Goss RESIGNS The Michigan Daily - Wednesday, February 9, 2000- 7 ltollinger stays afloat under oodo problems U 'I' Prsident to discuss Yesterday's resignation of University Athletic Protesters claim that the society is an elitist dations and demands, that's underway" he said. versity administration to decide whether or not to signing of WRC with SOLE members in meeting today Cy Jeannie Baumann aily Staff Reporter Two weeks after University President Lee Bollinger had to leave campus to attend to flood damage to his Vermont residence, his office was flooded with a series of events including a resig- nation, a campus building takeover and an ulti- matutn from a student group. Director Tom Goss topped these events. Bollinger said he has had ongoing discussions with Goss regarding the state of the department, and they came to a mutual decision that Goss' resignation was the best course of action. "This is a painful day for me. I don't want to pretend that this is all good," Bollinger said after the press conference announcing Goss' resigna- tion, which was held yesterday in the Kuenzel Room of the Michigan Union. Meanwhile on the seventh floor of the Union, members of the Students of Color Coalition con- tinued their takeover of the Michagamua office. organization that exploits Native American cul- ture. In a written statement, the coalition demanded for the University to end its affiliation and funding of the Tower societies. We want this space to be liberated for all the students on campus," said Brian Babb, an SCC member. Babb, an LSA junior, said interim Vice Presi- dent for Student Affairs E. Royster Harper "understands our position. It's on her now." Bollinger said administrators are currently working to resolve these issues. "We are preparing responses to the recommen- Throughout the last week, Students Organiz- ing for Labor and Economic Equality also have put pressure on Bollinger to endorse the Worker Rights Consortium, a student-composed policy enforcing labor laws for all outlets that create University apparel. SOLE members are scheduled to meet with Bollinger today. "Clearly, Bollinger is having a rough week," said LSA junior Lee Palmer, a SOLE member. "This is an opportunity for him to express his decision. We're looking forward to meeting with him to get the WRC project started." SOLE originally had a Feb. 2 deadline for Uni- sign onto the WRC. They extended the deadline due to the flood in Bollinger's Vermont home. "We're reasonable people," Palmer said. But Palmer added that SOLE members will not back down on their demands, despite Goss' resignation and the Michagamua takeover. "We insist that he sign onto the WRC. We know it's the right decision for the University' she said. Bollinger said the flood of events are' part of his presidential position. "The job of being University president is doing 500 things. Theres an issue here, a problem there," he said. "Evexy issue is important. Most are not even visible." ,Board members say Goss' burden was not his own REACTION Continued from Page 1 camel's back, something obviously happened, otherwise this (the resigna- *ion) wouldn't have happened at this time. "When things happen is important, how things happen is important. Sometimes what happens is the least important." Berenson maintained his support for Goss. Berenson also said that he was not immediately successful when he started coaching at Michigan in 1984. "I didn't have a winning record here for four years and had they got rid of e it may have changed the course of this program," Berenson said. Other coaches shared Berenson's dis- belief and regret over Goss' departure. "This is a sad day for Michigan and a sad day for me," Michigan football coach Lloyd Carr said after the press conference. Diving coach Dick Kimball, whose career has spanned over the tenures of *ix athletic directors, said Goss was put into a different situation than for- mer athletic directors because of the increasing scrutiny the position invites. "The job of the athletic director is like being President of the United States," Kimball said. "Someone is always going to look at you like you're doing a bad job. There's always going to be criticism." Kimball also commended Goss for *ilis efforts with integrating women's programs into the University, some- thing Goss listed at the press confer- ence as one of his successes during his tenure. Kimball praised Goss for advancing women's sports by adding women's teams, but not at the expense of men's clubs. Coaches from both men's and women's teams seemed to share a respect for Goss and the direction that he navigated the department. "I respect Tom for what's he's accom- plished here," Michigan women's gym- nastics coach Bev Plocki said. "But I don't pretend to understand the scope of what has happened today." Members of the University Board in Control of Intercollegiate Athletics also expressed shock and confusion over the resignation. "This was absolutely between Goss and Bollinger. The Board had no role in this," board member Stephen Papadopoulos said. "The performance of Tom Goss in his job is judged by Lee Bollinger and any personnel actions are made by Lee Bollinger. I knew nothing about this until Saturday morning." Fellow board member Prof. Donald Deskins also said he had no knowl- edge that Goss would be resigning. "Things seemed to be going well," Deskins, a sociology professor said. Both Papadopoulos and Deskins expressed concern over the criticisms that have been leveled at Goss. "I think he'll be missed because he provided reasonable direction to carry those reforms out," Deskins said. "He inherited a lot of problems that didn't happen on his watch." - Donald Deskins Member of the University Board of Control of Intercollegiate Athletics "When you read the paper, the way the story was presented, Goss was responsible for problems that have occurred over 10 years. He inherited a lot of problems that didn't happen on his watch and that was the sur- prising and shocking thing about the coverage." Papadopoulos, who has been in close contact with Goss throughout this ordeal, praised him for his leadership. "This is a great loss to lose the leadership of Tom Goss," Papadopoulos said. "It's remarkable what he accomplished, considering how short his career - which was short by any standards - was here at Michigan." Papadopoulos expressed concern about what Goss' departure will do for the stability of the Athletic Department. He also said that Goss is "truly saddened that he has to leave the University he loves. He had great aspirations for this department." GOSS Continued from Page 1. Bollinger said. "It's simply not the role of the president of the Universi- Bollinger said he recognized the importance of deferring "in most instances to the judgements of individ- ual departments." But at the same time, he stressed the need for administrative partici- pation in certain matters to allow for a collective decision-making approach. "I do not want a University where various parts simply decide how to deal with things, and the University- which we are supposed to represent in the central administration, is only informed about," Bollinger said. A source said the "NCAA's recent- investigation of Jamal Crawford's eli- gibility --_ and Bollinger's unaware- ness of it - was a factor in Goss' departure. "You can take any of the issues that have been raised' in the media over the past two or three years. Every single one of those issues hAs been a collective effort on the paft of the athletic department and on the part of the administration," Bollinger said. "Take any of those issues, and you have University involvement." Near the end of this academic term, Goss is to receive a lump sum of S280,500, and will no longer be on the University payroll. Bollinger said he may name an interim director this spring, and plans to form a committee to search for the University's tenth athletic director. The appointment will be the second in Bollinger's three-year SAM HOLLENSHEAD/Daily University Athletic Director Tom Goss leaves the Michigan Union yesterday after a press conference announcing his resignation.
