team. The nature of the relationship
depends more on the personalities of
the president and the provost than on
any particular set of rules."
Chemistry Prof. Thomas Dunn, who
chairs the faculty's governing body,
said Duderstadt ran the University in a
top-down fashion. Dunn said it will be
good for the University if Bollinger
builds stronger lines of communication
with the deans.
But Dunn said Bollinger sent con-
fusing signals about how he sees the
deans' roles. Dunn cautioned
Bollinger not to give more direct
power to the deans, but added that
more communication between differ-
ent parts of the University would be a
big improvement.
"It wasn't clear to me what he really
meant,' Dunn said. "I would have been
in like Flint had I thought he just meant
he was going to increase The power of
the deans. ... I would be against an
arbitrary assumption of more power by
the deans."
Dunn said faculty governance has
great influence in the overall direction
of the University. Deans act as man-
agers, Dunn said, while faculty gover-
nance sets long-term goals and agen-
das.
"We need a lot more communication
at all levels, not more power" Dunn
said.
Engineering Dean Stephen Director,
who came to the University last July,
said Bollinger's perspective is probably
affected by his seven years of service as
Law dean.
"It sounds to me that Bollinger's
thought on changing the organization is
based upon what he remembers things
to have been like while he was dean
here," Director said.

"When you poll the people and ask
them their priorities, they want to see
deficit control and a balanced budget as
Ouch as they want to see tax reform,"
said U.S. Sen. Larry Craig (R-Idaho).
However, demanding a balanced
budget requires the government to
reassess the structure of government
and its fiscal priorities, Craig said.
Craig said that if all the members of
Congress who voted for the previous
proposal and all the newly elected
members who promised to support the
measure keep their word, legislation for
balanced budget amendment should
pass in the 105th Congress.

tions and cre-
ativity in edu-
cation they What A

study is a grim omen for unrealized edu-
cation goals.
U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich
(R-Ga.) said schools are concentrating
too much on bureaucracy.

any time soon - the Welfare Reform
Act. The bill, which transferred respon-
sibility for much of the regulation of the
welfare system to the states, should be
given a chance before Democratic
opponents render it ineffective or harm-
ful, they said.
"Let's try to make it work and then as
we learn things, we're prepared to try to
improve it,"Gingrich said.
Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad said the bill
represented a historic shift of power
from the federal government to the
states. The governors cited federal stipu-
lations in the legislation that may be
obstacles in making it work, however.
Work force development strategies
should be a priority for governors across
the country, said Rep. Bill Goodling (R-
Pa.).
"Problems will only be compounded
as welfare recipients are forced to seek

employment or face reductions in bene-
fits,' Goodling said.
Gingrich warned the governors not to
simply shift federal bureaucracy to the
states, creating more limitations
through agencies, courts and guberna-
torial administrations.
"Decentralization from Washington
can also be matched by decentralization
of state capitols,"Gingrich said. "I want
to remind you that state departments of
education are often more rigid and
engage in more regulation than the fed-
eral Department of Education."
Gingrich took the governors' respon-
sibility to a broader level and delegated
to them some of the responsibility of
maintaining a positive image as a world
leader.
"They look to us to prove to their
doubters that there is a model to dedi-
cate themselves to," he said.

Michigan schools have adapted to the
age of technology well, but need to take
the next step, he said.
"We're there," Engler said. "What
does a school do once it's dialed into the
Internet?"
Gingrich said instability in higher
education stems from a tendency of
"academia" to abandon American solu-
tions and values for European ones. He
said political science and sociology
professors are particularly guilty of
choosing European models over indi-
vidualism and decentralization.
"(European models) are very heavily
influenced by a state-centered tradition
rather than a citizen-driven model,:
Gingrich said.
