Page 4 - The Michigan Daily - Thursday, September 6, 1984 'U' saves phys. ed. By GEORGEA KOVANIS The physical education program has been saved from the University's budget axe. After two years of uncertainty, the department will now become the Division of Physical Education and will be partially funded by the athletic department. THE FUTURE OF the program was jeopardized two years ago when it was targeted for review-and possible elimination-as a result of the Univer- sity's five-year plan to reallocate $20 million in general fund monies. The school was originally slated for a 40 percent cut. Later it was recommen- ded for a 30 percent cut-or $300,000 of its $1 million budget. However, the program has been given a new lease on life at the Univer- sity. THROUGH complicated maneuvers,, the University's administration have managed to secure the funds which, were scheduled to have been cut from the athletic department. Even though the new Division of Physical 'Education will technically receive $300,000 less from the general fund, it will receive $300,000 from a special athletic department donation to. the general fund. According to Don Canham, the University's athletic director, the $300,000 will not harm the University's sport programs.

ACCORDING TO Billy Frye, vice president for academic affairs and University provost, the new program will be stronger. "We believe it will be a great im- provement technically," Frye said. that it's probably going to get us four or five years faster down the line," he said. The physical education program has long been labeled a "back door" into the University for athletes whose academic records are too poor to qualify them for admittance into the University's other colleges. It's just stupid to kill the department. If I thought we could do without it, I would've recommended closure. -Billy Frye University vice president According to Dee Edington, the division chairman, the athletic department's decision to funnel monies into the general fund is a fine way to handle the problem. "Yes, we were spared to some extent although that is not quite accurate," he said, adding that the department took cuts while it was part of the education school. EDINGTON SAID the new structure and money from the athletic depar- tment has helped the physical education program's progress. "I think Although Frye says the program will be a superior one, Canham said it won't be different-"they will have the same profs and all," he said. UNDER THE plan which was ap- proved in principle by the University regents at their July meeting and ex- pected to be approved formally at the September meeting, the academic programs will be rearranged.

They'll be squeezed into the basement of Angell Hall. The new CRISP area will not be able to accommodate more than two appoin- tment lines at a time. Assistant registrar Tom Karunas said that in the future, students should not come any earlier than 15 minutes before their assigned registration time. "STUDENTS have to realize that there is not enough room for them to come early to their registration appoin- tments - there's just no place to line them up to wait," Karunas said. Construction began in the middle of last June at a cost of $95,000. The new CRISP is located in the southwest cor- ner of Angell Hall where before there were the classrooms, the com- puter and communication sciences library; and a room which housed several computer terminals. Walls were knocked out, doors were per- manently shut, new doors were in- stalled, and bars were fastened to the floor of the basementrto control student line. lines.
