"We made a real effort to get a top-quality editor because Bremner was so good," Frederickson said. "I think we hired the best."
refiring professor John Bremner.
Karen Boring, Lawrence graduate student, remembered that Mr. Polk once said he never tried to predict how his students would do in their careers because he thought he always was wrong.
"He was really a professor who had the ability to get work out of students — not because they had to do it — but because they wanted to," she said. "You didn't want to do less than your best for him."
She said some students were afraid of him because they knew he expected something from them. But when they decided to learn the material he was teaching, the fear disappeared.
"You couldn't fool him," Boring said. "He was really critical but in a way to improve a journalist's thinking."
Frederickson said Mr. Polk was one of the best editing teachers in the country.
"He was a high class person in every way," he said. "His language was perfect. He commanded respect."
Bill would reverse decisions by high court on civil rights
WASHINGTON — Lawmakers of both parties joined by the head of the Episcopal Church and Coretta Scott King yesterday unveiled civil rights legislation designed to reverse recent Supreme Court rulings and help minorities and women fight job bias.
and narrowed the scope of anti-bias laws.
"Recent decisions of the court have re-opened old wounds suffered in battles fought long ago," King told a news conference at which supporters called the measure the major civil rights bill now before Congress.
The Bush administration has argued that there is no urgent need to overturn the decisions, saying it would have been the object of the rulings on cases in court.
Hearings on the bill are set to begin in both the House and the Senate within days. Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass., said approval at the committee level might be possible within three months.
The bill launches a counterattack by congressional liberals and civil rights activists against a series of Supreme Court rulings last year. A newly solidified conservative court majority limited affirmative action
But the Justice Department said yesterday that it would propose its own legislation to undo the effect of the court's decisions targeted in the proposed bill.
Deputy Attorney General Donald B. Ayer said the administration's bills would restore the ability of
plaintiffs to sue about intentional racial discrimination.
"The fabric of justice has been torn," he said.
Kennedy said that last year the Supreme Court "issued a series of rulings that mark an abrupt and unfortunate departure from its historic vigilance in protecting civil rights."
The Rev. Edmund L. Browning, presiding bishop of the Episcopal Church, told the news conference that last year that "our nation's highest court — heirs of a legacy of doing justice — turned their back on our nation's historical precendants and the important lessons of our civil rights history and did grave and severe damage."
Governors point to federal lands for environmental law violations
The Associated Press
The governors said that U.S. environmental laws often were ignored in cases where the states were cut off from enforcement.
WASHINGTON — U.S. governors pressed Congress and President Bush yesterday to speed the pollution cleanup of military bases, weapons plants and other federal lands.
"If you make a mess, you clean it up. We're saying that goes for the federal government as well as private citizens," Idaho Gov. Cecil Andrus said in a Capitol news conference on behalf of the National Governors Association. Senate Maturity Leader George
Mitchell, D-Maine, said states needed clearer authority to assess fees and penalties against federal government facilities where pollution laws were violated.
"In Congress we establish national environmental policy. Surely one of the goals of that policy is to assure that facilities owned by the federal government avoid contamination of our environment," Mitchell said.
Andrus, co-chairman of the task force that developed the governors' report, said that although Bush understood the problem, he had proposed too little money for the federal cleanup effort.
The governors' report said the
extent of pollution on federal property, ranging from military bases and weapons plants run by the Energy Department to vast lands controlled by the Interior Department, was so broad that its full scope remained undefined.
Various government estimates on the cost of cleaning up the nuclear weapons plants alone have been estimated at $100 billion.
The governors called for an expanded program that would finish the task during the next 30 years.
Meanwhile, the governors said the EPA should be set free to pursue both federal and private polluters through civil lawsuits and enforcement actions.
