Jonathan Santos, 22, son of Wellness Outreach Center coordinator Doris Kent, Thursday outside the Performing Arts Center. Western staff member's son is No. 1,096 to die in Iraq By Laura McVicker The Western Front Friends and students gathered Thursday to honor Bellingham native and Sehome High School graduate Army Cpl. Jonathan Santos, 22, who died in action in Iraq on Oct. 15. Santos' mother, Doris Kent, is Western's Wellness Outreach Center coordinator. Many of those who attended had never met Santos. "So many people care about (Kent) and didn't even know Jonathan," said Brian Pahl, coordinator of the men's violence protection project and a coworker and friend of Kent's. "But knowing her and just hearing stories that she would tell them, they feel personally affected by ... his loss." The vigil took place in front of the Performing Arts Center at 5 p.m. Thursday. Kent's co-workers and students involved in the lifestyle advisor program, which Kent advises along with others, were among the many who attended. Mourners lit candles and stood in silent memorial of Santos. Several spoke on behalf of Kent and the life of her son. "Doris needs support right now," Western senior and lifestyle advisor Rebecca Brummel said to the crowd. "And when all is said and done, she's still going to need that support. And SEE Soldier, PAGE 4 Theatre department suspends professor for unnamed reasons ByElanaBean The Western Front Western's theatre arts department suspended associate professor Perry Mills with pay Tuesday for undisclosed reasons. Mills, a well-known professor on campus, teaches several cinema and theater classes. Department chair and professor Mark Kuntz said he would not reveal the reasons for Mills' suspension because the matter concerns department personnel. "This is to honor and protect Perry's privacy," Kuntz said. Mills tells a much different story. "I was suspended and told to leave the campus because the department chair got a report of a student seeing (me) with a pocketknife," he said. University Police Chief Jim Shaw said Mills is unable to return to campus without UP deciding whether he needs a police escort, which he said is standard protocol for any instructor on paid suspension. "I don't know how they have the power to ban me from campus," Mills said. Mills said he asked the police if the pocketknife was considered a weapon. He said the police said the pocketknife was OK to have on campus. University Police Cpl. Josef Bailey said that any knife, however, can be considered a deadly weapon, and the only people authorized to carry weapons on public school grounds are police. Shaw said Kuntz's administrative assistant, Kay Reddell, requested a civil standby Oct. 20 at the Performing Arts Center. A civil standby ensures that when an officer serves papers, the interaction goes smoothly. An officer acted as a witness while Kuntz gave the letter to Mills, Shaw said. Mills said he is most upset about the effect his suspension will have on his students. He said the quarter is ruined for his students, many of whom need his guidance in upper-division classes.

Christian peacemakers tell students about Iraq By Marissa Harshman The Western Front Western students and community members got a glimpse into the atmosphere of wartime Iraq Wednesday without being exposed to the physical dangers of war. Christian Peacemaker Team members Ryan and Christie Schmid spoke about their trip to Iraq at the Fairhaven College Auditorium as part of Fairhaven College's World Issues Forum. From mid-February to March, the Schmids traveled through Iraq, interacting with villagers, victims of raids, human-rights organizers and U.S. soldiers. "We got to see the beauty and strong relationships people had with each other," Christie Schmid said. The Schmids traveled in a group of eight short-term and eight long-term Christian Peacemaker Team members. The long-term members will stay in Iraq for six months, return home for a month and then travel to other areas the teams are working with, including Colombia and Palestine. Christian Peacemaker Teams initiated long-term presence in Iraq in October 2002 before the war began, according to the Christian Peacemaker Teams' Web site.
