1111' i a story of one facet of the Asian rrugration and settlement, that of the Japanese who followed their pre­dece ors, the Clunese, as settle m the American We t.

The Issei, the first generatJon Japa­nese in Amenca, were products of a long- tanding CivilizatIon whose char­acteri tic were reflected in the new land. Hi torically, they were a venture­orne people who in the second half of

the 16th century had e tabli hed penna­nent settlements in the fonn of NiJuJn­machi in the Philippine, outh Viet­nam, Cambodia, and iam.

Moreover, the I sei reflected a !rong pmt of entrepreneurship and other as­

pects of American middle c1as values. Especially prominent in the I i

P yche was what m the West rrught be tenned a "Puritan work ethic," a religi­ous motivation for work as inferred from the writing of R,H. Tawney and Max Weber The Is ei could not but have been impacted by their Shmto­Confuciam t-Buddhist value orienta­tion as American coloni ts had been by the Calvinistic en e of labor. orne Japane e Buddhi ts were induced to recogmze the acred ignificance of phy ical labor and even the readiness to "torture" one elf by working hard 10

And the 18th century kokugaku or nativi t movement based on hintoi m con Ide red agncultural work especially as being ordained of the god ,

With uch a mind et, the I sel came to Amenca With a multitude of mOllva tion , found work Imtially as laboren. 10 the timber, mining, canmng, rail road, and agricultural industne , meet 109 hostilIty in too many in tances but not without counterbalanctng fnendly compas ton from other Caucasian who treated them with,dtgntty as individu­als.

Another Is el characten tIc of the re latlVely hom')geneou I sel was thelT Spirit of cooperativism often ba ed upon 'heer self-preservation in a new enVi­ronment During their independent fanrung phase ofhi tory. they were m­c1med to con ider partnership and the

Supreme Court Rules on Tenure Case of Chinese American Prof W ASHINGTO -The U. . upreme Court ruled unanimou ly Jan. 10 that universati accused of discnmination in tenure deci IOns must make the relev­ant personnel files available to federal Investi~ators .

The deci ion ems from the Rosalie Tung case, a Chinese American woman who had been denied tenure at the Uni­versity of Penn ylvania' Wharton

chool of Bu in . The complaint was filed in 1985. She has in,'e moved to the University of Wi con in where he i tenured and director of the Interna­tional Bu ines Center.

The case had been closely watched by leading in titutions and academic or­ganization which upported the univer-ity' argument that academic freedom

proVJdes a special hield again t forced disclo ure of confidential assessments used to grant tenure.

Justice Harry A. Blackrnum, who wrote the decision, dismantled the uni­versity' con titutional and policy argu­ments point by point:

(a) "We cannot accept the univer-ity' invitation to create a new

privilege against the disclo ure of peer review material ." (He referred to Title vn of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which Congres extended to 1972 to

Thi year' ho tithe Chicago Japa­nese American Council, the umbrella organization for the Japanese American community.

WBBM-TV News anchor/reporter Adele Arakawa and WUT-FM radio personality and as i tan! program direc­tor Gene Honda will serve as co-emcees at the Lunar ew Y ear (Year 4688) celebration , the ingle largest organized event in Clucago' A~ian American community, which numbers about 425,000.

(b) "Indeed. if there is a . rooking gun' to be found that demon tJat di ­crimination In tenure deci ion , IIi likely to be rucked away in peer revie\\ fi] ." (Blackrnum held it often necessary for the Equal Employment Opportunity Commi ion to gain acces to peer view material in order to carry out its function under the Civil Rights Act.)

Tung claimed the department chair had sexually harassed her and after he rebuffed him ubmitted a negative letter to the university committee ill charge of tenure deci ion . She said the person­nel committee' alleged ju tification for denying tenure-that the Wharton school was not interested in "China-re­lated research"-was " imply their way of aying they do not want a Chinese American, Oriental woman in their chool."

Tung alleged she was at least as well qualified as five male colleagues who had recently received tenure. The com­mi ion began its investigation, asked the university for the confidential evalu­ation ofal] five men and Tung' . When the university refused, the EEOC i ued a ubpoena.

Both the federal di trict and appellate courts ordered the uruversity to comply with the ubpoena. The university ap­pealed to the upreme court in 19 8.

10 a follow-up New York Times tory, educators were a ked, "Will profe ors be les blunt about their colleagu ?"

'Thi will mean ome chang in the way faculty members and outside re­ferees do bu ines ," responded Da e Merkovitz of the American Council of Educatlon, representmg ome 1,500 colleges and universities. "It may in­hibit the willingne of ome people to be completely frank or even participate in the process if they can ' t be ured of confidentiality."

In eattle, University of Washington vice provost teven 01 wang for academic affairs. believed that the fac­Ulty will till continue to provide open and honest evaluation of candidate for tenure.

in Berkeley, University of Califor­rua's deputy general coun el Gary Mor­ri on aid many tenure deci ion are explo Ive "because top research univer-ities are making very fine di tinc­

tion , .. The qu tion i whether one i excellent enough for a place like Ber­keley, which only hire the top 'cholars ill the world. Everyone who i denied tenure therefore feels a gnevance."

DEPT OF CHEMISTRY ASST/ASSOC PROFESSOR

The Dept of Chemistry of The City College of New York invites applications for an appointment beginning September 1990. Preference will be given to candidates whose research interest IS compatible with one of the research areas being conducted in the Center for Analysis of Structures and Interfaces, a Re­search Center of Excellence, in the Division of Science and the School of Engineering: The research conducted in the Center involves (a) Sensitized processes at semiconductor surfaces using laser scattering techniques; (b) ultrafast nonlinear spectroscopy and characterization of materials for opto­electronic devices and systems; (c) experimental studies of free and supported metal clusters. The candidate must demonstrate strong promise of a creatIVe and productive career in scientific research and teaching. Minimum qualifcations include a Ph.D. in chemistry with post­doctoral experience. The successful applicant will be expected to teach at both the undergraduate and graduate level and maintain an independent, active research program. The open­ing is at the assistant/associate professor levels, however an applicant with sufficiently outstanding credentials will be con­SIdered for a full-professorial appointment. Academic year salary $34,125-$66,310 based on the current faculty contract. Applicants should send a letter of application, which includes a statement of present and future research plans, a detailed resume, and arrange for three letters of refer­ences to be forwarded by March 15, 1990, to Professor Daniel L. Akins, Center Director, CASI, Department of Chemistry,
