The Michigan Daily -Thursday, February 15, 2001- 9A arper ' ith Mid U zig, not finished Theuncounted Preliminary estimates from Census i s e2000 show that more Americans were ra m u acounted than in 1990. Here are the estimated percents of uncounted Americans. (Racial categories were " i i:.cs.,.. .. ..A *, added for Census 2000.) M~fi1CHIGAMUA Continued from Page IA .fter-the artifacts were removed and , University administration agreed form a panel to study issues raised by the SCC. Vice President for Student Affairs I;. Royster I larper said the administra- tion was able to hear students' con- cerns dluring the occupation and is not yet finished dealing with the Michiga- mlit1a issue. "The way we get better as an 1ist itution is to listen," Harper said, adding that administrators did just at during the tower occupation. W'This does not mean that we listen anid we do. This means we listen and we consider," she said. "We are always in the process of getting better." One lingering issue for the SCC isthat Michigamua has not changed its name. The name was modified to ".1ic1i.tamua: New Traditions for a New I Millennium," but SCC mem- bcrs said that did not accomplish it goals. Bernal added that Michiganiua's current class has the power to change the group's name once again. "They ignored legitimate pleas" from local members of the Native American community and resisted adopting a different niiame, Bernal said. "I think that's blatantly disre- spectful to a group that's asked them in a variety of ways. ... If it's nol racist, it's racially insensitive." *Although the SCC received support frOin some University departments, Bernal said, the administration has not been helpful. "In general, they were siiipposed to make it hard for us," Bernal said. lernal said prominent faculty members who claim they are com- mnitted to minority issues "disap- peared" during the tower *cupation. "What opportunity are they look- ing for? Is it research? Is it more We 11sten and we consider.' - E. Royster Harper Vice president for student affairs luncheons? Is it more speeches to introduce keynote speakers? ... Or is it something tangible?" Bernal asked. Pledges by administrators to consid- er changes have not produced results, Blernal said. "The space allocation panel they created was a joke," Bernal said. Commissioned by harper after the occupation, the panel was created to decide the fate of the space in the tower. The three-person panel recoin- mcnided in July that the groups should vacate the tower. The panel also suggested the University enforce uniform standards in regard to allocating meeting space for stu- dent organizations. "That's what we have implemented" I larper said, adding that students and staff are working on the details of that policy. One of'SCC's complaints was that Michigamua had permanent, free use of the space in the tower because the group helped fund con- struction of the Union. As for Michigamua itself, every- thing reiains the same, "other than the fact that our meeting space was different," said University alum Rishi Moudgil, a member of last year's Michigamua class. "We're still trying to serve U of M as we have," Moudiil said. There simply was no need to radi- cally change the society, lie said. Moudgil said Michligtamua had already dissociated itself' from the practices the SCC found offensive long before the tower occupation drew attention to the society.

David Mead (R-Frankfbrt) said he would look for extra money to help bring Michigan State up to its funding floor. While the budget for the 2002 fis- cal year is tighter than the current bud- get, Mead said lie thinks he can find another S2 million to S4 million for hiiher education. "We have to set our sights on the CENSUS Continued from Page 1A be a very uphill climb. "We already assume that there is an undercount," said Phil Ginotti, admin- istrative assistant to state Sen. Bill Schuette (R-Midland), who chairs the Senate Reapportionment Committee. Ginotti said the Legislature uses a process known as "standard deviation" to adjust for undercounts, which he said is more accurate than statistical sam- pling. To find the average size of leg- islative districts, Ginotti said, the state population is divided among the 110 seats in the House and 38 in the Senate. Areas that are tradi- tionally undercounted, he said, were given smaller districts with a lower constituent-to-representative ratio. "What happens is suburban areas are dramatically under represented and urban areas are dramatically over represented," he added. University Public Policy Prof. John Chamberlin, who has studied redistricting in Michigan since 1970, said this year is one of the rare times in which one party has controlled all levels of state goveri- nent. "From beginning to end, short of federal courts, (Republicans) can do whatever they want as long as they have a majority." Chamberlin added that since Repub- licans control the redistricting process, they stand to gain three or four seats in the House of Representatives and one or two seats in the Senate. (inotti said the redistricting should be completed in early November and will take effect in the 2002 elections. long-term strategy to bring funding in line," Mead said. Western Michigan University is the only other university that would not meet its funding floor under Engler's proposal for the next acad- emic year. Western Michigan would receive S5,638 per student under Engler's budget, more than the S5,424 it received this year but less than its funding floor of 55,700. TEXTBOOKS Continued from Page 1A to be successful, it would need to be written carefully. "I would prefer that the law be writ- ten in a way that we would not have to police which of our customers are col- lege students. If we would suddenly have to ask for IDs, it would become cumbersome," Nickels said. Pritzlaff and Waller asked the repre- sentatives at the conference to talk with their student bodies to gain sup- port. Waller gave out 2,000 postcards for students to sign and send to Rep. Nancy C'assis (R-Novi), who chairs the House Tax Cornmittee. "We hope to really show Nancy Cassis that there's student interest for this." Waller said. The first form of a bill to remove sales tax from textbooks was intro- duced in March 1997 by Rep. Vera Rison (D-Mount Morris). Rison-s bill also never made it out of corn mit tee. Arizona, Missouri, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania have already passed similar legislation to remove textbook sales tax. Metro A irport 18 bucks round trip' DTWBus.
