2 - The Michigan Daily - Monday, March 28, 1994 UGLI Continued from page 1 The entire two-year project will conclude in spring 1995. The third and fourth floors will become the new Science Library. Several departmental libraries cur- rently scattered around campus will be consolidated at the UGLi. The chemistry, natural science, physics and mathematics libraries will all be moved to the UGLi in the future. "It's good they're expanding the library - making it a lot larger and introducing new assets and different things to the library," Horne said. "Maybe it won't be so difficult to locate books if they're not in all dif- ferent places around campus," Zuschlag said. "It would be nice to do my American culture reading and go right around the corner to do my phi- losophy reading." The UGLi renovation will cost $10 million. "I know it's ungodly expensive and it seems like they could use that money to give us more access to pro- fessors instead of a facelift for the building," Zuschlag said. "It probably won'tbe quite as ugly as it was before, and that's a benefit in one way or another," she added. In the absence of any structural damage to the building, Zuschlag said the project seemed like a waste. "The building was due for a major renovation," MacAdam said. "It's over 30 years old." MacAdam said more space had to be added to the building to be able to consolidate departmental libraries.' The University worked with ar- chitects and interior designers in plan- ning the renovation, using input from student UGLi employees and the library's suggestion box. MINORITIES Continued from page ± response from Doris Estep, the sec- retary to the presidential selection committee, Nordby listed the follow- ing: Of the original pool of 240, no breakdown was given. (In records reviewed by the Daily, only 26, or about 8 percent were women and 11, or about 4.6 percent were minori- ties). N Of the first cut to 138 names, 20 were women (14.5 percent) and 9 were minorities (6.5 percent). * On the second cut to 72 names, 14 were women (19.4 percent) and five (6.9 percent) were minorities. * On the third cut to 42 names, six were women (14.2 percent) and two minorities (4.8 percent). 0 On the 27 pre-interview candi- dates, two woman (7.4 percent) and three minorities (11 percent) Under intense pressure, Massey had been returned to the list. Nordby's office reviewed all per- sonnel search for high-ranking ad- ministrators and deans. It was the Affirmative Action office's job to look at the pool of candidates, check the qualifications to ensure that they were legitimate candidates and en- sure that a fair search process was being followed. But Nordby, a veteran of two presi- dential searches, said this process was much different. "That practice wasn't followed in these two presidential searches," Nordby said. In fact, she like all ad- ministrators, never saw the list of names. "I was kind of in the dark." Regents' Bylaw 13.14requires the Office of Affirmative Action to "... administer and monitor the Univer- sity policies of nondiscrimination and affirmative action." Nordby's ability to monitor the search was hampered by her limited access to search records. She never saw any names of candidates - only sheer numbers. But one faculty advisory commit- tee members, said Nordby's approval was little more than a rubber stamp. "They didn't expect anyone to get the names and so it was only impor- tant that a couple of women and mi- norities be 'considered."' Nordby says she approved the search. "When I signed off on the search, I saw only one name: President Dud- erstadt." Clinton moves forward. with welfare reforms Clinton finalizing welfare-reform plan, still seeking funding provisions NEWSDAY WASHINGTON -With a self- imposed spring deadline looming, President Clinton is putting the final touches on legislation aimed at ful- filling his popular campaign promise to overhaul the welfare system - but he still hasn't figured out how to pay for the plan. At a two-hour session last week, Clinton and his Cabinet wrestled with the unappealing possibilities of fi- nancing the proposal by imposing a federal tax on gambling or by slash- ing some benefits for the poor, a move critics charge would swell the ranks of foster children and the homeless. And the administration's welfare task force has been forced to shrink Clinton's ambitious original scheme - he had pledged to "end welfare as we know it" - in favor of a less costly program that by the end of the century will have pushed fewer than 3 percent of adult welfare recipients off the rolls and into jobs. Even so, some analysts say the plan could amount to a fundamental shift in welfare policy. "There should be no doubt that the Clinton administration has already had a pretty profound effect on the nature of the debate," said Gary Burtless, a senior fellow at the Washington-based Brookings Institution who has stud- ied welfare. "We do think it offers the real promise of ending welfare as we know it, of moving people from welfare to work," Clinton told reporters at a news conference Thursday night. "But I have made no decision on the financ- ing of welfare reform. I can tell you this: It's a tough issue because we have to pay for anything we do." In an effort to break the cycle of dependency that critics say welfare has fostered, the Clinton plan would: Push welfare recipients off the rolls after two years, forcing them to get jobs in the private sector or accept government-subsidized jobs. Child- care and job-training programs would be expanded to help. But only those born after 1972 would be affected. . Intensify government efforts to establish paternity and collect child support for children born out of wed-. lock. To prevent welfare from pro- viding an incentive for teen-age ille- gitimacy, mothers under 18 years of age would be required to live with their parents or other responsible adults to receive benefits. Allow states more flexibility toO experiment, probably including a pro- vision that would permit them to cap additional aid for mothers who bear children while receiving welfare. New Jersey last year received a federal waiver to try that. Other provisions of the White House plan are now being reconsid- ered as the administration tries to re- duce the cost of its package, officials said. They include: $5 billion to pro-@ vide child care for the working poor, $550 million to guarantee child sup- port payments, and $390 million to, help the unemployed fathers of chil- dren on welfare get jobs. ff .I TEXAS GRADUA TESCH OOLQ(F IN TERNATIONAL MANAG EMEN T 1400 Ocean Drive #702A.Corpus Clhristi.Texas.78404 "Study Graduate-level International Management in the heart of NAFTA" *Full-time and Executive International Master in Business Administration (IMBA); incliding Foreign Consultancy *Spenld sumumuers in Costa Rica.

A/C failure downs 'U' online networks Typestar is a trademark of Canon Inc. © 1994 Canon U.S.A., Inc. A comparatively low-tech prob- lem brought the entire University com- puter network to its knees over the weekend, disabling popular services such as the Michigan Terminal Sys- tem (MTS) and the library's MIRLYN system. A controller failure in a cooling tower at the Information Technology Division's (ITD) Computing Center Building forced the shutdown of Uni- versity mainframes and servers at about 7:30 p.m. Saturday to prevent overheating. Backup cooling systems were run- ning by mid-afternoon yesterday, and network services were coming back on-line throughout the evening. Vice Provost for Information Technology Douglas Van Houweling said this is the first system failure of this magnitude in several years. "Even when you've got all that backup, once in a while you still get a problem like this," he said. University libraries processed book checkouts by hand late Saturday and much of yesterday. LSA senior Brent Novak, who. works at the Graduate Library circu- lation desk, said the largest problem, however, has been the loss of the MIRLYN service. "It's hurt people who are looking for books, because they have to use the card catalog, which hasn't been updated since 1988," Novak said. At the Union computing center;, students complained of the inconve- nience of losing e-mail services. LSA junior Brian Ambrose said he tried three times Saturday and yes- terday tosign on to MTS, but was unsuccessful each time. "I had to do a computer confer-, ence for an English class.... It's amaz- ing; I don't live in a residence hall, and I have to schlep out to a comput- ing center, and it wastes time I don't have." By about 8 p.m. yesterday, most network services were functioning, with the exception of access to the Merit network for some users. "MTS is back up, clearly, and it looks as if we may have a problem with some of the 'Merit' host proces- sors," Van Houweling said at the time. "It's probably changing hour-to- hour as we get things working," he added. - By Daily Staff Reporter Scot Woods, I ne Micnigan Daily (ISSN U45-96 ) Is published Monday through Friday during the fall and winter terms by students at the University of Michigan.
