SENATE
PASSES ANOTHER MEASURE CRITICAL OF ADMINISTRATION
The University Senate reiterated
its displeasure with the administration Jan. 14, passing a sense-of-the-senate
resolution criticizing MTU's leadership and financial management.
After the administration announced
benefit cuts and temporary salary reductions to partially address a looming
deficit, the senate held a no-confidence referendum of its constituency
targeting President Curt Tompkins. Seventy-four percent of the respondents
said they did not have confidence in his leadership or management skills.
In addition, the senate asked the Board of Control to review the university's
financial system.
The latest senate resolution,
"A Senate Statement on MTU's Financial Status," introduced by
Senator Tony Rogers (Chemical Engineering), says the university's "self-inflicted
wounds" are greater than the state's cuts to MTU's budget. These
problems are caused by shortfalls in management skills and leadership,
according to the statement, which also calls for a "forensic"
review of the university's finances.
Rogers said the no-confidence
vote was prompted by these problems and was not a response to salary and
benefit cuts.
The senate undertook a lengthy
debate on whether to adopt the statement immediately as a sense-of-the-senate
resolution or vote on it later as a proposal. Generally, proposals are
presented in advance of a vote to allow senators time to consult their
constituents.
In the end, they decided to
do both: adopt the matter as a sense-of-the-senate resolution and vote
on it again as a proposal at their next meeting. The measure passed 26-5
on a secret ballot.
In other business, the senate
* approved minor amendments
to two proposals already in force, "Procedures for a Financial Crisis"
and "Procedures for Periods of Financial Stress." The proposals
provide a variety of benefits for employees who are laid off in such circumstances.
Senate President Robert Keen noted that these proposals are coming forward
as part of the senate's regular business and are not connected with MTU's
current financial difficulties.
* approved Proposal 13-04,
"Position Statement Regarding the Value of Professional Staff to
the University," which says that professional staff contribute to
the university's missions and that MTU requires "standard practices
of evaluation, training, transfer and promotion" to ensure opportunities
for staff career development.

THE EH-B-Cs
OF LINGUISTICS
STUDENT
RESEARCHES U.P. DIALECT
All her life, Hancock native
Laura Walikainen has been steeped in the dialect of the Upper Peninsula.
So, when she talked with her linguistics professor about starting a research
project, an obvious choice was the much beloved and much maligned word
"eh," along with its corollary, "hey."
"I looked up everything
I could on the 'eh' phenomenon, and it almost all dealt with the Canadian
'eh,'" says Walikainen, a junior majoring in social sciences. "There
were no studies of 'eh' on the U.S. side of the border, 'eh' in the U.P."
In the language of linguists,
"eh" and "hey" are discourse particles: small, seemingly
incidental words between sentences that nevertheless have important functions
in conversation. In the case of "eh" and "hey," they
are often used to solicit agreement or pass the conversational ball to
another speaker.
Under the direction of Victoria
Bergvall, an associate professor in the Department of Humanities, Walikainen
went out into the field to conduct basic research on the use of "eh"
and "hey." It's not as glamorous as you might think.
"I would stand around
in Wal-Mart for hours waiting for someone to say it," she said.
Armed with a notebook, she
lurked behind posts and paper towel displays, hoping that someone, anyone,
would utter "eh" or "hey."
"It's the hang-around
methodology," Bergvall chuckles.
What Walikainen found was surprising.
"Eh" may slowly be dying out, at least in this corner of the
U.P., and being supplanted by the incoming variant "hey."
She tracked the use of "eh"
and "hey" by age group. Those age 65 and older said "eh"
three times as often as they said "hey."
Among the middle-aged, the
split was about 50-50. Young people, however, were three times as likely
to say "hey" as "eh."
Apparently, "hey"
is cool and "eh" is for fuddy duddies. "It feels more socially
acceptable to say 'hey' instead of 'eh' in my age group," says Walikainen,
21. "Many times, people have made fun of me for saying 'eh'. It feels
better to say 'hey.'"
It also feels right. "One
thing that came to me during this study was how important this little
particle is," she says. "Once I purposely left off the 'hey'
when I was talking with my mom, and it felt so wrong."
"I think the most interesting
thing is that the locals don't necessarily say 'eh'; they also say 'hey,'"
Bergvall said. "When we set up the study, we wanted to find out what
was up with that."
So why is the dialect changing?
"Eh" may be losing
its predominance in local parlance in part because of unwarranted attention
by national media.
"One of Laura's sources
talked about how 'eh' might be less used because it's stigmatized by 'Doug
and Bob Mackenzie,' who appear as the mooses' voices in the new Disney
movie 'Brother Bear,'" Bergvall said. "The two moose endlessly
use the Canadian version of 'eh.' Even in the website for the movie, the
moose are saying 'Click here, eh!'"
No indigenous eh-sayer would
ever say that, but for proof that Hollywood can get it wrong, you can
visit
http://disney.go.com/disneypictures/brotherbear/
and place your cursor over "Enter Here."
"The two moose are reprising
characters from a comedy skit by Rick Moranis and actor Dave Thomas, who
in 1983 did a movie, 'Strange Brew,' and a series of SCTV comedy skits
about beer-swilling, eh-saying guys up north," Bergvall said. "I
asked my son what he thought of the moose in the movie. He thought they
weren't very smart.
"Our concern is that the
negative image of unintelligence is thus linked to eh-sayers in general
and is now made national by this movie."
In any case, Walikainen's data
clearly illustrate the generational shift in usage, Bergvall says. "It's
a small but nicely done study, and it's very appropriate for undergraduate
research," she said. "Laura is learning what research means.
You get one thing nailed down and then you have more questions and have
to go back to work."
Walikainen gave a presentation
on her study at the North American Undergraduate Linguistics Conference,
held at the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor in October.
That doesn't mean she can quit
hanging out at Wal-Mart. "I'm still researching the meanings of 'eh'
and 'hey,'" she says. "People who use it don't think about it.
I'm not done yet."

LODE TAKES
FIRST PLACE IN STATEWIDE CONTEST
The Michigan Tech Lode has
been selected for first place in the General Excellence category of the
Michigan Press Association's 2003 College Newspaper Contest.
Papers in this category were
evaluated for overall excellence in writing, designing and advertising.
"It's an excellent newspaper,"
said Lode advisor Associate Professor Craig Waddell (Humanities). "We
have a great staff, and they've worked hard to continuously improve the
paper. They're bright, committed and hard-working, and they respond well
to constructive criticism from a variety of sources."
"The Lode's success in
this and in other respects is attributable to Michigan Tech's outstanding
students, approximately 1 percent of whom work for the Lode. Tech students
tend to be bright and versatile. Even though we don't have a department
of journalism or even a major in journalism, our students have been able
to produce an excellent newspaper."
"This is the second year
in a row we've won," Waddell said.
The award will be presented
at the annual MPA Winter Convention in Grand Rapids on Saturday, Jan.
31.

TEACHING
AT TECH: NATIONAL SURVEY OF STUDENT ENGAGEMENT 2003
by William Kennedy, director,
Center for Teaching, Learning and Faculty Development
The latest palliative to be
embraced by a subset of higher education institutions is the National
Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE). NSSE designers purport to having
identified an array of educational practices that typifies a quality undergraduate
experience. They write, "Student engagement, the frequency with which
students participate in activities that represent effective educational
practices, is a meaningful proxy for collegiate quality."
The NSSE survey allows institutions
to compare their own students' descriptions of their experiences in and
out of class with the responses of other undergraduate students enrolled
at 437 NSSE participating colleges and universities. This year about 348,000
first-year and senior students participated in this survey, including
344 Michigan Tech first-year students and 365 seniors. The resulting report
allows us to compare the responses of some our students to those of students
in the entire database and to a subset of students from other doctoral
intensive institutions.
If you buy the basic premise,
the NSSE results would appear to contain some glimmer of good news and
some troubling indications, as well. For example, MTU first-year students
were significantly more likely to have worked with classmates outside
of class to complete an assignment compared to respondents from other
doctoral intensive institutions. Michigan Tech first-year students were
more likely to have been involved in a learning community or a cohort
scheduling program than students at comparable institutions. In general,
teamwork-related scores at MTU were good. More MTU seniors reported they
had participated in an undergraduate research program than others from
doctoral intensive schools. MTU student respondents said they focused
more on thinking critically, analyzing quantitative problems, using computing
and information technology, and solving real-world problems than respondents
from peer institutions.
On the downside, significantly
fewer MTU first-year students and seniors reported that their undergraduate
studies had contributed to improving their skills in writing and speaking
clearly and effectively. Specifically, fewer seniors reported having made
a classroom presentation than did students at other doctoral intensive
institutions.
Fewer MTU students said they
were acquiring a broad general education than their counterparts at other
doctoral intensive institutions. Fewer MTU seniors felt that their academic
and intellectual experiences had included diverse perspectives (race,
gender, culture etc.) in class discussions or writing assignments. Twenty-four
percent of our seniors said these issues never came up. Fewer MTU students
also reported having worked on a service learning or community-based project.
On global satisfaction items,
MTU fares quite well. Ninety percent of the MTU first-year students and
85 percent of seniors evaluated their educational experience as good or
excellent, compared to 85 percent of first-year students and 83 percent
of senior students surveyed at other doctoral intensive institutions.
Eighty-seven percent of the MTU first-year students and 81 percent of
MTU senior respondents said they would choose MTU again, if they had it
to do all over again, against 81 percent of first-years and 76 percent
of seniors at peer institutions.
A fair read of the data would
seem to suggest that we should keep doing the good things that we are
doing while putting significantly more emphasis on writing, speaking and
helping our students to understand and interact with people with divergent
points of view and life experiences.
FRED'S
BACK AT THE ROZSA CENTER
submitted by University Cultural
Enrichment
Imagine a big macho guy doing
a credible imitation of a cute poodle. Or a petite woman acting like a
bull mastiff. How about a group of twenty-somethings forgetting their
names or putting their shoes on the wrong feet? Such odd happenings and
others very like them do actually occur once a year on the stage of the
Rozsa Center. If you think this sort of thing just doesn't happen at Michigan
Tech, come to the Fred Winters show on Saturday, Jan. 17, at 7:30 p.m.
and experience the power of hypnosis. You'll also enjoy an evening of
great entertainment. Tickets are on sale at the Rozsa Center Box Office
(487-3200, Monday-Friday, 11:30 a.m.-5 p.m.) or online at http://tickets.mtu.edu.
There's no doubt that hypnotism
is fascinating, and watching a master like Fred Winters is a real experience.
There's never a lack of enthusiastic volunteers to go up on stage and
strut their stuff while under hypnosis, and they are often joined by others
who have become hypnotized in the audience. Fred keeps the show fresh
by introducing new segments each year and always watches his subjects
carefully, making sure they don't harm themselves in their enthusiasm
to follow his often hilarious instructions.
Don't worry, however, that
you'll automatically become hypnotized if you're in the audience--it only
works if you WANT it to. And it is quite amusing to watch the person sitting
beside you gradually succumb, while you are stone cold "sober,"
so to speak!
It's hard to remain skeptical
about what you see on stage when you ask volunteers to talk about their
experiences after the performance. Usually they are fully aware of their
actions. The amazing thing is that while they are actually behaving in
a way that would be totally out of character for them in a normal situation,
under hypnosis it feels perfectly OK, even in front of hundreds of people.
The visit of Fred Winters is
sponsored by the MTU Student Entertainment Board. Call 487-2844 for further
information.

CLUB INDIGO
SHOWS "THE MAN WITHOUT A PAST" AS PART OF HEIKKINPAIVA CELEBRATION
by Joe Kirkish
Mu Beta Psi music fraternity
begins the new semester by joining up with the annual winter solstice
celebration, Heikkinpaiva, by sponsoring a special Club Finndigo at the
Calumet Theatre.
The big public event, which
includes a Portage Lake dunk (usually by Phi Taus and other volunteers),
a parade and loads of winter sport activities--all in Hancock on Saturday
the 17th--actually will begin at the Calumet Theatre on Friday night,
the 16th, with a food and film event, Club Finndigo. The evening starts
with a seven-course meal of Finnish cuisine, from soup and salad to a
choice of entrees and, as dessert, a delicacy called "apple snow."
Aki Kaurismaki's droll, fascinating
movie "The Man Without a Past" was last year's Golden Palm winner
at the 55th international Cannes Film Festival. Kaurismaki says he was
heavily influenced by the American classic "It's a Wonderful Life."
His movie reveals what happens to a man who is beaten and left for dead,
but who returns to life as an amnesiac and lives among outcasts in an
odd collection of lost souls outside the environs of Helsinki and eventually
finds a new life, love and a strange twist of events.
The buffet will be offered
by chef Eric Karvonen of Eagle River's Fitzgerald Restaurant at 6 p.m.
The movie will follow at 7:15 p.m. The cost for both is $15; for the movie
alone, $3.50. Reservations for limited seating at the buffet can be made
by calling the Calumet Theatre at 337-2610.

FOURTH
THURSDAY IN HISTORY: HISTORY OF WINTER CARNIVAL
The history of Michigan Tech's
Winter Carnival will be the topic of a public presentation at 7 p.m.,
Thursday, Jan. 22, in the Douglass Houghton Hall lower level study hall.
The presentation is free and open to the public.
Jane Nordberg, freelance writer
and board member of the MTU Alumni Association, will explore the long
history of statue-building, queen competitions and sporting duels that
make up the university's annual Winter Carnival. The event got its start
in 1922 when the Michigan College of Mines Student Organization presented
a one-night show called the "Ice Carnival." The evening included
acts presented in circus style, with students in costume depicting various
animals. In 1924, an actual big top was assembled that featured animals
brought in from all over the world.
Although the number of exotic
animals has declined in recent years, Winter Carnival still maintains
a hectic circus atmosphere. From aggressive broom ball tournaments to
Division I hockey, from fraternity and sorority skits to winter fireworks,
the event has developed into one of the nation's premiere winter festivals.
The presentation will include photographs from nine decades of the university's
celebration of snow and winter.
This presentation is part of
the "Fourth Thursday in History" program jointly sponsored by
Keweenaw National Historical Park and the MTU Archives and Copper Country
Historical Collections. Additional support for this event is provided
by MTU Residential Services.
For further information, including
specific directions to this event, contact the Keweenaw National Historical
Park at 337-3168 or the MTU Archives at 487-2505.
