IN BRIEF: UA to hold open meeting

Rogers said he hopes to have many outreach sessions -- where University community members can speak at UA meetings -- during his term. Members of the other branches of student government will also attend the meeting, as part of an attempt to bring the UA and those branches closer together, Rogers said. He added that he expects the issue of tenure to be addressed by the UA and the Student Committee on Undergraduate Education. During the meeting, the UA will also elect its budget committee -- made up of two UA members and the UA treasurer, College freshman Steve Schorr, a Daily Pennsylvanian sports writer. In addition, the UA will select its four representatives to the Ivy Council, a government body made up of students from each of the eight Ivy League schools. The meeting will take place tonight at 9 p.m. in the back room of Chats. -- Randi Feigenbaum Chinese Cultural Night to be held The Chinese Cultural Association will hold their annual Chinese Cultural Night today at 8 p.m. in the Annenberg Center's Harold Prince Theatre. The evening will feature several Chinese cultural traditions including a yo-yo demonstration, Mandarin and Cantonese musical performances, traditional dancing -- such as the Feather Fan Dance -- and a costume show. -- Kara Blond DePaul protesters end sit-in Black student protesters vacated the offices of the Weekly DePaulia Saturday evening, ending a 10-day sit-in. A statement issued by the Coalition for Concerned Black Students, the group which organized the protest, said yesterday that DePaul University officials agreed to meet all of their demands except for three. And two of these unmet demands can be satisfied through DePaul's internal judicial process. DePaul administrators have agreed to give the students an office to house oversight committees that will implement its demands, the statement said. But neither protesters nor DePaul administrators would comment on which of the remaining 17 demands were met. The Weekly DePaulia will resume printing this week, DePaul officials told the Associated Press. The student coalition began the sit-in on April 5 in response to a February article containing a quote from a police report that students said perpetuated negative racial stereotypes. In quoting a police report, the article referred to male African Americans as "M-Bs." On Friday, protesters refused to end the sit-in -- although administrators offered to increase recruitment of minority faculty and students, as the protesters had demanded. Coalition spokesperson Eric Wright said Friday that the group wanted an apology from the Weekly DePaulia and demanded that the editor-in-chief be fired. DePaul University representatives were unavailable for comment yesterday. -- Andrea Ahles
