"We do need to give them a list of demands ... but I don't think it's goingto be anything new to them,"Aleobua said. Dowdell said organizers weren't nec- essarily expecting to come out of the meeting with any decisions made as long as people began thinking about the consequences of a decline in minority enrollment. The next town hall meeting is sched- uled for Jan.19 at the Trotter House. Dowdell said PJC also plans to raise the issue during the Martin Luther King Jr. Day march on campus Jan. 17. INITIATIVE Continued from Page 1 program would not be a replacement but a "supplement" to the Office of New Student Programs Orientation. The POSSE orientation will offer students seminars focus- ing on developing research skills and writing papers as well as purchasing and working with computers. The half-day sessions will allow students to learn "about the expectations here and the best ways to get off to a fast start,' Matlock said. Through POSSE, coordinator Denise O'Neil Green said she hopes students will develop a sense of belonging at the University. "We want students to know the University of Michigan is their institution and that they should take advantage of its resources" said Green, a School of Education graduate stu- dent who helped author the proposal for the program. Beginning in January, POSSE will also allow current stu- dents an opportunity for internships in OAMI to investigate student success and student retention. A few teams of four or five students will explore the issues. "The students will then report back to the community" in a symposium, Green said. Graduation rates of underrepresented minority students are lower than for white students at the University. According to the Office of the Registrar within six years of their initial entry in 1992, black students graduated at a rate of 63 per- cent, Latino/a students graduated at a rate of 73 percent and A71 University sp Peterson indicated t Continued from Page 1 bility of students president of Pi's National Chapter, under the Universi which is located in Ohio, is meeting Conduct. today with University and fraternity Dean of Student officials to "finalize the investigation," said in a written sta he said. hazing are unaccep "This is an unfortunate incident that nizations are awat does not conform to values of our fra- going to permit th ternity," he said "and we will work Sanctions may bei swiftly" to resolve the matter. levels." WEBCAM Continued from Page 1 MGoBlue Website and MLive Website. "The Webcam is being moved to Yost Ice Arena because of the number of people in Yost. We wanted the camera to be more active and with Ann Arbor hockey, intermurals, figure skaters and free skaters, from 6 a.m. to 2 a.m., at least you'll see something," Bruce Madej said. The Webcam's images of Yost Ice Arena should be Native American students graduated at a rate of 60 percent. Eighty-four percent of Asian American students graduated, while 87 percent of white students graduated in the same period. Although Matlock said the University's retention and grad- uation numbers are among the highest in the nation, we "could always do better" A grant from the state's Department of Education Select Student Support Services and a matching contribution from the Provost's office will provide more than $200,000 forthe project. The proposal states that programs' effectiveness will be tracked through grade point averages, retention, completed credit hours and students satisfaction with their University experience. The POSSE proposal was one of 34 programs submitted from the state's public and private institutions focusing on retention. Rudy Redmond, coordinator for the Department of Education's Martin Luther King Jr., Cesar Chavez and Rosa Parks Initiative, a grant program that designates money to the support of pilot retention programs that meet certain criteria, said the University's proposal received a high score. Redmond said the program is being watched with enthusiasm. "Since this is the University of Michigan we are all look- ing at this ... ambitious approach," Redmond said. The proposals are scored based on factors including poten- tial to create sustained increase in the institution's retention and the institutions commitment to the initiative once funding has ended. The University must submit a mid-year report but is able to reapply for program funding for two additional years. okesperson Julie Peterson added that the fraternity that there is a possi- was on social probation until March being prosecuted 14, 2000 for serving beer from a keg at ty Code of Student a party, a violation of the new laws instated by the Interfraternity Council s E.

Madej said that the Webcam was installed to enhance their ability to draw viewers to their Web sites. The Webcam is a joint effort between the athletic - department and MLive. Although the Webcam broadcasts 24 hours a day, live relays of games are not shown. As for the urban legend of students trysting on the fifty-yard line of the football field, Skowron said, "There have been people down there at night on the field doing things they shouldn't have. If the Webcam is on all the time, then you could end up pretty embarrassed" CITING INTERNET STARTUP is king for motivated U-Michigan students iaaeieni raes oin camps. Icdes Jid a & stuck ptions.
