Page Eight THE MICHIGAN DAILY Tuesday, February 29, 1972 Page Eight THE MICHIGAN DAILY ASK EVICTION LIST: Members of Women seek greater enrollment in law co-op may strike for rent demands By LORIN LOBARDEE A massive rent strike by the Pontiac Heights Ad Hoc Tenants' 'Union (PHAHTU) may take place if their demands are not met by the Board of Dirsectors of the co- operative there. According to Ann Desautels, a spokesman for PHAHTU, the members of the Tenants Union (TU), will decide on whether or not to strike at a mass meeting to be held tomorrow. The rent strike will be consid- ered if action is not taken on the TU demands but David Romain, a vice president of the Pontiac Heights Housing cooperative said that the Board of Directors of the Cooperative was never presented with the demands. "They never placed those demands formally to the Board," he said. Jim Madden, another member of the Tenant's Union, however, stated that he personally gave Romain the de- mands at Romain's home on Sat- urday. Among the demands asked for is the list of 150 names of fami- lies who are supposedly slated for eviction, which TU says is held by the Board of Directors of the Co- operative. The Tenant's Union is also de- manding documentation that pres- (Continued from Page 1) qualified applicants are admitted without regard to sex. Hence, the "women's admission p o l i c y" is cast in terms of continuing non- discrimination, rather than em- bodying a specific program to re- cruit' and admit women to law school. McCauley says he devotes "very little" special attention to women's applications.

McCauley has no information of the number of women applicants to the school for this year, but it will be prepared for next year., While administrators say they treat all applicants equally, ac- cording to the "Admissions Office Report" of the Law School this year, the women first-year stu- dents admitted in 1970 had over two-tenths higher grade point av- erages and scored 28 points higher on their Law. School Admissions Test (LSAT) than the freshman average. The admissions process itself, as outlined by McCauley, is based on a compilation of data which has been designed to predict those who will be "successful" in Law School, success being defined exclusively as a higher law school grade point average achieved. The prediction index consists of Law School Ad- mission Test scores and adjusted grade point averages in college, as well as weighing for caliber of the applicant's alma mater. A University law professor has found that presently women as a whole tend to get slightly lower grades than men all other factors constant, the reverse of what sta- tistically used to be true. With regard to a law school ad- missions dean working under a completely "objective" numerical prediction system, Forsyth says that if "one's goal is admitting the people who are going to get the best grades, then to admit the man over the woman because that's the way our statistics work, well, that is sex discrimination clear and simple." 4' DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN K :"~~~~~...::1S[G r:::..r:::::::.:?::r .. ............r..... .r.. . . . . . . . . ......... ..'r:i}"S:}r:..n... ........
