UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI
OCRAI. GABLES. RORIDA 33124
April 7, 1970
Dear Students:
As our University has grown in size and scope, my colleagues and I have been eager to minimize the bureaucratic impersonality which is so often the curse of large and complex institutions.
To this end, we have given our consideration to implementing the Scandinavian concept of the Ombudsman on our campus.
The Ombudsman, as you may know him from your study of civil government, is an agent who aids citizens in their attempts to redress their grievances and solve their problems. He often serves as a sympathetic guide to an otherwise forbidding maze of governmental regulations and channels. Whatever his specific duties, however, the institution of the Ombudsman stands as a symbol of the recognition of the importance of the individual in a large and complex community.
I have just appointed on a trial basis a council of faculty members and administrators to serve as Ombudsmen for our students. It is my hope that the Ombudsmen I have named will be receptive and sensitive to the problems and grievances of students in all areas of University life, and will aid students in redressing their grievances and solving their problems by .pointing out to them the appropriate channels and steps which will help them.
By appointing this Council of Ombudsmen, all of whom are knowledgeable about the areas which they represent, I do not wish to duplicate or supplant the Ombudsman-like efforts of all of us who work within the academic community. I do believe, however, that by identifying individuals as Ombudsmen for particular areas of the University, a student who might otherwise be reluctant to confront an unfamiliar office or staff member will be encouraged.to seek guidance or advice.
Listed below are the names, areas of particular jurisdiction, and office locations of each of the Ombudsmen whom I have * appointed:

Slater’s Gets Contract
By ELIZABETH OSTROFF
Of Tlw Hurrlctnt Stiff
A decision to renew Slater’s contract through May 31, 1971, was made last week despite objections from some student leaders and charges from the Director of Housing and the Assistant Business Manager, which were critical of the food service.
Director of Housing James Grimm and Assistant Business Manager John Galbraith charged in a memorandum to the Business Manager that Slater's had “extremely poor sanitation,” “inconsistent billing procedure* on guest meal tickets,” and that “the service rendered and the presentation of food . . . has been below acceptable standards.”
“if service, managerial attitude and consideration of customer satisfaction are of prime concern, and the financial differences are not overwhelming, then it is our opinion that our Food Service contract should be offered to Saga,” the memorandum stated.
Saga, Inc, which, lost the contract to Slaters primary because their service
would have cost an additional $59,778.80 per year and the inclusion of a clause in their contract that provided for price escalation contigent on the national economy.
“If the contract is to be awarded primarily on the basis of financial consideration, then it is obvious It should be awarded to Slater,” the Grimm-Gaibraith memorandum stated.
"We didn't think it was fair to the students to make them assume the cost,” Galbraith said. He also said that while he had been in favor of the switch to Saga, he felt that Slater’s should be given a second chance.
“If they don't perform, than we will have their contract cancelled," he said, referring to a thirty-day cancellation clause in the Slater contract.
A major point considered in the renewal of the Slater contract is the fact that in the last 30 days the management segment In all three campus cafeteria has been changed and new per*onnel have been brought in.

Committee To Study Proposal
By LINDA KLEINDIENST
Hurrtcini Ntwt C 4 Iter
Interfraternity Council President Ron Stone will ap-p e a r before the Student Affairs Committee of the Board of Trustees today to present the proposed IFC visitation and alcoholic beverage policies.
“This is just a recommending committee to the Board," Vice President for Student Affairs Dr. William R. Butler said. "It is up to the committee whether or not they will bring any recommendations before the board at their April 14 meeting."
According to Stone, the meeting was originally scheduled for April 21. “We’re very pleased that the Board moved the hearing date up, two weeks,” he said.
Stone said he is pleased that he will have the chance to present both proposals to the committee.
Both proposals have been rewritten several times. “We’ve changed the prefaces, philosophies and the rationale of both the proposals,’’ Stone said.
The visitation policy now calls for open visitation in the living units of fraternity houses from noon until 2 a.m. seven days a week. It originally asked for 24 hour visitation.
“We cut the number of hours down, because we felt it would be impossible to have control over the houses for 24 hours,” Stone explained. “All we really want is an immediate implementation of some sort of visitation policy like that of the residence halls.”
As for the drinking propos al. Stone said, “IFC feels that we’re part of the university and that we should act with due regard to the policies of UM as well as civil law.”
“In a way we’re asking for a special rule because of the uniqueness of the fraternity situation,” he explained. “Our proposal would take away all legal responsibility from the university and put it on our shoulders.”
Stone said that he hopes for some kind of answer after the meeting, but refused to say what IFC would do if the Board did not act on the two proposals in the near future.
Dr. Butler said he feels optimistic about the proposals and today’s meeting since this is the first time that members of the Board have met with fraternity men.
Sammy Davis Cancels Show
The Sammy Davis, Jr Benefit scheduled for Saturday at Miami Marine Stadium was cancelled when Davis and his troupe were unable to get to Miami.
In a statement issued by United Black Students and their advisor, Chester Byrd, the air controllers’ strike in California was named as the cause for the cancellation of the concert.
The show has been rescheduled for Davis’ next available date which will be Monday night at Miami Marine Stadium, April 27. At that time all tickets will be honored.	.
