participants from successful pro-
grams in other cities and a follow-
up discussion."
Housing in Ann Arbor is one of
the highest in the state for renting
and for buying, Bloom said.
The Affordable Housing Task
Force's goal is to look for direction
in future Ann Arbor housing, be-
ginning with stabilizing housing
prices and rents and working with
Ypsilanti residents to provide af-
fordable housing.
"The forum is primarily geared
toward solutions to affordable
housing needs," Bloom said. "We
want our decisions to reflect the
full strata of the population.".
A3 2000 officials stress educa-
tion about current conditions and
future opportunities as a key for
the city residents. A3 2000 pro-
vides public forums to allow Ann
Arbor citizens to participate in city
activities.
"One of the characteristics of
Ann Arbor is its diversity," said
Councilmember Ingrid Sheldon,
(R-Second Ward). "It will be diffi-

cult to arrive at a consensus in this
community. There are always pulls
and tugs to decide which projects
are best and try to be achieved
first."
The founders of A3 2000 envi-
sioned projects ranging from nature
conservation to better health, park-
ing, and street conditions. The
original plan, titled Future Image
Scenarios, described Ann Arbor as
some day having no potholes,
maintaining downtown vitality
while keeping a small-town image,
and creating a drug-free city where
marital rape would be a crime.
"The future we get is largely up
to us," stated the document, "to
how well we can plan and work to
move from image to reality for
Ann Arbor's future." That complies
with the A3 2000 slogan,
"Choosing Our Future Together."
The Quality Government Task
Force desires a "truly representa-
tive government" with a balanced
budget and which confers with
other city governments.
"I sit on Council and see one
project take three years," Sheldon
said. "The subgroups (of A3 2000)
that have stayed together are doing

a great job."
"Perhaps they (A3 2000) coulk
study making Councilmember
terms four years instead of two,"
she said. "The problem with hav-
ing an election every year is that
we never have 100 percent of the
officials' attention; they're either
recovering from a campaign or
planning the next."
For some projects, the future
has arrived.
The Network of Youth Servic-
ing Agencies Task Force has#
worked with more than 40 different
youth agencies. They compare.
what agencies are doing and watch
for outstanding programs to learn
from.
The North Main/Huron River
Beautification Task Force cleaned
garbage along N. Main St. on June
27, 1987, and the Affordable Hous-
ing Task Force co-sponsored a'
Housing Roundtable Oct. 23, 1987.'
There are 11 task force sponsors,
including American Red Cross, Ann;
Arbor Public Schools, and the
University.
"It is rare to develop a forum for*
public discussion in a rational way,"
Sheldon said. -'

Continued from page 1
Posing as University President,
LSA senior LaTrice Dixon
explained that the takeover of the
public comments session was
necessary to allow students to air
their views freely.
"Student organizations and
activists on campus are tired of not
being listened to by the regents
and President Duderstadt," she

said after the public comments
session. "We felt that none of the
causes of these groups were being
taken seriously."

that the increased room and board

Interim Vice President for

defended the rate increase by
saying the additional revenue
would fund new residence hall
programs. The Union would house
these new programs, including one
to promote community service
among students, she explained.
Other regents expressed

Marvin Seline, assistant dean for
administration in the School of
Public Health, said the administra-
tion indicated that extensive time
should not be put into new budget
requests this year because many
items will not be possible to grant.
"It's our understanding that there
are not going to be extra requests,"
Seline said. "Those are the orders we

The basic conflict is that
Dawson sees MSA's power as
ultimately coming from the
Regents, Gauthier said.
"The University only
recognizes MSA's Constitution to
the extent that they want to," he
added.

their assertion, but that it was not

session.
Regent Neal Nielsen (R-
Brighton) said, "I think they don't-
have proper social graces to
warrant discussion ... This is not
the appropriate manner of
delivery."
Other regents took a more light
hearted view of the situation.
Regent Phillip Power (D-Ann;
Arbor) said the imposters' actions
were acceptable. "If they want to
dramatize a point, it's fine with',
me."
Swain's programs would perpetu-
ate the "politically correct"
atmosphere which they perceive to
be infiltrating the campus. ' 0
"Students resent political
orthodoxy," said Regent Deane
Baker (R-Ann Arbor). "These
programs build a basic component
of resentment of what the
University views as a politically
correct point of view. If these
programs are going to expand that
kind of orthodoxy, we should know
about it."
Womack said the requests he was
going to submit to the provost were
similar to last year's.
"For years, the University has
reallocated within its resources. But,
I think in the years ahead it will be
necessary to find more creative ways
to do the things that must be done,"
Womack said. One suggestion he
offered was taking some of the work
and red tape out of the University
system.
Art School Dean Marjorie Levy 2
said she is not counting on receiving
the majority of the requests she
made, but that the proposals can
serve other purposes.

MSA Constitution.
According to Dawson's letter,
MSA's Constitution is not A
inconsistent with the Provost's
committee because both are
consistent with the "spirit and;
intent" of Regental Bylaw 7.05(1)
which says: "Student participation
in University decision-making is
important to the quality of student
life at the University, and shall be
encouraged."
"We can't compel cooperation'
and participation," Dawson said.
"We can invite and welcome it;I
and I think we have. I don't know':
what more could have been done."

WE, THE UNDERSIGNED FACULTY AND STAFF AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN, CONDEMN THE
WAR IN THE MIDDLE EAST AND PLEDGE TO MAKE KNOWN OUR OPPOSITION TO IT. WE DEPLORE:
(1) THE PLACING AT RISK OF THE PEOPLES OF THE REGION AND ALL THE TROOPS INVOLVED; (2)
THE DISPROPORTIONATE NUMBER OF THE POOR AND OF PEOPLE OF COLOR FIGHTING THE WAR;
AND (3) THE RISE OF ANTI-ARAB, ANTI-ARAB-AMERICAN AND ANTI-JEWISH ATTACKS AT HOME.
ALTHOUGH WE HOLD DIVERSE OPINIONS ABOUT THE CAUSES OF THE MIDDLE EAST CRISIS AND
WAYS TO RESOLVE IT, WE ARE UNITED IN URGING THE CAMPUS COMMUNITY TO PROTEST THE U.S.
WAR POLICY IN ANY WAY APPROPRIATE, TO COOPERATE WITH STUDENT AND COMMUNITY
COALITIONS OPPOSED TO THE WAR, AND TO WORK TOWARD A PROMPT AND PEACEFUL RESOLU-
TION TO THE CRISIS.
