A small fire which broke out yes- terday in Bursley Hall brought to 45 the number of blazes strik- ing University buildings in the last month. In addition to the two fires re- ported in South Quad Thursday, three more blazes were set later that night. The fires hit a laundry room, an incinerator room, restrooms. and AFFIRMATIVE ACTION: U' ups women's wages (continued from Page 1) yiew procedures to pinpoint salary inequities between male and fe- male non-academic employes. . The Personnel Office last montho released initial results of its em- ploye review. The office identified 424 non-academic women employes who earn 10 per cent or below the median salary in their 'respectivej Students seek exam options (Continued from Page 1) pleased with the resulting tests. Medical student John Kukora says "the tests do not measure what they should" in terms of what students have learned in the course. Not all students favor a change in the system, however.' Natural Resources student Cas- ey Sterbenz, '71, says he thinks "there. is a lot of opposition" to dropping finals, in his college, and that because of class size, it is perhaps the only adequate means of assessing a student's level of knowledge. According to Herman Merte, professor of: mechanical engineer- ing, the engineering college pres- ently has no rule requiring that final exams bemheld. However, many faculty members are un- aware of their option. Currently, only students taking laboratory do not take final ex- ams in the college. Merte says many faculty mem- bers are in favor of retaining final exams. They believe that prepa- ration for an exam gives a stu- dent the opportunity to review the entire course and see how "the bits and pieces interact," ac- cording to Merte. Tom Beaver, a student on the ad hoc ommittee, disagrees. Ac- cording to Beaver, "cramming for a final exam is not a good learn- ing experience," and a greater number of comprehensive tests given throughout the semester .might be a better idea. Beaver says the committee wants to set up a trial period during*which"more instructors will exercise -their option not to hold exams. Termpaper Arsenal, Inc.

However only 13 of these women-or less than .03 per cent-were recommended for salary adjustment by their supervisors. Of the 13 employes identified, it appears that not all will receive approval from the Compensation Office because of differences of fairness concepts between super- visors and the Personnel Office. In addition to women recom- mended by the Personnel Office and identified by the women's commission, women have received salary adjustments as a result of readjustments of job classifica- tions, according to Zena Zumeta, woman's representative. Zumeta, who works with both the women's commission and the Personnel Office, cited changes in the classification within the edi- torial job category as responsible for salary adjustment of 10 to 12 women. Zumeta, who had been critical of the initial results of the Per- sonnel Office review, said she was pleased with the Smith review but added, "I'm sure if different peo- ple looked again they could find more names." Comparing review of academic and non-academic personnelZu- meta commented, "Academic sup- ervisors have more leewaysetting salaries of their employes, and also feel more leeway to readjust the salaries. For non-academic em- ployes, the Personnel Office sets salary guidelines." U.M. BARBERS AMP Flairstylists OPEN SATURDAYS U.M. UNION An official memo, issued by Housing Security Officer Dave Foulke, set up more stringent se- curity precautions as a result of the "state of emergency" at South and West Quads. The precautions include: -A "locked door" policy for South and West Quads which re- quires dorm resident identification for admittance to the building; -Guest admittance only when accompanied by a dorm resident; -The prosecution of all persons who refuse to identify themselves, who forcefully gain entry to the hall, or who fail to leave when asked. "Residents who tamper with the doors or hassle security personnel will be dealt with under the ap- propriate civil or criminal code," the memo stated. Residents were also urged to report any persons loitering around the hall. "The inconveniences that these measure will present are acknowl- edged in advance, but they are far outweighed by the necessity for decisive action now to prevent loss of life or serious property damage," the memo concluded. According to University officials, yesterday's Bursley Hall fire be- gan when a broken up wicker chair was set ablaze. The fire was put out quickly and damage was not serious. Dorm officials were unsure when the new restrictions in the dorms would be lifted. Any information, tips or descrip- tions that students may have in regard to the fires can be passed along anonymously by calling 764- 6185 or 763-3434 or writing 3011 Student Activities Building.
