Reduced State Funds
Undercut 'U' Wage Policies
By MARK LEVIN
Improvements in faculty and
salary wage programs have been
seriously undermined because' of
legislative budget" trimming, Uni-
versity administrators concede.
"We can't stand another year
like this," explains Vice-President
for Academic Affairs Allan F.
Smith. "However, I don't think

maintained throughout the 17
schools and colleges."a

Romney' s Budget
U' Economist Calculates Excess
Of $50 Million in State Revenues I
By DAN SHARE
Sen. Sander Levin (D-Berkeley) said yesterday Michigan's revenue
surplus will be closer to $50 million than the $5 million predicted
by Gov. George Romney.
Levin urged that Romney request appropriations for schools and
slum rehabilitation programs in next month's special session of the
Legislature.
Levin bases his expectation on a study done by Prof. Harvey
Brazer of the economics department.
Brazer said the discrepancy between his figures and Romney's
comes from the fact that the Governor's predictions are based on'

The Woodrow Wilson Fellowship
Foundation will drastically reduce
its financial aid to graduate stu-
dents interested in college teach-
ing because of a $4.3 million-a-
year slash in donations from the
Ford Foundation, Wilson Founda-
tion president Hugh Paylor an-
nounced Wednesday.
The Ford Foundation under-
writes the Wilson Foundation pro-
gram of $3,000 fellowships for
graduate students in the human-
ities and social sciences.

dation program for "reform" of
doctoral education .in 10 graduate
schools including the University's

the Ford Foundation told of its
proposed cutbacks in Wilson Foun-
dation aid.
The Ford Foundation, which has
given $27.5 million to the Wilson
Foundation in the last five years,
has said it will give only $2.4 mil-
lion during the next. two years.
In the past, the Ford Foundation
has given $5.5 million a year.
The cutback leaves the. Wilson

The Wilson Foundation will con-
tinue to give 200 "dissertation"
grants to students seeking to com-
plete graduate school in four years.
Students of the schools in the new
Ford Foundation program will be
ineligible for dissertation fellow-
ships.
The new Ford Foundation pro-
gram will support students through
four years of doctoral study and
"apprentice teaching." A study
