Regent Olivia Maynard (D-Flint) said
she believes the regents would support a
milder increase if it comes to the board.
"I think it's really important,"
Maynard said. "The fact that tuition con-
tinually increases is a hardship, so you
have to make tough choices. I think
(Bollinger's) commitment to keep tuition
low is very important. I think he will get
commitment from all the regents in that
regard."
Bollinger has not proposed an exten-
sive tuition plan similar to the one

Michigan State University President
Peter McPherson has had in pmactice for
the past three years.
Terry Denbow, vice president for uni-
versity relations at MSU said
McPherson began a tuition guarantee
that ensures tuition prices at MSU will
not increase over the rate of inflation.
The plan will continue through MSU's
class of 2001.
"It's addressing the need for stu-
dents and families to plan," Denbow
said. "Quality education must be
affordable. We see that tuition
restraint and quality are not incom-
patible. Indeed, we find they go hand
in hand."

NCAA investigators, considering that
institutional control is one focus in a cur-
rent NCAA probe of the basketball
team.
The Detroit News claimed Mott bas-
ketball coach Steve Schmidt purposeful-
ly withheld the information from
University officials in an effort to save
Harvey's basketball career.
The newspaper also stated that
Schmidt met with Genesee County
Prosecutor Arthur Busch to win some
leniency for Harvey.
However, Schmidt, in a conversation
with The Michigan Daily, said that many
of his comments had been misconstrued
or taken out of context, and refused to

tickets. University ticket records show
that Martin was often seated near
recruits at games.
An unsigned note on the ticket records
for a game in 1994 states the then-recruit
Willie Mitchell was to be seatedbetween
Martin and Detroit Mayor Dennis
Archer's son, which may be a violation
because at the time both Martin and
Archer were considered part of the
University's athletic program.
As a result of the allegations, the
University has hired a law firm that spe-
cializes in NCAA infractions and com-
pliance to investigate the claims.
