By GENE ROBINSON
President Robben Fleming said yesterday that he does
not expect to appoint a successor to Research Vice President
A. Geoffrey Norman until March at the earliest.
However, a choice will be made "certainly before the end
of the term," he said.
Norman, who is past retirement age, announced his
resignation last June to be effective Jan. 1. After proceedings
to find a successor became stalled, Norman was granted
authorization by the Regents to remain until the choice Was

Until recently, we did not charge U-M students buying books and
supplies the four per cent Michigan sales tax because of a loophole
in the State law.
But while you were home for the holidays, eating the Christmas
goose and just generally whooping it up, the Michigan Legislature
CHANGED THE LAW. Now we are REQUIRED to charge everyone
the four per cent.
We wish we didn't have to, and we felt you deserved an explana-
tion ...
But we still discount school supplies a phenomenal FIFTEEN PER
CENT, and we knock five per cent off all new books, plus we have
thousands of used course books, cheap.
