Students seek better courses in urban ed.
Forty-five years ago this
week (Nov.27,1968):
A group of students met to
discuss their discontent with
urban-education programs at
the University. These students
sought courses that would better
prepare them to teach in an urban
environment.
The students were asked to
propose a new position paper to
The Commission on Urban Edu-
cation to explain their plan of
action. Similar to the student's
goals, the commission sought to
develop an inner-city education
program and an interdisciplinary
program that offered courses in
political science, economics and
sociology.
Thirty-five years ago this cated during the tallying process,
week(Nov.29,1978): the LSA Academic Judiciary's
decision on a recount was final.
The LSA Academic Judiciary
ordered a recount of the LSA Stu-
dent Government election ballots
because of possible violations
during the tallying procedure.
Many of the LSA justices
believed that the elections direc-
tor at the time was not informed
about how the counting proce-
dure worked, which resulted in
mathematical errors. Members
of the United Students party
believed that the errors result-
ed from alcohol and marijuana
intoxication among ballot coun-
ters.
While those involved in tally-
ing the vote denied being intoxi-
Twenty-five years ago this
week (Nov.28,1988):
Residents in Stockwell and the
Mosher-Jordan residence halls
opposed a new plan to strengthen
security.
University administrators pro-
posed that guests of residents
would have to sign in and any per-
son entering the building would
have to show identification to a
security guard.

salaries increased
by 26.9% from
2006 to 2010
By SARAH YUFA
Daily StaffReporter
Pointing to the red felt square
fastened to his shirt with a safety
pin, Engineering sophomore
Dave Wyman, a member of the
Student Union of Michigan
explained that it was an interna-
tional symbol of student solidar-
ity.
"This is how we show that we
support real democracy and real
accessibility on U of M's cam-
pus," Wyman said.
Friday, students and faculty
gathered for a Teach-In and
Strategy Session organized by
faculty, students and the Student
Union of Michigan to discuss
discontent with what they see a
perceived corporatization of the
institution.
The first hour of the teach-in
included research presentations
on the University's money flow,
endowments and the Adminis-
trative Services Transformation
project.
Rackham student Brian Whit-
ener presented his findings on
University finances and how
they affect AST. He said the Uni-
versity blames the increase in
tuition on a decline in state fund-
ing, however, financial reports
for investors present a more
complex diagram of the Univer-
sity's revenue.
Whitener described four
flows of money into the Univer-
sity that showthat the increasing
importance of student tuition is
more complicated than pictures
of declining state funding would
lead the public to believe.
Whitener said one of the
reasons tuition is rising so
aggressively is because it's the
University's only source of
revenue that comes with "no
strings attached." He argued
that tuition can go toward any-
thingthe administration desires,
including higher salaries for
themselves.
Revenue from tuition is
placed in the University's gener-
al fund, according to the Office
of the Vice President for Com-
munications. Tuition cannot be
used to support the Athletics
Department, University Hous-
ing, the University of Michigan
Health System, student publi-
cations and most construction
projects. The Michigan Daily,
like other organizations in the
Office of Student Publications,
does not accept any funding
from the University.
In describing the University's
expenditures, Whitener claimed
that funds have been going into
building construction and into
administrators' salaries, citing
that administration salaries have
risen 26.9 percent from 2006 to
2010.
He added that about a decade
ago, the University made a deci-
sion to switch to attracting out-
of-state students who pay higher
tuition and started construction
projects to do so.
Whitener said that the Univer-
sity's rising tuition and focus on
attracting out-of-state students
has transformed the composi-
tion of the student body. From
2000 to 2010 students accepted
who came from a family income
of $200,000 per year rose by 9.2
percent at the expense of stu-
dents from family incomes of
$50,000to $74,990 per yearwho
dropped in enrollment.
Additionally, he said there has
been a "dramatic whitening of
the undergraduate population
at Michigan," as the enrollment
rate for students of color has also
dropped.
