Hass also addressed the ongoing struggle to improve envi-
ronmental policy.
"Recent environmental politics can be compared to 19th cen-
tury government policy with Native Americans," Hass said. He
described both policies as consisting of a series of retractions
and broken promises.
Once in the Arboretum, the group divided into smaller teams
to brainstorm ways to bring more visitors to the Arb. One small
group engaged in a lively discussion on the future of the Arb.
New ideas sprouted, including the placement of benches
throughout the park, the construction of an amphitheater for
live performances as well as areas with seating for classes.
The group discussed programming events with long-term

idents of Mary Markley Residence Hall.
"Markley is an important audience," said Donna Wessel-
Walker, an LSA Honors Program advisor. She said programs
that give Markley residents a genuine interest in the conserva-
tion of the Arb would prevent students from partying and leav-
ing beer cans in the area.
Bob Grese, an SNRE professor, expressed the importance of
student involvement in conserving the Arb. "Holistic approach-
es such as Project Serve (a community service group) give stu-
dents a sense of ownership through involvement." Grese said.
While most of the group supported development that would
attract more visitors, others felt conserving the natural environ-
ment of the Arb was crucial.
LSA senior Lisa Delafuente said construction in the Arb
would take away from its value as a student escape.

Peterson described Baker as being
"wonderfully talented."
Baker said she has established many
working relationships and friendships
with faculty and staff at the University
over the years.
"I have really enjoyed working with
students," Baker said.
Baker said she anticipates working
again, but currently her top priority is
spending time with her family. Baker
said she is grateful that she and her hus-
band are financially secure, allowing
her to take time off.
"I do plan to work again," Bal
said. "Eventually, maybe not theai
type of job. There are a lot of t

Peterson said Baker's job is vi
demanding and requires long hours.

many years of "creative brainstorm-
ing," which will undoubtedly involve a
good deal of financial support.
Bollinger said the founding of the com-
mission also presents the opportunity
for construction of new campus build-
ings.
Chemistry Prof. William Roush,
one of the commission's co-chairs,
said the broad-based commission will
consider which themes already exist in
the life sciences and attempt to build
upon them. He added that the group
will define the University's goals for
its life science programs in the "not-
so-distant future."
"The timing of this is right,"
Roush said. "There are already sub-
stantial strengths in all these areas.
... We're positioned on the verge of
tremendous programs in life science.
Michigan wants to capitalize on this
opportunity."
Bollinger said the goals on the com-
mission's agenda will include progress
in undergraduate research, graduate
studies, recruitment of students, gov-
ernment funding and possible medical
treatments.
Gilbert Omenn, executive vice pre
dent for medical affairs, said the coi
mission will look to advance undi
standing of the life sciences.
"1 think (the University) is a

tions for the life sciences," Omenn sa
"But we could be seen as even mc
outstanding"
Omenn said the group will help t
University climb in national rankings

Bollinger said he is excited about t

"The promise is so great," Bol*
said. "You just have to feel the sense
