Keith Groty, assistant vice president for personnel and employee relations, said the ~ction was taken to facilitate a speedy resolution of the election. In the November balloting, the American Federation of State, County and 'Municipal Employees (AFSCME) got 634 votes to 617 for the MSU Employees Association (MSUEA). The University, however, challenged 179 ballots, most of them on the basis that · the employee voting was a "supervisor" according to definitions agreed upon previously by the University and MSUEA, the petitioning unit. Three of those ballots were concurrently challenged by AFSCME. At a subsequent informal hearing, the University agreed to remove its challenges to 84 votes after rechecking the status of those employees. When these votes were counted, MSUEA moved ahead of AFSCME 671 to 663. The University asked both parties to concur in its challenge of the remaining 95 ballots but both refused.

"However, since the agents chose not to challenge these votes, or to join with the University in declaring them ineligible, the challenges are now removed so that MERC may certify an agent without the necessity' of formal hearings," he said. Groty said such a formal hearing could be a costly undertaking lasting as long as six months. "We felt we were in a position to know more about what these employees (the challenged ballots) did on their jobs than either of the contending unions," Groty said. "But neither party would agree with our challenges, so we decided to withdraw them and let the chips fall where they may." He pointed out that by removing these challenges the University does not agree that individual employees in question would necessarily be represented by the union eventually certified to be the winner. Negotiations on that point are apart from the election itself.

The recent annual national enrollment survey by the University of Cincinnati, for example, places MSU total enrollment. But 15th in that survey includes state college and university systems (the 18 - campus State University of New York system ranks No. 1 with some 361,000 students) and those systems occupy nine of the first 15 places. But a further breakdown - to single - campus enrollment only - puts MSU in fourth place, behind the University of Minnesota (Twin Cities), Ohio State University (Columbus) and the University of Texas (Austin). Among single campuses, Big Ten universities hold six of the top 10 places nationally. The national survey by the University of Cincinnati's Dr. Garland Parker shows that colleges and universities managed to show a slight enrollment gain this year, although the rate of increase is leveling off. "To be sure," Parker reports, "many institutions, both public and private, experienced serious, sometimes losses, but devastating, enrollment overall most of the four - year institutions held their own or showed a slight gain." Parker estimates that this year's grand total college enrollment may reach 9.2 million students. Fall enrollment on MSU's East Lansing campus reached 41,378, a small decline (seven-tenths of 1 percent) from last year. Freshman enrollment at MSU actually increased (by 1 percent) over 1971, desrite a national decline in the freshman , total. The m •• nber of men at MSU dropped by 2 percent, but the women;s total grew by 1.1 percent. Men continue to outnumber women, but only 23,373 to 18,005 this fall. At the graduate level, the number of women increased by 5.7 percent. Among the Uriiversity's 15 degree - granting colleges, there was evidence of both enrollment growth and decline, and in many cases it reflects how students view the national job pictures.

BY PHILLIP MILLER An article by Paul Doty and Dorothy Zinberg of Harvard University, in a winter issue of the American Scientist publication of the science honorary Sigma Xi, confirms it. In a ranking of public and private institutions, based upon National Science Foundation (NSF) fellowship awards, MSU ties for first with the University of Iowa. Both institutions averaged 2.1 fellowships per 100 students during 1969 to 1971. This is a quality rating. In terms of quantity, MSU is second only to the University of Wisconsin which graduates about 70 more science students per year than does MSU. In sheer numbers of NSF awards, MSU is fifth among all of the nation's the universities and colleges three-year period. for The big five includes the California Institute of Tecimology, Massachusetts Institu te of Tecimology, Harvard University and Cornell University for the years 1969 through 1971. "The number of institutions producing a disproportionate share of leading science graduates is very small," said Doty and Zinberg. ,Qnother campuses in foreign LANGUAGE DEMAND UP.

Peters, a business professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, interviewed 84 recycling housholds and a equal number of non-recyclers in Madison's west side during the late 1971 and early 1972. Among other things he found that 73 per cent of the household heads who voluntarily recycled cans and bottles had four or more years of college. Only 34 per cent of the non-recyclers had similar educat ion. Fifty-nine per cent of the wives in recycling families had college degrees as . compared with only 22 per cent in non-user families. More college-educated wives also felt that solid waste disposal was a considerable problem. Of the families that didn't recycle, half felt that preparing cans and bottles and then taking them to a r ecycling cen ter was too much they lacked transportation, had not heard about the program , or were not interested in recycling. trouble.

"What is gratifying to us is the fact that MSU is one of the top in the ranks of private as well as public schools," said James W. Butcher, Acting Dean of MSU's College of Natural Science. "This is somewhat remarkable since MSU (and other public institutions) admits not only top high school students -- as do private institutions -- but also those students who range down to average in their classes." Understandably, the article raised enthusiasm among MSU faculty: "A number of our faculty have called me about this article," says Butcher. "While they are proud of this college's record, many believe that our merit scholar recruitment program and the Honors College program should share credit for the quality of our product."

An appointment can be made by calling 355-5122.1 His early career consisted of chicken farming and chain grocery managing. At college he switched from engineering to law, from Democrat to Republican. He became a Wisconsin Circuit Court Judge. A rear echelon Marine in World War II, he made the United States Senate in 1946 . . . . I'm describing Joseph R. McCarthy. Joe was an ambitious young Senator and he wanted to get places. He succeeded in turning Washington upside down. McCarthy started his climb to power conducting a one man expose of Communists in this country .... , "M cCarthyism is Americanism with its sleeves rolled up," he boasted. He called General George C. Marshall "an instrument of the Soviet conspiracy," Secretary of State Dean Acheson "the Red Dean," Owen Lattimore, the far eastern expert, "the top Russian espionage agent in the United States." United Nations Ambassador Jessup, according to Senator McCarthy, was "preaching the Communist Party Line" . . . Does this sound incredible; ... , Listen! McCARTHY: ". . . Now, the other night, Truman defined what he called 'McCarthyism'. The definition was identical, word for word, comma for comma, with the definition adopted by the Communist Daily worker, which originated the word 'McCarthyism' Now Joe salutes the well known correspondent, Edward R. Murrow: "Mr. Edward R. Murrow, as far back as twenty years ago, was engaged in propaganda for communist causes ...

At the I n v est i gat ion Sen a -t e Sub-Committee Hearings, chaired by Senator Karl Mundt , McCarthy said: ". . . I will not, under any circumstances, reveal the source of any information which I get as chairman of the committee. One of the reasons why I have been successful, I believe to some extent, in exposing communism is because the people who give me information from within the government know that their confidence will not be violated and I want to notify the people who give me information that there is no wayan earth that any committee, any force, can get me to violate the confidence of those people ...

Hungiville finds Pound letters The discovery of several 30-year-old letters by an MSU professor has linked one of this century's key literary figures with Olivet ColIege. Maurice Hungiville, assistant professor of American Thought and Language recently uncovered eight letters by the late Ezra Pound written to individuals at Olivet College. He made the discovery while conducting research at Olivet for a forthcoming book, "Writers in Residence," about poets and novelists who taught on college campuses. In an article in the November issue of American Literature, Hungiville explains that in 1937 author Ford Madox Ford, a writer-in-residence at Olivet from 1937-1939, tried to recruit Ezra Pound as a colleague. Ford, according to Hungiville's research, had found at Olivet "the financial security which had so long eluded him in Paris and London." He wrote to Pound in 1938 inviting him "to stroll for eight months of a year -- or several years - about the philosopher's groves of Olivet." Pound never accepted the Olivet position, but "his sense of himself as an educator and his interest in Olivet" were revealed in two of the eight letters which Hungiville found. One was written to Joseph Brewer, Olivet president at that time, and the other was written to some Olivet students for a campus publication. In them, Pound said the U.S. should feed 50 or 100 of our better authors" and condemned universities which do not "sharpen the student's perception of the state, nation and social order" as it exists when the student is in college. He closed his letter to the students by telling them: "The real educator is the man who arouses your curiosity." While Ford was at Olivet, the college, under the leadership of President Brewer, was a center for the arts with musicians, artists and authors visiting regularly. Included among the literary visitors were Carl Sandburg, Katherine Anne Porter and Sherwood Anderson. Although Pound was a native of Idaho, he spent most of his life in England or Europe. He is considered a controversial figure because of his SUllllOIt of Hitlet and .. Mussolini. However, CJitics agree that he was among a half dozen writers - including Yeats, James Joyce and.T.S. Eliot -- who turned the course of English and American writing from the Victorian to the modern. He .died Nov. 1 at the age of 87. For his book, Hungivi\le has also researched Faulkner's tenure at the University of Virginia, Randall Jarrell at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, Robert Frost at the University of Michigan and Delmore Schwartz at the University of Syracuse. HungivilIe, who recently presented the eight Pound letters to Olivet College, feels they are quite valuable since some are hand written. Eight Hemmingway letters sold for $16,000, he noted. Yale University has the major collection of Pound letters. HungiviIle still wishes to talk with Olivet alumni who studied under Ford and the other writers who visited the campus. Crafts collection donated to museum ROTC recognizes King What has been described by the staff as "one of the most outstanding collections of arts and crafts from other cultures" has been donated to the MSU Museum. The collection of Indonesian, Chinese, Ethiopian, and West African pieces was given to the museum by Cernyw Kline of Mason in the memory of his wife, Morna. The collection had been carefully assembled over a period of 19 years by th e Klines, who traveled through 80 countries. They lived in Indonesia from 1959 to 1962 while Kline taught agricultural engineering, and in Ethiopia from 1967 to 1969 while he taught and she worked for the Institute of Ethiopian Studies. Close contact with native peoples combined with study of the culture and appreciation of the arts allowed the Klines to acquire many outstanding works of art and handicraft. Upon their return to the United States, Mrs. Kline enrolled at MSU and received a bachelor of arts degree in interior design, graduating with the highest scholastic standing of any student to that time in the College of Home Economics. She died unexpectedly in May 1972. The 300-piece collection includes batiks, carvings and metalwork from Indonesia; masks, fetish figures and gold weights from West Africa; Coptic silver crosses and religious art from Ethiopia; and ivory and jade carvings, ceramics and bronzes from China. Diaramas depict colonial artisans "Artisans Old World and New," a new exhibit at the MSU Museum, shows colonial craftsmen at work, but it is also an excellent example of the kind of work modern artisans can do. A silversmith. a carver, a printer, and a cobbler are some of the artisans featured in the display. The figures , their tiny tools and workshops all give the observer a realist ic picture of historical craftsmen. Assistant Provost Herman L.

"There will also be a strong demand for those with undergraduate degrees in technical fields and masters degrees in busirIess administration," he added. "At the opposite end of the employm~nt scale are low - demand areas like education, social science, and liberal arts disciplines. "Graduates irI these areas will have a difficult time firIding employment because the supply far exceeds the demand." Salaries Starting salaries for this year's graduates will be about two percent higher than last year's grads acCording to Shingelton. "In the past," he said, "sa laries have increased about five percent per year, but they are leveling off now." This leveling off is partially ~_ue to employers': efforts to eliminate the "c.omoression problem," which resultedl from starting salaries for new college graduates increasing approximately the same amount as the salaries of experienced employees. "Consequently," he explained, "experienced employees, who are more valuable to the employer, were not being adequately rewarded for their longevity.

They are focusing on filling a specific need rather than establishing quotas." Opportunities for Women "There has been a marked increase irI the demand for women in bl!siness and industry, but women have created some obstacles for themselves in this regard." "Traditionally," said the MSU placement director, "women have not trained for the work that is in demand. Although this trend is slowly changing, the present demand for women in business and industry is not being met." Trends "Employers are requesting more co-op programs with colleges and universities because these programs make the student far more marketable upon grad uation," said ShirIgelton. "They also give the student a good opportunity to apply theoretical knowledge to practical situations."

If so, was the job related to his major? to know if "Work experience gained in college makes the transition from college to the world of work easier for the graduate," said Shingelton.

Career Planning "An increased awareness of career orientation," he points out, "is necessary on the college level if students are to compete successfully in the job market. "This means faculty, counselors, and advisors must keep that ultimately the student must compete in the job ,market and he must be I?r~pared to do so." in mind College graduates, he said, are begirIning to realize that: *A college degree is not the ticket to job security that it used to be. *Not everyone has to go to college to be a success and lead a rewarding life. *The receive - fields - of work. training college graduates especially in the liberal arts is often inadequate in the world "Consequently, there is a great need for more realistic, career oriented counselirIg on the college and high school levels," said Shingleton.

New office head seeks to unclutter career paths With a B.A. in psychology and an M.A. in measurement evaluation and research design from MSU, Mrs. Smith was looking for a challenge. Her new 'posi tion has provided just that. "There's so much happening with personnel, staff benefits and workmen's compensation. This office will really do something that's been needed for a long time," she continued. "A new point-count system will fill in information about each job more classification. On one side of campus a person classified an AP-3 might be doing a particular job function. On the other side of campus someone classified an AP-5 might be doing the same job. These should be uniform. "Until you have a centralized bureau and a centralized rating system, it is hard to eliminate duplication. Every person gives flavor to his job and thinks he's unique. But when you look closely at what his function is, adding or enumerating different parts of the job, others are similar," she said. Mrs. Smith explained that after the AP study is completed, the office will look at all groups and individuals. They will go out and audit new positions and help to re-structure old ones. "It's very frustrating for an employee not to be able to see a career path," Joan Smith, assistant director of compensation and evaluation services, said irI a recent interview. "Job status should be well defined the steps up clearly outlined. and BY JANJCE HAYES Employees should be made aware of other job possibilities. "The broader knowledge you get of the University, the more you realize what it has to offer. The A-P study, to be completed in January, should help to define those career paths," she continued. Mrs. Smith experienced quite a jolt in her own personal career path. She was hired as a compensation analyst on August 7th. For three weeks she worked with the newly-created division of compensation and evaluation services interviewing employees for the A-P study. Then, the position of assistant director of compensation and evaluation services opened unexpectedly and she was chosen to fill it. "I had expected to work hard, do my best, have my potential recognized and then be promoted. It was kind of frightening for it to all happen in three short weeks. It would have been a big step for anybody on such a newly created staff to move up," she said. A former teacher and · psychiatric technician, Mrs. Smith first worked at the University as a psychometrist in the Counseling Center. She was in charge of running the counseling center which included working with Veterans and Summer Orientation Testing programs. testing office the in JOAN SMITH Students are challenged in wilderness survival Page S, Jan. 4, 1973 Sometimes women fare better than men!

MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY IS AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYE R Paul Risk, instructor of Park and Recreation Resources, said the island adventure was the culmination of the department's wilderness survival course. Another such outing is being planned for this summer. The survival course, according to Risk, is to teach students, most in park and forest service curricula, how to survive in the wilderness equipped only with such basics as knives and axes. Students learn to construct shelters and set traps to catch small game. Additionally, they learn which roots and plants are poisonous and which are e,dible. The summer outings are arranged for approximately 20 selected students. Other students take a day-long field trip to Rose Lake to practice skills learned television the classroom in lectures and slides. through Risk, who has seven years experience with the National Park Service, directs the department's environmental student interpretation option majors. for The 1972 The wilderness survival class, which is part of the option, is designed to build into students natural pioneer traditions. summer outing was planned as a two-week experience. "But we had to radio the Coast Guard to pick us up after one week, because the group was starving." The group consisted of seven male and four female students who were existing on only 100 calories each per day, said Risk. "The problem was that the students didn't get organized immediately which is a very important part of survival," he said. Additionally, according to RiSK, it is necessary for there to be 16 traps per person to insure catching enough small game to survive. "The students only constructed 15 traps for the whole group." He added that the females fared better than the men. "I think this was because they didn't have anything to prove, whereas the guys had to project he-man images. This resulted in less stress on the girls," he said. Risk explained that the outing was a good experience for students because they learned from their mistakes. Risk has had other experiences in the past wilderness survival. During summer, he spent two weeks with the U.S: Air Force in the jungles of Panama in training, and survival according to Risk, he ioved it. tropical Culmination of the training was three days in the jungle with only a machete and first aid kit. "It was amazing terrain, mostly swamp areas, and it was constantly raining," he said. Risk said the jungle provided food of monkey, Yucca roots (similar to sticky potatoes) and taro plants. "I really enjoyed five pounds," he said. food and gained the According to Risk, he is planning to spend a week in February in Alaska in an Arctic survival course, also through the Air Force. The en vi romental interpretation option was established by the department to provide communication skills to students in park management. Risk explained that it is necessary that park officials influence a positive environmental attitude to those visiting national and private parks and nature centers. "This is so that people can have the ecological overview of an environment," he said. According to Risk, the appreciation of the envirorurent can only come when park and nature center officials can relay the message. The option provides students with a chance of preparing effective interpretation through slides and tapes, brochures, and other media. "The students are taught to modify the technical language of the land into the to assure more public non-technical awareness and sensitivity," he said. He explained understand appreciate and protect it better. the environment, that when people they BY SANDRA DALKA "The quality of the experience that people have in these areas depends upon the environmental interpretation they receive," Risk said. He also explained that people visit parks and nature centers not to be educated, "but recreation and for 're-creation' and to feel better." Risk added that students under the option are required to take a beginning acting class. "llis gives the students a to experience emotional chance in that will be effective overtones communicating in their field," he said. Currently, the department has 35 undergraduate and 1 0 master's degree students going through the program. Math and stat departments offer assistance The two University departments most concerned with the esoterica of numbers have devised programs to share their expertise with colleagues and students throughout the campus. The Department of Statistics and the Department of Probability and instituted have Mathematics consultation services available free to MSU students, faculty and staff. The Statistical Consultation Service is operated by the ,Department of Statistics and Probability in conjunction wi th Applications Programming, a self-supporting group of professional computer programmers and analysts on campus.

Page 6, Jan. 4, 1973 • • • How MSU ranks in enrollment (Concluded from page 1) freshmen and sophomore "pre - vet" majors. that John P. Newman, assistant dean of the veterinary mediCine, said growth is in part an indication of the continued favorable job picture for veterinarians. But he noted that the heavy influx of first and second - year undergraduates will make for especially stiff competition among those seeking to enter the professional vet medicine curriculum. The program now admits 155 students each year, 10 more than it had been admitting. Enrollment in human ecology jumped this fall by 14 percent, to 1,976 students. Acting Dean Robert R. Rice that recent organizational and said curricular changes have made the college more appealing to students, especially men. Rice said that increases have come in all departments of the college, a sign of renewed student concern for the family, and growing interest in the environment and in consumer affairs. The College of Agriculture and Natural Resources showed a gain of nearly 8 percent this year (to 3,256). Over the past two years, reported Assistant Dean David L. Arm~rong, enrollment in the college has jumped by more than 20 percent, due in part to student interest in the college's offerings relating to food systems, public affairs and the environment. But he added that the more traditional agricultural fields of horticulture and animal husbandry also have registered significant gains, with the latter doubling in enrollment since 1969. Most of the enrollment decreases at in areas closely MSU have come involved in teacher preparation. Enrollment in the College of Education itself declined by 9~5 percent this year, largely because of the college's self - imposed quotas in most education majors. The College of Arts and Letters showed a decrease, as did the College of Engineering. Kenneth Harding, coordinator of undergraduate student affairs in the College of Education, said that the quotas in his college represented a "concerted effort" to cut down enrollments that in years past had been "beyond our control." The quota system has proved largely beneficial, he said, because it has forced students to indulge in some ~erious career appraisals, and it has reduced the college's numbers to a more manageable size. Education remains one of MSU's largest colleges with some 5,500 students. Harding warned, however, against overreaction to reports of a national GEORGE BERTSCH, associate professor of physics, has written a new graduate level physics textbook titled "The Practitioner's Shell Model." Publisher of the book is North Holland of the Netherlands. JOHN H. FERRES, associate professor of American Thought and Language and Lyman Briggs College, is the editor of a volume of 18 critical articles on Arthur Miller's play "The Crucible." The volume, and an added scene by Miller, is the latest in the "Twen tieth Century Interpretation" series released by Prentice-Hall, Inc., Englewood Cliffs, N.J. teacher surplus. He said that it is unwise for students in high school to be advised against seeking teaching careers, because there are still needs in most fields. The engineering profession isn't experiencing the job shortage it once was, but many think it is. And this accounts in part for in engineering enrollment, said Assistant Dean George Van Dusen. But he also cited some other factors: many high schools are loosening their science and mathematics requirements so fewer students are taking these courses, and there is a general feeling that technology is a "bad guy" responsible for many of today's problems. the drop Richard Sullivan, dean of the College of Arts and Letters, said that much of the enrollment drop in his college (from 4,227 to 3,814) can be traced to fewer teacher candidates, who make up about half of the arts and letters students. Sullivan acknowledged a general national feeling that arts and letters is not a good vocational field. And while he said that some disciplines in the field need to find newer and better ways of presenting themselves, he emphasized that the liberal arts are really what a university should be all about. loses "There must be a significant part of a university that tries to liberally educate people regardless of their vocational aims," Sullivan said. "And if it fails to liberally educate, it its fundamental purpose as a university." An assistant dean of the College of Social Science, Baljit Singh, noted an enrollment decline in social science, related partially to a drop in the number of social science teacher candidates. But he added that some areas in social science have shown enrollment jumps - notably criminal justice and urban planning. Singh concurs in the belief that the nation is preoccupied with the vocational aspects of a university education. But it is not enough to teach students "how to build a highway or a bridge," Singh said. "They need to know how that highway or bridge is going to affect the lives of people." He added: "We need to recognize that the development of the critical abilities to deal with problems in a rational and scientific way is a lifelong process" - to be mastered in four, six or eight years at BY GENE RIETFORS college. not something ...... Open enrollment ends The University has completed the enrollment of almost 1,500 clerical-technical and labor employees who for the first time are eligible for participation in the TIAA-CREF Retirement Annuity Program. The eligiblity and participation rules for clerical-technical and hourly employees briefly state that 1) those who are between the ages of 35 and 55 with 3 years of service are required to participate, 2) those with 3 years of service may the TIAA-CREF participate in program at any age, and 3) clerical technical and hourly employees over 55 as of January 1, 1973, may optionally enter the program. The new TIAA-CREF program has been designed so that all employees will be guaranteed a larger. pension in addition to specialized features never before po ssible under the "old" plan. Employees do not "start over" but are assured that the years of service they have previously worked do count toward their retirement. TIAA-CREF deductions for almost 1,500 Univeristy employees will commence for those on the hourly payroll on January 19 and on January 31 for those on the salary payroll. Employees will notice that only their personal deduction (3%) will appear on their check stubs. The University's 6% contribution will be shown, along with the individual's, on a year-end statement sent to the employee by the University. TIAA-CREF will also send an annual statement. Individuals who have "tax-deferred" their contributions will notice their deductions showing on lines 2 and 3 of their che ck stub. Employees not tax-deferring will see their deductions in the "itemized deduction" section (Jines 4 and 5). the TIAA-CREF program should be directed the Staff Benefits Division, 344 Administration Bldg. Questions concerning to 3-4434. Broader opportunities sought for-worn:en -- Two MSU economists have called for broader academic opportunities for women economists and for more female economics students. Walter Adams, distinguished university professor of economics, and Collette Moser, assistant professor of agricultural economics, spoke at the Allied Social Science Associations BY JANET MARSH convention in Toronto last week. They both serve on the American Economic Association's lO-member Committee on the Status of Women in the Economics Profession. I n a preliminary report, the committee decided to focus on colleges and universities, where it believes there is more discrimination than in business and government. The report says that of 239 departments of economics with 3,125 full-time faculty members, 122 had no women on the economists in these departments, 6 per cent are women. The report says that 14 per cent of the federal economists are women. the faculty. Of all Adams accused some facuities of "embracing policies to make affirmative action plans fail and of precluding the abandonment of affirmative action and a return to the 'free market'." He also c r i tic i zed "bad faith" searches for women economists when colleges and universities pad their interview lists with women candidates, but fail to hire any, using the excuse that none was qualified. Hiring practices, he said, are informal and the majority of colleges rely on the information network of the "Old Boys Club." Adams turned the tables on excuses sometimes used to justify not hiring women and drew laughter as he listed comparable reasons for not hiring men. lonely, Single men, he said, are distracted, fit badly into the social life of the job and are discontent. On the other hand, he said, a married man may have a demanding, oppressive wife or an amiable wife who needs help with the household chores because they have too many children. Adams added that men shouldn't be hired because they are suffering from that middle - age disease, "male menopause. " Miss Moser focused on equal salaries, fringe benefits, facilities and resources for men and women of the same position and rank. "Wht!re inequities are found, remedies may range from giving the. woman assistance with 'upgrading' herself (through sabbatical leaves, etc.) . .. to back pay (ideally, with interest) where clearly a department has paid the women faculty less than what they paid comparable men." She also called for economics departments to investigate health and life insurance plans and pensions and to work to eliminate differential treatment of men and women. She cited the TIAA-CREF pension plan as a case in point. She also urged the association to encourage the development of "sex-blind" benefit system. urged that women be encouraged to do more research, to take research leaves of absence, and to apply for grants. "Due to societal socialization, many women feel that their best talents are in the teaching area, and they are not enthusiastic about research opportunities," she said. in all fields, The committee is the result of a set of resolutions adopted in 197 I by the American Economic Association to eliminate sex discrimination among economists including academe, business and government. to Miss Moser, the the status of women its guidelines and the According committee on hopes to finalize off icially presen t association next month. them to Other members of the committee are Chairman Carolyn S.
