The modern' version of Mark
Twain's famous line about not
letting his education get in the
way of his learning is found in the
new LSA Student Government
handbook: "The most effective
way of dealing with the higher
education experience is to deal
with the college experience as if
you are 'playing a game." To
familiarize LSA students with the
rules, LSA-SG has come out with
"Michigopoly," a booklet of-
fering a game plan explaining
resources, grades, ex-
tracurricular activities and
college quirks. The Monopoly
takeoff is available in the LSA
Building.

From AP and UPI
On his last official day as the U.N.
ambassador, Andrew Young said
yesterday the U.S. has more to fear
from its economic competitors than
from the Soviet Union and predicted
that "national economic security" will
be the big issue of the 1980s.
Young reported to President Carter
on his recent trade mission to 10
African nations, saying that the journey
resulted in $1.5 billion in business for
American firms and the total could ex-
pand to $2.5 billion in a couple of years.
"The results were extraordinary,"
Carter told Young.
On his trip, Young criss-crossed the
continent in a gleaming Air Force 707,
hobnobbing with heads of state and
filling local headlines. He looked like a
man making a triumphant farewell
tour.
He was garbed in the cloak of an
Ashanti chief in Ivory Coast and of a
Moslem noble in Nigeria, he was
decorated with the Star of Africa in
Liberia. Tanzania's Julius Nyerere
greeted him fondly as "Andy" and
Cameroonians lined the streets to catch
a glimpse.
This was the vintage Andy Young
using his blend of charisma, frankness,
preaching and politics to guide a
delegation of two dozen American
businessmen through some of Africa's,
most economically promising
republics, selling American technology
and know-how as the "cheapest and
best."
It was also Young the free-lancing
diplomat, telling somewhat surprised
African presidents it was "ridiculous"
that they do not talk to Israel, and
grating on some State Department ner-
ves by saying Soviet troops in Cuba
"haven't bothered me at all" and that
the pro-Soviet Angolan government
should have been recognized long ago.
His traveling style had not changed
much from his first visit to Africa as
U.N. ambassador, in February 1977.
On his return, Young focused on trade
issues, declining to answer most other
questions.

The three universities most frequently mentioned by high-level
execs in major companies when asked where they took their graduate
work were New York University, the University of Michigan, and the
Michigan of the East, Harvard University. A composite "profile" of
corporate movers and shakers developed by an executive search firm
and the UCLA Graduate School of Management confirms that those
who climb to the top and become executive v.p.'s, senior v.p.'s, group
v.p.'s, functional v.p.'s and corporate specialists at those big, big
companies which make the "Fortune 500" and "Fortune 50" lists are
often products of the University. Asked how they Made It, they told
researchers that the following traits contributed: concern for results
(74 per cent), integrity (66 per cent), and desire for responsibility (58
per cent). Among the traits less often mentioned: creativity (45 per
cent), ambition (38 per cent), and aggressiveness (36 per cent).

"The question of our national

national military security is probably
the critical issue of the '80s," Young
said.
"I don; t think we're nearly in as
much jeopardy from the Russians as
we are from some of our economic
competitors.':'
