There were exceptions, of course.
One protester said a history professor

the comment "Are you willing to

to go to the curriculum meeting in the

"Sometimes they're irate," Papish
said of the inquirers, "But I say,
'Here's the will - what can wedo?"
Papish speculated that Stone was
thinking of women who had to battle
financial and social barriers to go into
research when she set up the
fellowship.
"AT THE TIME, even more so than
now, it was financially difficult for un-
married female scholars to devote
themselves to research," Papish said.
"(Stone) must have felt that unmarried
women between 25 and 35 were the ones
who needed help."
The 1984 Mary Isabel Sibley
Fellowship went to Maura Daly, a post-
doctoral student at Notre Dame, who
says the restrictions "didn't bother me
at all, since it was perfect for me."
The fellowship has allowed Daly to
take a leave of absence from her
teaching position at Notre Dame in or-
der to write a book about a French
philosopher. She said she saw a bulletin
board announcement publicizing the
fellowship and decided to apply.
"THE LESS well-known the scholar-
ship is, the better," Daly said.
Scholarships like Daly's may not be
well publicized, but they aren't im-
possible to find if one is willing to spend
a day browsing through books con-
taining lists of private funding sources.
Such books can be found in the
Graduate Library, the Undergraduate
Library, and the Office of Career Plan-
ning and Placement.
Money is available for the average
undergraduate students, though the
scholarship provider usually stipulates
that a student have a related interest.
The National Rifle Association, for
example, doles out scholarships to
students who are interested in resear-
ching hunter safety or sports medicine.
And the International Atlantic Salmon
Foundation will give up to $3,000, but
asks that the recipient be a North
American resident "seeking to improve
their knowledge or skills in Atlantic
salmon biology, management, or
related fields."
BUT A LARGE number of the grants
listed are targeted exclusively at post
graduate and older students.
The trick here again is to seek out the
scholarships. The Simmons School of
Embalming and Mortuary Science in
Syracuse, New York, for instance,
rarely advertises its grants in high
schools because most mortuary science
students are in their late 20s, according
to Janece Lafferty, an instructor at the
school.
Rather than advertise, she said
school administrators wait for in-
terested students to inquire. Mortuary
science, she added, "is a career choice
made mostly by people more mature -
as you can imagine."

The University of Michigan believes that
educational and employment decisions should be
based on individuals' abilities and qualifications
and should not be based on irrelevant factors or
personal characteristics which have no connection
with academic abilities or job performance.
Among the traditional factors which are generally
"irelevant" are race, sex, religion, and national
origin. It is the policy of The University of
Michigan that an individual's sexual orientation be
treated in the same manner. Such a policy ensures
that only relevant factors are considered and that
equitable and consistent standards of conduct and
penformance are applied.
Any University of Michigan employee having
a complaint of discrimination because of sexual
orientation should notify her/his immediate
supervisor or the Staff and Union Relations Office
in the appropriate personnel service center. A
student should notify the Affirmative Action
Coordinator in her/his school or college or the
Ombudsperson in the Office of the Vice President
for Student Services. At any time, a student or
employee niay call the Affirmative Action Office
or the Human Sexuality Office for counseling and
advice.
It should be noted that this policy does not
apply to the University's relationships with outside
organizations, including the federal government,
the military, and ROIC.
To insure that this policy is known, understood, and implemented
throughout the University, a U-M Task Force on Sexual Orientation
was created recently by the president with twenty members
appointed from the University community.
Students, faculty, and staff members
may communicate any information,
ideas, or proposals
on how to prevent discrimination on
the basis of sexual orientation at.
The University of Michigan, as follows:
You may communicate with the U-M Task Force on Sexual
Orientation by letter, informal note, or telephone call to Brian
Clapham, 764-3423, Affirmative Action Office, 108 Fleming Building;
or to Laura Sanders and Jim Toy, 763-4186, Human Sexuality Office,
3116-3118 Michigan Union. Your ideas may be presented anonymously.
