PRESIDENT PEARSON ON AAUP REPORT - With the publication March 14 of the AAUP report on Faculty-Administration Relationships at the UM School of Medicine, President Pearson was asked by the press for his comment, little of which was quoted. FYI, this is what he said: MWe appreciate the interest of the AAUP and their sincere desire to be helpful. My personal feeling is that everyone concerned at the Medical School and in general University Administration has been guided consistently in his actions by what he sincerely believed was in the best interests of the University. We believe that we have an excellent medical school and that any of our problems, present or future, can be satisfactorily solved.” For the Newsletter, he added: "We are appreciative of the fact that the future of the Medical School -- as of all divisions of the University — depends in great measure on teamwork between the administration and the faculty, based on mutual understanding and confidence and common aspirations for the development of the entire University in whose continuing progress we share both faith and pride." DEADLINE CHANGED - Dr. Alfred C. Andrews, chairman for the UM AAUP committee directed to draft a plan for faculty participation in university government, reports that‘deadline for comment and suggestions on the first draft, now in the hands of faculty members, has been postponed from March 20 to March 30.
