4 OPINION Page 4 Sunday, February 14, 1982' The Michigan Dal 4 Robots coming in; U-Cellar going out T'S FINAL. The robots are com- ing. After three months of uncertainty, the word came that Ann Arbor will be the location of the $200-million robotics research center. And, to further the ties between the planned robotics center and the University, Engineering Professor Arch Naylor was chosen as its first director. That revelation came only one day before the University announced that it had acquired 400; acres of woodland beyond North Campus for a high technology research park. The park, ac- cording to University officials, could be the site of the massive robotics center that Naylor now -heads. Although the relationship between the University and the private high technology park has not been precisely defined, officials said University scholars would word closely with industry representatives on research projects. The park is also expected to inspire commer- cial development in the area, including the construction of new restaurants, a drug store, and a hotel. State and private industry officials on a special High Technology Task Force appointed by Gov. William Milliken had said for months that Ann Arbor was the likely site of the multimillion robotics research center, but final word on its location did not come until Thur- sday, via Naylor. The center is the key to the governor's plan to diversify- the state's economy by attracting new, fast-growing high technology research and industrial firms. According to that plan, private industry, the state, and the University would cooperate in rebuilding the state's economy through major Raking in the robots breakthroughs in robotics that could be applied in southeastern Michigan's manufacturing and automobile industries. Sweet sorrow of parting THE UNIVERSITY CELLAR found out there's no place like home-except if you happen to live at the Michigan Union. Although the two had survived a rocky, decade-long coupling, the U-Cellar formalized its split from the Union last week by signing a new location lease. The U-Cellar will vacate the Union by June 15 and move to a new site on East Liberty and Division. The student bookstore was forced out of its Union home when negotiations with Union Director Frank Cianciola bogged down over a problem that breaks up many good marriages-money. An impasse occurred when the Union proposed hiking the bookstore's rent by 65 percent. The financially- strapped U-Cellar felt somewhat cheated by such demands, especially after previously agreeing to pay for some current renovations. A reconciliation was hoped for by many students. The U-Cellar, operated by students, kept its textbook prices low,thus forcing down prices of competitors such as Follett's and Ulricb's. The U-Cellar's new location may also discourage some of its regular customers from making the trudge off campus. U-Cellar management, however, is discussing setting up a shuttle service, so it can still see the kids during bookrush. At the week's end, however, the store's newfound freedom was marred by a union em- ployees' "sick-out." Roughly 85 percent of the labor force stayed home for a day, protesting large discrepancies between management and employee salary levels. Breaking up is hard to do. Trying to lend a hand THEY JUST CAN'T leave the dirty work to the administration. The students at the Michigan Student Assembly claim that they, too, should be allowed to discontinue departments and eliminate programs-just like administrators. In conjunction with the administration's "Five-year-plan," MSA leaders would like to provide their own list of students to sit on program and departmental review commit- tees, which will examine University academic units and eventually decide whether or not to eliminate them. Vice President for Academic Affairs Billy Frye, a spoilsport of the worst kind, yelled foul. MSA could suggest a poolrof students, Frye said, and the executive officers would choose the student committee members from that pool. At last report, however, MSA still was pushing for its own way and Frye still wasn't being very compromising. If the students pushed too hard, Frye argued, they would lose all their representation, and the elimination fun and games would be solely the administration's to enjoy. Maybe Frye, in exchange, could start a pool of departments he'd like to see cut, and allow students and faculty to decide which will go the way of geography. New delay for Kelly trial N OW SCHEDULED for early May, the trial of Leo Kelly was postponed yet again last week. Kelly, 22, has been held without bail in Washtenaw County Jail since the shootings and has undergone psychiatric testing at the forensic center in Ypsilanti. Fighting for financial aid F ORMING A MOST unusual duo, di's- tradught student leaders 'and panicky University administrators emerged as allies last week to wage war against the Reagan ad- ministration's proposals to cut federal finan- cial aid to students. Those worried about how the suggested wholesale cutbacks in loans and grants will af- fect higher education-and the Univer- sity-publicly declared a "state of emergency" last week. In a session attended by more than 100 students from the University and other colleges across the state, officials began a campaign directed at informing students about the Reagan administration's recommendations to cut financial aid almost in half by 1984. The plan of attack includes urging students to write letters to congressional representatives, deputizing 55 students as voter registrars to garner University support, and sending a busload of students to Washington March 1 for a national financial aid cut protest. ,The pending cutbacks promise to affect nearly all of the 20,000 University students who receive loans or grants from the federal gover- nment. As University President Harold Shapiro told a national television audience on Tuesday, "A college education will not be available, to everyone who is academically qualified. Some students will have to leave college." Those students who rely most heavily on such educational subsidies don't need experts to tell them that access to the University will be limited and that enrollment is likely to fall. It seems as if the Reagan administration finally has come up with a cure to overcrowded classrobms. The Week in Review was compiled by Daily editors Andrew Chapman, Julie Hinds, David Meyer, and former Daily editor Julie Engebrecht. The Week in Review will be featured every Sunday. Kelly: Trial postponed Kelly, a former LSA student charged in the shotgun deaths of two Bursley Hall residents last April 17, is scheduled to go on trial May 10 before Circuit Judge Ross Campbell. Kelly's attorney has said his client will plead temporary insanity. Early on that Good Friday morning last year, the 6th-floor Douglas House hallway in Bursley Hall filled with smoke after someone, allegedly Kelly, lobbed a Molotov cocktail at an exit door. A resident of the house pulled a fire alarm, and in the smoky confusion that followed, others groped their way toward the exit. Two students, Edward Siwik, 19, and Douglas McGreaham, 21, a resident advisor ;from another house who had come upstairs to help with the evacuation, never made it outside. Several gun blasts allegedly fired by Kelly, who was reported standing in the doorway to his room wielding a sawed-off shotgun, cut down Siwik and McGreaham. Police found Kelly sitting in his room after the shootings, a shotgun on his bed.
