Poverty,
teach-in
set today
By JUANITA ANDERSON
The Washtenaw County Black
Economic Development L e a g u e
and Welfare Rights Organization'
(BEDL-WRO) is sponsoring a'
teach-in on poverty and related
issues today.
The day-long symposium deal-
ing with the nature of poverty and
methods of combatting it, will be
feld in Rackham's fourth floor
assembly hall.
Henry Bryant, vice president of
BEDL, explained yesterday that
the goals of the teach-in are com-
munication and education for pro-
fessional people who lack "gut
level knowledge of poverty and
welfare.",
The teach-in is being held at
this time to bring out the urgency.
of the poverty crisis, Bryant said.
The teach-in follows a series of
BEDL-WRO sit-in demonstrations
over the past year, which were
part of an attempt to obtain funds
to assist the county's poor.
In addition to discussion of
economic self determination, the
teach-in will also examine the role
of the professional in the social
movements of poor people.
Policy studied

undertake a three-month study of
University research and bring
back recommendations to Assem-
bly at its June meeting. Assembly
can recommend the abolition of
such research to the Regents, who
must approve changes in the re-
search policies.
In a statement released l a s t
week, the Committee asked that
individuals wishing. to present
particular points of view to the
committee furnish the group with
a written statement of the view-
points so that the committee will
be able to ask questions during
future oral presentations.
Also, the Senate Assembly Com-
mittee on Classified Research
(CCR) is continuing its investi-
gation into classified and military
research.
CCR was similarly requested by
Assembly March 22 to study the
methods it uses to implement cur-
rent guidelines on classified re-
search. The committee will report
its findings to Assembly May 15.
Operating presently in ,closed
sessions, CCR members are pre-
paring position papers which will
be sent to the Research Policies
Committee next month.

An attempt to stop the screening

the latest move by a group called
Dis-ARM to stop radical g r o u p s

American Revolutionary Media,

(Continued from Page 1)
schools would be boosted from $660
to $800.
The overall tuition increase is
estimated at between 15 to 18 per
cent, higher than any of the four!
increases in the last five years.
Student tuition and state appro-
priations form the bulk of revenue
going into the general fund, which
pays for most of the University's
instructional and administrative
costs.
While the University has pro-
jected a minimum increase in the
general fund expenditures of about
$10 million for fiscal 1972, Gov.
William Milliken has asked the
Legislature to approve only a $2.8
million increase in the state ap-
propriations to the fund.
Under the governor's proposal,
the University would obtain ano-
ther $3.3 million by decreasing the
size of its faculty and staff, and
reducing its allocation to the city
for police and fire services.
However, this would still leave
the University short by at least
$4.2 million, which presumably
would be covered by the proposed
tuition increase.
According to University admin-
istrators, the $10 million increase
in general fund expenditures
would be required to cover:
-A $1.3 million increase in the
Opportunity Awards Program,
which provides scholarships f o r
many students admitted in t h e
University's minority admissions
program;
-A $1.8 million increase in non-
salary expenditures, caused by in-
flation;
-A $1.2 million cost for ex-
penditures budgeted during t h e
current fiscal year and carried
over into the next; and
-An increase in faculty a n d
staff salaries of about $6.2 mil-
lion. This would cover the gov-
ernor's proposed 6.5 per cent rise
in faculty salaries.

of nine persons engaged in media
work, reported yesterday that they
received an anonymous call from
Dis-ARM saying that tonight's
showing of "They Shoot Horses,
Don't They?" would be stopped.,
ARM representatives said last
night the film would still be
shown.
Dis-ARM first appeared early
in March when they executed a}
plan to convince people that
scheduled showings of movies pre-
sented by ARM were being can-
celled.
The group wrote "cancelled"
over ARM leaflets advertising the
movies and placed an ad in the

that the United States will com-

In addition to the heaviest B521

visitation in student rooms.
At Texas, "members of the op-
posite sex are allowed in student
room areas only during Official
Open House functions."
At Buffalo, visitation is official-
ly allowed only during "scheduled
open house," but scheduling re-
strictions are almost non-existent.
One problem common to all the
larger universities which generally
do not provide enough housing for
more than a third of their stu-
dent populations, is the high cost
of housing off-campus facing
spiralling dorm rates. Students in
university towns such as Berke-
ley, Madison and Ann Arbor force
the housing market to tighten, be-
cause of their great need for
housing.
