church and
state. and government-sponsored
scth prayer. Morgan said. He
cited a proposed Constitutional
amendment to legislate school
prayer as a “clear violation of
the First Amendment."

Other problems referred to by
Morgan include the authority of
government to preview written
material. “even nonclassified
material." which places undue
restrictions on authors. especially
scientists. He also said proposed
anti-crime bills would “erode the
protection of innocent people ac-
cused of crimes.“

Both forums are part of an ong-
oing effort by SCS to spark stu-

dent interest in the Nov 6 elec-
tion. said Lois Wesly. St‘S
president.
