The Michigan Daily-Wednesday, March 23, 1983-Page 3, Survey tallies student expenses By CARL WEISER The cost of pizza, movies, and recor- ds are part of a questionnaire being distributed by the Office of Financial Aid to get a student perspective on educational expenses. The survey, which is being sent ran- domly to 7,000 students, is the third such questionnaire to be used by the University, said Bob Holmes, assistant academic affairs vice president. The last was distributed in 1979 and the first went out in 1974. HOLMES SAID the 81-question sur- vey will help financial aid officals to determine the minimum amount of aid Klansman says FBI informant shot Liuzzo By GEORGEA KOVANIS FBI informant Gary Thomas Rowe used Ku Klux Klansman Eugene Thomas'.38 caliber revolver to kill civil rights worker Viola Liuzzo nearly 18 years ago, according to a video-taped deposition by Klansman Collie LeRoy Wilkins. Wilkins' deposition was presented in U.S. District Court in Ann Arbor yesterday in a trial involving a $2 million lawsuit filed by Liuzzo's children against the U.S. government. They accused FBI informant Rowe of murdering their mother and hold the government responsible for Rowe's ac- tions. LIUZZO WAS traveling along High- way 80 between Montgomery and Selma, Ala. on March 25, 1965 when she was shot. She had been transporting voters rights marchers between Selma and Montgomery. According to Wilkins' testimony, Rowe ordered the car carrying himself, Wilkins, and two other Klansmen to pursue the car transporting Liuzzo and fellow civil rights worker, LeRoy Moten. The Liuzzo car "had a white woman and a nigger in it," Wilkins said. WILKINS SAID Thomas, the driver of the car carrying the Klansmen, obeyed Rowe, adding that Thomas hit speeds of 95-100 mph while pursuing the car carrying Liuzzo and Moten. "He stuck his arm out the window and shot her," he testified. "He shot four or five times with Thomas' .38 caliber revolver." WILKINS SAID they never stopped to see if Liuzzo or Moten had been killed. Instead they continued to travel to Bessemer where they stopped for a few drinks at a bar before moving on to a local VFW hall. Wilkins said he hated seeing white and blacks - like Liuzzo and Moten - together. "We just didn't believe in race mixing," he said. "I just don't believe that it is right for the races to mix, they've always been separated," he added, saying that when the world was formed different races were given dif- ferent continents to live on. WILKINS SAID he assumed people like Liuzzo who associated with blacks were senseless. "I just figured they didn't have good sense." Wilkins served time in a federal penitentiary for 5 years for violating Liuzzo's civil rights. He was found not guilty of murder. However, in his testimony yesterday, he maintained that he never told the full story of what actually happened on that dark, misty evening in March, 1965. He said his attorney at the time advised him not to mention that Rowe shot Liuzzo with Thomas' gun. a student needs to make it through a year at the University. "We don't want (financial aid recipients) to live below the poverty level," he said. Officials want student input to help determine a suitable minimum aid figure because students "are the people who know best," he said. The survey is divided into four secitons to explore the personal backgrounds of responding students, their expenses and income, their responses to possible increased costs, and their evaluation of the financial aid presently available to them. BESIDES quesitons about weekly expenses, such as pizza, movies, and records, students are asked to estimate how much they spend on books, room and board, arnd clothing for a typical year. The survey also asks students how they would meet unexpected increases of $400, $800, $1200, and $1800. Researchers in the Office of Academic Planning and Analysis will process the surveys and release a com- puter evaluation of the results through the Office of Financial Aid during the spring, Holmes said. "The surveys will influence the amount of money allocated to financial aid," Holmes said. Because of the weight the results will carry, he saidj, officials will be wary of the numbers submitted by students. "Some jokers will write that they spend ten grand on pizza every week," Holmes said. Officials will use the results to revise their figures for each category of finan- cial aid recipient. Holmes said a good example would be the different expen-. ses of a sophomore living in a house a4 opposed to a freshman living in a dorm.

Heavy MSA switchesinsurance firms By LAURIE DELATER The Michigan Student Assembly voted last night to drop the company which currently handles its property insurance plan for students. The assembly accepted a recommen- dation from an insurance subcommit- tee to change from G-M Underwriters Inc. to National Student Service Inc. "G-M Underwriters is a fly-by-night operation," said Dan Plante, the sub- committee's chairman. LAST YEAR, the assembly decided to end arrangements with G-M for student health insurance policies after claims that the company was not living up to MSA expectations, Plante said. The insurance committee discovered last year that the unlicensed company over-charged MSA for service costs, he later said. Other information about the com- pany's mistakes were part of the com- mittee's files which disappeared in the mid-'70s. According to Plante, there is some question about the company's possible involvement in the disap- pearance of those files. G-M UNDERWRITERS in the past had also charged different health in- surance rates to students at the Univer- sity's three campuses. "Students at Flint and Dearborn were charged $5 more for health insurance protection," he said. The new propoerty policy, offered by NSSI at about 150 college campuses Dr. MEIR PE'IL "THE UNIQUE RESOURCE OF THE STATE OF ISRAEL- IT'S MILITARY SYSTEM, AND IT'S LIMITATIONS" Thursday, March 24 4:10 pm Assembly Hall, Rackham across the country, also is "a bit more compatible with student needs," Plante said. The policy is available to all Univer- sity students, unlike the current plan which is offered only to students in University-owned, operated, or af- filiated housing. For an annual fee of $32, the plan covers personal property valued at a minimum of $2000. ,Students can increase their protec- tion in $500 increments up to $6000 un- der the new policy. In addition to the $25 deductible of- fered in the current plan, the cost of the NSSI policy decreases by $5 as the deductible doubles. PERSONAL ITEMS including clothing, television sets, stereo equip- ment, cameras, rental refrigerators, typewriters, and calculators are covered under the policy. Bicycle theft, contact lenses, and monev are not covered, however. Plante said NSSI is considering an option for coverage of personal com- puters, recognizing their growing popularity on college campuses "We're assuming they won't be covered next year because they have only men- tioned it to us," he said.
