Bargaining shifts to grievance talks
\t
Bargaining talks shifted from institutional issues to grievance
policies Monday, with both topics scheduled to be discussed at
Friday's session, spokesmen from both sides said Monday.
Monday's three-hour session began with three interrelated institutional issues being negotiated, said FA spokesman Al Lewis,
but hit a stumbling block when the Administration team needed
clarification on a particular aspect. The issue was stalled until
Friday, Administration spokesman R. William Dunham added.
Lewis, chairman of the Speech and Dramatic Arts Department,
said the interrelated issues are two items from the 1977 agreement
along with one new topic.
Concerning grievance policies, Lewis said the issue is "complex"
and "will take some time" in negotiations. He said the teams are
working with the groupings used in the 1977 contract, including
grievance pocedures and arbitration.
"It's the basic process by which the Administration and FA ad
minister the contract," he said. He added the process must be
agreeable to both sides.
Dunham, associate vice provost for faculty contractual relations,
said the quality of the grievance section of the contract affects the
faculty/Administration relationship.
The faculty contract expires June 30,,Bargaining talks are in their
fourth week.
Friday's session begins at 2 p.m. in Warriner 304 and is closed.
University, city lacks
Blacks' entertainment
(Editor's note: In a continuing
series about blacks at CMU,
LIFE Staff Writers Tom Henry
and John Cutkbertson today
focus on entertainment)
The complaint that there's a
lack of entertainment in the
CMU community which appeals
to blacks probably is older than
most of the cobwebs in Warriner
Hall.
"There's just not that much to
do here—it's a sheltered town,"
one black recently said% "I go to
J.R. Winfred's every now and
then, but besides that, I don't
like most other places."
The complaints have not been
confined to taverns.

campus films, dance and theatre

criticized —not necessarily for
total neglect of black interest,
but for inconsistency.
University.    Events    Coordinator James Lombard agrees
there's an overall gap in black
entertainment.
"It's unfortunate, but that
happens in a rural community
like ours," Lombard said.

Food manager leaves job
with pleasant memories
by TERRY FOSTER
LIFE Staff Writer
It's another busy lunch hour
in the University Center's
Reservation. Hundreds of
mumbled conservations travel
throughout the large room. One
man  who  has  witnessed   this

scene for about five years as
assistant manager of University
Food Services, will miss this
daily commotion.
Dan Nolan is leaving his job
and going to Littleton, Colorado
at the end of the semester to
attend a food service training
center at Arapahoe Community
College. He will be training for a
open position in the area*
Nolan will be attending a food
services training center and will
be trained for a position in food
services opening in the area.
Colorado seems so much more
pleasing than Mount Pleasant
for many people, but Nolan, who
has lived in this area all his life,
said the people and the city will
be missed.
"It will be hard to leave. This
(the Reservation) was my
operationto develop as I saw fit.
It's an excellent operation and
staff who work here," Nolan
said.
The most important part of
his job here was knowledge
gained in the position, he said.
"I have learned you can't
please everyone all the time. I
have learned to enjoy this
business, and the duties and
people you encounter. People
enjoy and appreciate good
quality food service," he said.
Nolan became interested in
the food, services business as a

A crowd of 3,900 rock and rolled with Nazareth and its back-up Donnie Iris Monday night
at Rose Arena. Don McCafferty (above), the lead singer of Nazareth, thrilled the fans with
his crazy antics and his scream style of singing that has been a trademark during the bands
11 year career.
Nazareth excites crowd
with rock V roll show
by MICHAEL E. SMITH
LIFE Staff Writer
When someone mentions
the rock 'n' roll group
Nazareth, thoughts regress
deep into the past to the mid-
1970s.
•The Scottish rockers still
are around though, as they
pounded out a concert in front
of a crowd of 3,900 Monday
night at Rose Arena.
After a warm-up by the
newly formed Donnie Iris
group, Nazareth rocked
through a 15-song set that had
the crowd on its feet most of
the night.
Livonia senior Ken Knapp,
concert coordinator for
Program Board, which co-
sponsored the concert with
WMHW-FM 91, said the show
was a success.
"Yes, it was a success.' I
think   it   went   over   well,"
Knapp said after the concert.
"It looks like the crowd enjoyed themselves."
Nazareth's sometimes
rocky 11-year career has been
filled with quite a few daring
adventures.
While most bahds of the
early 1970s have either
changed with the times or
gone by the wayside,
Nazareth has remained the'
same through the years.
