Another year to add to the appreciation we must show for your life’s work.
We are honored everyday by the actions of this man and his generation that were able to make a change within the U.S.A.. We thank you for the efforts, the patience, the fortitude, and the contempt you showed when the majority refused to listen and budge for the minority. May we all continue to lead by example and not hide behind excuses and other strong-willed individuals to take the brunt of the blows in our fight for equality. Let us make better and smarter decisions that are bigger than ourselves. Let us stand up for what is right. Stand up for what is true. And stand up for your rights to live free from tyranny, various forms of enslavement, fear mongering, psychological coersion, indifference and abuse.
Hate keeps us apart. We must all open up our hearts to accept the differences we all have in this world and respect one another. .
May we all atleast take the time out today to learn the idealism set in motion by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

FOR AN ACCOUNTABLE AND PROACTIVE GSCASH .
Fnends, .
This year sees another election for the posts of student representatives to the Gender Sensitization Committee against SexualHarassment. The formation of GSCASH was a result of a persistent struggle of the JNU community for a secure and ge~der.
sensitive campus. .
The constitution of GSCASH embodies a progressive outlook on gender issues. The struggle for the formation of GSCASH and theconstitution of the body carried with it the perspective that sexual harassment is not simply the deviant behaviour of a singleindividual. Instead it must be located in the reality of unequal gender relations. It restricts the freedom of individuals and does notallow them to develop to their full potential. Hence the struggle to curb sexual 'harassment and to ensure that offences arefirmly dealt with is a part of a struggle for gender equality. .
As somebody who has actively participated in the process of the formation of GSCASH and in the subsequent struggle for an.
autonomous and strong GSCASH it was with dismay that I observed the functioning of the student representatives in the last.
committee. One of the representative made a mockery of the trust reposed in her by the students by not attending a single meetingor taking part in any of the activities. In fact she left the campus soon after the elections. The other student representative failed to.
ensure a responsive functioning. Through the year there has not been any action taken on any of the major cases. The trauma.
for one who faces harassment only begins with the act. The subsequent period of time, the process of reporting, inquiry is usuallymarked by a tremendous pressure on the victim. The failure of the last GSCASH to ensure time bound inquiries and to takeaction against the perpetrator has resulted in a situation where many of the cases were simply withdrawn. .
But most importantly GSCASH has failed in its task of sensitizalion. The understanding inherent in GSCASH is that the task of.
sensitization is as important as that of remedial action in cases of sexual harassment. The fight against sexual harassment does notbegin or end simply with its redressal. Sensitization, debates on gender are important to evolving a proper and informedunderstanding. Only a change in the prevalent stereotypes or straitjacketed social roles of women and men would effectivelyprevent sexual harassment. And it Is in this area of sensitization that failure of the last committee lay. .
One reflection of this has been in the recent trend on campus of responding to incidents of harassment through violence. Prior to.
the information of GSCASH the response to an incident of harassment used to be through the mobilization of the students,demanding action from the administration. This has changed in to mob violence. The response to harassment through violence isnot only condemnable, but also excludes women from the sphere of action. This too I would lay at the door of the last committee,.
for its failure to create a more 'gender sensititive campus, where men and women both have equal space. .
A lot of the debate during the GSCASH elections last year united on 'male victimisation'.This last year has proved these fears to be.
unfounded -there has not been a single case filed with GSCASH with the aim of victimising men or settling scores. The task ofGSCASH is not to threaten one section or to created conflicting situations. On the contrary, it aims at destroying the unequal powersituation the two genders. .
Gender is an issue with a politics of its own. The struggle for ending oppression and discrimination on the grou~ds of gender mustbe fought as a part of a larger struggle against other inequalities that operate in our society-exploitation on the basis of class, caste ,religion, region etc. These struggle must be waged democratically. The GSCASH therefore is both an important achievement aswell as an instrument to carry on our fight for gender equality. .
What is needed today is a GSCASH which Is responsive to the students, provides a community support system tothose who face harassment, and is accountable to the JNU community..
What it needs is to activate a team of volunteers who will be a part of this community support system. Help those who faceharassment and be available in any emergency and who will take forward the task of sensitisation..
What is needed is a Gender Sensitisation committee, which will work among students through interactive workshop, skits anddiscussions. Not just a couple of seminars with a few big names..
What the GSCASH needs is a panel of doctors, lawyers, counsellors to equip it to deal with all possible kinds of situations..
And it needs to undertake some programme to sensitise the security on campus on how to deal with an incident ofharassment and such situation. .
What we need are student representatives who are sensitive to gender issues and accountable to the universitycommunity! ' .

Grrrrr. I induldged in too much beer/wine this weekend, and despite lots of running, these calories took their toll. PMS could have something to do with it too.
