              ut-Of-Staters May Suffer From Budget Cut
The bill making appropriations to higher
education which finally cleared both the
House and Senate allotted Central much
less than administrators requested and may-
force a raise in the tuition of out-of-state
students.
The original request for general funds
of $10,085,531 was pared to $7,577,861 and
legislators recommended that the CMU out-
of-state yearly tuition of $600 be raised to
$751.
The appropriation for last year totaled
$7,092,618.
In addition to advising universities and
colleges to raise out-of-state student's tuition
to 75 per cent-of the actual cost of educating
them ($751 in CMU's case), the legislature
has made a provision which limits enrollment of non-Michigan students to 20 per cent
of the student body. For every student enrolled in violation of this provision, $600
will be deducted from the allotment.
Since Central's out-of-state students make
up only a little more than 2 per cent of the
campus population, there has been some
speculation that fees will have to be raised
for resident students also. The Board of Trustees will meet to discuss this and other al
ternatives on July 24.
The capital outlay budget allows the following amounts for construction and land
acquisition projects.
1. $250,000 for the Pear.ce Hall construction
2. $1 million to continue library construction
3. $200,000 to continue construction on
the speech and dramatic arts building
4. $45,500 for land acquisition costs
5. $300,000 to complete plans and start
underground distribution system (utilities)

48 Married Units
Prepared For Fall
The first 48 units of the new married student housing
on the northwest section of campus will be ready for use
in the fall of 1967, according to Lee Polley, director of housing.
U-SenateToHold
Summer Meeting
These units are part of a
96-unit development which
wil replace Preston Apartments as married students
housing. The change of Preston
to single student housing has
forced the re-location of the
married families to Washington Court and the new apartments.
As single housing, Preston
can accommodate more than
300 students. According to
Polley, this will take care of
about 60 per cent of the new
students. The other 40 per cent
will be assigned to the 17
dormitories.
In the coming year, the number of students will total almost 10,400. Poliey said that
of this total, 6,300 will live in
on-campus dormitories.
Polley also revealed that the
final plans are now being completed for the new dormitories
to be built on the southwest
section of campus. It is planned
that these dormitories will be
ready for occupancy in the fall
of 1968.
"The rate at which the University is expanding the enrollment, the number of dormitories required to house the
students must be built in ever
increasing numbers just to
keep up with the demand."
Bookmen Pack Up
The University Senate will
hold its only meeting of the
summer at 3 p.m. on July 24
in Anspach 155.
Agenda items include the
election of two faculty members to a committee on Student Participation in Recommending University Policy
and a request from the Senate
Committee on Admissions,
Standards, Honors and Degrees
for a change of policy on
changing grades.
The Senate is also scheduled
to approve the list of August
graduates and receive a report
from its Curriculum Committee regarding a proposed general education program.
Curtis Nash, newly appointed
dean of the School of Education, is completing his one-
year term as chairman of the
University Senate. Election of
new Senate officers is scheduled for the fall.
