THE MICHIGAN DAILY [ .+... .. ...r' .. Sibley AnnouncesUnion Policy In Latest Official Statement 4>-- - I Union President Robert Sibley, '42E, has issued his statement of Union policy representing the plans and program of action for the Union dur- ing the coming year. "The Michigan Union is on the campus for one purpose; to serve as the center of activities for the men of Michigan. The only way this purpose can be fully realized is through the active participation of those members of the organization in several phases of Union activity. "The policy has been in the past, and shall be in the present dedicated to the maintenance of the Union as a club for Michigan men. The Union All eligible sophomores and sec- and semester freshmen interested tn trying out for the Union under- graduate staff should meet in Roomn 302 of the Union at 4 p.pn. tomorrow. will endeavor to be of assistance to the many organizations *on campus, and encourage these organizations to make use of the many facilirties therein. "The Union will endeavor to pre- sent several informal meetings of various sorts at which times phases of campus life, political subjects, and occupational information will, be sub- jects of discussion. "The traditions of the Union will continue to be observed. The front door. will be reserved for men, aidt ROBERT SIBLEY all women will be requested to use the side entrance.j "As the Union is the club for Michi- gan men, yoir as students of the Uni- versity possess all rights of member- ship upon formal registration at the Union Student Offices. "I urge every member to take ad- vantage of the privileges offered him and to use the Michigan Union as his club, both while in college and as an' ,alumnus of the University." -Robert Sibley CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING Board Report Would Curtail Instructorship University Policies Group Recommends Six Years As Maximum Period1 Set Ruling Is Sought Based upon the thesis that the position of instructor at the Univer- sity is purely a probationary one in which the individual is given an op- portunity to prove himself worthy of advancement, a report recommending ,he limitation of the instructorship period to a fixed maximum of ,six years has been referred to President Ruthven by the Advisory Board on University Policies. The specific proposals as set forth in the board's report, covering the entire field on the tenureship and evaluation of instructors. Their put- pcse is to provide the university with a policy in dealing with the instruc- torship problem which will be con- sistent througout all the schools and colleges.1 30 Year RecordS It was found upon investigation that this position on the faculty, supposedly probationary in charac- ter, had in reality occasionally ac- quired a status approaching inde- terminate tenure. One case was dis- covered of a person remaining an instructor for 30 years. ;Feeling that "indefinite retention in the instructorship often produces inequalities with unfortunate effects on general morale" and that persons so retained were prevented from "full realization of their capacities," the board recommended that "the overall period'of service in the instructor- ship of persons initially appointed to this rank after the adoption of these provisions shall not exceed six years." It was also provided, however, that for some special skill which was ap- propriate to that rank a person might be appointed a senior instructor at the end 2f six years in a regular in- structorship. Anyone in this status is to enjoy indeterminate tenure but will have no chance for advancement. Appraisal Sought The report urged,Stoo, that every recommendation for promotion, re- appointment or transfer to senior status of an instructor shall be sup- ported by an evaluation reprt. This would include a record of his schol-I astic and professional attainments, an appraisal of his research and an evaluation of his teaching ability. The Advisory Board, which was created last April, has as its mem- bership Profs. Arthur W. Bromage, John P. Dawson, Charles L. Jamison, Clarence D. Thorpe and Chairman William C. Hoad. Its report must be considered and passed upon by the Board of Regents before it becomes effective._ Drum And Bugle Corps Cals For New Recruits Basic ROTC students interested in serving as field musicians are urged to attend an organization meeting of the Drum and Bugle Corps at 7:30. p.m. today in ROTC Hall. Cadets need have had no previous experience in either drum or bugle. Coaches from the University Band will be available to instruct novices, and the ROTC unit has 32 pieces available for corps members. This body will play for ceremonies of the regiment of cadets and select- ed members have in the past per- formed at the annual Military Ball.

Productions Scarce # Compare, then, the scarcity of the productions of twenty years ago with the thirty-five-odd plays presented in the last academic year. Compare the inadequacy of the facilities thenI with the advantages now being en- joyed by the classes. An example of this tremendous improvement can be noted in the case of the cycle of me- dieval plays offered this summer. For that production University funds paid for the extra power lines that had to be introduced into Hill Audi- torium to supply the 135,000 watts of electricity needed for the perform- ance., Agaih, for the Michigan Repertory about many of the famous Michigan lumberjacks, several of whom he has known personally.
