The Michigan Daily - Tuesday, November 29, 1988 - Page 5 Colleague deceased s praise 'U' prof. BY KRISTINE LALONDE A former colleague of retired University Urban Planning Prof. Norbert Gorwic, who died earlier this month, described him as a "born teacher." Gorwic, who retired in 1981 after a career in both industry and academia, died Nov. 12 in his Ann Arbor home at the age of 77. "That's really what he was first and foremost - a teacher. In that capacity he was the best that I've known in the field (of urban plan- ning)." said Prof. Gerald Crane, Gorwic's fellow professor and former business partner. Crane said Gorwic delivered his twice-weekly lectures without notes. "He was animated... a bit of an ac- tor," he said. "His lectures were lively." He said some students took Gor- wic's class twice and that professors even enrolled. "A very strong social conscience pervaded everything he said and did," Crane said. He had a great "concern for underprivileged minorities. He was liberal with a capital 'L'." One of his former students, U.S. Representative from Ohio Marcy Kaptur (D-Toledo), also held Gorwic in high esteem. "The academic community has lost one of its brightest lights. Professor Gorwic 'Professor Gorwic luminated the path of countless students through his many years of teach- ing.' - Marcy Kaptur, Ohio Representative to U.S. Congress illuminated the path of countless students through his many years of teaching, including my own." "His memory will for many years inspire efforts of those who seek to make a difference in a life committed to educating others," she said. Richard Little, an urban planner and housing specialist with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, also felt Gorwic's in- fluence. "He had a very profound impact on me as a student and was probably the seminal influence in my career choice." He said Gorwic centered discus- sions around slides taken during his travels. "He was a mixture of the professorial and the political as well as the theatrical," he said. "He was an original." "He really motivated us to think of the ethical aspect of (urban) plan- ning," Little added. Little said he, Gorwic, and Kaptur had helped to start a University ur- ban planning society to keep alumni involved with the school and fellow alumni. Gorwic joined the staff of the University's College of Architecture and Urban Planning in 1968. He was appointed to the University's Insti- tute for Environmental Quality advisory committee in 1970. He served as acting chair of the U-M Department of Urban Planning in 1973-74. jett y /7w G aca Lrit J e.1?toaCfrreU fe ,r z . /,i ttJ at w1loa i -Zoaa 1eeiz pipippipprPrp" I / //r .1 .' /.rr~.,yr' tl, r , r 'J r,,rr,, /, ''"r r 1 I', l ('1ff'', //// !Ht. , 1+ ,';( It t r" ;, I I' 'I I Zenith's battery powered SuperSport.

"(Robert) thought the baby really was (his wife's). We all thought she was pregnant... she was getting big," Edmundson said. She added that Sharon kept going to Mott hospital because of her pregnancy. "We did wonder why her husband never went with her, and when they came in the house (with the baby) we knew it wasn't hers," Edmundson said.

SACUA Continued from Page 1 the policy and suggest changes to the administration. "The faculty is the University. Issues that are core to the faculty are core to the University, far more than administrative interests. We want the policy to work, with substantial faculty support," said SACUA member Gayl Ness, a professor of sociology. "(The administration) must understand and identify faculty con- cerns," even if it doesn't change the policy, Ness said. He also stressed the importance of the committee having close contact with the administration. English Prof. Thomas Lenaghan, vice-chair of SACUA, said the committee is important because many faculty members feel "they have not been involved in a basic matter of faculty concern." Lenaghan added that during the past few months, the administration has made many modificatinns haed CORNER OF STATE AND HILL 994-4040 ALL YOU CAN EAT PIZZA Every TUESDAY and WEDNESDAY $3.75 6:00p.m. to 9:00 p.m. OPEN HOUSE Good Things Come In BIG Packages COME VISIT US!
