POTHOLES, DEVELOPMENT OFTE C ouncil sees By JOHN GOYER When the clerk calls the roll during i meeting of Ann Arbor's City Council, ,he votes are often split along party ines, with the seven Republicans and our Democrats mounting on opposite ;ides of the issue. In such a climate, mundane issues ecome controversial. In fact, Council ill often debate for more than two ours about such burning issues as hether city voters will use computer abulated punch card ballots in the next ity election or stick with the old voting achines. SOME ISSUES turn up again year af- er year, while others simply succumb o marathon discussions one or two imes and are never brought up again. ome of the issues likely to be raised uring the fall are: Zoning and planning. Deciding hat kind of edifices can be built on ertain parcels of land is probably the ost basic power a city government etains. Council must approve all .oning changes and new building plans. In Ann Arbor, planning decisions are ften occasions for protest from city esidents who believe a construction roject may be more harmful than roductive. At last count, there were 22 neigh- orhood groups in Ann Arbor, formed of esidents concerned about maintaining he amount of undeveloped space in the 'ity. Last spring, strident opposition rom residents of the city's north side ed to the withdrawl of plans for a $70 illion,- 22-story convention cen- er/condominium complex on the bank of the Huron River, which wa called Riverside Plaza.

In act, many go on to graduate with ex- :ellent grade point averages and still iave no idea of what they want to do for iliving. According to Career Planning and 'lacement counselor Lillian Harrison, nost students entering college are un- iertain as to their future goals. Some rim for career goals that sound ap- >ealing, but about which they know lit- le, she said. Barbara Weinstein, an LSA coun- elor, said there is "A great moving rom field to field," among college students. According to Harrison, a rajority of students change their majors during their four-year Univer- sity stints. Those who do so, Weinstein adds, are "later most satisfied with their careers." Many students who have certain cademic interests "have a hard time ranslating" those interests into areers, according to Weinstein. She aid students sometimes go to college s a "lack of desirable alternatives," or ecause of parental pressure. John Krienke of the Counseling Cen- er said studies on counseling have ecommended more vocational coun- eling. High schools, he said, don't rovide enough funds for career education and counseling. KRIENKE SAID one problem is that tudents are indoctrinated with the idea that "if they do well in school doing all they can to set themse life." As a result "students com prepared," he said. Many students take a Campbell Survey before the college. The survey is a questi used to indicate interest capabilities of students. But, H said, this is only "one tool" tha used in helping students sele careers. It gives students some what they would like to do, but it offer definite answers, she said. The Strong-Campbell Surve Krienke, must be used in con with individual counseling. "It in the hands of a skilled counse said.
