fessor is listed as receiving
$31,500-$31,9,99-or about $6,000
more than the second highest-
paid professor. Seemingly, if one
were familiar with the educa-
tion school faculty, guessing the
identity of this top-paid pro-
fessor would not be difficult.
One aspect of this new bank
of statistics that may confuse
those attempting to study it, is
that some faculty members are
paid for teaching the nine
month "University year' while
others are paid for teaching a
twelve month fiscal year.
Thus, while two professors
may be receiving the same pay
annually, one may be working a
25 per cent longer year.
Are you
New to the 'U'?
THEN YOU ARE PROBABLY NEW TO
A& 4 .
SO HERE ARE SOME FACTS ABOUT THIS
k0419dequl Pu6Iicaftwp),
" The Daily is run by students
" The Daily is published 5 days a week in summer, 6 in the fall.
" Circulation is around 4000 in summer, 9000 in fall
" The Daily is editorially independent of the University administration.
" The Daily is financially independent of the University administration; it is entirely supported by
advertising and paid subscriptions.
" The Daily is printed by the letterpress method. Typesetting equipment and printing press are on
the first floor of the Student Publications Building.
* The Daily has the latest news deadline in the state. (2 a.m.)
" The Daily is a member of the Associated Press.
You may think the above is designed to sell you a subscription. Well, we wouldn't refuse to take your
money, but that's not the main idea. We want you. The Daily needs students to make it work.
There are no requirements as to field of study; you need not be majoring in journalism or business
or art or anything in particular. If you have any spare time and w o u 1 d like some non-classroom
practical experience (which is hard to find at the 'U') please come over and see us. If you like to
write, you can write. If you don't like to write, you can be invaluable to the business staff. You
can learn a lot of nifty things about newspapers, about the 'U', about Ann Arbor. You can meet
people. The pay is lousy, but the people are fun.

of salaries, along with the per-
son's racial or ethnic back-
ground, would constitute an in-
vasion of privacy.
Fleming's major points were:
-That three private audits
conducted annually satisfy the
public interest that the Univer-
sity's money is properly ex-
pended;
-That affirmative action
progress is monitored by fur-
nishing salary information to
federal agencies; and
-That the University's sala-
ries are no higher than those of
comparable institutions. This,
he said, is ensured through an-
nual review by the State Bu-
reau of the Budget and various
legislative committees.
In the last year, two state-
supported colleges in Michigan
(Michigan State University and
Delta College) have released full
salary information.
The recent ruling against
Saginaw Valley College resulted
from a suit filed by The Bay
City Times. If upheld in high-
er courts, it will likely apply to
all tax-supported colleges in-the
state.
Aside from The Daily, several
women's groups have been ac-
tive in seeking release of the
salary list at the University.
Helen Forsythe, -a spokesper-
son for the Women's Law Stu-
dents Association, which , has
sought release of the data, yes-
terday said: "The thing that is
most surprising about the Re-
gents' vote was that there wan
no discussion (among the Re-
gents) about other universi-
ties which have voluntarily
disclosed salaries.
Regents James Waters and
Gerald Dunn were the only dis-
senters in the regental vote.
Both said they favored release
of the salary data.
Regents William Cudlip, Ger-
trude Huebner, Paul Brown,
Robert Nederlander, Robert
Brown, and Lawrence Linde-
mere voted in the majority.
