'New Figures Outline 'Desired', Increases Numbers Indicate Speculative Goals For Coping with Growth Pressures By H. NEIL BERKSON The University is making the first tentative steps toward long-range "desirable enrollment" planning. The first set of figures, highly speculative in nature, pro- jects that the University's population may reach 36,000 by 1968 and 47,500 by 1975. Enrollment for the fall semester of this year stands at 27,000. The projected "desirable" figures have been compiled by the Office of Academic Affairs, working through the deans of the various schools and colleges. The Daily received these pro- j ections from a source outside the OAA. Vice-President for. Academic Affairs Roger W. Heyns, dis- agreeing with The Daily's decision to publish the figures at ALLISON GREEN" ... irresponsibility PERSONNEL: SGC Asks Diseussion With OSA By MARY LOU BUTCHER Student Government Council last right voted to request con- sultation on appointments to the' Office of Student Affairs and also decided to withdraw its rep- resentation from the OSA Advis- ory Committee. A motion submitted by Ronald Wilton, '64, requests Vice-President for Student Affairs James A. Lewis "to issue a public statement to the effect that SGC shall be con- sulted on all appointments and personnel additions to the OSA" above the secretarial and clerical level. The motion stipulates that such consultation shall include: "meet- ings with SGC to discuss possible appointments; receiving and, ser- iously considering SGC recom- mendations on filling the posi- tion(s); a discussion meeting be- tween SGC and/or appropriate of- ficers of other organizations with which this person would be work- ing, and the potential new mem- ber of the OSA staff." Faculty Senate Privilege Consultation on such personnel additions is held with the Student Relations Committee of the Fac- ulty Senate, Wilton pointed 'out. He noted that SGC should be allowed the same privilege "since it is students who will be affect- ed" by the appointments of new members to the OSA staff. The motion to withdraw repre- sentation from the OSA Advisory Committee, also proposed by Wil- ton, was based upon the fact the committee "held its first meeting last February and has not been convened since." OSA Revamping Originally set up in connection with the reorganization of the OSA, the committee's function was "to advise the vice-president or student affairs as to student and faculty opinion on OSA pol- icy." Council had previously re- examined its membership on the committee last spring and at that time decided to retain its repre- sentation until October, hoping that another meeting would be held. In other action Council endors- ed a motion submitted by Elaine Resmer, '64, to recommend to the Office of University Relations "that one U-M 63' be held spe- Detroit) said yesterday. Early Ending Senate GOP floor leader Wil- liam G. Milliken (R-Traverse City) said he could not see the session "going beyond this week." However, House action can only come today if the chamber votes by two-thirds majority to suspend the normal five day waiting period between bills reported out of com- mittee and general orders debate. The House Taxation Committee set the stage for the crucial votes by reporting the income tax bill with a key "tie-in" amendment to, other parts of Romney's program. The bill was sent to the House Ways and Means Committee, as it included an appropriation author- ization, and was returned to the floor in five minutes. Bill Released The taxation committee, which had been holding up the bill, re- leased it after the Republican caucus approved the move, 34-21. Romney appeared' at the caucus and made what seemed to be a final plea for his program. Two hours of heated debate followed his presentation., Rep. Gilbert E. Bursley (R-Ann Arbor), a member of the taxation committee, and a group of about a dozen dissident Republicans that held caucus action on the income tax bill explained that action was delayed until today so that the bill and its 29 amendments could be printed, easing floor debate. One Item One included the "tie-in" amend- ment suggested by Romney mak- ing the income tax ineffective until other bills in the program were passed. House Speaker Allison Green (R-Kingston) noted that "it would be irresponsible to pass only certain parts of the program." The Senate met briefly and ad- journed yesterday, again frustrat- ing $londy's attempt to pass sales tax exemptions on food and pre- scription drugs. Senate Majority Leader Stanley G. Thayer (R-Ann Arbor) explain- ed that the Republicans in their caucus had decided to wait for House action. I By LAURENCE KIRSHBAUM When the state supported colleges and universities are competing for appropriations next year, the University may find it has a financial friend. He is Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Frank D. Beadle (R-St. Clair), who does not believe that appropriations should be dished out to univer- sities solely on a head-count basis. The possibility of using a uni- versity's cost-per-student as a basic formula for giving appro- priations has been mentioned more frequently by legislators in the last few months, Beadle admits. University officials have expressed concern over this trend in view of the fact that the University receives over $500 per-student more than the state average. Other Aspects But Beadle stands firm in the belief that a straight cost-per- student figure "fails to weigh properly the other considera- tions that are important." These other considerations specifically include the higher costs necessary to educate up- per level students, Beadle ex- plains. "It costs more to edu- cate seniors than freshmen," while "graduate education re- quires the highest appropriation of all." Although unwilling to commit himself exactly on what should be the formula for determining appropriation, Beadle notes his "regret that a cost per credit hour study was not completed." He is referring to a study comparing the cost per credit hour of three universities - versity officials as "a more sophisticated measurement of the university's cost than the strict per-student figure." A study included in the Uni- versity appropriation request shlows that the University teaches over 26 per cent of the total credit hours taught by the 10 state supported schools. But, more significantly, Uni- versity officials explain, it re- veals that the University teach- es 48 per cent of~ the graduate credit hours (including profes- sional school education) and 26 per cent of the junior-senior credit hours-to lead the 10 sgate supported schools in these' departments also. Low Appropriation Although he will be weighing these areas more closely than the simple per-student costs, Beadle is the first to acknowl- edge that the University and higher education generally may not get even one-fourth the appropriation increases that they seek. The University's bid for $9.3 million increase is only a frac- tional part of a total request by the 10 schools for a $43.8 million increase. These decreases will be neces- sary despite "the fact that the Legislature is giving all the funds that are available," Bea- dle says. What increases are al- See BEADLE, Page 2 FRANK D.

HEYNS ... tentative and inaccurate PRINCIPALS CONFERENCE: Robertson, Lewis Review Counseling By KAREN WEINHOUSE The importance of co-ordinat- ing the total aspects of student life to provide meaningful coun- seling experiences was the central thyme of talks given by James H. Robertson, associate dean of the literary college, and Vice-Presi- dent for Student Affairs James A. INDIVIDUALISM: Kaplan Tells Plight OfJews in Society By ALAN SHULMAN "The essential problem for today's Jew is deciding what kind of an individual he is capable of becoming rather than discovering from what sources his Jewishness is derived," Prof. Abraham Kaplan of the philosophy department said last night, in a discussion entitled "Judaism and Jewishness." 'To a great extent. the problem of finding the self is universal, particularly in the present century," Prof. Kaplan said. "In a sense it has been a perennial problem .'~ that is not just limited to Western civilization. But for the Jew, the: problem is two-fold. ."First, some Jews are distressed h** .. , because the valuable characteris- faf. tics inherent in Judaism can also be found in other places," Prof. Kaplan observed. "For instance,, the certain' moral core in Judaism is shared to a significant degree by the other great religions. In the second place, the Jews have often failed to identify with what is central in their historical ex- perience; their beginnings as a slave people." "The result is that most Ameri- can Jewish college students do not accept themselves .as Jews or do not know what they are accepting ABRAHAM KAPLAN if they do," Prof. Kaplan said. ..Lwhat role to play_ . ... ..L .. Lewis at this year's Principal- Freshman-Counseling Conference. "It is difficult to talk of aca- demic counseling outside of the total experience freshmen have," Dean Robertson said. All factors' of the intellectual climate in which a student moves-the resi- dence halls, his courses, the qual- ity of instruction, his own level of expectations and those of the col- lege-are relevant in providing a meaningful context for the coun- seling experience. "A genuine effort is made to make counseling an adjunct of the teaching responsibility." Rob- ertson noted. All counselors are faculty members whose objective is "to give each student help and encouragement to make the most effective use of their potentiali- ties and opportunities." Accurate Inforrnation Among the many responsibilities of the counselor, Robertson stress- ed the necessity of the student receiving accurate information concerning program and courses of study. To remove the onus from course requirements the counselor should explain the ra- tionale and purpose behind them, he said. He should be willing and able o encourage students to accept he academic challenges of which they are capable. The counselor should be sufficiently alert to take remedial action on a student's program and to make adequate referrals to specialized agencies. The counseling program re- ceives clerical and administrative support so the faculty may devote the most time possible to student contact. Thoseefaculty members w~~ho counsel are given time off from teaching and an added stip- end for their services. Residential Collegef To meet the responsibility of increasing enrollment, Robertson would like to see the establish- mentof mal- rr Cf1Pnininnl committee has been organized to co-ordinate the work of the staff agencies with the academic coun- selors. These agencies include non-academic counseling services, the residence halls and health services. Panel Stresses Fiscal Needs CHICAGO (/P)-State universi- ties can and. must expand their facilities to handle the hordes of high school students who soon will be demanding admission to col- lege, a panel of state university presidents said Tuesday. But, they added, it is going to be a fierce struggle, and the uni- versities will need more state and Federal support than they now are getting. "Even if we had no more stu- dents, we would still have a prob- lem keeping up with expanding knowledge," President Charles Odegaard of the University of Washington told a news confer- ence. "We still would have to build new buildings and remodel the old ones." PETITION: Challenge ILocal Talk y IBarne By ROBERT GRODY A petition was filed Tuesday in Federal Court in Detroit aimed at preventing the scheduled talk by Mississippi Gov. Ross Barnett at the University Monday.E Jackie Vaughn III; a frmer Detroit city council candidate, filed the petition asking the Re- gents to show why the court should not prevent the University from "officially sanctioning the appearance of Gov. Barnett," which, according to Vaughn, con- stitutes approval by the Regents of "his segregationist views." Vaughn said last night that Barnett is "an affront to the Negro population." He went on to say that inviting Barnett is "the same as-inviting Adolf Eichmann." Vaughn is asking for what he called "in this case, a necessary limitation to freedom of speech." He said that Barnett and Ala- bama Gov. George Wallace are in "open rebellion against the Con- stitution." He also pointed out that Barnett's contempt of court case is still pending in Federal District Court. Another aspect of the case, Vaughn said, is that the State Legislature has prohibited univer- sities from sponsoring "objection- able" speakers. Barnett appeared at Western Michigan University last month but was sponsored by a club. University Attorney Edmund A. Cummiskey said last night that if the petition is upheld the Uni- versity will have to comply, but he called the move "rather un- founded" and doubted its success. Barnett's talk is sponsored by the Special Projects Committee of the Michigan Union. Union Pres- ident Raymond Rusnak, '64, said last night that the committee tries to maintain a balance in the speakers it invites.. this time, emphasized that' they had not been subjected to sufficient review and criticism by the faculties of the units concerned or the central ad- ministration. "All of the figures are high- ly tentative; some are clearly not correct; and the total figure is probably the hardest of all to evaluate," Heyns said. He added that any and all growth projec- tions were contingent on securing adequate financial support from the Legislature and other sources. The figures suggest a sizable enrollment increase for every one of the 16 schools and colleges of the University. However, the pro- portion of graduate to undergrad- uate students appears to stay at a 40:60 ratio. It is anticipated, for instance, that in the six-year per- iod from 1962-68, undergraduate enrollment will rise 6000-from 16,000 to 22,000. Graduate enroll- ment is expected to rise 4000- from 10,000 to 14,000. In the period between 1968 and 1975, undergraduate enrollment is expected to rise another 6000 to 28,000. The graduate figure will increase 5000 to a total of 19,000. Based on these projected figures, the University estimates it will need a faculty of over 2500 by 1968 and over 3200 by 1975. The present faculty numbers roughly 2000. However, both administrators and deans who have worked on the figures stress that they are only in the first stages of develop- ment and subject to much change. The figures will have absolutely no meaning if legislative appro- priaitons remain at their current low level, Executive Vice-President Marvin L. Niehuss said.

'To1Co'nsider By KENNETH WINTER Literary c o l le g e department chairmen have begun to consider faculty promotions for school year 1964-65 - using criteria slightly different from last year's. A letter sent last week by its executive committee to the col- lege's department chairmen asks them to begin "active considera- tion" of promotions and to have their recommendations ready by Dec. 21. Three areas of activity are to be considered in promotions: teach- ing, research and service. "To warrant recommendation for pro- motion the executive committee expects that a candidate will have shown excellence in at least one of these activities and have per- formed at a high level of compe- tence in the others," the letter states. This passage corresponds close- ly to all-University promotion criteria announced last May by Vice-resident for Academic Af- fairs Roger W. Heyns. In last year's literary college promotions letter, the comparable statement was worded differently: "... the executive committee be- lieves that excellence in teaching and in research must be regarded as the chief criteria for judging a candidate's qualifications; ex- cellence in administrative and ex- tramural services are regarded as contributory but subsidiary con- siderations." The statement was reworded more to make it clearer than to indicate a policy change, Asso- ciate Dean Burton D. Thuma of the literary college explained yes- terday. "There is a shift in word- ing but I don't think there is much of a shift in what actually hap- pens. "The greatest weight still goes to the production of research. But See DEPARTMENTS, Page 2 VELAZQUCEZ LECTURE: Art Underscores Value of Manual Labor iT By DIANE PINE 11 Velazquez was a forerunner of the idea of "the recognition of manual labor as a dignified endeavor of mankind," Prof. Wolfgang Stechow of the history of art department said yesterday in a lecture. "His conception of religion was based on the interpretation of a direct relationship between God and the people. This feeling is shown in his paintings by the human, realistic way in which his figures are painted," Prof. Stechow said. Velazquez's figures are quite three-dimensional and are in- fluenced by the sculpture of the time, he added. In his "Christ at the Column."'he denicts the human soul in the figure of a small
