After read Mr. LI Anshan's report, I just can not believe that an executive officer at UT could make such a "mistake". She drawn that statistics data from one call. She knew nothing about Chinese students but she organized a meeting on Jan.25, 1990 to accuse Chinese again (unfortunately, no or few people were there}. Well, she realized that she made a "mistake" but she really did not know what kind of damge has been caused. "Chinese student" has its reputation in Tiananmen Square. Now, people at UT are surprised by their bad name: "they peer at women". We do not want make matter here. What she did is more than an insult. Ok, I think that officer was too naive about us. But that is not the excuse. She said that on behalf of the University of Toronto. She did something very terrible. We need the University to apologize for this incident. On behalf of NEWS UTC, I ask our LYH, and the representitive, Mr. Li Anshan, to contact with the vice president of UT, Mr. Needland, ISC director, campus newspaper, and other Chinese student groups, to have a meeting with Ms. Nancy Adamson. We need a PUBLIC APOLOGY and other protections. Stand up, friends! Defend ourselves. Ti Wang O
