Volume 30, Number 6 Produced by Office of Information Servic for faculty and staff at Eastern Michi&an University September 4, 1984 Mid-American conference votes to reinstate EMU The Council of Presidents of the Mid-American Conference voted 10 on Friday, Aug. 3, to reinstate EMU to the con- ference. Eastern was expelled from the conference July 16 when MAC presidents became concerned that the MAC might not be eligible for Division I - A football for the 1985 season. The presidents also voted July 16 to allow EMU to remain in the conference if it dropped football by Aug. 1, 1984, a deadline which was later extend- ed to 5 p.m. Aug. 3. However, the EMU Board of Regents voted Monday, July 30, to maintain the football program and directed the administration to pursue whatever actions were necessary, including legal action, in order for the University to re- main a member of the Mid- American Conference. On Thursday, Aug. 2, the NCAA Administrative Commit- tee issued an opinion which sup- ported EMU's position that the conference could take remedial action following the 1984 season, should it fail to meet Division I - A criteria, and still remain eligible for Division I - A for the 1985 season. A telephone conference of Mid-American Conference presidents was held Friday, Aug. 3, to discuss the NCAA opinion and vote on rescinding their July 16 order. The resolution passed by the presidents said: «Based upon the NCAA Administrative Commit- tee's decision of Aug. 2, 1984, it is hereby moved that the MAC Council of Presidents rescind its action of July 16, 1984, as amended, requiring EMU to either drop football and remain a member of the Mid-American Conference or be removed from the MAC effective Aug. 3, 1984." President John W. Porter said, "We are extremely pleased with the action taken by the Mid-American Conference Council of Presidents. We have been very proud of our affilia- tion with the MAC during the past 13 years, both from an athletic and an academic view- point. We sincerely believe that we have made significant con- tributions both to the image and the quality of the MAC via the breadth and overall strength of our comprehensive program of 22 men's and women's sports. We are committed to continuing our full membership in the MAC, competing in all sports." cross street Project report recomoends initiatives A Cross Street Project report, recommending eight initiatives to be undertaken by EMU to help revitalize the Cross Street area, was received by the Board of Regents at its August meeting.

Affirmative Action council, Advisory committee organized

During the summer, the University's Affirmative Action/ Equal Employment Opportunity Council and Affirmative Action/ Equal Employment Opportunity Advisory Committee announced their respective memberships and held their first meetings.

The Affirmative Action Coun­cil, which will meet bi-weekly, and the Advisory Committee, which will meet monthly, were formed as a result of the recent reorganization of the Universi­ty's Affirmative Action delivery system.

The purpose of the Council is to provide greater participation in the University's affirmative action process, enhance coor­dination of institutional efforts, strengthen communication and enhance public visibility of ongoing institutional affirmative action efforts.

The purpose of the Advisory Committee is to act as an ad­visory body, and improve com­munications with various special interest groups.

Copies of the plan have been distributed to the president, all vice presidents, deans, directors and department heads. Addi­tional copies are available in the Center of Educational Resources, the Personnel Ser­vices Office and the Affirmative Action Office.

The Affirmative Action Plan is an extensive document con­taining general information on affirmative action, non­discrimination guidelines, employment practices, faculty and staff summaries and com-

parisons, hiring and promotions analyses and other related infor­mation. Faculty and staff are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the plan.

To All University Faculty, Staff, and Students: This Affirmative Action Plan is the result of a great deal of

time, effort, and commitment on the part of the campus com­munity. It represents Eastern Michigan University's continued af­firmation of the principles of Equal Employment Opportunity and Affirmative Action. While the University has made strides in attaining the goals set forth in the 1979-80 Plan, the 1983 audit of that Plan clearly reflects that the University must be more dilignet in its efforts.

To support our work in this important area, the University's Board of Regents has recently approved a major reorganization of our Affirmative Action delivery system. Further, the Universi­ty has also adopted a policy to ensure that no discrimination oc­curs in hiring or promotions because of proscribed reasons. It is the policy of Eastern Michigan University, in recognition of the essential rights of all employees and applicants as individuals, to recruit and hire in all job classifications without regard to race, color, sex, marital status, age, religion, national origin or ancestry, Vietnam-Era veteran status, and non-relevant mental or physical handicaps. Further, it is the policy of the University to take affirmative action to ensure that all personnel actions such as rates of compensation, promotion, retirement, transfers, fringe benefits, layoffs, return from layoff, University training pro­grams, and social and recreational programs are administered without regard to race, color, sex, marital status, age, religion, national origin or ancestry, Vietnam-Era veteran status, and non­relevant mental or physical handicaps.

Eastern Michigan University's Affirmative Action Plan seeks to establish programs for improving opportunities for members of the various protected groups. University employees should con­sider the Equal Employment Opportunity and Affirmative Action policies a commitmenc. All pcrwnncl arc expected to become familiar with and support this policy direction.

We cannot do less.

Training

and Development The new Office of Staff Training and Development officially

began operation in August under the direction of Ken Hand­werger. The office will be staffed by Handwerger, an associate (to be hired later this fall), and secretary Kathy Trent. The office is part of Human Resources and is located in 304 King Hall.

The creation of tbe office demonstrates a commitment on the part of the University to its most important and valuable resource-its employees.

The office will provide opportunities for employees to enhance their on-the-job skills to help achieve organizational goals. In ad­dition, programming for personal growth and development will be provided through workshops, seminars and other staff development programs in r�sponse to identified needs.

The training office will not supplant the many diverse training efforts already in place, but will be an additional resource to those individuals, departments, and divisions that are already providing employee training.

A monthly calendar of training events will be distributed to every department beginning later this semester. Activities also will be listed in FOCUS EMU. If you would like your training pro­gram or event included, or wish further information, contact Handwerger at 7--0076.

Eastern Salutes Student Excellen�e Special Focus· EMU Supplement

EMU honor student addresses annual convention Editor's Note: The following speech was made by Ann M. Bo/house, a marketing major, at the 36th Annual Honors Convocation last April.

It is truly an honor to be here today. I really mean that, because I too am an honor student and share with you in the excitement of being honored and recognized as we celebrate outstanding academic achievement together.

i was chosen to represent the College of Business, but I stand here today also representing and specifically addressing all the honor students. I sat out in the audience two years ago and wondered what it would be like to be up here on stage.

I can honestly say-it feels great ! The chairs are soft . . . the leg room is great . . . and it is a great opportunity to announce that I am looking foi:_ a full-time job! But seriously, having people recognize you for all your hard work is a wonder­ful feeling. In fact, this is truly a special day for all of us. And, it is a priveledge for me to be able to congratulate the honor students, knowing what you have gone through to get to this educational plateau.

I have some very special thoughts and genuine feelings that I would like to share with you today. I would like to direct your attention during the next ten minutes fo the side of education that many people never discover.

Today is an appropriate day to have the Honors Convocation; it is the culmination of three weeks of honor society banquets and initiations accepting many of the honor students here today into their memberships. Gathering here in this auditorium also renews our commitment to our goals of scholastic achievement. And, as we recognize honor students, we also honor Eastern Michigan University, for everyone here is a part of what makes Eastern what it ts.

But I feel education is more that just taking classes and getting good grades. An education is learning how to learn. While at Eastern we are constantly reviewing our values, setting personal goals, and striving to establish a high and mean­ingful purpose for our lives.

Certainly, Eastern's main purpose is to expand our knowledge, but Eastern also provides us with hundreds of opportunities that can help us learn more about ourselves, how to interact better with others, and make us aware of our own limitations and abilities. I believe that you wilt find that get­ting involved with extra-curricular activities will offer you this chance.

I believe that being active on campus awards us the opportunities to explore new interests, develop numerous skills, meet new people, grow socially and culturally, and to have an impact on our University community at the same time. If you are already involved with clubs and organizations on campus, or have been recently inducted into one, remind yourself of these opportunities and try not to lose sight of them.

A reality that is often frustrating to us, is that as we become involved, we are rarely recognized for what we are or what we do, but for what we give away. Involvement, in this perspective, is equal to service- service to the University while we are students, and service to the community and our nation once we graduate. Because this activity provides a means for meeting our "own needs" as well as the "needs of others," acheivement follows from service. Achievement, therefore, is an indication of our commitment to personal ex­cellence and growth.

Because there are so many ways to become in­volved, each of us is commissioned to identify the needs of the University, the community and the nation, and prioritize them according to our own personal goals. While we arc at Eastern, being students is our employment. Whenever we fill out applications or tax forms, don't we always fill the occupation slot with "student?" The University is our real world. And, by doing our best now, and making the most out of our experience here at Eastern, 1 belive we will be better people in our post-college years.

Our University encourages us every step of the

way. Like now, for example, just look around you. If Eastern didn't care, certainly none of us would be in this auditorium today. I feel it is im­portant that we return this support.

A few weeks ago, President Porter was quoted in the Ann Arbor News as saying "We've got it. We just have to figure out how to convince people we've got it." In response, I would like to pro­pose that all of us here can make it happen. Nothing will convince the community more than successful Eastern alumni and a list of ac­complishments that make us all feel proud.

Eastern has a lot of things to be proud of. There are 3,263 undergraduate students with at least a 3.0 grade point average being honored here today. And, beyond the scholastic achievement we find quality academics through a wide diversity of programs; highly trained professors; superior facilities like the Old 's Student Recreation Center and the New Alexander Music Building; new 'pro­grams to meet our changing needs; · increasing enrollments; and I especially find the student­teacher relationship enriching.

Many. of you have, or will most likely have a mentor by the time you graduate. Because Eastern encourages interaction between students and their professors, many times a professor will serve as this ever encouraging soul. Our list of prouds, could literally go on for hours.

Student involvement activities can be the basis for a lot of learning - not only as students leaders but as people in our own right. Individual self-development is what our University is all about. It assures our future success and at the same time, improves the University. So, convinc­ing other people we are a great University really lies in our hands. But, before we can do an effec­tive job of that, we must honestly believe it ourselves.

As a marketing major, I recognize that an advertising campaign would help to increase Eastern 's visibility and promote our successes. But, nothing would speak better for our Universi­ty than successful graduates - individuals who are competent and highly motivated employees. Peo­ple who have learned how to interact well with others. People who know their own limitations and abilities. People who are proud of receiving their degree from Eastern Michigan University. People who are better people as a result of both their classroom experience and their extra­curricular involvement.

I have become extremely committed to Eastern, mainly because of my level of involvement and some very special people. I have explored several new areas, developed many skills, met lots of peo­ple, and have grown both socially and culturally. All this makes it so hard for me to leave. But, I can graduate with the feeling that I am well prepared.

Eastern and its people have given me a reason for living, the purpose, the direction and the power from within to continue. Eastern has al­lowed me to develop ideas, plan and organize them, follow them through, and watch them turn out successfully. I have not lived a life of all suc­cesses, and Eastern has helped me to accept criticism and failure and use it to fight and achieve beyond what I normally would have ac­complished, pushing back the very barriers of my own personal limits.

I am proud to graduate from Eastern, but do so with both a smile on my face and a tear in my eye.

I hope your experience will be as great and as rewarding as mine has been. The opportunity is here. Eastern is a great place to live and learn.

Never forget how special you are, to me and to this University. We are all a part of what makes Eastern great !

Thursday, Sept. 13 is the final date to receive a JOO percent tui­tion credit for any load reduc­tion or total withdrawal. An ad­justment fee will be assessed. The 13th is also the final date to declare or remove an "audit" for any course. Final Exam Date Correction

One of EMU's administrative "trouble-shooters" came here 1 I years ago, intent on earning his master's degree then moving on. But, lucky for Eastern, Jim Vick, acting director of Career Services, liked it here and decid­ed to stay.

When he came to EMU in 1973, Vick never dreamed his career would run the gamut from resident unit administrator in Pittman Hall to his present position, with stints as area manager in Housing, manager of University Apartments, manager of University Stores and manager of service opera­tions. He has been assigned to various special projects, in­cluding the recent implementa­tion of Eastern 's new long distance telephone system and has served as acting director of Purchasing.

"I got to where I am today in kind of a round-about way," Vick said. "But l have a good perspective on how all the dif­ferent areas operate. It's been helpful to get an overall view of University functions," he said.

Vick became involved in the telephone switchover through his job in Service Operations, which included managing stores, ship­ping and receiving, surplus, mail, motor pool, laundry, the University safety program and telephones. "At that point, the University's telephone bills were rapidly escalating. My boss (William Smart, director of Plant Operations and University Development) told me to 'take a look at it,' " he said.

Vick eventually became the University ''telephone person'' and carried the responsibility with him to Purchasing. "It still kind of tags along," he added.

Vick said the University really is saving money with the new long distance system, which he projected as part of the overall plan while working as manager of service operations. "I would guess the University sees an an­nual savings of $75,000 to $100,000. We pay a little with some decrease in the quality of service, depending on the type of lines we rent,'' he said. "The switch to lnfonet is the second phase of the overall phone system plan, intended to provide some relief to the University's long distance bill. The third phase is to investigate the pur­chase of our own phone system," he added.

Although Vick has been asked to tackle a number of difficult tasks during his tenure at EMU, he has only positive feelings about those experiences. "Those types of jobs are more fun. It's more interesting to work with something where you 're learning

· · all the time rather than doing the same routine tasks," he said.

His agreeable personality also facilitates his trouble-shooter role. "I get along well with most of the people here, and I tend to be pretty straightforward. I think most people appreciate that," Vick said. "In every area l 've worked, the staff has always been enjoyable and pro­fessional. When you come right down to it, I guess the reason you stay here is that you like the people," he added.

Vick's love of challenge also spills over into his personal life. He is part owner of, and a general partner in, several real estate· and fast food businesses. "Before I moved to Michigan, I had two old houses in Ohio that I fixed up and sold, then in­vested the profits in a donut business. Since then, those com­panies have bought a couple of new stores," he said.

"Here in Michigan, I bought

a couple of rental properties to add to the family income," Vick added. "My dad owns his own business and the family has been involved in various businesses, so I always had some outside in­terest," he said.

"My dad is a frugal, Eastern European-type, very conscious of being organized and efficient. I think you learn those things from your parents. He's one of the Horatio Alger types, not on a grand scale, but on a small scale, a self-made person . . . I think l 'm kind of the same way in my own life," Vick said.

With his typical enthusiasm, Vick is ready for the challenges as acting director of Career Ser­vices. "1 'll enjoy this job because of the contact with students and the 'outside world, ' " he said.

"I also look forward to the challenge of managing a large staff and budget. This job is more in the mainstream of the University; you educate students so they can go out in the world of work and be successful," he added.

Based on Vick's successes, that concept must be quite familiar to him.

Research __ _ New Contract Review Procedures Instituted

The amount of contracting done by the University has increas­ed substantially in the last year, particularly in the area of spon­sored projects. This increased activity has led the Department of Human Resources and the Office of Research Development to establish new legal review procedures for all sponsored project agreements. The review will ensure that the University's interests are protected and that the contracts are being properly executed.

Under the new procedures, the Office of Research Develop­ment will develop and negotiate the sponsored agreements. Human Resources will then conduct a legal review of the docu­ment, focusing on issues such as liability, publication and copyrights and licenses and patents. The review will take 7-10 days to complete. The final draft of the agreement will be prepared by ORD and sent by Human Resources to the ap­propriate University officials for .signature. Once signed, ORD will send the agreement to the sponsor and will monitor contract implementation and completion.

Project directors can facilitate the contracting process by noti­fying the Office of Research Development as soon as a contract is needed. Project directors should not negotiate the terms of an agreement nor sign the contract on behalf of the University. Also, they should allow sufficient time for the contract develop­ment and review process to be completed before starting the pro­ject. (fhe entire process can take as long as 30 days).

Questions about the new procedures should be directed to the Office of Research Development at 7 -3090. Carnegie Corporation Develops New Grant Programs

Carnegie Corporation has developed four new grant programs to address the problems posed by rapid technological change. These programs are: ( ! ) Toward Healthy Child Development: Prevention of Damage to Children; (2) Education: Science, Technology and the Economy; and (3) Avoiding Nuclear War; and (4) Human Resources in Developing Countries.

For further information on Carnegie's programs, contact M . Antoinette Schiesler at 7-3090.

Bilingual Education Demonstration Projects The Department of Education is accepting applications to this

program until Oct. 1 1 , 1984. Proposed projects should demonstrate exemplary approaches to programs of bilingual education and the capacity to continue those programs when federal funding is no longer available.

Approximately $ 1 . 7 million will be awarded during 1985. Ap­proximately 30 percent of the available funds will be awarded for projects with exemplary approaches to community or parental in­volvement, another 25 percent for projects with exemplary ap­proaches to servicing exceptional children and 20 percent will be used for projects with exemplary approaches to serving preschool children.

For application forms and guidelines, call Cheryl Kozell at 7 -3090.

FOCUS EMU

Reorganization announced. to provide focus on athletics

President John W. Porter an­nounced a reorganization of the University Relations Division on Friday, Aug. 3, which will strengthen the commitment to achieving goals in the Depart­ment of Intercollegiate Athletics.

"I have asked John C. Foun­tain, vice president for university relations, to take sole respon­sibility for the four critical tasks we have ahead of us in inter­collegiate athletics. To ensure his success in this endeavor, I am temporarily assigning the other offices in his division to other areas," Porter said.

The Alumni Relations and Development offices will report directly to the president and In­formation Services and Publlica­tions and WEMU-FM will report to Dr. Ronald W. Col­lins, provost and vice president for academic affairs. Sports In­formation, currently a part of Information Services, will report directly to Fountain. This reorganization will be in effect through March 1 985.

Vice President Fountain will be responsible for coordinating the efforts of the Athletic Fund Raising Committee, promoting the sale of season tickets for football and basketball, directing pre-game half-time attractions and raising the necessary private support to maintain EMU's broad intercollegiate athletic program of 22 men's and women's sports.

"We are all in agreement that the task facing the University in 1984-85 in intercollegiate athletics requires full-time atten­tion and University - wide sup­port ," said President Porter. "We are indeed encouraged that John Fountain, a 20-year

employee of the University, has concluded that if the the promo­tion, sales and attendance plan is to succeed, someone has to grab hold of the reins.

"The crisis that has emerged over the past several months will not abate," Porter said, "and there will be a continuing need to make certain there is no recurrence of the crisis. This is a primary concern of the University."

Football ticket campaign surpasses first target

President John W. Porter an­nounced Friday, Aug. 24 that the goal of 1 ,000 season football tickets sold to University employees and 1 ,000 season tickets to small businesses had been achieved and exceeded.

As of Aug. 24, 1 ,068 season ticket equivalents had been sold to employees. President Porter paid special recognition to UAW Local 1975, representing clerical/secretarial employees at the University, which purchased I 00 season tickets, and to the EMU Chapter of the American Association of University Pro­fessors, representing the faculty, which bought 300 tickets for the Oct. 6 game against Central Michigan.

The AAUP will celebrate its 10th anniversary as a bargaining unit that day with a special pro­gram prior to the game. Dinner, live entertainment and awards to faculty members who have served the AAUP will take place in a special AAUP tent adjacent to the stadium.
