Likins unshaken by Duke labor code
sit-in
UA President Peter Likins said yesterday he plans to
sign a multi-university labor code despite a recent
protest by Duke University students that inspired
their administrators to accept the agreement on a
trial basis.
The Duke officials' decision serves as a compromise with the Students Against
Sweatshops organization, which has repeatedly called for full disclosure of
factory locations to pin-point alleged human rights violations.

Clash of the titans
It's a common clichÚeacute; in sports to say a team is
peaking at just the right time.
The logic goes if a team starts peaking, or playing
really well in layman's terms, just before the NCAA
Tournament, then the team has a better chance of
making a run to the title.
That clichÚeacute; doesn't hold in the Pac-10.
With still 10 games left in the regular season starting with tonight's game at
Washington, the No. 10-ranked UA men's basketball team (15-3 overall, 7-2
Pac-10) couldn't wait until the end of the season to get things straight.

Editorial: Students missing big picture
on tuition
In a rare demonstration of political activism, the Arizona Students Association,
our student-funded, student lobbying group, has put its atrophied muscles behind
a proposal to limit student tuition hikes. Tired of being ignored by the Arizona
Board of Regents, these young politicos have appealed to their bosses, the state
legislature, for tuition relief.
