Looking for a leader

Director Debi Cain has decided to leave the Sexual Assault Prevention and Awareness Center - a move that should improve the organization..
Eight months after a faction of Peer Educators staged a work stoppage, Cain is finally leaving the organization. But not because of any bitter disputes - she found a better job. However, the University community should not mourn Cain's departure. Her spotty record at the University made her a questionable leader for such a sensitive organization. In January, volunteers claimed she breached a survivor's confidentiality in front of other staff members - an action that would go against the basic principles of the group.

Into the woods

Nature lovers can now hug millions of additional trees - and their senators, too.
The U.S. House of Representatives deserves commendation for excluding a 15-year extension of logging in the Tongass National Forest in a recent bill. That move, along with a deal with a logging company, made it possible for the government to provide millions of dollars in funding to national park preservation.
