THIs DAY
In Daily History
Court refuses to
readmit expelled
student
March 24, 1983 - Former student
Scott Ewing lost his battle in court
yesterday to be readmitted into the
University Medical School's presti-
gious Interflex Program. Ewing was
expelled from Interflex, an acceler-
ated medical program, after failing
a board exam.
In a U.S. district court, Ewing's
lawyer, Michael Conway, argued that
despite the fact 40 students had failed
the board exam, 39 of those students
were given the opportunity to retake
it - Ewing was the only exception.
The medical school's Promotion
and Review Board maintained that
it had acted arbitrarily in Ewing's
case and came to the decision of dis-
missing him after he had a series of
struggles in the program in addition
0 Democrats say move is
partisan; Republicans say
board is "out of control"
LANSING (AP) - The Michigan
Senate passed legislation yeseterday
stripping powers from the state elec-
tions board, a backlash against Demo-
cratic members who've been criticized
for the way they handled an anti-affir-
mative action ballot measure.
The Republican-led Senate voted along
party lines to send the legislative package
to the House, which has already approved
some of the bills. Democrats opposed the
legislation.
The proposal would shift responsi-
bility for putting ballot issues before
Michigan voters from the Board of
State Canvassers to the state Bureau of
Elections.
The four-member canvassers board
has two Democrats and two Republi-
cans, leading to partisan splits in recent
years over controversial ballot issues
such as gay marriage and affirmative
action.
Last year, the Democratic board
members initially refused to comply
with a court order to place a consti-
tutional amendment banning some
affirmative action programs on this
November's ballot, citing concerns that
signature gatherers misrepresented the
proposal to minorities and others.
Sen. Alan Cropsey, a DeWitt
Republican and lead sponsor of the
legislation, said it would remove the
certification process from an "out-of-
control" Board of State Canvassers.
"This is an issue of, 'Are you going
to let people speak, are you going to let
people vote?"' he said.
Democrats said the bills were par-
tisan, adding that the state elections
director - who would be responsible
for approving ballot petitions - reports
to Secretary of State Terri Lynn Land,
a Republican.
Sen. Gilda Jacobs, a Huntington
Woods Democrat, said she disagreed
with the board's actions but said it was
unnecessary to take away its powers.
"This board usually works," she said.
"When it doesn't work, people can go to
court and challenge its actions."
Sen. Buzz Thomas, a Detroit
Democrat, said Democratic mem-
bers of the board were right to be
concerned about possible fraud on
the part of those who gathered sig-
natures to put the anti-affirmative
action measure on the ballot.
