about their policies.
"It goes without saying that
we're concerned," said Jenkins.
He said that the development of
an AIDS policy is "something
that we need to do. So far there
have teen no reported cases
among the students, feculty, or
staff but it's probably just a
matter of time." He said he anticipated the policy to be formu- .
lated by the end of this
semester.
Jenkins said the education of
Stetson's students, faculty, and
staff is the primasy goal of the
task forefe. "We are going to
embark on a comprehensive
educational program on campus," the dean said.
He said that the educational
program will include programs
among the college's residence
.halls, faculty and staff, and
fraternities and sororities. "We
plan later In the semester a
campus-wide seminar like the
rap® seminar we just had to
educate about AIDS," Jenkins
said.
Ttbf dean said that few of the
other colleges contacted about
AIDS policies have formulated
them yet. He said that the task
force has contacted "good,

schools" like Vanderbiit, PSr-
and Loyola. "Most <«K8t

indMdtial review of each ease.
He said he didn't know yet what
Stetson's policy would be, but
thought it would be modeled
after these policies, "Protoabty

Dean Perkins emphasised
that in the development of the
school's policy, "the protection
of students, faculty, and staff!®
paramount, but we will also
have to protect individual

Perktos raid the difficult part
to formulating an AIDS policy
would be to drawing the line
between the rights of the community and of the Individual.
"When do you accomodate,
when do you ask people to
