Enrollment forces staff, section increases
Deans plan beefing up
to offset class crunch
BY ROGER MORGENSTERN
LIFE Marvagmg FO lor
Forseeing high enrollment figures for the winter
semester, two University deans say they are
planning to beef up their instructional staffs, after
feeling the crunch this term.
This semester. 16,743 students — 837 students
more than projected — enrolled at CMU for the fall
semester. The trend is expected to continue next
semester. University officials said.
The deans of the college of Arts and Sciences and
the school of Education. Health and Human
Services say they will need added sections to
accomodate enrollment increases within their
departments.
Myron Henry, dean of the college of Arts and
Sciences, said the college has added 15 sections thus
far in various departments for the winter semester.
Henry' said winter enrollment is expected to be 3
percent or 4 percent higher than last year.
Although these sectioas will appear for early
registration in October, Arts and Sciences probably
will have to add about six sections in various
departments to accomodate students between early
registration and the start of the semester, he added.
The college added six sections prior to the
beginning of the fall semester, Henry- said.
"It wasn't enough, but it helped relieve the fall
pressure," he said.
To handle the extra winter semester sections.
Henry said, allocations for four full-time equivalent
positions <FTE) will be added by the Provost's Office.
Each allocation can be used to hire a full-time
faculty member or to hire several part-time faculty,
Henry said.
The Provost's Office has earmarked two allocations for Arts and Sciences, while two other FTEs
from past semesters will be used to hire new
instructors. Henry said.
"Each year there's some FTE (from the Provost's
Office) that is not totally used,* he said.
The departments hire their own instructors,
Henry said. The departments adding more sections
for the winter semester are art, foreign languages.

The athletic department is trying to qua.->h. a profane version of a
Miller Lite commercial chanted during football games.
Walt Schneider, associate director of athletics, said Athletic
Director David Keilitz met with the InterFraternity Council and some
of the individual fraternities in an attempt to end the cheer before
Saturday's football game
However, the cheer still was chanted Saturday. Keilitz could not In-
reached for comment.
Schneider said Keilitz also met with cheerleaders and encouraged
them to divert the crowd's attention when the chant began The ushers
also were told to discourage the cheer, he said
The profane version of the "tastes great, less filling" commercial has
mathematics, political science, speech and dramatic
arts, physics and religion.
Enrollment this year in the college was 4.8
percent more than projected figures, Henry said.
"It leaves us somewhat short of our
resources. . .we're doing as well as can be expected,"
Henry said.
Michael Kent, acting dean for the school of
Education, Health and Human Services, said 1986
fall enrollment was 5 percent higher than projected
in the school.

sections will be added throughout the school to
accomodate the expected student increase for the
next term.

InterFraternity Rush Chairman Sam Hudson may have put it best when he said that a 'heart
attack' could have hit him any minute at Friday's Greek 'jump' in Finch Fieldhouse. The
atmosphere was full of hysteria and the noise level out did any thundering heard on the CMU
campus in the last month. Hudson. Marysville senior, said the fraternity rush was a successful one,
while Panhellenic Rush Director Darcie Goulette, Farmington Hills senior, said the sorority rush,
despite a one-week delay caused by the flood, also was a success. Both fraternity and sorority rush
came to end Friday as the final pledges received their bids and took a dive.

to see," David said about the party

Stuck in the mud
Residence-hall room grappling match plans muddied

residence hall room but now he

Housing officials
I'izzo. Mount Clemens junior
and terrace Tate resident, said he
thought a mud wrestling contest
would be a chance for the floor to
get invoked in something different and a little more exciting
than usual floor activities.
"When the halls were buried in the dirt from the
rain, they made us clean up, but when you want to
put a little mud to use, they won't let you."
—Frank Pizzo,
Mount Clemens junior
His plan, he said, was to have
(he fight in bis suite's main room.
With profits from ticket sales,
P1//0 .said he planned to purchase
two 1(1 by 10 feet canvases to be
placed on the floor in order to
contain the dirt. A kiddie pool
would have l>een placed in the
room when- two, women in bikinis
were to fight, he said.
When Pizzo approached his
resident assistant with the idea, it
was received as a good, refreshing
floor function he said. However,
Tate Hall Director Jacqueline
Jones Harvey did not agree, he
said.
"She   said   we   would   not   be
presenting a safe activity and that
halls are supposed to be kept as
dirt free as possible. We were
going to clean everything up,"
Pizzo said.
Pizzo said he will not be
appealing the issue to the University, but said he still does not
think the decision was fair.
"They let us have a bathroom
stuffing contest and 69 people
were stuffed into the bathroom,
which was definitely overcapacity," Pizzo said.
