In addition, Smith cited the dis-
mal results of salary gains in the
past years. "If we were to ask
for the total which is justified," he
said, "we would ask for 10.5 per
cent."
Reacting to the regental deci-
sion, Dorin Hinerman, chairman
of the Senate Advisory Committee
on University Affairs (SACUA),
yesterday deferred official com-
ment until SACUA consults collec-
tively on Monday.
However, he said he personally
believed, "The budget for every-
thing else in the Legislature is de-
cided before the education bud-
get for the University is consid-
ered. We usually get what's left.
It may not make a difference what
the University requests."
However, economics Prof. Fus-
feld, chairman of the University of
Michigan Association for Collec-
tive Bargaining, said yesterday

gers of the University. That 5.5
per cent increase is hardly enough
to keep up with inflation."
He added, "It used to be that
the University was up in the Top
Ten in academic pay, now it's
down around 35th as of last year.
In the long run, it will mean
downgrading the quality of the
University."
In the course of the debate,
Vice President for State Relations
and Planning Fedele Fauri noted
that a differential had grown in
recent years between state appro-
priations for state civil service
employes and those in higher edu-
cation.
Civil service appropriations, de-
termined by the recommendations
of a separate pay board, can be
changed only by a two-thirds ma-
jority vote of the Legislature.
Higher education appropriationsj
requests, however, can easily be
changed by the legislature through
their normal procedures.
In other action, the Regents de-I
ferred the appointment of Thomas
Easthope as assistant vice presi-
dent for student services until
their October meeting.
Vice President for Student Ser-
vices Henry Johnson said he had
hoped to get approval of the ap-
pointment this month, but that the
necessary . paperwork to get the
matter on the Regents' regular
agenda had not been completed in
time.
He added that the board had ex-
pressed approval of Easthope and
that confirmation at the next
meeting should be no problem.
However, a highly-placed source
said that some Regents had want-
ed further information about East-
hope, causing the delay.

"We tried to treat every area

Ashby added that the registra-

after the Aug. 8 election as pos-

end of the drive when classes
were in session for students to

"It was also my understanding
that the university will not allow

A hearing for the suit is sched-
