LXXVI, No. 103 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, FRIDAY, JANUARY 28, 1966 SEVEN CENTS SGC : Students Should Help Choose Next Pr EIGHT PAGES esident By JANE DREYFUSS "The Replacement 6f Hatcher" was the proposal passed by Stu- dent Government Council last night. In a motion submitted by Edward Robinson, '67, and Donald Resnick, '68, the statement was, made that since President Hatcher is leaving in 1967 and the selec- tion process for his successor is beginning, it is time for the stu- dent body to obtain a loud voice in the choice. The motion adopted asked that SGC present to the Regents a pro- posal for a student-faculty com- mittee which would participate in. the preliminary and final decisions regarding the new University president. Another proposal in coordina- tion with the motion passed was submitted by Robert Bodkin, '67E, and Alex Goodwin, '67. It advo- cated that the student body should have a voice in choosing the next president. It suggested that to im- plement this, SGC should request at the next Regents' meeting, Feb. 11, the following: -The presidential selection ad- visory committee constitute a 1:2 ratio of students to faculty; -That SGC be permitted to submit to the vice-president of student affairs a list of names of the proposed student participants, and -That the vice-president of student affairs in conjunction with the Regents make the final selec- tion of the students. "This is a proposal that will be considered next week," said Bod- kin. "It is being read this evening with the intention of passage the following week. This week will give us time to gain a concensus in- stead of just a vote." Goodwin, co-sponsor of the sec- ond proposal granted that the proposal passed was a "definite start in the right direction. Ob- viously, in order to convince the Regents and the University we will have to come up with a concrete proposal," he added. "This is an area where students have terest and can honestly ful in the selection of man for the job." great in- be help- the best Robinson agreed that "as a fo- cal point of the University, stu- dents should have a voting voice in the choice of their president." He underlined the voting when he added that their's should not be "solely an advisory capacity, but a voting one. "Essentially, students should be allowed to take part in the deci- sion making policy of the Univer- sity," said Steve Schwartz, '68. Gary Cunningham, '66, president of SGC, will meet with Hatcher sometime this coming week to dis- cuss the possibilities of student participation in the selection of his successor as advocated by the SGC action taken last night. Considered at the same meeting was the Viet Nam survey orig- inally proposed at last week's meeting. Citing Prof. Stokes of the Institute for Survey Research, Schwartz contended that the pro- posed survey was allotting insuf- ficient money and people and that additional funds and personnel would not be beneficial because "no one really wants to know what 300 people think anyway." Added Mickey Eisenberg, '67, 'We are not not competent to conduct this poll." The motion was defeated. As a final order of business, Ruth Bauman, '68, was officially elected as member of the council to replace Sue Ness, '68, who resigned. 4~ 1VINEY AUT 4T BUD 17i MUST BE RESIDENT: Few Scholarships Available For Out-of-State Students President By MARK LEVIN Although there are over 1000 " scholarship opportunities for en- tering in-state freshmen, only 37, or one per cent of the scholar- ships awarded, are available to out-of-state students. Scholarships for out - of - state students, as noted in a recent pub- lication of the Office of Financial Aids, are severely limited because of Michigan residency require- ments which are attached to them. No state funds are made avail- able by the University for out-of- state student scholarships. There- fore, all monies must be secured through either private endow- ments, some of which contain no What's Newat 764-1817 W iretra SGC last night granted temporary recognition, over Cinema Guild's objection, to the creation of Cinema II, a student-run organization that plans to present both new and vintage movies. It will also be an outlet for student cinematography and film festival showings. "Lilies of the Field" will be the first presentation. It will be shown Friday and Saturday nights, February 4th and 5th in Aud. A. Admission will be 50 cents. - * * * Opposition to the proposed Inter-House Assembly con- stitution seems to be increasing. An alternative IQC-Assembly merger constitution has been mailed to all of the 53 house presidents by Dave Smith, '69, IQC member and Sue Hagadorn, '68, president of Angell House. "We feel that this constitution corrects over 15 major defects and innumerable minor omissions in the current, officially proposed constitution," said Smith. Hotline The International Center will provide one-year scholarships for seniors and graduate students for an exchange program with a university in Germany. The awards include round trip travel from New York to the German university, university fees, and usual single student living expenses. . All applicants must be between 20 and 30 years of age with a strong profiency in German, but will not be limited in their field of study. Applications may be picked up from either Professor Clarence Pott, 1072 Frieze; Mr. Ivan Parker, 2011 S.A.B.; or Mr. William LaVine, International Center; and must be returned by noon Friday, Feb. 18. The scholarship committee will conduct personal interviews with applicants on Monday evening, Feb. 28. .. * K The University Towers apartment building has eliminated its heat and water problem by installing a new water-softening plant. Apartments on the third and fourth floors of the 18-story structure at S. University and S. Forest 'had been receiving in- sufficient heat and hot water for several weeks until the problem was \ solved. Speedy removal of garbage has been undertaken in order to eliminate the possibility of any health hazard resulting from the accumulation of collected garbage in the building's basement. * * * * University alumni were recently named to two new adminis- trative positions at Washtenaw Community College. David S. Pollock, of the community relations staff, was named assistant to Washtenaw's president and Lloyd H. Van Buskirk, who did grad- uate 'work in education administration was named business manager. Busy Signal The student relations board of the development council will give five University Activities Awards of $150 each instead of $1500 each as reported incorrectly yesterday. Long Distance The University has recently received two grants totalling $43,949 from the U.S. Department of Health, Education and residence requireinents, or through the recently expanded Alumni Non - Resident Scholarship Fund. Special scholarship awards are made by alumni groups, but on an irregular basis. Alumni Fund The Alumni Non-Resident Scho- larship Fund has enlarged its pro- gram and presently awards 23 scholarships. These scholarships vary greatly as to the amount of money awarded, many being of aj token nature as in the Regents- Alumni Scholarship Fund. In addi- tion, many of the corporation en- dowments which are used for+ freshman scholarships c o n t a i n stipulations as to field of concen-3 tration and intended vocation. According to I v a n Parker,1 assistant director of the office ofj financial aids, the University has1 chosen not to allocate from itsl limited amount of state funds to1 provide scholarships for deserving; out-of-state students. The Uni- versity, Parker indicated, would like to, but can not because of+ r e s i d e n t scholarship demands, have an out-of-state scholarship program, to help deserving, excep- tional, non-resident students who wish to come here. "Only with funds from private sources could this assistance be provided," Parker added.+ The University has the author- ity to allocate part of its state, funds for out-of-state scholar- ships, since state funds are for the most part not earmarked for spe- cific projects. However, the Uni- versity would have to suffer the after effects of antagonizing a large portion of the state Legis- lature by such a move. Legislative Objections As one state legislator put it,' "I don't think there would be too many representatives favorable to such an idea. There are sufficient problems findingmoney for Mich- emresidnts, to woney about t h itizens of other states. If non- Concerned Over Cut Low Appropriation Limits Expansion, Building Programs By RICHARD CHARIN University administrators offer-! ed cautious, qualified criticism of Gov, George Romney proposed budget appropriation for the Uni- versity. They seemed to agree that while the budget as proposed seemed to fall far short of the necessary! minimum, it would be best to re- serve comment until the complete breakdown of the appropriations, could be examined carefully. University President Harlan Hatcher was concerned that thel budget was not large enough to meet the growing needs of an ex- panding university. According to him, "the appropriation proposed by Governor Romney for Univer- sity operations in 1966-67 goes part way in permitting the Uni- versity to meet the demands plac- ed upon it. At the same time the recommendation is disappointing because it falls far short of meet- ing the full need." -Daily--John Pollock FOLK DANCE AT WORLD FAIR, The Philippinos' dance here is one of the events at the University Activity Center's 1966 World's Fair, held in the Michigan Union today from 7 to 12:30 and Saturday from 1 to 5.

George Romney yesterday presented a $944.9 million state budget, including a $56.8 million general funds appropriation for the University which is about $9 million less than the University requested. The University has received $51.2 million, during the present fiscal year, thus making Romney's request a $5.6 million increase over 1965-66 funds. Romney also called for $7.1 million in capital outlay for the University, which includes con- struction and renovation. This is a significant reduction from the $18.2 million requested by the Uni- versity. Largest Slice Romney's overall budget mes- sage asked for $189 million for the state's 11 colleges and uni- versities. Education appropriations of all kinds amounted to the sin- gle largest slice of the new budg- et, 52 per cent. According to Charles Orlebeck, education assistant to Gov. Rom- ney, funds for the ,new fresh- man class at the University's Flint campus were accepted as a part of the general funds request. There is some controversy as to the future of the Flint branch, which the State Board of Edu- cation has recommended to be converted to an autonomous, four- year institution . Also included in the budget mes- sage, said Orlebeck, are funds for the Center for Research on Learn- ing and Teaching. "We went along with the state board's recommen- dation," noted Orlebeck, "and granted the institution 10-15 per cent of its million dollar request to begin the structuralization of a statewide plan." The CRLT, pres- ently situated at theCUniversity, focuses on the adaptation of tech- nology to the needs of students and teachers. Press for Funds Stanford C. Ericksen, director of the CRLT, said that he "will press for a larger allocation' 'to implement the computerized statewide network of four insti- tutions which the legislative ap- propriation would establish. He complained that the $100,000 or $200,000 would not be enough to finance the "basic hardware" of computers and terminals for a state system of automated educa- tional aid. In the area of University con- struction, building projects that will be under construction were detailed.' They include funds for Medical Science II Bldg., the den- tal building, classrooms and of- f'ces, heating plant expansion, li- brary renovation, and remodeling of the East Medical Bldg. The use of funds for planning in the area of construction were not de- tailed in the message to the Leg- islature.
