Every Friday, The Michigan 
Daily will be republishing an 
article from the Daily’s archives 
from a moment in University 
history. 

October 31, 1990 
— Ghastly 

ghouls and spooky sights are 
sure to attract scary souls 
tonight. 

That is if you’re not too old 

for Halloween. 

Unfortunately for horrific-

minded but responsible 
students, Halloween falls on 
a midweek evening amidst 
midterm anxiety. As a result, 
some of the fun has to wait 
until the weekend. 

“Halloween comes at a 

bad time this year,” said LSA 
sophomore Jonathon Marx. 
“I haven’t even thought of 
going out, especially since I 
have a midterm. Besides, most 
people either celebrated it last 
weekend or will this weekend.” 

Last weekend did not 

lack activities. East Quad 
did the “Halloween Thang” 
and R.O.T.C. sponsored its 
annual Haunted House before 
hundreds of scary souls. 

In spite of midterms, a 

multitude of parties have 
worked their way into students’ 
calendars this week. Among 
the Halloween personalities 
appearing this week are 
Phantom of the Opera, 
Medussa and the New Kids on 
the Block. 

Fantasy Attic, a popular 

costumer in Ann Arbor, is not 
surprised by their excellent 
sales this season. Lindsay 
James, a sales assistant, 
said “Dick Tracy, Breathless 
Mahoney and the Teenage 
Mutant Ninja Turtles are the 
hot in demand this year. Pirates 
are always a favorite, too.”

Big kids aren’t holding a 

monopoly on fun in Ann Arbor 
this week. Residence halls, such 
as Mary Markley, East Quad 
and Stockwell, are taking part 
in Trick-or-Treating activities 
for local children. Student 
residents who signed up are 
visited by area kids making the 
candy rounds. 

First-year LSA student 

and East Quad resident Jun 
Pangilinan is taking part in the 
festivities. He said “I thought 
it’d be nice to watch the kids 
Trick-or-Treating since I’m 
no longer doing it myself.” His 
intentions are less than noble, 
however, as he added, “Besides, 
I get to keep the candy left-
overs.”

Music enthusiasts eagerly 

await the School of Music’s 
annual Halloween Concert 
tonight. The fun is slated to 
begin at 9 p.m. as the University 
Philharmonic Orchestra 

performs skits and ensembles 
before a sold-out audience at 
Hill Auditorium. Free tickets 
were distributed within two 
hours of availability weeks ago. 

“It should be really fun,” said 

School of Music sophomore 
Jennifer Fari Ansel. “Everyone, 
including some of the audience, 
comes dressed in costumes. 
Some of the sections are 
coming as a group. I’m excited 
to see the flutes in their ZZ Top 
skit.”

Yet, amidst the fun, the 

environmental concerns of 
the 1990’s are not forgotten. 
LSA senior Elizabeth Steel 
said “the weirdest costume at 
East Quad’s Halloween Thang 
would have to be the guy who 
came dressed in non-recyclable 
plastic.” 

It must have been a scary 

sight to behold.

FRIDAY’S BICENTENNIAL FEATURE: SPOOKY FESTIVITIES BREW TONIGHT
HALLOWEEN SERVES TO FRIGHTEN AND EXCITE

field sites primarily in Southeast 

Michigan help MSW students 
apply their knowledge learned in 
the classroom to a real position in 
their field of interest.

The U.S. Department of Labor’s 

Fair Labor Standards Act outlines 
six requirements an internship “in 
the ‘for-profit’ private sector” must 
meet for a position to be unpaid. 
According to these standards, the 
requirements include: internship 
positions reflect an educational 
environment, 
no 
immediate 

employer advantages from said 
internship work and the internship 
does not displace employees in 
favor of unpaid internship labor. 
Raycraft said the School of Social 
Work’s field education requirement 
meets these six points through the 
field education’s association with 
the University, structure around 
classroom 
learning, 
University 

oversight and credit allocation.

The program also requires 

agreements between the school, 
the company and the student to 
make sure the field education 

program stays in line with the U.S. 
standards for unpaid internships.

Raycraft said this field education 

requirement is different from an 
internship in that the programs 
MSW students are placed in reflect 
their educational interests, not the 
workforce needs of the employer 
sponsoring the position.

“An 
MSW 
student 
has 

an 
academic 
agreement 
and 

they’re created for each student 
individually,” Raycraft said. “It’s 
giving them the opportunity to 
apply their knowledge that they’re 
learning in classes and to gain 
practical skills, so it’s an extension 
of the classroom. It’s associated 
with academic programs, not with 
the employer … that’s the biggest 
distinction.”

Both the Fair Labor Standards 

Act and the Social Work School’s 
requirements for field placement 
positions 
reflect 
Raycraft’s 

statement that no field education 
position should take the place 
of regular, salaried employees. 
However, this is what Social Work 
student Erica Watson, School 
of Social Work Student Union 
vice president and Fair Labor 
Organizing 
is 
claiming 
often 

happens. Watson said though the 

learning contracts between the 
MSW student and the employer are 
sound from the beginning, often 
these field education positions 
morph into unpaid labor.

“We know that technically we 

are not supposed to be replacing 
regular employees and I think 
that when the School of Social 
Work goes to these placements to 
place us, that’s sort of the agreed 
upon thing but we hear again and 
again and again, from students, 
we’ve heard, ‘After I left my field 
placement, they hired somebody 
full-time with a health care 
package to do the exact same job 
as me’ or, ‘My supervisor was on 
maternal leave and I actually had 
to pick up all of her responsibilities 
while she was gone,’ ” Watson said.

To discuss methods of how the 

Social Work School can provide 
MSW students with more stipends 
and paid positions that satisfy 
the field education requirement, 
Watson and other MSW students 
created FLO. It became an official 
organization this past June and was 
recently made into a subcommittee 
of the School of Social Work 
Student Union. FLO’s survey was 
sent out over the summer on the 
School of Social Work listserv and 
from their responses to the survey, 
FLO has been working on the 
promotion of paid labor for MSW 
students.

Working a part-time job and 

being a student at the University 
of Michigan is not uncommon, 
with 52.5 percent of in-state 
students and 6.3 percent of out-of-
state students reporting they pay 
for everyday expenses like food 
with a student job, found a survey 
conducted 
by 
The 
Michigan 

Daily earlier this year. However, 
Watson said the program’s 912 
field placement hours requirement 
often results in students working 
unpaid positions, going to class 
and having to find outside jobs to 
pay for rent and food.

Watson cited the University’s 

Higher 
Education 
graduate 

program, whose required two-
term internship program most 
often includes a paid hourly 
stipend, as a branch of the 
University she believes from which 
the School of Social Work should 
draw inspiration. She said as the 
number-one-ranked social work
