NEWS CONDUCT Continued from page 1 that enhanced sanctions should be con- sidered," Gewolb said. Elkin said he agrees with this proposal. MSA, the University's executive offi- cers and the Senate Advisory Commit- tee on University Affairs are given the opportunity to submit proposals to the code during its review process, which takes place every two years. After the proposals are submitted, SRAC decides which amendments to submit to Cole- man, who will then approve changes for implementation in July. But in the past the head of OSCR has had the final say on code changes, said Gold. "The experience from two years ago was that when the head of OSCR has made up his mind, that's the way itsis," Gold said. Elkin said he supports all of MSA's other proposals except seven that would restrict OSCR's procedural practices concerning the ways in which the organization administers the code. These amendments would cover a wide range of procedures from arbitration recordings to hearing proceedings. Gewolb said OSCR is the delegating authority when it comes to administering code procedure, yet its practices are not explicit in the code. Gewolb said knowing how rights are administered is sometimes "simply more essential to freedom" than know- ing the rights themselves. "It is essen- tial that procedures be subject to the same amendment and review process as other rights," he added. Elkin said Vice President for Student Affairs E. Royster Harper's proposal - which would allow for MSA representatives to comprise a majority of the OSCR Advi- sory Board and allow that board to review OSCR's procedures each year - would bet- ter address these procedural issues. "We're not rejecting the substance of any of the proposals that deal with the process," Elkin said. "All we're saying is that Vice President Harper's way of addressing it is a better way because it allows for annual review." Students can give feedback on proposed amendments on the OSCR website, www. umich.edu/~oscr. OSCR will also hold an open forum for discussion regarding poten- tial code changes on Wednesday from 4 to 6 p.m. at the Union in Anderson Rooms C and D.

She would not supply specific details but said they revolved around job security. Peterson said the current situation of grievances and negotiations was not out of the ordinary. "This is a new contract and it is not unusual that we would have some disagreements over the details of the implementation." LEO would like to see that the griev- ances are dealt with quickly and do not have to move onto neutral arbitration. "In this case, we have three of our members who have taught for the lon- gest time who are literally not going to have any job at all in the winter term if this is not resolved, so we want it resolved at this stage so we don't have to go through a lengthy arbitration," said Ian Robinson, co-chair of the Ann Arbor chapter of LEO. The University and LEO have agreed to meet again next week in order to share member concerns regarding the propos- als and work towards a final settlement. No specific date for next week has been decided. At the moment 12 other grievances are currently being processed, but each are at varying stages of the grievance process. Halloran said that the grievances not heard today were on individual timetables. "Each will gradually be worked through," she said. BUDGET Continued from page 1 last year when the regents agreed to hold tuition increases for this semester at the rate of inflation. The substantial revision in the state economists' estimate is largely due to a dra- matic shortfall in tax revenue for FY 2004, $124 million less than expected, Senate Fiscal Agency economist David Zinn said. The state will have to adjust its 2005 budget to account for this smaller tax base. Also to blame is the slow rate of job cre- ation in Michigan, which fell short of the state's official estimate for FY 2004, Zinn added. The state unemployment rate was 6.6 percent in October, the most recent month for which data are available. One factor Zinn cited in this trend is increasing productivity in the auto industry, which has allowed the Big Three automakers to maintain production levels without hiring more employees. Zinn also mentioned lower sales among the Big Three, both in absolute terms and relative to foreign competition, asa factor. The governor will revise her budget for the current fiscal year when the prin- cipals meet again in January. Bird said Granholm's office expects to have a small surplus from FY 2004. Because the state is still receiving money from FY 2004 liabilities, the size of the surplus, if it materializes, will not be known until next month and will be factored into the new revenue estimate at that time. BHOPAL Continued from page 1. Carbide from legal liability, said Ryan Bodanyl, coordinator of the International Campaign for Justice In Bhopal and a University alum. The campaign coordinates student activism across the world in effort to find justice for Bhopal. "More than anyone I would blame the Indian government for being corrupt and bureaucratic as usual and not looking out for the welfare of its people," said Engi- neering senior Shravanthi Gummadi, a member of the Indian Students Associa- tion. "People of Bhopal have been let down by their government and the legal sys- tems both in India and in the U.S.," said Bodanyl. "For Dow to say that they are notresponsible for the liabilities in Indiais contradicted in their actions," he said. Dow has inherited and paid out on Union Carbide's asbestos liabilities in the United States. The International Campaign for Justice In Bhopal has spent several campaigning for justice, Bodanyl said. The campaign continues to pressure Dow and the US Indian governments to ensure adequate health care, proper reha- bilitation for survivors and their children and a safer environment. "Dow has been lying about their liabil- ity. We're not waiting for them to tell the truth, we're telling the truth for them," Bodanyl said. the michigan daily UP TO 2 MONTHS FREE!* LUXURY APARTMENTS FROM $780 GREAT LOCATION - CLOSE TO NORTH CAMPUS.
