'Page 2- The Michigan Daily - Tuesday, November 6, 1990 ENGLER Continued from page 1 into improving facilities and building new facilities if they keep further tuition increases at six percent or less," Wolf said. "Since the governor has been in office, funding for higher education has increased 82 percent," she added. However, compared to other states, Michigan's support for higher educa- tion ranks 43rd nationwide. Engler, if elected, has proposed -an increase in funding and a tighten- ng of inefficiencies in Michigan's higher education institutions. "Engler would help make the uni- versities more efficient by increasing funding and accessibility for any stu- dent who wants to attend an institute of higher education... Hewould maintain the autonomy of the university to provide courses that, students want," Truscott said. Truscott added that Engler would allocate 15 percent of the general revenue fund towards education. "As Senate Majority leader, Engler added over $115 million to higher education above Governor Blanchard's recommendation," Truscott said. Both candidates claim activism on environmental legislation, including support for the polluter- pay legislation which became law less than one month ago. The Governor has recently signed legislation protecting the Great Lakes. "The Governor was a strong advocate on Great Lakes protection. He spearheaded the Great Lakes Toxic control agreement." Wolf said. "Engler has a strong environmen- tal record that he is proud of. He has been active in the Senate in writing environmental legislation that is in place today," Truscott said Both campaigns see their candi- date's chances as excellent, but point to turnout as being the key factor in deciding the vote. LSA Dean addresses faculty by Julie Foster Daily Staff Reporter LSA faculty have already started working on some solutions proposed in the Report on the Undergraduate Experience, LSA Dean Edie Goldenberg said yesterday at a fac- ulty meeting. Follow-up committees are dis- cussing specific issues raised in the report which was compiled by the LSA Planning Committee, Goldenberg said. "The report is generating discus- sion, and that is it's primary pur- pose," Goldenberg said. The college has begun activities suggested in the report to improve undergraduate education: LSA is planning its own fundraisng drive. Individual departments are considering ways to encourage con- tact between students and faculty. i The first issue of a new fac- ulty newsletter on undergraduate edu- cation was distributed to the staff. "The first issue devoted a lot of space to the diversity requirement," Goldenberg said. Mary Ann Swain, interim vice president for Student Services, formed the University Council of Undergraduate Affairs "to bring to- gether all of the colleges who have undergraduates enrolled to discuss the issue," she said. Some faculty will be review- ing LSA literature sent to students. Goldenberg said they will "review them to see if there were important things omitted and whether we can do a better job being clear and more welcoming." Goldenberg also spoke to the fac- ulty about criticisms the report re- ceived. Some of the criticism came from "people who thought that the report represented a concrete plan." The "follow-on"' committees were formed to come up with direct pro- posals, she said. 'There is a strong suggestion that U of M not try to be what it is not- a small teaching institution' -Edie Goldenberg LSA Dean Others felt some of the goal.o were unrealistic. "There is a strong suggestion that U of M not try to be what it is not- a small teaching in- stitution," Goldenberg said. Despite the concerns, "there is great enthusiasm out there for re-fo- cusing our energy on the undergradu- ates," Goldenberg said. SENATE Continued from page 1 -of the life of a mother. He has tried to protect family planning," Kwal- wasser said. "Levin wants some adult in- rvolvement. He was opposed to direct parental consent because it was too narrow and required parental in- volvement not adult," Kwalwasser said. "He has concern with minors who do not have the assistance from some adult." "Schuette considers himself pro- life. He supports restrictions on abortion including parental consent," said Kraft. "He supports abortion in the cases of rape incest and in endan- gering the life of the mother." In terms of higher education, both candidates agree that increased funding is necessary, but they dis- agree on how to best go about achieving this goal. The Levin campaign sees Schuette's record on higher education as weak. "Congressman Schuette in 1985 voted to cut $5 billion re-au- thorized for higher education... Schuette in 1986 cut education ap- propriations which would cut $40 million in guaranteed student loans.., thenSenator has no record of credit on higher education funding," Kwalwasser said. In reference to this, Kraft said Schuette voted for a three percent in- crease for education funding but voted against a 10 percent increase. "Carl (Levin) himself voted against a higher amount," he added. Schuette supported tax legislation allowing deduction in interest paid on Pell Grant assets, Kraft added. Pell Grants are federal loans given as financial aid to university students. Both candidates say they are seri- ous about cleaning up the environ- ment. Levin points to the recent pas- sage of the Great Lakes Protection Act, which he says, highlights his- commitment to the environment. The law, which Levin originally sponsored, acts to identify and clean. up pollution in the Great Lakes and provide a specific time table to clean up 42 toxic hot-spots in the state. The Schuette campaign said he_ supported the legislation in the House. Schuette sees as one of his priori- ties to push legislation for Michi- gan. "Michigan itself does not get representation. Michigan ranks dead- last in getting funds back to the state. Bill works well with and knows President Bush. Bill can get more done for Michigan," Kraft said. The Levin campaign thinks an agenda needs to be established before acting. "Our priority is to get our priorities straight. We have been un- derfunding what we need to make the country strong... we have under- funded education, we need to clean the environment; we need to win the war on drugs..." Kwalwasser said.

"(Dudley) should have made the attempt to ask other assembly mem- bers to join the committee," Cosnowski said. At last week's assembly meeting, Dudley announced he would estab- lish a Space Allocations Committee for the purpose of developing guide- lines on the use of office space. Many groups, including the Latin American Solidarity Committee (LASC), Gay Liberation, Women Against Nuclear Defense (WAND), and the Undergraduate English Association were not allocated space because a room investigation by Dudley revealed fire hazards or poor What promises to have more spandex than the CCRB, more ex- citement than the second floor of the UGLi, and more dancing than the Nectarine Ballroom? As Downtown Julie Brown might say, "Wubba, wubba, wubba, the Club MTV Dance Party will be a throwdown time at the Union Ball- room, child." As part of the college tour, six of the Club MTV dancers will be host- ing a dance party from 8-10 p.m. tonight. The highlight of the evening will be a dance competition in search of the University's funkiest female and male dancer. The winners will be flown to New York City to appear on Club MTV taped live at the Palladium night club. upkeep of their offices. "If I took the fire marshal up there, he'd shut the place down," Dudley said. Van Valey said groups whose office requests were denied because they posed a fire hazard should be allocated space because the assem- bly had not made it clear to organi- zations what was required for up- keep. "We can't take people's offices away because we're not explicit about rules," she said. However, Dudley cited a memo dated Oct. 16, 1989 from MSA to student groups, stating that the assembly reserved the right to check offices to ensure they were being "used appropriately." "If not, cancellation of office space will occur," the memo states. It does not address what MSA con- siders appropriate use. Michigan was selected as one of ten universities Club MTV will visit. Last July, Club MTV selected LSA senior and former UAC mem- ber Kevin Sandler to be their college representative for organizing the en- tire event. "If you love watching Club MTV and you love to dance, this is the place to go. It's a big dance party," Sandler said. Mark Romano, MTV coordinator of special markets, is enthusiastic about bringing his "professional" program to the campus. "It's on the edge as far as club music goes. Students are excited be- cause MTV's part of their genera- tion. They'll enjoy a non-alcoholic party that's a sober good time," Romano said. LSA sophomore and UAC Spe- cial Promotions Chair Wendy Shanker said the evening of dancing with Club MTV will give students a break from studying. "This is U of M's chance for a timely spotlight and this ain't no bar, mitzvah. It's a chance to get down, get funky and have a blast! I know there's a Stats exam on Wednesday. Just blow it off because the beat goes on!" Shanker said. LSA junior Laurie Jacobson is not attending the Club MTV party with the intent of winning, however she is looking forward to dancing with other good dancers. "I want to see people do cool ! moves. And it's a great stress re- liever before my test," she said. Students who forego tomorrow night's festivities will be able to catch a glimpse of the MTV dancers today on the Diag at noon. Michigamua seeks MSA recognition I by Julie Foster Daily Staff Reporter Members of the Minority Affairs, Commission (MAC) may oppose recognition of Michigamua - an all-male honor society - at the Michigan Student Assembly meet- ing tonight. Last year, MAC and Michigamua resolved a long-standing dispute con- cerning the group's controversial Na- tive American initiation rites by agreeing that Michigamua remove all references to the culture in its ceremonies and activities. Michigamua President Paul Mur- phy said the group has abandoned the rituals and will base new traditions on Michigan. However, Harris said that a pro- vision in the original agreement re- quired both groups to meet again to confirm the discontinuance of the rituals. Members of MAC went to a Michigamua meeting last night to remind the organization that another meeting is still required.
