LOCAL/STATE The Michigan Daily - Friday, November 6, 1998 - 7 JICKETS Continued from Page 1 away the book." Problems with the book-ticket system includ- ed students losing books or leaving the books in Michigan Stadium. "If that system was a good system, it would still be in use today" Bodnar said. Bodnar said a decision will be made about tickets within the next few months. "In late January we go to press on the student ,plications," Bodnar said. "My priority is to get on the phone and see what other schools do." Students are not being specifically targeted by the University, Bodnar said. "Scalping is an issue for everybody who attends the game'" Bodnar said. Bodnar said stu- dent tickets may be targeted because of the dis- counted price. Board members discussed the football ticket system used by the University of Notre Dame, which uses designated student gates. "It's very difficult to scalp a student ticket at Notre Dame," Bodnar said. Greg Herczeg, a senior at Notre Dame, described the ticket system. "We get a packet of six tickets in one" Herczeg said. Students are required to sign the front of the packet and show a student ID twice "It's very difficult to scalp a student ticket at Notre Dame." - Marty Bodnar Director of ticket operations - once upon entering the stadium and then before sitting in the stadium. Student IDs are not closely examined, Herczeg said. "It's really hard to sell a ticket if you don't trust a person," Herczeg said. Students can opt to exchange their tickets for general admissions tickets, but they are required to pay the $16 price difference, Herezeg said. "The major problem with tickets is if you're acting out at a game ... the ushers will take your ticket book,' Herczeg said. If tickets are confiscated for misbehavior, refunds are not given, Herczeg said. Students can purchase general admission tickets if their book is taken or lost, but they must pay $16 per ticket. "It's fairly common for friends" to loan ticket books to one and other, but "you have to be care-_- ful doing it," Herczeg said. The Board also discussed the examination of women's water polo and women's lacrosse as possible future varsity teams to fulfill the° requirements of Title IX of the Civil Rights Act. "We want to be proactive along these lines:' Goss said. "If you plan it and manage it, it will have less of an impact on your operations." A committee through the Athletic Department will determine the expense each team would incur as a varsity team, including national champi- onships, the needs of each team and facilities. "It's a road map in terms of where to go" Goss said. LAWSUIT Continued from Page 1 Educational Fund. ^ MALD spokesperson Rosa Abreu said the coalition is empha- sizing the importance of student evolvement with the lawsuits and said it is clear the students who wish to intervene have a lot at stake. "Every day that goes by without the view of minority students is a day that is really lost in student's ability to fully participate," Abreu said. But the current problem, Dillard said, is not an issue of the University versus the coalition. "We're dealing with the issue of 3*ether U of M can adequately repre- sent the position of people of color:' Dillard said. "The coalition is con- cerned with equal access to educa- tion. (The University) is concerned with education diversity." University spokesperson Julie Peterson said she could provide no information regarding the coalition's latest appeal. In the wake of this latest develop- ent, Law Prof. Terrence Sandalow hid there is no question that the progress of the case continues to draw interest among students and faculty. "In the sense that it is a legal case. There is a great deal of interest -around the Law School," Sandalow said, adding that he was not familiar enough with the details of the latest appeal to say for sure whether it will make substantial progress in the law- *it. Dillard said it is important to understand that the coalition, while appealing to the Cincinnati-based court, does support educational diversity, but also believes the University alone may not be able to adequately argue some of the law- suit issues. For better representation, he said, the lawsuit should involve minority students, prospective minority stu- dents and the coalition. "The University is a state actor and is subject to external and inter- nal pressure" Dillard said, citing the recent debates over the dedication of an East Quad Residence Hall room to RC Prof. Carl Cohen. The room originally was sched- uled to be named for Cohen but the naming was revoked due to problems with Housing Division policies, sparking debate over whether or not Cohen's outspoken opposition to the University's use of race-based prefer- ences in admissions also contributed to the decision. The coalition also considered the University's overall support for the previous intervention attempt to be inadequate. "We feel (the University) gave lukewarm support for us ... we would have liked it to be stronger," Dillard said. The lawsuit intervention process has been long and discouraging, Abreu said, but it has not necessarily hindered students' energy about the central issue of involvement in the cases. "It's clear that from the stand- point of prospective students, they are more interested than ever," Abreu said. Cox seeks to topple Gingnich * - m JOIN THE MOST PROMISING PROFESSION OF THE 21ST CENTURY Los Angeles Tunes WASHINGTON -- A Californian has fired the opening shot in the polit- ical blood bath that could erupt later this month when House Republicans decide whether to dump one or more of their leaders because of the party's poor election showing. Rep. George Radonovich announced yesterday he will run for one of the party's leadership posts - Republican Conference chair - when all GOP members meet Nov. 16 to choose their leaders for the new Congress. And another Californian, Rep. Christopher Cox, said he plans to sound out colleagues about running for a top leadership job, perhaps even challenging House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga). Cox, who holds a mid-level leader- ship post as chair of the House GOP policy committee, would be consid- ered a longshot for toppling Gingrich. But his willingness to entertain the notion is indicative of the turmoil brewing within the GOP. Indeed, in comments at an Irvine, Calif, luncheon, Cox flatly predicted: "There will be a leadership shake-up. The damage that Newt Gingrich has sustained over being the poster child for everything that's wrong with Washington makes him a less attractive Prospective Teacher Education Meeting Tuesday, November 10, 1998 6:00 p.m. Schorling Auditorium Room 1202 School of Education Building Call 764-7563 for more information.

Radonovich, owner of a California winery who was elected to Congress in 1994, is the first Republican to openly announce a challenge to a sitting GOP leader. In seeking the post of conference chair, Radonovich will take on Rep. John Boehner (R-Ohio). The chair's job is to preside over weekly closed- door meetings of all GOP House members, at which they plot legisla- tive and political strategy. 1200 S.
