2 -- The Michigan Daily - Friday, December 10, 1993 HOLIDAY Continued from page 1 in months, some have not been home in years. First-year law student Jeff Butler said he has returned to his hometown of Helena, Mont., but once in the past three years. Butler said the work he did in New York between his undergraduate edu- cation and law school prevented him from returning home for the holidays. He said he has seen his parents elsewhere, but he has not seen his sister's children-in a few years and looks forward to spending Christmas watching them open presents from Santa Claus. He will be staying with his mother during the break; his parents recently divorced. "It's a little strange," Butler said. Engineering junior Michael Weinstein said he will be returning home to Las Vegas, Nev., for the first time to spend the break with his mother. Weinstein said he spent time during Thanksgiving with his father in Miami, Fla. While he said he has nothing spe- cial planned, he, his mother and his grandmother will spend New Year's Eve celebrating Weinstein's 21st birthday gambling in the heart of Las Vegas. Weinstein said he has been prac- ticing gambling for a while, playing poker using nickels and quarters with his father. He said he now wants to advance to casino-level poker, slot machines and blackjack tables. After a night of cashing in, Weinstein will relax and watch the bowl games. He said he has plans on "Michigan winning big." As sugarplums, finished exams and cheers of "welcome home" begin to dance in the heads of University students, students are becoming antsy. "It's worth waiting for," Yuan said. THE JOY OF HOLIDAY MUSIC I Mal - - 1 II 0 0 wn 3@@ ANASTASIA BANICKI/Dally Annie Ross sings Hanukkah songs and plays piano in the University Hospitals lobby.

Those professors in the (0-3) range are most likely those individuals who have es- tablished reputations elsewhere. ... When a university hires a tenured professor, it usually looks for the best one available," he said. Meanwhile, the median salary for every category of professors rigidly follows the trend of decreased pay with longer employment. Once again, professors working at the University for less than three years have the highest median salaries, with half making more than $97,150. Professors who have been at the University the longest have the low- est median salaries. One half of these professors make less than $71,840. Griffin, however, could not ex- plain why professors in the interme- diate categories still make more money than their peers who have worked at the University the long- est. For example, professors who have worked at the University between 10 REFORM PLAN Continued from page 1 James Agee (D-Muskegon). "This answers none of the questions about transportation. This does not level the playing field." Democrats have raised similar objections to Engler's plan. It would create a statewide system that would let students go to any public school in Michigan. Districts, however, could opt out of the plan. Under the school aid bill, districts that now spend less than $5,000 per and 15 years have a mean salary of $89,260, averaging $11,500 more than professors employed by the Univer- sity for more than 30 years. The me- dian salaries for those same two cat- egories are $84,970 and $71,840, re- spectively, and mark a $13,130 dis- crepancy in pay figures. "Those figures are surprising," Griffin said. Susan Rasmussen, planning of- ficer at the Office of Affirmative Ac- tion, refers to this trend of lower pay for professors who have worked at the University longer as an example of "salary compression." "Salary compression occurs when the length of service is not dependent upon salary pay," she said. "Many professors are hired now with salaries that were unheard of years ago." She also said hiring salaries for professors are increasing at a faster rate than pay raises. "People are often hired now with salaries that other professors reached only after many years of instruction," she.said. "Salary compression is not neces- sarily a good thing," she said. "It tends to undermine morale among faculty." pupil would be brought up to the level in three to five years. Engler's plan would have guaranteed each district $4,500 per student starting next fall. Limited millage to increase the state grant would be allowed, but only on the intermediate school district level.' Money raised within an ISD would be distributed only to those school districts where voters approved a higher millage. ISDs are regional school districts that provide specialized services such as special education, which are too costly for an individual school dis- trict. 9 The Michigan Daily (ISSN 0745-967) is published Monday through Friday during the fall and winter terms by students at the University of Michigan.
