Prof. ,Thomas Dodd of EMU's education school and president of the university's chapter of the Michigan Associa- tion for Higher Education said the group "is actively seeking an election through the State Labor Mediation Board to as- sure faculty members collective negotiation rights." "The faculty would begin negotiations by considering working conditions," Dodd explained, "but discussions could * hopefully expand to include questions of academic freedom teaching comprehensive patient care to bring the students into contact with more and varied problems; - Development of civic and so- cial responsibility through studies of the liberal arts and other hu- manities; - Integration of basic and clinical sciences, rather thanse- parating them into upper and lower divisions; - New stress on individualized learning withteaching teams con- sisting of subject matter specialist, an educator, an audio visual spec- alist, a graphics specialist and computer programmer providing special assistance in fields in which a student is deficient; Allocation of faculty instruc- tional time on the basis of class- room needs rather than conven- tional time blocks.j Moves for a change started in January, 1963, but the Dental School was not actively engaged until January 1965. Doerr said the five year time lapse arose from attempts to use "the most democratic" format to bring about academic reform. The first two years were dedi- cated to an evaluation of the old curriculum. Questionnaires were distributed to faculty, students in the four classes, and alumni mem- bers from the classes of '53, '56, '59, and '62. Students comprised and chaired the subcommittees which presented their suggestionsj to the Curriculum Committee. The most significant change will be in scheduling and selecting of subjects. The basic, applied, and clinical sciences will be integrat- ed, instead of sectioning off the first two years 'to basic sciences and the last two to the clinical sciences. The crhznooi p ne mnprxwil rcommendations Contend use violates :discrimination bylaw By LESLIE WAYNE The Regents yesterday declared the further use of binding and required recommendations by sororities to be in viola- tion of University Bylaw 2.14 which forbids discrimination in student organizations. . The Regent's motion, in effect, makes Panhellenic As- sociation's resolution prohibiting use of these recommenda- tions official University policy. As official policy, all national chapters must recognize the Panhel resolution as binding. Without this University sanc- ;,. tion, implementation of the resolution would be left to the discretion of the national chapter. "The Regents' action can only help all those sororities that don't recognize ethe authority of Panhel to establish regulations," said Ellen Heyboer, president of Panhel. Any chapters not complying with the ruling will not be permitted to rush this January. Rushing privi- leges are to be restored upon com- pliance with the conditions of Panhel's resolution. At yesterday's meeting, Regent Frederick Matthaei, Jr. questioned whether eliminating recommenda- x tions was the correct way to elim- inate discriminatory practices. "I don't want to tell local sor- norties that national chapters can- fnot have any say," he said. "We -Daily-Eric Pergeau: Regents discuss Panhel resolution " S .J F. State ma ire-open on Tuesday SAN FRANCISCO (P) -- Presi- dent Robert D. Smith yesterday set Tuesday as the target date for resuming classes at strife-torn San Francisco State College, but said, "We don't want to reopen with a massive police force on campus." Smith closed the 18,000-student college following a clash Wednes- day in which striking students threw rocks and bottles at police. The incident climaxed a week of violence and vandalism led by the Black Students Union. Smith told some 700 of the 1,300 faculty members that they must decide whether the college can be run as an education institution or must be run "with clubs." He acknowledged that he could not be sure about reopening un- til after a special meeting of the' State College Board of Trustees in Los Angeles Monday. The Black Students Union strike began Nov. 6 after the sus- pension of Black Panther George Murray, 23, a graduate student and part-time English instructor of special minority students. Glenn S. Dumke, chancellor of the 19-college state system, or- dered the suspension pending in- vestigation after Murray urged Negroes to bring guns to school and to "chop off" President Smith's head if he did not accede to an assortment of Negro de- mands. At the faculty meeting yester- day, Dr. S. I. Hayakawa, noted se- manticist and a faculty member for 14 years, urged reopening of classes even if it had to be with police aid. "We must permit no one to disrupt or dismiss our class- es," he said. and the university's decision- making processes." "This is a pioneer step for the organization as there are no four- year state supported institutions in the nation presently bargaining with faculty," Dodd said. Although faculty groups at Western Michigan University and Northern Michigan University have thought about seeking col- lective bargaining rights, D o d d feels Eastern's efforts display "more organization than anywhere else in the nation." Despite the establishment na- tionally of several "quasi-unions," Dean William Hays of the liter- ary college says the establishment of a faculty union here, or at any "big, rather prestigious univer- sity," is unlikely. "Professors are in such demand that they are almost in a union," explained Hays. Faculty members are practically able to set their own terms," he added. However, professor Scott W. Street, also of EMU's education school, and a backer of the move for bargaining rights, feels EMU's "merit pay plan" prevents faculty involvement in bargaining for wages. The pay plan allows the univer- sity president and EMU's Faculty Council to determine wages on the basis of faculty merit. Scott wants faculty to become involved in defining teaching merit. However, he said many faculty members feel it is "beneath the dignity of a college professor" to unionize. To discern faculty opinion on the matter, Dodd said a faculty "opinionaire" has been distribut- ed by the organization. The survey is polling views on bargaining, matters of academic freedom and involvement of the university com- munity in decision making. "We feel three groups on cam- pus (faculty, students and admin- istrators) should be able to sit down and bargain on any and all issues," Scott said.

However, Regent Lawrence Lin- demer countered that "Panhel has indeed ascertained that letters off recommendation can be mechan- isms for discrimination." The motion was termed a "re- iteration of existing legislation"by Regent Otis Smith. SORORITY OPTIONS Under terms of the Panhel resolution, a sorority has three op- tions: - Sign the Panhel resolution stating they do not use binding or" required recommendations in the membership selection. - Submit to SGC or to the Vice President for Student Affairs a copy of their national membership policy showing their local chapter does not utilize a system of bind- ing or required recommendations. - Continue to accept the re- commendations as long as the sor- ority obtains a waiver blocking their use. All recommendations re- ceived by the sorority must be kept on file with Panhel as evi- dence in case discrimination is charged. The third option is valid untilj ah byaw in pon vtin sin a sorority can amend their na- the Panhel resolution. The Regental action culminates over ten years of efforts to elim- inate discrimination in sororities and fraternities. JURISDICTION In 1958, following a refusal by the Regents to suspend Sigma Kappa sorority for maintaining a. discriminatory membership pol- icy, it became evident that soror- ities and fraternities might be out- side of the University's jurisdic- tion. A year later, the Regents ac- cepted SGC's recommendations that fraternities and sororities should be recognized as student organizations and thus subject to all University policy - including the newly passed Bylaw 2.14. However, it wasn't until 1965, when Panhel began to demand See REGENTS, Page 2 71 i Ellen Heyboer Approve tenure for T SR staff By PHILIP BLOCK The Regents yesterday unani- mously approved a resolution giving tenure privileges to senior staff members of the Institute for Social Research (ISR). The action is intended to im- prove the recruiting of new staff members for the institute, and to clarify the "faculty perogatives" open to the senior staff. University President Robben W. Fleming said the need for tenure provisions in this case was "much more symbolic than real." He said the tenure arrangemept was psy- chologically" necessary to assure the senior staff members that they were on the same level as other professorial faculty mem- bers. The new tenure provisions ap- plicable to senior staff members of the ISR include: -Program Directors of the ISR not holding tenure professorial appointments in any other Uni- versity department may be granted appointments greater than one year or for an indefinite period. Program Directors, staff members who plan and direct the individual research projects of the ISR, were previously limited to renewable one year appointments. -The Program Directors are now covered under Regents Bylaw 5.10 which limits the reasons for dismissal, demotion or terminal appointment of a saff member. --In the event of cessation of funds from the, special sources which support the salaries of ISR senior staff members, the unen- cumbered funds of the institute will be used for salaries until they are exhausted.

However, the amounts consumers save will remain high," he said, because of "hesi- tancy and the postponement of some discretionary expendi- tures." Katona said surveys of con- sumer attitudes yield insights concerning economic activity in relation to future world de- velopments. If there is progress toward peace in Vietnam, for example, Katona said consumers accustomed to it although aban- donment of the tax would have a "stimulating" effect on con- sumer demand. Similarly, Katona said inter- est rates which were "substan- tially reduced" would stimulate a willingness to buy. He invalidated the notion that American consumers will be "saturated."
