Administrators
hope change will
retire stereotype
By Mindy L. Leiter
Staff Reporter
What’s in a name?
Plenty, when a college wants to
change its image, the dean of the
College of Home Economics said.
Sick of the college’s “cooking
and sewing” stereotype, Karen Craig
said the home economics college
wanted to invest in a new name —
“College of Human Resources and
Family Sciences” — as a way to
promote its programs and attract
new students.
“It would help change the old
stereotype,” she said. “Many of
our major courses arc heavily tech
nical and deal with human rela
tions.”
Craig said the new name would
reficctthc diversity of the college’s
curriculum.
“I am hopeful that it would make
the college seem more attractive,”
she said.
Other students do not take the
college seriously and think there is
“no academic rigor” in programs
the college offers, Craig said.
Other home cconom ics col leges
have changed their names to re
flect the diversity of their curricu
lums, she said.
“A lot of colleges arc changing
to human resources,” she said.
“I hope the name will reflect the
role that our programs play in con
temporary society.”
The name change must be ap
proved by the Academic Planning
Committee; the NU Board of Re
gents; Stan Liberty, vice chancel
lor for academic affairs; and Irv
Omtvcdt, vice chancellor for the
Institute of Agriculture and Natu
ral Resources.
Craig said the college was hold
ing its publicity brochures unpl the
name change was approved.
Students have responded posi
tively to the proposed name, she
said.
“Students really think the name
change is to their advantage,” she
said.
Craig said there had been no re
sponse “one way or the other from
faculty,” but said neither vice chan
cellor had disapproved of the name
change.
She estimated the college’s name
would change in the fall semester,
but said she was hoping for July 1.

in Michigan
ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — More
than 200 University of Michigan stu
dents celebrated the last day of classes
by jogg‘ng « mile Thursday.
In the nude.
Most of the students running in the
seventh-annual nude mile shortly after
midnight were campus athletes. One
man made the course on crutches.
“This is a good study break,” said
23-year-old law student Karen Lib
ertiny, who watched the naked jaunt.
“I have a choice of looking at these
men or corporate tax.”
Runners wore lacrosse helmets,
swimming caps, cowboy hats, viking
horns and ski masks. Members of the
Michigan crew, who claim credit for
starting the mile in 1986, carried their
oars.
“I’ve seen it before, in pictures,”
said student Stephanie Simon, a spec
tator. “Fourg uys I ’ vc dated have done
it.”
The runners streaked single file
before gathering on the steps of the
Art Museum, posing for a photo and
singing “The Victors,” Michigan’s
fight song, before covering up.
Classes ended Wednesday and final
exams run through next week.
