student fee
By AMY MINDELL
The Michigan Student Assembly is
seeking to increase the money it
eceives from students through man-
d~tory tuition assessments, raising the
fee from $4.75 to $5.07.
)SA last night decided to put a
question on next month's election ballot
that will help to determine whether or
not students want to continue suppor-
ting MSA through the mandatory
assessments.
IN ADDITION to funding MSA, the
mandatory fees also support Student
Legal Services, the Ann Arbor Tennan-
tg' Union, and ADVICE a course
evaluation program.
The question, dubbed Proposal A,
allows for inflationary increases. If
passed, it will only incorporate ad- a
ditional programs after they are accep-
ted by student voters.
Ballot question B, also accepted by #
the Assembly, asks if students want all
mandatory tuition fees assessments to
be fully disclosed on students' tuition
statements. The fees not disclosed on Apartm ent BIa

Wall Street merger wiz
offers words of advice
By-NADINE LAVAGNINO
Bruce Wasserstein could have han-
dled million-dollar deals in the nation's
financial district yesterday. Instead he
spoke to a group of University students
about corporate mergers and career
opportunities on Wall Street.
Wasserstein, a University alumnus,.
was invited by the A. Alfred Taubman
Program in American Institutions and
addressed a group of about 50 students
in the Michigan's Union's Kuenzel
Room.
WASSERSTEIN is codirector of the
mergers and acquisitions team at New
York's First Boston Corporation. In the
past five years the team has handled
five of the largest corporate mergers in
American business history.'
They include those of American
Natural Resources and Costal; Getty
Oil and Texaco; Marathon and U.S.
Steel; DuPont and Conoco; and Allied,
Bendix, and Martin Marietta.
The path that Wasserstein followed to
success on Wall Street was not a
straight line. At the age of 16 he entered
the University where he studied jour-
nalism.
WHILE AT the University he took a
wide variety of classes that he said
piqued his curiosity. "People in the
business world are not just looking for a
person who graduated from school with
a good grade poiint average - they
want a well rounded-person who knows
what is happening in the world.
"They are looking for people who can
think around the question, not just be
analytical."
AFTER college, Wasserstein entered
Harvard Law School and graduated
with a duel degree in law and business.
But before he landed his job on Wall
Street, he studied economics at Cam-
bridge University in London on a Knox
Travelling fellowship and wrote for
Forbes Magazine.
He said Wall Street firms hire a lot of
people with legal experience, but he
stresses that the greater and more
varied one's experience is, the better
chance they have of getting a job.
"We try to get a wide variety of
people to create a mix. This way people
can learn from each other," Wasser-
stein said.
Wasserstein advises students to get
as much practical experience as
possible.
Often debates arise as to whether ex-
perience should be received from a
large or a small firm. 'The deciding
factor should be which firm offers the
most training in your future area of in-
terest," Wasserstein said.
"If you feel lost in a firm you
shouldn't be there," Wasserstein said.

sideney
University in Tallahassee has been
un- whittled down to three - including
&M NiaratSudarkasa, a University
associate vice president for academic
affairs.
The number of contenders dropped to
three when Wilbert Lemelle, an admin-
istrator at the State University of New
York system, dropped out of the runni-
ng Monday, according to Steve McCar-
thur, a vice chancellor at Florida's
public universities.
MCCARTHUR said Sudarkasa's
chances for the job are good.
"Sudarkasa had a good interview.
It's clear from articles here, she
has one of the best interviews but she's
not necessarily the leading contender."
Sudarkasa, the University ad-
ministrator in charge of minority
programs, would not comment on her
chances of winning the position at the
predominantly black college.
THE REMAINING two candidates
are Charles Walker, pharmacy dean at
Florida A&M, and Frederick Hum-
pheries, president of Tennessee State
University.

On the state level, five financial aid
bills were discussed yesterday in the
Committee of Colleges and Univer-
sities.
The five proposals debated were the
governor's recommendation to im-
plement a $5 million work study
program, create a grant for part time
independent students with $2 million in
state funds, add $8 million to the com-
petitive scholarship, supply $170,000 for
the financial aid hotline, and eliminate
the Educational Opportunity Grant.
