I got it working...How or why? I'm not sure, but it's working :)

I created another collection with defaults and imported my items into 
that collection (i.e., change all the instances of VCU users in the 
table below to anonymous)
then, I went back and set gave all read auths to my VCU users group on 
the collection
then, I went into the authorization tool and cleared all policies.

Somehow that worked...I have no idea how this is working (as logically 
this makes absolutely no sense to me - I should have been able to import 
using the permissions below, no?)...

thanks,
Susan
