Friday, November 16, 1979 3 AAUP decries violence against Iranian students The KU chapter of the American Association for Religious Education issued a statement denouncing violent reactions from the University community in protesting the Iranian community. UK officials had released a statement Monday saying the University would protect the rights of Iranian students who expressed their views lawfully. The AAUP's statement said, "The AUAUP has the authority that violence as a form of political protest, by any person in any place, is inconsistent with the principle of equality." "Moreover, to use violence and terror as a form of political protest is to adopt the very tactics which are being protested." T. P. Srinivasan, chapter president of the AAUP, said that both the University's and AAUP's statement would help to prevent local violence. "I think the University has acted well in coming out with statements upholding the rights of all students so long as they are free to do so within accepted norms and legal bounds. However, several Iranian students were threatened anonymously by telephone last week. David Ambler, vice chairwoman for student affairs, said an Iranian student's life had been threatened. In another case, the students were told by phone not to go to class. There also was a bomb threat at Mc Collum Hall last weekend. Ambler said. Kansas ready for demonstrations but Iranian students remain calm TOPEKA, KU (AP) — The ad-venture to a contingency plan to deal with any incidents in Kansas stemming from anger over the Iranian situation, the governor's press secretary said. Basically, the plan would be the same as for any civil disturbance, said Bill Hoch. If a situation became violent, the Kansas National Guard could be called out. Carlin said calling out the Kansas National Guard would be "a last resort." "we certainly hope no situation is serious enough to warrant that evasion," he said. "We don't anticipate any violent demonstrations." Carl retenced a suggestion by a Wichita City law enforcement for a question of the Legislature called in April to allow Kansas universities any foreign student arrested for crimes committed during anti-immigration protests. So far, there have been no reported demonstrations by the approximately 700 Iranian students attending the state's six universities. However, a University of Kansas spokesman, Mansour Tahzeradze, said Iranian students are concerned about possible after-effects of the present situation between the U.S. and Iran. He said there were problems in getting jobs in this country. The legislator, Rep. Eric Yost, a Republican, told a news conference in Wichita he doesn't oppose letting foreign students, including Iranianians, attend Kansas universities. But the 24-year-old cause of trouble should be dealt with firmly. As of yesterday, Hoch said, the administration had only determined where the university was located; the largest is at the University of Kansas, which has 268 students. Another 155 are enrolled at Pittsgaver, 111 to Kansas State, 97 to Washington State, and 41 to Hays State, according to the latent figures.
