say would be saved by the Geography
department's elimination would make
up only one-fifth of the $1.2 million LSA
budget cuts needed. "You'll have to
change the nature of the college,"
Nystuen said.
Sociology Prof. David Goldberg, who
chaired the 1977 Geography faculty
review committee, said the proposed
discontinuance is a "myopic reflection
of short-term considerations."
Goldberg said that elimination of the
department "will lead to the end of a
discipline," citing the faculty's many
awards and outstanding books as
evidence of the department's prestige.
ACCORDING TO Goldberg, no
discipline is as qualified to comprehend
and deal with current metropolitan and
non-metropolitan issues as geography.
History of Art Prof. Joel Isaacson in-
formed the Regents that it is
"dangerous and illogical" to eliminate

the Geography department before
looking at ways to salvage its structure.
Because of the need to review
materials currently being compiled by
Nystuen before proceeding any further,
Vice-president for Academic Affairs
Bill Frye announced in a letter released
last week that his formal recommen-
dation concerning the fate of the
Geography department will be delayed
until after the May Regents' meeting.
OTHER BUSINESS discussed at
yesterday's meeting, held at Fair Lane
Conference Center on the University's
Dearborn campus, were the results of
an audit of student financial aid
programs between July 1, 1978 and
June 30,1980.
Performed on behalf of the federal
government by the University's Inter-
nal Audit Department, Financial Aid's
audit concluded that the University had
"generally administered its student aid
programs in a satisfactory manner."
University Audit Director A.B. Hicks
said "We did find substantial im-
provement" in management operations
an area that reportedly has had
problems in the past.
ON THE SUBJECT of student loan
default, Hicks pointed out that the 9
percent default recorded in the Univer-
sity's records fell way below the
national average of 25 percent.
The Regents were not as pleased with
the results of a six-month internal audit
report of University Hospital property
and equipment.
"We could not locate 46 percent of our
sample items and of those found many
were either not in the listed location or
were not tagged," according to Hick's
report.
