The Michigan Daily - Friday, March 22, 2002 - 7 Tattoo 'U' ELECTIONS Continued from Page 1 record turnout for LSA-SG is due pri- marily to the dedicated campaigning of candidates. "I think that those of us in LSA-SG who have campaigned have campaigned very hard," she said. In addition to being approached directly by more candidates, many stu- dents have realized what LSA-SG is and what it can do from the government's involvement in projects like a survey on the consistency of graduate student instructors and the "Stop the Hate" cam- paign, Tronstein said. Such exposure in turn influenced the vote total, LSA-SG presidential candi- date Gwen Arnold said, because "just the fact that our name is out there more means more people will vote." Tronstein said the record turnout will force the election winners to focus on student issues and collect student feed- back for LSA-SG projects, many of which advocate reform of academic pro- grams in the College of Literature, Sci- ence and Arts. MSA also enjoyed a high voter turnout this election. The 6,858 ballots received surpass last year's number by 77 and was the second highest total ever, behind the election record of 7,840, set in the Winter 2000 elections. In addition to the hours spent by can- didates campaigning and urging people to vote, the high voter turnout may be due to the fact that three of the eight executive officer candidates - Students First candidates Sarah Boot and Dana Glassel, and independent presidential candidate Matt Stone - are members of fraternities or sororities. Panhellenic Association President Monica Rose said all Greek community members are highly encouraged to vote by their chapters, but candidates in the Greek system have the advantage of being able to mobilize large numbers of voters. "They have friends and contacts in a lot of the chapters. They did a great job promoting their individual par- ties," Rose said. "You've got a really good base of people to go to for votes. When you're really active in the Greek community, your name's already out there." Barring any difficulties with the online voting Website, unofficial results announcing the winners of each election will be e-mailed to candidates today at noon, and these results will be con- firmed by midnight on Sunday. BUDGET Continued from Page 1 promise," he said. Courant said he is still setting the amount it wants to devote to funding research. The agreement was reached after several colleges suggested that their tuition increases would be especial- ly high this year if they saw cuts in their state appropriations. Central Michigan University had even threatened a 28 percent increase. This agreement was made in record time. Assuming Engler signs the bill, this year's process will have been completed much quicker than last year's process, which lasted until August. "I'm sorry we don't see an increase because you're still going to see an increase in tuition," Sen. Alma Wheeler Smith (D-Salem Twp.), ranking Democrat on the Senate Appropriations Committee, said. When state revenue projections were revised last year, in light of the downturn in the economy, there was a fear among legislators that education funding would be cut. Most state departments, with the exception of higher education and K-12 education, saw cuts. Julie Peterson, the University's spokeswoman, praised those involved for not cutting the Univer- sity's funds. "In a normal year, we'd be dis- mayed to not be getting an increase, but we understand the tough budget outlook that's facing the state," she said. "But in real terms," she added, "it's a loss to the University because our costs go up."

Posthumus also lamented the fact that this year the Legislature was not able to give higher education institutions an increase in appropriations, but he said he credits the 55 percent increase they have received from the state in the last 10 years as helping to keep tuition lower than it would have been. He favors language in the appropria- tions process which penalizes universi- ties for raising tuition more than they should with cuts in their funding. "Everybody else has to control their budget. So do the universities." Touching on the subject of those who are uninsured for health care, Posthumus' solutions are to first, increase the number of Michiganders employed, and second, to provide incentives to small business to offer their employees health insurance. "A lot of the uninsured are employ- ees of very, very small businesses." Posthumus got his first experience in politics managing Engler's first cam- paign for the state House of Representa- tive and has followed him up the political ladder ever since. But Posthu- mus isn't afraid to acknowledge that, being conservatives, they agree on most policy questions, though his approach to governing is slightly different. "My priorities are going to be differ- ent from Governor Engler's in part because Michigan is different. In the 1990s, this state was in deep economic trouble." Now, he said, the state is weathering the national economic recession relatively well. "I believe in building a consensus," he added. "I'm a unifier. I set a vision of where we need to go and then bring people together to accomplish it" Although many of the other candi- dates favor a restructuring of state departments, such as merging the departments of Environmental Quali- ty and Natural Resources or splitting the Department of Community Health into separate departments concerning public health and mental, Posthumus is holding off on any promises to restructure. "You shouldn't lay out a bureaucrat- ic structure and fix your vision and policies around it," he said. "A leader should lay out a vision of where he or she is going to take Michigan, lay out the policies they are going to put in place and, based on that, then develop a structure around that." "I'm not wedded to any present structure, nor am I wedded to any change,"he added. He also promises to direct extra resources to early childhood develop- ment and reading initiatives and to help impoverished communities improve their sewer infrastructure, which he outlines in his "Marshall Plan for Water." His opponent for the Republican nomination is state Sen. John Schwarz of Battle Creek. Seeking the Democ- ratic nomination are former Gov. James Blanchard, U.S. Rep. David Bonior of Mt. Clemens, state Attorney General Jennifer Granholm and state Sen. Alma Wheeler Smith of Salem Township. The Democratic and Republican primaries will be held Aug. 6, and the general election will be held Nov. 5.
