Recycling 1 to collect s By SCOTT CLINF Staff Writer As an alternative for students who plan to ditch their newspaper after getting a dose of Calvin and Hobbes, the USC Recycling Office has special recycling bins to do the job. "We realize that newspaper is the largest source of waste for stu dents, and we wanted to make something available for them to recycle it," said John Newman, the graduate assistant who oversees the daily running of the recycling shop. It takes about 17 trees to make 100 pounds of paper, according to Newman.

For the moment, the office acts as a liaison between organizations and departments on campus wanting to set up a recycling program, and the city of Columbia, which actually handles the products and supplies the bins.

The College of Nursing and the Thomas Cooper Library are both set to begin programs this semester," Newman said. tinued from page 1 So he really didn't give him a choice."

GINT professor Sharough Akhavi is a native of Iran and a nationally recognized expert who is frequently consulted for analyses about the Middle East Akhavi opposes war because he believes military action will harm the United States' long-range interests in the Middle East, and he believes war would not be contained to Iraq and Kuwait, but would spread quickly to Israel and Jordan. Addressing the effects of the war on the Middle East, Akhavi said, "Redrawing the Middle East map will not be in the best interest of the U.S." He said two other main conflicts that will be affected by an attack on Iraq are the Palestinian/Israeli crisis and the conflict of the Syrian presence in Lebanon. Hal French of the Department of Religous Studies was one of the speakers on whether war was a moral and ethical option.

Spokeswoman Lee Ann Barrett said the blood bank, which supplies blood to 11 counties, is already experiencing a shortage. Part of the reason is 20 percent of the donations come from military peothe discussion, he briefly described the religious aspects of the conflict "Religion should be a harmonizing factor in world affairs, but sometimes it serves to inflame the issues," French said. "It's hard for them (Muslims) to understand the separation of church and state. For Islam, those two are inseparable." he said. "When you combine militant nationalism with religious fanaticism, you get a virulent form of hostility." French said he was saddened by the "kick butt" mentality of some Americans, as if the war were a football game. "People are going to be dying in a few days," he said.
