THEATER
Continued from page 1
"You're going to only have 115
spaces there," Newman said. "If
you have a 230-person theater, and
you only have 115 spaces, everyone
else is going to have to schlep from
somewhere else."
When architects suggested that
the remaining theater patrons use a
shuttle, she said, "People don't like
that. Valet, maybe. But you're mak-
ing it inconvenient. You're making it
hard."
Long-term plans indicate the pos-
sible construction of an additional
parking structure near the theater in
2008, Payne said.
Several regents suggested the con-
struction of that structure be moved
up to coincide with the opening
of the theater. Payne said that that
would be difficult with existing cash
flow.
"We can look at what it would
take to accelerate the process," said
Timothy Slottow, University execu-
tive vice president and chief finan-
cial officer.
Newman agreed, emphasizing the
need for as much parking in the area
as possible.
"What if one night you have some-
thing in the auditorium and the the-
ater?" she added. "You're dead."
Diane Brown, University facilities
and operations spokeswoman, said
an analysis into the feasibility of
moving up the timeline of the park-

ing garage will be conducted over
the next few months.
Former University President Lee
Bollinger first suggested the theater
in 1997 as part of efforts to illustrate
the University's rich history through
physical ties to the past.
Miller approved a University
offer to lend his name to a theater in
2000 with a simple postcard, which
read, "The theater is a lovely idea.
I've resisted similar proposals from
others but it seems right from Ann
Arbor."
After Miller's approval, the the-
ater was originally slated for a Cen-
tral Campus site near the Power
Center and had a projected price tag
of $20 million.
The cost increased mostly because
of increased needs of the dance and
theater programs as well as the addi-
tion of the North Campus Audito-
rium.
The recipient of a Pulitzer Prize
for his play "Death of a Salesman"
among other literary honors, Miller
attended the University from 1934 to
1938. During his time at the Univer-
sity, he won two Hopwood Awards
for his playwriting while writing for
The Michigan Daily and washing
dishes for meals.
"I can think of no better tribute to
alumnus Arthur Miller than this the-
ater," Coleman said. "The Walgreen
Drama Center will offer academic
space for future generations of stu-
dents and faculty engaged in the cre-
ative and performing arts."

GEO
Continued from page 1
native plans just in case.
Gupta, a history GSI, plans on holding her
classes at Starbucks instead of the classroom dur-
ing their scheduled times.
The lecturers' union, the Lecturers' Employee
Organization, has said that though it supports
their cause, it will not ask its members to walk
out in solidarity.
"We are sympathetic and supportive of the
issues that GEO is discussing, but we are not call-
ing a strike. We have a no-strike clause in our
contract," said LEO president Bonnie Halloran.
She continued and said that members have
individually been discussing whether they plan
on supporting the walkout.
"Many members will honor the picket lines,"
Halloran said. She added that she feels there is
a strong sentiment among LEO members to sup-
port GEO.
GEO members are currently in the process of

voting to authorize a walkout on Thursday. Mail-
in ballots were sent to members late last month
and will be counted on Sunday to gauge the senti-
ment of members.
A final vote to approve a walkout will take
place at a membership meeting on Wednesday.
GEO president Dave Dobbie said that he hopes
that the union will not need a walkout and can
instead solve its differences with the University
through an all-day bargaining session today.
Another session is scheduled for Tuesday before
the final vote, where the University's last offer
will be assessed.
"I'm not as hopeful as I was before (last week's
negotiations)," he said. "I hope that over the next
couple of sessions that (the University) comes
back with more substantial proposals," said Dob-
bie.
He added that GEO would be asking students,
staff and faculty to stay off the campus and not
cross picket lines. He also said that they would be
asking professors and lecturers to not hold classes
in a sign of solidarity.

NCAA
Continued from page 1
only 8 percent of its freshmen class from that year.
Its academic progress rating is a meager 827, second 7
worst in the field of 65, and 100 points below a pass-
ing rating. Louisiana-Lafayette was the worst of this
year's tournament teams, with a score of 804.
At present, 29 of the 65 teams in the tournament
have academic progress ratings of less than 925, but
19 of them have been given an upper confidence
boundary of 925, or given the benefit of the doubt.
These 19 teams would likely not be subject to pen-
alties.
While much of the attention has been focused on
the poor scores of Final Four contenders Kentucky .
and Louisville, several top teams have exceptionally ;
high scores. Of the four No. I seeds, Washington is _7
the only team with a failing score (871). North Car-
olina amassed a perfect score of 1000, Duke scored
960 and Illinois earned 979 points.
Michigan's men's basketball team earned an aca-
demic progress rating score of 950.

HIGHER ED
Continued from page 1
State Rep. Glen Steil (D-Kent), a member of the
House Appropriations Committee, called the
idea impractical.
"In a perfect world, that would be great - I'm
not against it - but the fact of the matter is you
can't guarantee funds for everything," Steil said.
"If there's enough money, then I'm open to
that, but right now there's not. I care about higher
education funding as much as anybody, but it's
about making choices, keeping in mind that you
don't want to compromise the quality of our uni-
versities."
Mike Boulus, executive director of the Presi-

dents Council, State Universities of Michigan,
said he thought it was "almost hypocritical" for
the state to require universities to hold tuition at
the rate of inflation and still cut funding, Booth
Newspapers reported.
"It's been a tough year, but we have to question
how the state can hold down tuition, cut our state
aid and conclude that we're properly investing in
higher education" Boulus said.
University President Mary Sue Coleman has
said the University has lost $50 million from the
state's general fund over the past three years.
University spokesperson Julie Peterson said
Coleman will discuss state appropriations cuts
when she testifies before the House subcommit-
tee on higher education spending Wednesday.
