commission to study teacher availability

The appointment of a 24-member Commission on teacher availability was approved by the EMU Board of Regents recently.

President John W. Porter told the Regents that there is a grow­ing concern among school ad­ministrators in Michigan and across the nation that an impending teacher shortage will force the state to lower stan­dards to maintain teacher/pupil ratios. Current shortages are most acute in science and mathematics, he said.

"As the largest teacher train­ing institution in the state and the fourth largest in the nation, EMU should be at the forefront of developing new strategies for attracting students into the field of teaching and providing incen­tives for those who have degrees to return to the campus for refresher programs that would prepare them to assume respon­sible teaching positions," Porter said.

The new commission will in­clude eleven representatives from

K-12 education, two other educators, �ix representatives from business and industry, two civic leaders and three represen­tatives from business and in­dustry, two civic leaders and three representatives from the EMU College of Education (the dean, the chairperson of the College of Education Council and a member of the University Council on Teacher Education).

The commission will be charged with examining EMU's teacher education programs within the context of the educa­tional reform movement and the growing demand for teachers and with developing specific recommendations which will enable the college to strengthen its historic role as a major con­tributor to the quality of educa­tion in Michigan and in the nation.

The commission is expected to complete its work by the end of May 1986. A final report with recommendations should be made to the Board of Regents no later than August 1986.

"Waltz of the Toreadors," is held over for two performances Friday, Sept. 6 at 8 p.m. and Sunday, Sept. 8 at 2:30 p.m. in Quirk Theater. Call Quirk Theater Box Office at 7-1221 for ticket information.

FOCUS EMU 7

Focus on Faculty ____ _ Economics professor puts theory to work

When Dr. John E. Anderson agreed to take a year's leave of absence from his teaching duties at EMU to serve as Michigan's Deputy Treasurer for Tax and Economic Policy, State Treasurer Robert Bowman - the man Anderson is now advising -had a question for him.

"Are you ready to come to Lansing and put to work all that stuff you teach, all that high­powered theory?" he asked Anderson, a 34-year-old associate professor of economics. "Is there any way to make it practical and make it work in the state of Michigan?"

After more than a decade of studying urban economics, Anderson's answer is "yes. "

"Basic principals still work," he said. "But you have to take the economic theory and overlay it with what's going on politically."

Anderson will be doing plenty of that this month when the state legislature re-convenes after the summer recess. As one of two deputy treasurers under Bowman, he will advise the treasurer - who answers direct­ly to Governor James Blanchard - on issues concerning tax policy.

A big issue is Blanchard's Tax Fairness Plan, a measure that was still being debated in the Senate when the legislature ad­journed for summer recess in July. The debate will no doubt be renewed, and one of Ander­son's duties will be to advise Bowman on the overall plan, the changes already passed by the House and any alterations sug­gested by the Senate. The plan would, among other things, relieve some of the state's pro­perty tax burden and roll back the rate at which state income taxes are raised.

Anderson finds the prospect of being involved in that policy debate exciting. "Tax reform

seems to be one of the major issues in the public policy arena right now, " he said, relaxing in his Pray-Harrold office. "The governor's plan would represent a substantial reform of the state's tax system, and the mood is right for discussion of tax reform. I can't think of any better timing than to be going to Lansing now. ' '

Anderson, a trim man who wears glasses and a well- kept beard that matches his dark hair, also will be required to perform routine analyses of the state's income tax. Beyond that, he'll look at many issues of special concern to him, such as the sales tax, the single business tax and the concept of enterprise zones, which are areas that receive favorable tax treatment to encourage businesses to locate there.

Anderson has been researching for 12 years, something he started in earnest when he took his bachelor of arts degree from Western Michigan University and enrolled in Claremont Graduate School in Claremont, Calif., in 1973. And although his work has already covered considerable ground, there are still areas related to taxes he hasn't fully delved into. At the top of his list is the sales tax. Many states have higher sales taxes than Michigan's, which is four percent. Anderson thinks it's worth looking into.

"I'm not suggesting we ought to raise it," he said, "But I am suggesting we study it, analyze how it works and see whether it's generating revenue in a fair way. We modified it a few years back when we took the sales tax off food in order to make it a fairer tax. We need to look at those kinds of issues.

"There may be some issues related to Michigan cities too," he said. "Cities in Michigan are permitted to levy a city income

-

John Anderson

tax, and there are about 16 that do. But nobody has analyzed the idea of cities implementing their own sales tax."

Anderson calls the idea a "regional sales tax," where a group of four or five countries, for instance, would have its own sales tax. He suggests such a tax would relieve some of the pro­perty tax burden and might even help prevent what he calls "strangle" population patterns that city income taxes help create.

Anderson's research background makes him well­suited for the in-depth studies he proposes. But is he suited for the politics involved?

"I'm excited by the pro-

spect," he said. "To go in for a relatively short period of time, have an impact on public policy and then come back to academics - I'm looking for­ward to seeing what that's all about. Hopefully, having some influence on helping form tax policy will make me a better in­structor - sort of the best of both worlds. But I must admit that I'm not fully aware of what I'm getting into. So there's a certain amount of apprehension.

"My long-run interest is, of course, in academics, " he went on. "I don't see myself as the kind of person who is a career civil servant. "

Progress made in Affirmative Action goals Progress has been made in

meeting Affirmative Action goals here during the past nine months, the Board of Regents was told at its August meeting.

Between Oct. I , 1984, and June 30, 1985, the number of employees at EMU increased from 1 ,569 to 1 , 597. The number of male employees in­creased from 802 to 822 while the number of females increased from 767 to 775. However, the percentage of females declined slightly from 48. 9 percent to 48.5 percent. The number of black employees increased from 154 (9.8 percent) to 164 (10.3 percent) and the number of minority employees, including blacks, increased from 212 (13.5 percent) to 222 (13.9 percent).

Underutilization of females in­creased from 92 to 95 positions, but the underutilization of blacks decreased from 29 to 25 positions and of minorities from 36 to 32 positions.

During this interim audit period, 232 positions were filled, 149 by females and 83 by males. Some 25 percent of the positions were filled by minorities, in­cludung 42 blacks (18 . 1 percent), eight Hispanics (3.4 percent), five Asian/Pacific Islanders (2.2 percent) and three American Indian/ Alaskan Natives (1 .3 percent).

Staff positions at the Universi­ty decreased from 958 to 957.

The number of males decreased from 376 to 375. The number of females remained constant at 582 (60.8 percent). The number of black employees increased from 137 (14.3 percent) to 143 (14.9 percent). The number of minority employees, including blacks, increased from 160 (16.7 percent) to 170 (17. 8 percent).

EOUAL EMPLOYMENT

OPPORTUNITY

Underutilization of females in­creased from 17 to 19 positions, but the underutilization of blacks decreased from 1 1 to 9 positions and of minorities from 13 to 10 positions.

The Executive Division has met all of its staff Affirmative Action goals. The Divisions of Business and Finance and Stu­dent Affairs have made progress

toward meeting their goals. The Academic Affairs Division shows no change in meeting its goals, while the University Rela­tions Division shows a lack of progress in meeting its goals. This is due primarily to a reorganization of the division resulting in higher goals combin­ed with a lack of hiring oppor­tunities during the interim audit period.

The number of faculty members employed at the University increased from 6 1 1 to 640. The number of males in­creased from 426 to 447 and the number of females increased from 185 to 193. However, the percentage of females declined slightly from 30.3 to 30.2 per­cent. The number of black faculty increased from 17 (2.8 percent) to 21 (3.3 percent) and the number of total minority faculty remained constant at 52, a percentage decline from 8.5 to 8 . 1 percent.

Underutilization of females in the faculty increased from 75 to 76 positions, while underutiliza­tion of black faculty decreased from 18 to 16 positions and of total minority faculty from 23 to 22 positions.

The Colleges of Arts and Sciences, Business and Educa­tion showed progress in meeting their faculty Affirmative Action goals. There was no change in

the College of Health and Human Services, and the Col­lege of Technology and the Center of Educational Resources showed a lack of progress in meeting their goals.

The final audit of the 1985 Affirmative Action Plan will be made as of Oct. l , 1985. Cur­rently, the University has 94 vacancies, 21 faculty positions, 40 administrative/technical/pro­fessional positions, 30 secretar­ial/clerical positions, two food service/maintenance positions and one public safety position. Positions filled between now and Oct. 1 , 1985, will be included in the final audit.

corporate Training center 'closer to reality' Some summers are relatively quiet on the EMU campus. The student head count is lower then in fall and winter and many faculty and staff take their vaca­tions. This past summer, however, was an exception. Many University projects moved closer to reality and there were other significant changes. In late summer, the Corporate Training Center got a "shot in the art" in the form of a federal grant. The city of Ypsilanti received a $2.1 million Urban Development Action Grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The grant will be used to help finance the construction of the Corporate Training Center, to be operated by EMU, and a privately owned high-tech hotel in the Huron Center, located at

, lo. I-94 and Whittaker Road in Ypsilanti Township. Details of what portion of the grant will go to the Corporate Training Center and what portion to the hotel have yet to be worked out. Roy Wilbanks, EMU vice president for university relations, was the individual who spearheaded the joint effort be­tween the University, the city of Ypsilanti and Ypsilanti Township to develop and secure financing for the project. At a press conference in late summer, Wilbanks said he hoped to go to the University's Board of Regents in early fall with a lease agreement, an agreement with the Department of Housing and Urban Development on a schedule for repaying the loan and a recommendation to begin construction. The Corporate Training Center received two major cor­porate gifts just prior to the city receiving the federal grant. The gifts include $50,000 from the Chrysler Corporate Fund and $25,000 from the Michigan Bell Telephone Company. EMU President John W. Porter said the two gifts were a major first step towards achievirtg the University's current goal of Events

$600,000 in private support for the project. In August, the Washtenaw Higher Education Consortium, comprised of Cleary College, Concordia College, EMU, the University of Michigan and Washtenaw Community College, announced its commitment to establish a downtown Ypsilanti office and assist in the economic development of the greater Ypsilanti area. EMU's Institute for Community and Regional Development (ICARD) will serve as the host institution in the downtown Ypsilanti office. Initially, the consortium will assist the Ypsilanti Downtown Development Authority, the Main Street Program staff, Ypsilanti City Council, the Ypsilanti Area Chamber of Comrperce, downtown mer­chants and area governmental officials in attracting businesses, service agencies and other ven -tures to fill approximately 40,000 square feet of vacant space in downtown Ypsilanti. In addition to serving as host in­stitution, ICARD will run as many of its projects as possible from the consortium offices. In late July, EMU was recognized by the American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU). Two teacher education programs were among 17 winners in the AASCU's first "Showcase for Excellence" awards program. Eastern was the only university to win two awards and the only Michigan university recognized. EMU's winners were the "Preservice Elementary Teacher Education Program in Science." and the Staff Development for School Improvement Program (SDSI). At the state level, Eastern received an appropriation in­crease for 1985-86. EMU will receive $48,916,294, an increase of $5,638,294 or 13.03 percent over the 1984-85 appropriation of $43,278,000. The appropria­tion includes the 1984-85 base of $43,278,000, $2,163,900 to cover

a five percent inflation rate, $865,560 for the two percent tui­tion stabilization program, $315,100 for a new facilities opening (Olds Student Recrea­tion Center), $268,320 for in­structional equipment, $400,000 for the Research Excellence and Economic Development Fund, $130,000 for the Language and International Trade Program, and $1,495,414 to be used for program revision requests, in­cluding $250,000 for parking lot acquisition. The University is operating under an interim General Fund Budget totaling $70,494,824, which was approved at the June Regents meeting. The interim budget includes an continuation of the 1984-85 General Fund Operating Base Budget, which totaled $69,952,861, and two previously approved increases, $289,522 for the Cooperative Education Program and $252,441 for the Intercollegiate Athletic Program. The continuation of last year's budget was necessary because of several unresolved fiscal issues. For the second year in a row, the University has frozen tuition for the coming academic year. The current undergraduate rates are $45. 75 per credit hour for Michigan and Ohio residents, $112 for non-residents. Graduate school rates are $63 per credit hour for residents and $147 for non-residents. Summer enrollment here was up from last year's figures in every category. The figures were compiled at the one-tenth reporting date (July 5) and show that total enrollment increased from 4,339 in 1984 to 4,661 this past summer, an increase of 322 students or seven percent. When that total increase is broken down into undergraduate and graduate figures, the jump is seven percent on both counts. More than l 00 talented and gifted high school students from throughout Michigan enjoyed two weeks on the EMU campus in July. In addition to classroom

activities, the students heard Broadway and film star Jeff Daniels and civil rights activist Rosa Parks. This was Eastern's second year to host the Summer Institute, funded by the Michigan State Board of Education. Two EMU faculty members received state assignments over the summer. Dr. John E. Anderson, associate professor of economics, was appointed Deputy Treasurer of Tax and Economic Policy for the State of Michigan. He is on a one­year leave of absence from the

University to serve the state. As one of two deputy treasurers, Anderson will advise State Treasurer Robert Bowman and Governor James Blanchard on issues concerning tax policy. And Robert S. Corredera, ex­ecutive adviser for�ternational management studies, was ap­pointed to Michigan's District Export Council. That council is one of the nation's 51 working closely with the Department of Commerce to support export ex­pansion. Corredera 's term will expire June 30, 1987. Faculty Council Corner _____ " ____ _

President�lect of the Faculty Council for 1985-86 is Dr. James Devers, professor in the English Language and Literature Department. He succeeds Dr. Sandra McClennen, who has served two terms as president of this body. Devers is a native of California who earned all three of his degrees from UCLA. His specialty is American Literature, and within that specialty, Herman Melville. His disserta­tion was titled, Melancholy, Myth and Symbolism in Benito Cereno: An Interpretive Study. He has been a member of the English Department at Eastern since 1968. According to Devers, Eastern will have a productive year if "we can build on the successes of the past." We need, he says, ''to renew union contracts without rancor, to support Eastern Energy, to fully fund outstanding programs such as Honors, to replace and upgrade instructional equipment, to buy new mainframe computers, to move along with the Corporate

James Devers Training Center and Cross Street development, to attend theater productions in our new theaters, to innovate with active teaching techniques, but most of all, to promote unity and collegiality in an institution that is beginning to believe in itself on all levels."
