Salaries among professors, associate professors, and assistant professors increased 7.3 percent in the past year. Overall the University staff is earning roughly 92 percent of the salaries it earned 16 years ago (adjusted for inflation), according to Academe's "Annual Report on the Economic Status of the Profession." Most of the University's highest paid employees are in the medical profession, followed by executive of- ficers, deans, and sports. Fifty-seven of the 72 faculty members making over $100,000 are professors, assistant professors, researchers or deans of the medical school. None are women. ACCORDING to the University's Analysis of Salaries Paid to the University of Michigan Instructional Staff 1985-86, the minimum salary of a medical school professor is $43,850 and the maximum is $162,4000, com- pared to the minimum executive of- ficer salary of $70,000 with a maximum of $153,000. President Harold Shapiro's 9.3 per- cent salary boost, which increases his salary to $117,000, pales in com- parison to the $153,000 that George Zuidema, vice provost of medical af- fairs, took home last year. Vice President for Development A listing of the 1986 faculty salaries is available at The Michigan Daily, 420 Maynard St. for $2 each. and Communication, Jon Cosovich, is the third highest paid executive of- ficer, with a salary of $106,250.

''shreds*Huskers in Fiesta By BRAD MORGAN Special to the Daily tEMPE, Ariz. - Could it have en- ded any other way? In a fitting finish to a surprising season, Michigan's defense once again rose to the occasion as it had done all year, stifling the Nebraska Cornhuskers in the second half to lead the Wolverines to a 27-23 victory in the Fiesta Bowl on New Year's Day. THIS WAS a team that was sup- posed to go nowhere this year, to finish in the middle of the pack in the Big Ten. Instead, the win over Nebraska capped one of Bo Schem- bechler's best seasons at Michigan. The 10-1-1 record is the best since 1980, and the final No. 2 ranking in both the AP and UPI polls is the best ever. "At the beginning of the season, we were a long shot team," said a jubilant Schembechler after the game. "My only disappointment was not winning the (Big Ten) champion- ship. Even at that, I've enjoyed this team tremendously. This team has given me the most satisfaction I've ever had." The tenth win came harder than any of the previous nine. Michigan took the early lead on 42-yard Pat Moons field goal, but Nebraska's potent run- ning attack then took over and raced for two Cornhusker touchdowns and a 14-3 halftime lead. In the process, Nebraska managed to do what no team had done all year - push Michigan's defense all over the field and run its offense almost at will, scoring of 63 and 74-yard drives. "THEY MOVED the ball better than any team we played this year," said Schebechler. "Our defense's confidence was a little shot when they moved the ball so well." Mark Messner, who earned Defen- sive Player of the Game honors for his play on the defensive line, agreed with Schembechler. "We weren't shocked, but we were upset and mad that we let something like that happen," said the sophomore standout who finished with nine tackles. "Their offensive linemen weren't firing off the ball like we thought they would. They were more of a reading, pushing team. They wereI opening holes that were just big1 enough, and we weren't closing them fast enough." WHILE THE defense was struggling, the offense wasn't able to pick up the slack as it had the last1 three games. Jamie Morris rushed for 69 of his game-high 156 yards, but quarterback Jim Harbaugh was only1 five for twelve for 64 yards and was1 having trouble directing the offense.; After the early field goal, Michigan could get. no further than the Nebraska 42 in the first half. "In the beginning, we were trying to balance it out between running and passing to do what it takes to win," said Harbaugh, "but they shut off our passing game very well. I give them a lot of credit for that." It was obvious at halftime that Michigan would have to make some changes if they were going to win the game, but nobody was ready for what1 happened in the third quarter. On+ successive drives, Nebraska fumbled,1 had a punt blocked, fumbled again, and shanked a punt. With the Cor- nhuskers apparently suffering from heat stroke in the Arizona sun, the Wolverines turned the miscues into 24 points and a 27-14 lead. It was a dramatic a turn around as seen all year, and once again, it was the hard- hitting defense that deserved the credit. "AT THE half, we said 'We're a bet- ter team than them,"' said defensive back Garland Rivers. "We talked about it and then went out and played like we could play." It was that idea - play like Michigan - that Schembechler stressed in the locker room and that the players remembered. "We just made some adjustments," said Schembechler. "I didn't yell at them. I didn't give a speech - I'm no Knute Rockne," he growled in mock indignation. "He said get out and move the ball," said Morris, who broke several key long runs in the second half to earn offensive player of the game honors. "He told us to go out and play like Michigan. See THIRD, Page 11 anti-rape- By LAURA BISCHOFF The hiring committee for the University's rape awareness and prevention center announced yester- day that University alumna Julie Steiner will head the program, accor- ding to committee member Marvin Parnes. The center, which is still in the for- mative stages, will be open for business on Feb. 3 when Steiner starts work. ALTHOUGH the eleven-member hiring committee made up of faculty, students, and administrators has been considering candidates for the coor- dinator job since early October, Steiner has been "the candidate of choice since late fall" said Hal Korn of Counseling Services. "She has very impressive interper- sonal skills," Korn said, "the skills required to become a positive force on the campus." Steiner graduated from the University in the mid-'70s and has extensive experience in organizational work and women's issues. Currently she is a consultant for the Planned Parenthood national office in Washington, D.C. She has also worked for the American Civil Liber- ties Union, said Parnes. PARNES SAID he is pleased with the committee's selection. "I like her p rogram .. I think she will be a real activist with a lot of finesse and understan- ding of how to get things done." Steiner could not be reached for comment. Korn anticipates the center will start out slowly because it will take a while for Steiner to research campus safety issues, begin some education and awareness programming, and eventually do some rape victim coun- seling. The center will be located on the third floor of the Michigan Union in the Vice President for Student Ser- vices suite. Steiner's secretary will be located across the hall in coun- seling services, Korn said. A push for this rape awareness and prevention center began last February when about 30 students demonstrated in Vice President for Student Services Henry Johnson's of- fice and presented a list of demands for a safer campus. Johnson later presented a proposal for the center to the University executive officers. In May, a $75,000 grant for the cen- ter was approved along with parts of the original proposal. The hiring committee then decided what qualifications they would look for in a coordinator and began the search this fall. Supreme Court rules in favor of U' Freshmen applications up 13% By CHRISTY RIEDEL The U.S. Supreme Court unanimously ruled in favor of the University last month in its suit against Scott Ewing, a former student who was expelled from the Univer- sity's Inteflex program in 1981. The Court's decisie n reaffirms the autonomy of a uni, irsity, keeping judges out of ac,.demic decision- making. Although the court heard the case because it involved a question of due process, Justice Lewis Powell wrote in the court's concurring opinion that it was unfortunate the case was litigated in the lower courts in the first place. "JUDICIAL review of academic decisions, including those with respect to the admission or dismissal of students, is rarely appropriate, particularly where orderly ad- ministrative procedures are followed - as in this case," he said. Ewing, who, now attends the Chicago College of Osteopathy, enrolled in the six-year Inteflex program which grants both B.A. and M.D. degrees in 1975. In 1981, he com- pleted the necessary course work to See SUPREME, Page 6 By MARTHA SEVETSON As of Dec. 20, freshmen applications at the University were up 13 percent over the same time last year. Although the latest counts are not yet available, the Univerisity had received 7,159 applications for the 1986 fall term, com- pared to 6,328 in December 1984. "We're not sure what these numbers mean yet," said Cliff Sjogren, director of admissions. "We've had two years of substantiated increase in applications - it's premature to say we're going to go for a record-breaking year." The larger pool of freshmen applicants, according to Sjogren, has resulted in freshmen classes of higher capability. "The average SAT scores have increased by about 10 points, and the average class rank has edged up a point." THESE INCREASES are reflected in a greater degree of selectivity in the admissions process. According to Tom O'Rourke, a college counselor at Dix Hills High School in New York, "It's becoming more difficult for students to get in from this area. More students are receiving a 'no- decision' letter, which postpones decision on their ad- mission due to an increase in applications." Lance Erickson, associate director of undergraduate admissions, attributes the increase to heavy recruitment, recent favorable publicity on national television, and a popular new book which lists the University as one of the country's eight best public undergraduate universities. According to O'Rourke, however, this publicity is only part of the reason. "The institution can publish all kinds of public relations materials," he said, "but what it really comes down to is that the kids are learning from older brothers or neighbors that what they hear is true." MARK DOWNING, a senior at North Muskegon High School, applied in mid-September. "A representative told me that the earlier your application is, the better your chances would be," said Downing. "You're less likely to be wait-listed when they have nothing to compare your application to."
