Residents were told that the bathrooms, now covered with plastic and tape, are safe to use. ' Students question housing offic ials about asbso By BRIAN BONET Most members of the Senate Advisory Committee of University Affairs (SACUA) agreed yesterday that a document concerning academic misconduct of faculty members is an improvement on a 1984 report, but not yet ready to be considered for University policy The update, titled "Maintaining the Integrity of Scholarship," was written by the office of University Vice President for Research Linda Wilson. The report and update suggests procedures to be used if any University research is suspected of being untruthful and includes the standards by which integrity could be judged. SACUA members found fault with the draft, saying that it could force an accused researcher to face two formal investigations. An investigation is required within the current draft, and a second investigation is mandated by University Board of Regents bylaw 5.09. SACUA members also criticized the document because they say it doesn't assume the innocence of the accused. "YOU DON'T get the feeling that the person has a chance of being innocent," said SACUA president William Stebbins, "It's not well-written in that aspect. "If we could change the wording to show that it is protecting the individual in question, then maybe we can help it," he added. Charles Lehmann, a professor of education, agreed. "The language is unclear. It seems to protect the University." Lehmann said the document portrays "the attitude that you are guilty until proven innocent." Stebbins said that there is a "real urgency" to get a report out on academic misconduct because the federal government is pressuring universities nationwide to establish such rules. SACUA members also said the report must clarify when accused parties should be informed of accusations against them. Stebbins said the accused should be informed immediately after the alleged crime. Each SACUA member seemed to agree with his statement. "The person should know as soon as the accusations are voiced," said Stebbins. Although most members viewed the new, shorter draft as an improvement, they failed to agree on its effectiveness. BLOOM COUNTY f OH S.. Watch foritn For example, social work Prof. Beth Reed said although the draft is better than the original draft, she feels limited by it because it is shorter and is therefore less comprehensive. (Continued from Page 1) San Facon said a "negative air machine" monitors the asbestos level in the air of each bathroom during removal. He said 11 of the Lloyd bathrooms have been studied and meet the University's standard, which are stricter than state and federal regulations. He said, however, that the air in one of the bathrooms registered very high levels of asbestos because a worker for the hired agency left the crawl- space door open, and some asbestos particles escaped into the air. Monroe said asbestos was not hazardous elsewhere in the building, such as inside radiators. He explained that asbestos only poses a threat when it chips and gets into the air. Monroe said, for example, that exposed asbestos-covered pipes in Mosher-Jordan Hall have become dangerous because students kick, hit, or hang clothes on the pipes, causing the asbestos to chip. SanFacon said removal takes one to one and one-half days per restroom and estimated the procedure will continue "a few more weeks." He added that asbestos is present in about 75 percent of all campus buildings. FOOD Buys Students cram campus computer centers (Continued from Page 1) the hours for the end of the semester and our eventual goal is to get enough high-quality access to have one computer for every 15 students in the University.". Deb Masten, a computing center consultant, said that, in the meantime, longer hours will be instituted beginning Dec. . Fo . example, the School of Public Health, which is currently open 87 hours a week, will be open108 hours a week, she said. WHILE MANY people waited at the UNYN and UGLi Sunday night, only seven people waited for computers at the School of Nursing in the North Ingalls Building. "Students would be better to take the time to go to the centers that are not being used even if they are not as centrally located," Mayer suggested. Barry y. .bagel s place 812 S. State St. ph. 994-1300 (also at Westgate Shopping Center ph. 66-BAGEL) However, students waiting at the UGLi computer center yesterday said there are enough computers but not enough hours. "The University spent a lot of money to have 25 brand new computers put into the West Engineering building, but the center is only open from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., Monday through Friday," said LSA junior Stephen Levy. There are 812 terminals open to the public, excluding the 300 terminals reserved for business and engineering students. There are currently 429 Macintosh, 265 Zenith, and 118 other computers including Ontel, Decwriters, and Visual 550s (graphic writers). This number has increased by 600 in the last year, according to Masten. ALL University students pay a $100 computer fee each term to use those computers. Business and engineering students pay an additional mandatory $50 fee. "By the beginning of Fall '87 term we want to try to get that them. Computers use is constantly reevaluated, officials say. For example, when the UGLi opened with only Zenith computers, COMPUTER ROOMS - Angell Hall Rm. 225 + Art& Architecture Library Rm. 2106 -Dent School Rm.

Although residence halls also have computers, only residents can use them because the Housing Division put in a lot of money to open, operate, and remodel the stations, according to Masten. While many students wait in line for Macintoshes, students who use Zenith computers don't contend with the long waits. "I only use Zenith and I can come any time of the day with a one- or 20-page paper and not worry about missing a deadline because I never have to wait," said LSA senior Larry Emmons. Many students wonder why the University does not increase the number of Macintoshes, and decrease Zeniths. Masten says there are "educational applications" for Zeniths and faculty members use student patterns showed a need for more Macintosh computers on campus. Currently 24 Macintoshes are in the UGLi. Van Houweling said that students needs are monitored and computer use is constantly being re-evaluated. The computer expansion program is on schedule, he said. "We would be able to have more work stations but we have run out of good space," said Van Houweling. "The cost to rennovate the space available is very expensive."
