Computer
r plan
nears
completion

By GEORGE KOKKINES
The University's goal to install 127
computer stations in nine residence
halls by March of this year is behind
schedule due to construction delays.
To day 115 of the stations are in place.
The project is part of a plan to in-
stall 1,500 work stations around cam-
pus within three years. It supplemen-
ts the 500 Michigan Terminal System
(MTS) workstations already
operating in other University
buildings, such as the Union, Angell
Hall, East Engineering, and several
libraries.
THE University Board of Regents
approved the plan last September and

allocated a $2.8 million annual budget.
Students contribute through the man-
datory computer fee of $50 this term
and $100 per term thereafter.
The nine residence halls with work
stations include Fletcher, Oxford
Housing, Baits Housing, South Quad,
Bursley, Markley, Mosher-Jordan,
Alice Lloyd, and Stockwell.
Twenty terminals are scheduled to
be in place in West Quad in the spring
and workstations in East Quad and
Couzens are scheduled for completion
this fall.
ASSISTANT Housing Director Ruth
Addis said the project is designed to
"reach students in the dorms. and

make them more computer literate."
Greg Marks, University deputy vice
provost for information technology
said the dormitory installations are
geared toward making computers
more accessible to students,
especially women who need to use
them at night.
To teach students how to use com-
puters the housing division has hired
10 trainers. The trainers have
scheduled classes on how to use word
processors. One such seminar was
already held at Markley.
Glenn Clark, an LSA senior and
computer trainer at Bursley, said
"the students are reacting favorably
to the help the trainers give and have

many questions."
ADDIS SAID enough money was
allocated to allow the work stations to
operate 52 hours a week. "It is up to
the individual residence halls to set
specific hours," she said.
Brian Capoccia, an engineering
freshman, who frequents the Markley
computer center said he wished the
center would stay open later than
midnight. Students working on papers
echoed Capoccia's complaint.
In addition to computers, software
such as MacWrite and MacDraw will
be available for checkout at the
residence halls.
Some students expressed concern
that noise generated from the center

would be disruptive. "We're concer-
ned about the noise levels and the
number of hours the center would
operate. The wall separating the co-
mputer center from our room is only a
temporary wall," said John Van
Tiem, an LSA freshman.
But Addis said the center will be
soundproof. Most resident hall
stations, excluding Fletcher, Couzens,
Stockwell, and West Quad are
removed from residence corridors.
"The students seem to like the new
computer sites," Addis said.
"Although not overly crowded, the
workstations are being used every
night."

School of Education

By STEVEN HERZ
University School of Education
Dean Carl Berger predicted the
school will eventually adopt a
proposal to restructure teaching
degree requirements and force many
educators to complete graduate work.
Berger did not set a time table for
the changes, which he advocated as a
member of the Holmes Group, a
national organization of 40 University
education deans.
IN A recent report entitled
"Tomorrow's Teachers," group
members proposed setting up
categories for educators: "Career
professionals," "professional
teachers," and "Instructors."

"Career Professionals," according to
Berger, would be required to com-
plete both undergraduate and
graduate work and show "proven ex-
cellence" on proficiency exams given
at various stages of their careers.
Currently, education students are
only required to take a two year un-
dergraduate program that gives them
a certificate they can use to teach
elementary or secondary school.
The new plan's second category,
however, would also produce instruc-
tors who have completed un-
dergraduate and graduate work.
These teachers, called
"professionals," would comprise the
bulk of the teaching force, and could


may chang
eventually move up if they score high
enough on proficiency exams.
"INSTRUCTORS" would have the
same undergraduate credentials as
today's teachers. This group, Berger
says, would help ease an upcoming
national teacher shortage caused by a
high turnover rate.
Education school student Tom
Marx said he adamently opposes the
stratification plan because it will keep
students in the classroom longer,
causing severe financial burdens.
"Most apprentices in other fields
get paid," said Marx, who asserted;
that teachers must receive payments
for the plan to work.
Marx wondered where the educaton

teaching degree requirements

school will get money for the new
plan. "Maybe they should dismantle a
Trident submarine," he said, adding
that "it'll be a great day when the
schools have all the books and the air
force has to hold bake sales."
Berger agreed that finding more
money - he could not estimate how
much - to implement the program
would prove difficult.
"THE PRESIDENT and the vice
president have said we have limited
funds .., and as you know federal funs
for student loans are being cut," he
said.
The School of Education has
already endured a financial squeeze
caused by the University's five-year

-U1

plan, which reallocated funds to
higher priority units such as
engineering. The $20 million funding
cut has lowered the number of
education school classes to 170 from a
previous high of 485.
When and if the new program is im-
plemented, it will produce three main
effects, according to Berger.
* Salaries will go up because
qualified teachers will be sought after
by the better schools which pay more.
* The plan will provide a career
ladder for teachers, many of whom
will not be forced to move into ad-
ministrative positions. Those who
have reached the "Career

Professional" level will be qualified
enough to vary their classes, and
* More qualified teachers will stay
in the profession instead of moving in-
to administrative positions.
Berger was not as interested in
another key part of the report that
called for education schools to place
greater emphasis on liberal arts cour-
ses.
"We encourage our students to get
their degrees in Math, Science, in
their own disciplines," Berger said.
He attributed this philosophy to the
college's decreasing number of cour-
ses.

":University employing highest number of women senior faculty

based her comments on information
received from other schools after her
report was prepared.
The black percentage of the Univer-
sity's senior faculty now stands at 2.5
percent. At the assistant professor
level, blacks stand at 4.5 percent.
. ACCORDING TO Nordby, search
commitees and administrators
recruiting black faculty have heavily
relied on several areas of the Univer-
sity that "recruit like magnets
because of their already established
and reputable black faculty."

Sociology, psychology, social work,
and denistry are some of these
areas, she added.
Although the affirmative action
report, covers all areas of instruc-
tional and non-instructioal em-
ployment, Nordy said "there's a lot of
emphasis upon faculty because they

are a core of the University."
The increase in female senior
faculty was not without its cost to the
percentage of assistant female
professors, which is at 27.9 percent,
its lowest level in nine years.
This is not a grave concern to Nor-
dby, though. "If we discover that we

are not utilizing an available pool, we
set ourselves a goal that usually ob-
tains progress," she said.
Nordby also noted that a significant
number of women have been appoin-
ted to some of the University's highest
posts in the past year. They included
Vice President for Research, Linda

Wilson, School of Art Dean Mar-
jorie Levy, and Lynn Conway, an
associate dean in the College of
Enginerering.
In the professional non-faculty
group there were two notable
changes. The number of Asian em-

ployees increased from 4 to 4.6 per-
cent, while Hispanic professional non-
faculty employees increased from .6
to .9 percent. Black women and em-
ployees in this group decreased
slightly in percentage.

Council releases emergency procedures*

(Continued from Page 1)
Previous code proposals put forth
by the administration and other
University Councils gave the Univer-
sity the power to punish students in all
cases of civil disobedience, and was
one of the main points of opposition
used by students opposing the code.
The emergency procedures, the
draft says, are intended to "provide a
rational and human means for protec-
ting members of the University com-
munity from violent acts, including
arson.
"THE INTENT is not to punish
those who come under the jursidiction
of such procedures."
The University would be able to, in
effect, suspend students who are ac-

cused of committing a violent crime.
The students would have the right to
appeal.
These punishments, which range
from counseling to barring contact
with others and from University
buildings, would last a maximum of 14
days.
Within that time, councilmembers
said, the University would have to
begin a hearing to decide whether
punishments should be continued.
A four member hearing board -
made up of two students, one faculty
member, and one University ad-
ministrator - would have the power
to impose sanctions for a maximum of
another 14 weeks. The University
could ask the board to meet again af-
ter that tome to discuss extending

punishments another 14 weeks.
These limited sanctions address
student concerns about the University
being able to expel a student for a non-
academic crime. Studetns had been
concerned about the University being
able to remove students who were
politically active.
The University, however, could im-
pose sanctions that would be the
equivalent of a suspension.

Tou Beta Pi, the national engineering honor society, was founded to mark
in a fitting manner those who have conferred honor upon their Alma Mater by
distinguished scholarship and exemplary character as students in engineering,
or by their attainmen'ts as alumni in the field of engineering, and to foster a
spirit of liberal culture in engineering colleges.
The Michigan Gamma Chapter of Tou Beta Pi is celebrating its Eightieth
Anniversary this year. During these post years, Michigan Gamma has grown to be
one of the largest Tou Beta Pi chapters in the nation.
We, the officers and faculty advisors of the Michigan Gamma Chapter of
Tou Beta Pi, wish to congratulate the following people who have achieved our
high standards and have successfully completed the initiation rituals, thereby
becoming active members of Tau Beta Pi:
