In what one Regent dubbed an
"obituary" for the University; ad-
ministrators forecast yesterday more
severe financial setbacks in store for
the University.
Vice President for Academic Affairs
Bill Frye and other top-level administr-
ators outlined for the Regents methods
being used to cope with the current
financial strain as well as additional
losses with which the University must
deal in the coming months.
IN THE MOST comprehensive
analysis of the University's financial
situation released to date, Frye said
students next fall will probably face
tuition hikes somewhere in the "mid-
teens" in percentage terms.
The administrators said until they
can be more sure of how much the
University will receive in state ap-
propriations next year, it is too early to
tell how the University will be affected.
The administration expects the state
legislature to approve Gov. William
Milliken's proposed 12 percent ap-
propriation increase for the University
within the next several weeks, Frye
reported. However, he also warned the
University will not receive the full
amount unless the state's economy
bounces back to the level the governor's
office expects.
IN ADDITION, Congress' reaction to
President Reagan's proposed cuts for
financial aid and government-spon-
sored research projects will have a
great impact on the University, Frye
warned.
University President Harold Shapiro
added that indirect effects of the
Reagan budget policy hurt the Univer-
sity through a "substantial reduction in
aid to state and local governments."
"That is going to put considerable ex-
tra pressure on state budgets and in-
crease competition for support from
state and local governments, Shapiro
said. Proposed state tax reform
measures, which could decrease state
revenues by $250 million, also con-

Regents reject

tribute to the problem, Shapiro said.
SHAPIRO SAID, however, there is
still a "tremendbus amount of uncer-
tainty" surrounding the external finan-
cial situation.
Concerning increases in fixed costs,
such as utilities, staff benefits, and
other internal commitments, Vice
President and Chief Financial.Officer
James Brinkerhoff contributed his
somewhat dismal prognosis on the
University's fiscal ailments.
"The deregulation of natural gas
(prices) has caused us to anticipate a 25
percent increase in the cost of (fuel),"
Brinkerhoff said. Only last fall the ad-
ministration had estimated an expen-
diture of $1.8 million for the next fiscal

roes
year, but now a $2.8 million increase is
expected, he said.
BRINKERHOFF ALSO said in-
creased building space due to nearly
completed construction of certain
capital projects would add to the total
drain on utilities.
An additional $2 million will have to go
toward increases in Social Security
costs and other staff benefits, he said.
Vice President for Research Charles
Overberger informed the Regents that
in addition to federal social science
research cutbacks - which Reagan has
referred to in his public addresses -

PIllGIAI
By BARRY WITT
The Public Interest Research Group
in Michigan lost its bid for a
refusable/refundable system of collec-
ting funds from students yesterday, as
the University's governing board
defeated Regent Gerald Dunn's (D-
Lansing) motion to implement a new
financing system, 5-2.
The Regents voted to continue the
positive check-off system of soliciting
for the next two years, but dropped the
requirement that PIRGIM receive 25
percent studentsupport each term.
THE REFUSABLE/refundable
method, which received support only
from Dunn and Regent Nellie Varner
(D-Detroit), would have automatically
assessed students $2 on their tuition
bills each term unless they requested
the University not do so.
"I think (PIRGIM's) track record of
good for the citizens of Michigan speaks

for itself," Dunn said in support of the
organization.
But Regent Deane Baker (R-Ann Ar-
bor), the board member most vocal in
his opposition to allowing PIRGIM to
use the University billing system for
fundraising, said, "The issue isn't how
good a job somebody does."
Baker, and the other opponents to
refusable/rfundable, argued PIRGIM
does not deserve an "unfair advan-
tage" over other organizations in its
fundraising attempts.
Baker also disputed PIRGIM's claim
to overwhelming support from students
on campus. "There is no doubt that
student support for PIRGIM is rapidly
declining," he said.
Baker said he did not want PIRGIM
to use the University's billing system in
any way, but his motion to stop the
positive check-off system received nd
support.
City may
get half
million for
fire safety
By DE BI DAVIS
The state House approved a measure
Thursday that could restore half a
million dollars to the city to pay for fire
protection services to state-owned
buildings, namely the University.
The bill, now in the Senate Ap-
propriations Committee, is expected to
be considered by the entire legislature
Monday. If passed, it will go to Gov.
William Milliken for final approval.
CURRENTLY, Ann Arbor and other
cities with large amounts of state land,
are operating without such state sub-
sidies.
Since state-owned institUtions are tax
exempt, local property taxes must
finance such services, producing a
financial burden for cities.
But although the funding may be
