September. The committee will
consider a number of options, in-
cluding continuing the current
policy and abolishing honorary
degrees.
Committee members would not
comment on the Mandela degree or
the bylaw that prohibits him from
receiving the honorary degree.
Although the ad hoc committee
will make recommendations, only
the regents can change the bylaws
and the University's degree policy.
Hector Delgado, a member of the
Free South Africa Coordinating
Committee, said he has "doubts"
that the regents will change the
controversial bylaw.
DELGADO SAID regents
may be avoiding political pressure
by relying on the bylaw. "If the
bylaw is changed, everyone will be
watching to see how each regent
votes. This may cause regents who
privately oppose the Mandela degree
to vote in favor of it," Delgado
said.
Delgado, a sociology graduate
student, said the University admin-
istration can't avoid the Mandela
degree controversy by saying the
University is politically neutral.
"Not giving the degree makes just
as big a statement as giving the
degree," he said.
Vice President for Government
Relations Richard Kennedy, who is
a member of the group that selects
honorary degree recipients, said the
regents can make an exception
about giving a degree to someone
not present at the graduation
ceremony.
Kennedy said his committee,
chaired by University President
Harold Shapiro, "will consider"
Mandela for an honorary degree.
The committee has not yet met this
fall.

free bus service that runs every 30 minutes from 7 to 9:30 p.m. and 12:30
to 2 a.m. It runs every 20 minutes from 9:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m.
New routes confuse Nite Owl riders
(Continued from Page 1)
According to Milano, confusion
about the new routes resulted from
inadequate publicity. LSA senior
Carolyn Lanier, who works at the
Campus Information Center (CIC)
in the Union, said the center didn't
receive handout maps of the new
routes until the week after the
;hanges became effective.
Shortly after the expansion,
Lanier said she answered about 15
questions during her two-hour shift
tit CIC. ;She now averages about
five inquiries on the Nite Owl per
thift.
. "WHAT WE told them is,
We're sorry, but we don't have the
information-try calling transpor-
tation or the Sexual Assault Pre-
vention and Awareness Center,"
Lanier said.
Lanier, a self-described "veteran"
rider of Nite Owl, walked to her
house on Hill Street at 2 a.m. the
Sunday the schedule changed. She
missed the bus because she was
unaware that it stopped on the other
side of State Street instead of in
front of the Union.
Julie Steiner, director of the
Sexual Assault Prevention and
Awareness Center, said posters and
handouts showing the new routes
are being designed and will be
distributed to residence halls,
libraries, and almost all campus
buildings.
"We get calls. I feel terrible, I
wish it was all done," Steiner said.
"I think that we're getting close;
I'm hoping within a week."
LSA JUNIOR Mary Walker
"just happened" to hear about the
new routes; the southbound bus
now drops her off a block away
from her house off Hill Street.
"Before it seemed like you were
stranded. In winter, you're basically
stranded where you're at," Walker
said.
"I think it will reduce risk of
getting assaulted-that has to do
with being in the wrong place at
the wrong time. It's not like you
want to invite something like that,"
she added.
Milano said the most positive
feedback he's received about the
new routes is the inclusion of the
athletic campus. He also said the
Markley stop is "really popular."
"The only negative things I've
heard is that people weren't aware
one stop (Washtenaw and
Cambridge) was eliminated,"
Milano said. "Far outweighing was
the positive feedback on the
Athletic Campus."

commercial area to 16.1 acres,
allotting 7.85 acres for a short-stay
apartment complex, and providing
additional land buffers to set back
development and parking. The plan
would also close Nixon Road
between Huron Parkway and
Plymouth Road to provide
additional parking, decrease traffic
congestion, and provide a "green-
belt" between the University Center
and Plymouth malls.
Jerald Jernigan (R-Fourth Ward)
said he supported sending the
proposal back to the planning
commission so it could approve the
road and zoning changes before
naIl plan
sending it back to city council.
The revised plan drew more
support from residents and
businessmen than the original plan.
Most residents who objected to the
revised plan said that there was still
no need for additional shopping
malls in northeast Ann Arbor.
Kerrytown merchant Mary Riley
said she felt the town had no need
for more shopping centers. "It
seems to me that we can do better
than another shopping center," she
said.
The planning commission will
consider changes recommended by
the developer of the proposed
shopping mall.
Study shows A2 home

area. This area includes North
Campus housing for 2,000 married
students and six to eight apartment
buildings occupied by students,
according to the housing office.
Arnold Jacobson, a University
environmental health professor, said
one way to reduce high levels of
radon in the Ann Arbor house is to
open the windows and let the radon
out. He said radon gas is often a
problem in energy-efficient homes
because the gas enters and
homogenizes with the air in the
house and continues to recirculate
through the heat and cooling
systems.
NICK GROMICKO, manager
of the Pittsburgh radon project, said
participants entered the study by
answering an ad. For $12, they
received a radon kit which included
a canister-shaped radon detector and
a postage-paid return label. All
32,000 participants from across the
nation allowed the radon detectors
to sit for one week in their homes
University, attributed the recent
radon scare to improved measuring
techniques and energy efficiency. He
said radon has always been present
in the air, but shows itself only
under certain circumstances.
Griffin explained that radon
comes from radium. Because radium
has a half-life of only three and one-
half days there must be a significant
radium source for high levels of
radon to persist, he said. Griffing
said that if a house is well-
ventilated it may have a high radon
level one day and a very low one
the next day.
Griffin also said rock containing
radium is sometimes used to make
cement walls. If radon gas is
emitted from the walls, a special
paint can be used to prevent the gas
from escaping, he said.
