According to a phamphlet issued by the Unification Church, the Unification Principle adheres to "finding a reconciliation between -the seemingly contradictory world views of idealism and materialism, religion and science." Lee Jacobson, director of the Unification Church at 1919 Gadsden Street, headquarters of CARP, said in response to the soliciting violation, "I have no knowledge of that." He said it may have been members of the Unification Church "witnessing," an expression used when members talk to students.

Sara Sickles, a Unification Church representative, said the speaKers at tne April meetings in the Russell House included Kevin Groeger, a past president of CARP and former USC student.
