Performances The Michigan Daily - Friday, March 16, 1984 - Page 3 U' won't rule out tuition hike By LAURIE DELATER Administrators at yesterday's regents meeting refused to rule out a tuition hike as a way to balance next year's University budget, despite pressure in the last several months from Gov. James Blanchard's administration to hold student fees down. Billy Frye, University vice president for academic affairs and provost, also told the regents that $2.5 million should be spent to boost the salaries of professors in highly marketable fields such as engineering, business administration, and computer science. ADMINISTRATORS HAVE been warning for several years that these professors will flee from the University for higher paying jobs if their salaries are not kept competitive with other colleges. Frye said that another 5 percent faculty salary increase will be needed to keep professors' salaries even with inflation. The salary increases would be distributed unequally among professors based on merit. Utility cost inflation and raises for staff drive the University's total needs up to $26 million, Frye said. THE STATE AID which administrators are expecting would not be able to cover these expenses without a tuition hike, University President Harold Shapiro said. A state House subcommittee last night passed a budget which contains a 10 percent aid increase over last year for the University but would cut any link the increase would have to tuition increases. Under Blanchard's proposed budget, which the Republican-controlled Senate may still pass, the University would have to hold the line on undergraduate, in-state tuition or give up some of the state aid for which it qualifies. For every additional dollar the University would generate if it hiked 'As long as there remains this kind of uncertainty, I think we'd like to leave the option of tuiton open.' - Billy Frye, Vice President for academic affairs and provost tuition, it would lose one dollar in state appropriations, Shapiro said. IF THE UNIVERSITY were to raise tuition for out- of-state, graduate and professional students by the rate of inflation, or 5 percent, it would receive an addition of only $5 million, not enough to balance the University's budget, Frye said. The amount of aid the University will finally,4t is still highly uncertain because the state budget still has to be considered by the full state House and Senate. "As long as there remains this kind of uncertaifity, I think we'd like to leave the optino of tuition open,' Frye said. Administrators will put off any decisidA on next year's tuition until the summer, he said. THE PROVOST SAID. that the budget ojuine discussed yesterday would allow the University nly to tread water, hoping that prestigious faculty don't leave the University and that high tuition costs don't drive too many low-income students away. The budget does not include "long-delayed equipment replacement," Frye said. The 10 percent state aid increase sent to the HAuse yesterday would increase the University's aide by $14.9 million, but falls far short of the $40 million boost the University told the state last fall it wbtuld need. Since that request, administrators have trimmned that $40 million of expenditures down to the .$26 million discussed at yesterday's meeting.

Berger will orally present the report of the education school transition team which drew up'plans to reduce the school's budget by 40 percent. The $1.9 million cut will be implemented over the next five years beginning, with the University's new fiscal year in July. THE BUDGET cuts, according to Berger, will include: BLosing' 3professors from the current staff of 75 faculty members through retirement, early retirement, and transfers to professorial and ad- ministrative positions elsewhere in the University' * Cutting the Program in Guidance and Counseling; * Eliminating international and com- parative education from the program in adult and continuing education; " Slashing the audiology program from the Special Education program in Speech and Hearing sciences; " Reducing the number of staff in administrative offices; and Cutting down the number of programs available at the school through combining of units. There will he a reduction from 13 to 4 instructional units for undergraduates, 63 to 13 for masters students, and 54 to 15 for doc- toral candidates. WHILE implementing these cuts, the school was ordered by the Office of Academic Affairs to aggressively recruit students in order to maintain current enrollment levels, said Berger. Berger said he is presenting the report exactly six months after being appointed dean. "In just'months we've created literally, a new school of education," he said. The budget cuts are part of a five year plan to reallocate University funds to high-priority areas of the University. The Schools of Natural Resources and Arts have received budget cuts of 25 percent and 18 percent respectively. - Karen Tensa FREE MEDITATION CLASSES LEARN: Basic Meditation Methods Practical Applications of Meditation Death and Reincarnation Classes given Wednesday, March 21 through Monday, March 26, Weekday Evenings 7:30 pm, Weekends 11 am and 3 pm Coef n ralOffered t n a/by studentsi "4 ofg ..

In an interview after the meeting, Baker said that the regents must ap- prove any changes in the University's non-discrimination policy. Shapiro declined to comment on Baker's statement. THE UNIVERSITY bylaws currently prohibit discrimination on the basis of race, sex, color, religion, creed, national origin, or ancestry, age, marital status, handicap, or Vietnam- era status. Although Shapiro's statement this week appears to prohibit discrimination against ' gays, homosexuality will not be added to the list of protected groups in the bylaws. One regent, however, said that the current University policy protects gays. "Our policy already guarantees non- discrimination," said Robert Nederlander (D-Detroit). "But if the president wants to issue a statement, that's fine with me." Baker, however, said it would have been better if Shapiro had remained silent and not issued the statement. "We should remain silent," Baker said. "I object to the methods used." Also at yesterday's meeting the board approved the appointment of June Osborn as the new dean of the School of Public Health.
