II I I ! I LocAL/STATL The Michigan Daily - Wednesday, September 6, 1995 - 7A Judge rules against student in suit over 'U' discipline ELIZABETH LIPPMAN/Daily Tle ilveisity spent more than $80,000 on promotions for the Mcard such as this banner, which hangs over State Street. MCARD ContnseW from Page IA of little use. "I already have a checking account at my own bank," VanSuilichem said. LSA first-yearstudent Matt Lake has linkedhis Mcardtohis First ofAmerica account and says his transactions have gone smoothly. 'What happened to my Entr6ee Plus?' To students, the BankStripe has been one of the most confusing func- tions of the card - that stripe on the old student ID cards was used only for Entrde Plus, and many returning stu- dents have asked, "What happened to my Entr6e Plus?" Entr6ePlus is still arqund-and also encodedonthe Mcard's magnetic stripe - but is only accepted at a select few on-campus locations, including the U Club, residence halls, dining halls and vending machines, and the snack bars. The BankStripe is accepted at 36 businesses,includingCondoms 101 and all Amer's locations. However,the CashChip-the card's newest function - is accepted at 72 locations. That chip is not linked to any bank account. Users put money on the chip at Mcard machines located on cam- pus. McDonald's on South University Avenue is one of the businesses that accepts the Mcard's Cashchip. "We're still getting the hang of it," said Manager Sonny Felton. The largest smartcard program in the country The CashChip, which Russell calls the most technologically advanced fea- ture of the card, is set to be used in Atlanta on special Olympic "smartcards," so called because of the variety of functions the card offers. By using hand-held chip readers, delivery staff of local restaurants that accept the card will be able to scan users' cards in their homes or dorms. The University touts the Mcard as the largest smartcard program in the coun- try. The card serves as a library card, AT&T phone card, First of America ATM card, Entree Plus card, student ID card, copy card and will soon serve as a bus token chip card on Ann Arbor Tran- sit Authority buses. The "Mcard Bus," sponsored by the University, AT&T, First of America and AATA, is the largest advertisement for the program. Mcard has also been publicized through ban- ners on State Street and South Uni- versity Avenue. Russell estimated that $80,000 to $90,000 was spent on the Mcard adver- tising campaign, which also included fliers and information packets distrib- uted to students, along with frisbees and T-shirts distributed in the Fish- bowl. "We wanted the merchants to know that the University is really into this program and promote a good working relationship with the business commu- nity," Russell said. The cost of each card to the Univer- sity is $5- almost $3 more than the old student ID cards - but the cost to replace a lost card will still be $10. Russell said most of the card's cost comes from the CashChip. However, with revenues from the card - which the University will not disclose - the program should more than pay for itself, Russell said.

By James Nash Daily Staff Reporter Whatever the flaws in the disciplin- ary procedure the University used to expel Marc Schauber from his resi- dence hail last year, the University acted correctly in punishing the sophomore, Judge Kurtis Wilder ruled in April. Wilder acknowledged that the pro- cess "may not have been perfect," but concluded that threats Schauber made to his ex-fiancee - a resident of the same dormitory - warranted the University's action. Schauber was expelled from the Mosher Jordan residence hall in March 1994, following a series of contacts he initiated with his former fiancee that she deemed threatening. In one conversa- tion, Schauber told the woman that he thought of hitting her and throwing her offofabridge in front of moving traffic. The woman charged Schauber with stalking and harassment in a disciplin- ary action through the Housing Divi- sion. She was initially represented by Monique Washington, who also acted as the University's hearing officer in the case. Schauber's lawyer, Tom Daniels of Ypsilanti, argued that Wash- ington was clearly prejudiced in favor oftheex-fiancee. That bias was strength- ened by Washington's contacts with the woman's parents, Daniels claimed. Washington contended that herphone conversations with the parents -some as long as 47 minutes -- were intended to explain procedural issues related to the disciplinary hearing. "... I was trying to bring a reasonable amount of distance between the two of us," she said of the woman'smother, "but at the same time respond to what I felt was a parental concern as an administrator." But in court, Washington conceded that she had discussed other issues with the woman's parents, including Schauber's mental state and his pos- sible use of the psychiatric drug Prozac. Wilder rebuked Washington for dis- cussing Prozac with the woman's par- ents, but concluded that that informa- tion alone did not tilt the University's case against Schauber. "In the present case (and in the fu- Jan. 17, 1994 Marc Schauber is told in a meeting with Mosher Jordan Resident Director Paul Danao that his ex-fiancee is not comfortable in Schauber's presence. - Danao suggested a meeting with the three parties and would call back Schauber. Schauber called Danao repeatedly and was told that he was woring on it. Jan. 24,1994 Schauber met with Ellen H. Whitten, the coordinator of residence education, and was shown the incident report and the complaint form that they discussed. Jan. 25,1994 Whitten sent letter to Schauber saying he was on residence hail probation. He left a message on the answering machine of Darlene Ray Johnson, assistant director of student relations, asking her to call him back. Jan. 31, 1994 Schauber met with Whitten about her actions which she apologized for 'not following proper procedure and for taking a one-sided view of the matter." Schauber was asked to sign the incident report, complaint form and judicial record, but'he deferred and wanted a copy of each of them because he wanted to consult on them. Feb. 7,1994 Schauber was called by Monique Washington, assistant director of residence education. She told him of the harassment complaint and eventually scheduled a hearing on Feb. 15 after telling Schauber that his ex-fianc e was -hesitant" about being at the hearing. Feb.11,1994 A letter was received by Schauber" stating that Washington would serve a both "hearing officer" and the "complainant" at the hearing. Schauber's lawyer also requested a copy of the complaint but Washington was "unsure if this could be done." Feb. 15,1994 Minutes before the hearng Scheuber was iven a copy of the incident repots and e judicial record. There was no complaint, but Schauber was told that the incident record would serve as the complaint. Schauber wanted to get the hearin over with and therefore waived the rgt to postpone the hearing. Washgton told Schauber the woman would receive the final declsion only and not Information about the sanction. March 3.,1994 thsacon Schauber finds out that his ex4iancft received the decision, including the sanction information.. two days before he did. The decision was that Schauter was to acate his room by March 7. Schauber made sure that he would not be physically removed on March 7 and "confirmed his absolute right to remain in his room while an appeal was fied and decided." He also signed a leaset for a room for '94-95 school year which was voided by he Housin The initial appeal was officially si and dated and received by Schaur..b He was told to vacate his room no later than March 16. Again he had to confirm that he would not be physically removed because of the appeal was pending.

"Since the findings and sanctions in this case are+ supported by the evidence presented during the hearing, however, these ad- ditional safeguards would have added very little, if any, protection against error," he wrote. Daniels disagreed. "The ultimate deci- sion was Monique Washington's. It is our position that she was clearly influenced by this exparte communication," he said. On March 9, Schauber filed an ap- peal to Washington's Feb. 25 decision to expel him from Mosher Jordan. Later that month, Schauber's appeal was de-a nied by an appellate hearing officer who called Washington's decision "an adequate balance between allowing (Schauber) to remain in the residence halls and lease termination." His final appeal alsowasstruck down. Schauber then filed suit in Washtenaw County Circuit Court. Under sanctions in effect until lay 1996, Schauber cannot enter Mosher Jor- dan without prior University approval. He also is barred from contacting the woman. Daniels expressed disappointment with Wilder's ruling, but said it was not unexpected. The lawyer said he would not appeal the decision. Schauber "has made other living ar- rangements," Daniels said. "Because of the lapse of time, we decided that an appeal would not be worthwhile." r l I Y OPERATIONS ASSISTANT needed part rims, 15 to 20 hrs, in small educational publishin$ office near campus.
