- a status quo that might itself harbor
forces which, for all we know, could
bring about some things we most want
to avoid," Huntington said.
"HOW DOES development of
weapons software' advance the quest
for truth and wisdom?" he asked.
But in a separate interview, Bill
Lucas, director of Ann Arbor's High-
technology Task Force, said the
University's role will be very in-
significant in the defense department
project.
"A University program is not what
the Defense Department wants," said
0 Lucas. "I see the main emphasis of the
institute instead in the private sector."
GEORGE GAMOTA director of the
University's Institute of Science and
Technology, said that the main reason
the University is so interested in SEI is
the possibility of "having a high-tech
effort in the area - one that will dictate
the future of software."
According to Lucas, the defense
department plans to assemble "100 or
* so of the best minds in the country" and
develop a new computer language -
called ADA - that will be applied to all
computers.
"And the DoD is in the position that if
they want their language to become the
standard, it will become the standard,"
Gamota said.
'U' to appeal
By PETE WILLIAMS
University attorneys said yesterday
they plan to appeal a federal judge's
decision that found the University
guilty of not affording due process when
it rescinded a former student's degree.
In her 85-page opinion, U.S. District
Court Judge Anne Diggs Taylor said the
University "...proposed to rescind his
degree without due process of law." She
ordered that a Master of Science degree
again be awarded to Wilson Crook.
* CROOK WAS accused by the geology
department of fabricating the date for
his 1977 Master's, thesis. He claimed to
have discovered a new element,
"texatite," which was later discovered
to resemble a synthetic compound
missing from a professor's lab.
"The University did everything
possible to deny him due process,"
Crook's Detroit attorney, George
Bushnell said. "The court found the
conduct of the University utterly

reprehensible."
University counsel Roderick Daane
said Bushnell's complaints may have
arisen because the defense failed to
respond on time to the charges against
Crook. Daane said he sent a detailed list
of charges to Crook's attorney in June,
1979.
INSTEAD OF responding by the
August 1 deadline, Daane said,
Bushnell replied on September 19 -
three days before the hearing. "This
generated the claim that he hadn't had
adequate time to reply," Daane said.
The University will appeal, but
Daane refused to speculate on what the
U.S. Court of Appeals might do.
"It's like making book on the
weather," he said.
The trial centered on the question of
whether Crook was afforded due
process, and it did not address the
legitimacy of his thesis.

hours have not been decided, but
Kubaiko said an agreement will be
reached by August 1.
Beginning in September, Luckey
said, the coalition will lobby for
graduate fellowships for disabled
students and handicapped accessibility
to all University buildings.
He said the coalition plans to create a
system for monitoring complaints
against professors who "do not know
how to deal with disabled students."
