Adelman confirmed as arms chief by Senate The Michigan Daily-Friday, April 15, 1983-Page 3 Budget panel head defends (Continued from Page 1) someone who can just get by, but the very finest negotiating team we can possibly assemble. Unless we put for- ward our best effort, our best team, this may be our last hope for mankind." Sen. Gary Hart (D-Colo.) said Adelman "appears to be more dedicated to an arms buildup than to reducing the hazards of unrestricted competition." His nomination by Reagan, said Hart, "signifies a serious. lack of concern for the efficacy of arms control negotiation." Sen. Ernest Hollings (D-S.C.) did not take part in the floor debate but voted against the nomination. CRANSTON and Hart are announced candidates for the 1984 Democratic presidential nomination. Glenn and Hollings are expected to enter the race shortly. Sen.Charles Percy (R-Ill.), chair- man of the SenateForeign Relations Committee who led the fight for the nomination, saying Adelman's confir- mation would "vigorously move the Reagan administration toward arms control agreements that can win the approval of the Senate." Vice President George Bush, who as president of the Senate was empowered to cast a tie-breaking vote, presided over yesterday's climactic roll call but his vote was not needed. Assistant GOP Leader Ted Stevens of Alaska said he had asked Bush to be present "just in case." p1 I closed in By GEORGEA KOVANIS The chairperson of the University's top budget committee yesterday defen- ded her panel's practice of holding all meetings behind closed doors. Mary Ann Swain, chairwoman of the Budget Priorities Committee, told a small crowd at the final session of Campus Meet the Press that the closed sessions are necessary because com- mittee members discuss personnel matters and the University's budget. "I THINK it's important to allow BPC members to argue vociferously," and in private, she said. But the closed sessions should not af- fect open communication between the committee and the rest of the Univer- sity community, Swain said. "There needs to be more dialogue on these issues (the review process)," Swain said. IN DEFENDING the closed session, Swain pointed out that her committee's primary role is that of an advisory reetings board. Regents and the administration are not obligated to follow through on the committee's recommendations. But\the group still plays an integral role in the University's financial redirection, she said. Swain predicted that the review process, which has been referred to as the "five-year plan," will probably take longer than five years to complete. Swain said the committee's concerns extend beyond purely financial mat- ters. "I think the committee is very concerned about issues of tenure," she said, adding that committee members have influence at the administrative level. "I don't think that the staff or Dr. (Billy) Frye are any more influential than committee members," she said. -HAPPENINGS- Highlight Tonight brings the fourth annual Take Back The Night march and rally, sponsored by the Coalition Against Rape.

Profs criticize research guideli~nes (Continued from Page 1) To Nicholls, the proposed guidelines are "not needed and way off base." Nicholls and other researchers feel the guidelines infringe on their academic freedom. George Haddad, chairman of the electrical and computer engineering department, called the guidelines an attempt to "legislate morality." HADDAD, WHO recently completed a project for the Navy to improve missile guidance systems, said, "I still feel the best way is to trust individual faculty members . . . as long as the research is open." But campus critics of defense depar- tment-sponsored projects say non- classified research is neither innocent of weapons applications nor totally open. "They say it's open, but then when you scrutinize it they hit the roof. They say you're not a scientist or anything," said Roger Kerson, hired by MSA in September to investigate Pentagon sponsored research. KERSON THINKS the proposed guidelines will have a significant im- pact. "I think the effect of what we've done is that things are not as likely to slide through," he said. But Kerson and others said they are not happy with the faculty's decision to have each school, college, and depar- tment enforce the guidelines. They say University - wide enforcement would be better because it would have no vested interests. Although the faculty did call for some sort of committee to watch over the procedure, graduate student Ben Davis, a member of the Research Policies Committee, which recommen- ded the guidelines, said, "The way it is set up it is not clear. . . how a project would be rejected." VICE-PRESIDENT for Research Charles Overberger said the executive officers have been talking with school deans and department heads about the proposed guidelines, but he did not know when a decision will be reached on methods to police them. Although the faculty vote asked for each school and department to come up with a way to enforce the guidelines, specifics will be up to the University's executive officers. Overberger said he did not know whether the final decision will be made by the executive officers of taken to the Regents. LSA senior Tom Marx, another member of the committee, said the purpose of the guidelines is not so much to stop projects currently underway, but to cause researchers to think twice about submitting questionable projects in the first place. "I THINK we've already had an ef- fect in that professors know that if they were doing a project that would blatan- tly violate ethics, we would know," Marx said. In support of his view, Marx points to 1972, the year the University adopted guidelines restricting classified resear- ch. In 1972, classified research accoun- ted for about 57 percent of the defense department's expenditures on campus, a figure which has fallen to about six percent. divestiture of its labs in Willow Run, now the Environmental Research In- stitute in Michigan. No classified projects have been rejected by the University since the guidelines were adopted. THE RESEARCHERS who have been singled out by Marx and Kerson said they probably will not be affected by the new guidelines., Philip Jackson, a research scientist in the geological sciences department, does work on mapping terrain with radar. This type of research is used for mapping such places as the Amazon River Basin or the cloud-covered coast of Alaska. Critics charge it is the same type of technology used to guide cruise missiles. "I WOULD be foolish to say (the research) couldn't be used for guidance or a reconnaissance plane," Jackson said, but added that he would have put in the same proposal under the proposed guidelines. "I FEEL there's little technology that can be done that isn't applicable to the military," he said. Engineering Prof. Thomas Senior, who receives one of the largest propor- tions of military funds on campus, said 'if the guidelines are adopted, "I will be a little more sensitive to the concerns of others," but said his paramount con- cern lies with more than a dozen graduate students whom his research supports. DAVIS AGREED that the example of the classified guidelines showed they were not a "significant deterrent." But he said the fight for restrictions has educated people who were formerly in- different. "The point is that two years ago military research was not much of an issue ... People didn't know what was going on and they were not interested and there were no guidelines," he said. "With all the feelings against military research. . . politics comes in very strongly. Some people just get all upset when you talk about the Depar- tment of Defense," Nicholls said. Like Senior, Nicholls said his primary responsibility is to his studen- ts, but "if in addition I can help the Department of Defense, that's icing on the cake," he said.
