Suit filed against teachers’ union
Frey to stay on as president Continues duties for 2012-2013 academic year
By Brianna Owczarzak Staff Reporter Mike Nichols Managing Editor
By Orrin Shawl Staff Reporter
Laura Frey is returning to her role as the Faculty Association’s president. Library faculty member Krista Graham Laura Frey was originally president-elect but had to resign after taking a job at Georgia State University. In an email sent to FA members Monday and obtained by Central Michigan Life, Frey wrote “It was going to be my honor on June 30 to send you a communication to welcome Krista Graham into the role of FA President for the 2012-13 academic year. Instead, I regret to inform you that Krista has submitted her resignation, effective July 6.” Graham had served as the FA president-elect last year and has been a co-chair of the last two bargaining teams as part of her services on the last three bargaining teams. “What this immediately means for the FA is that I will continue the role of FA president as of July 1,” Frey wrote in the email. “This is because the FA Bylaws (Article IV, Section 2) provide that the FA presidentelect ‘Shall act in the absence or disability of the President.’” Frey was elected presidentelect in April for the 2012-13 academic year after Graham was expected to take over Frey’s role as president of the FA. The FA will hold an election for the new president-elect during the fall semester. Graham did not return calls seeking comment Tuesday. Tim Connors will fill the role of past president. Bylaws state when the office of the past president needs to be filled, the FA Board “may appoint any previous President of the Association to this position,” the email said. Frey was FA president when the union’s contract was not renewed last summer by Central Michigan University, resulting in one of the biggest conflicts in university history. Frey led the union on strike on the first day of fall semester classes before being ordered to return to classes by an Isabella County judge. The FA and CMU came to a tentative agreement on a three-year contract in December. Frey declined to comment when contacted.

Ride of a lifetime Tubing the Chippewa River a summer must for locals By Justin Hicks l Staff Reporter
Summertime in Mount Pleasant goes hand in hand with riding down the calming Chippewa River year after year. One of the city’s most visited attractions, the 91.8-mile river gives locals a relaxing getaway during the season’s hottest days. Alpena senior Geoff Kowalski has been a regular tuber for the past three summers. Aside from being the main source of water for Mount Pleasant, the Chippewa River takes on the responsibility of entertaining the city’s inhabitants during the sweltering days of summer. “Tubing is always a blast, and I have yet to see someone on the Chip River who wasn’t smiling and having a great time,” Kowalski said. “The woods and nature scenery make it much more fun than being in a pool.” Free-floating tubing is the act of being carried down a body of water by the current, usually on an inflatable tube. Groups of tubers will often pull out a “beer raft,” designed to hold a cooler during the float down the
river. Chipp-A-Waters and Island Park are two of Mount Pleasant’s five parks along the river commonly used as entrance and exit points for tubers. The trip’s scenery might also include the city’s three other parks, as well as Isabella County’s three parks. Williamston senior Jacob Maran is an avid tuber in his second summer in Mount Pleasant. “Tubing is a Mount Pleasant must,” Maran said. “My favorite tubing memory was being flashed by three girls during one trip this year. Never has it happened before, and I have gone more than I should.”
Redondo Beach, Calif. senior Allison DevillingMiller said her first tubing experience was memorable, though not in an expected fashion. “Where I’m from, we have the ocean, which you stand and splash around at most if you’re not a surfer,” she said. “So, especially in my hometown, there were no nice, quiet rivers that you could just float down.”

The Union of Teaching Faculty at Central Michigan University is facing state prosecution for allegedly taking out illegal agency fee payments. Nancy Rusch, professor of accounting, claims UTF did not follow proper requirements while taking out agency fee payments from her. “They are deducting union dues from my paycheck without any explanation of what the calculation was,” Rusch said. “I should have been able to get a list of the types of clauses that they were going to be charging me with under this agency so I would have some time to be able to review them and make objections.” Rusch filed her charge with the Michigan Employment Relations Commission against UTF. She is being represented by the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation. Rusch is a fixed-term faculty and falls under the category of public employees who are a part of UTF but not official members. “There are two types of union members: full members and service-fee payers,” said Matt Serra, executive director of faculty personnel services. “Each have different dues structures, and each have different opportunities and rights within the union.” Serra declined to comment on the case but referenced Article 5 of the latest contract agreement between CMU and UTF. The document says employees, union member or not, receive union benefits and must pay a service fee to the union. Employees can choose to not be a union member, because Michigan does not enforce the Right to Work Law. According to the document, “In cases where a deduction is made that duplicates a payment that an Employee already has made to the UNION, or where a deduction is not in conformity with the provisions of the UNION Constitution or Bylaws, refunds to the Employee will be made by the UNION.” According to UTF’s website, official union members are eligible to vote in elections, on referenda and to ratify collective agreements.

Romney sharply criticizes Obama Tuesday in swing through Michigan By John Irwin Fall Elections Coordinator
Kaitlin Thorne/Staff Photographer
Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney stopped in DeWitt Tuesday afternoon as part of a three-city tour across the state of Michigan. He spoke Tuesday morning in Frankenmuth and continued on to Holland later in the evening.
DEWITT — Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney Tuesday criticized President Barack Obama and detailed what he would if elected president. Romney, joined on stage by his wife Ann and Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette, said the upcoming election offers a distinct choice between two very different candidates. “I will take America in a very different direction (than Obama),” Romney said at Sweetie-licious Bakery Cafe, 108 N. Bridge Street. “I’m going to do almost the exact opposite of the president.” Romney spent much of his speech criticizing Obama for saying “the private sector is do-
ing fine” while answering a question from the White House Press Corps. Obama later took back the statement. “If there’s ever a president that isn’t good for the middle class, it’s this president,” Romney said. “This president does not understand how America works.” Though short on specifics, the former Massachusetts governor and Michigan native said he would work to get the private sector creating jobs at a faster pace if elected. “Job No. 1 for this president will be to create jobs for the American people,” Romney said. Romney again promised to repeal the Affordable Care Act and the Dodd-Frank financial reform law if elected president. He also pledged to balance the budget and lower taxes in an attempt to spur job growth.
Pro-Obama protesters, many of them holding signs reading “We Are the 99%” or “Romney for President of the 1%” gathered across the street from Romney, and they made their voices heard throughout his speech. Chants of “Four more years!” were heard while the former governor discussed Obama’s policies. Some Romney supporters responded with a chant of “Four more months!” Lansing mayor and 2010 Michigan Democratic gubernatorial candidate Virg Bernero was among the protesters. “When Michigan needed (Romney) most, he was not here,” Bernero said. “Meanwhile, President Obama saved the auto industry and saved the state.” Romney did not address the 2009 auto bailouts in his DeWitt speech. In 2008, Romney wrote
an editorial for the New York Times opposing the bailouts, titled “Let Detroit Go Bankrupt.” “Romney has to run away from his record, but President Obama can run on his record,” Bernero said. “Hopefully, we send Romney packing.” Romney was in DeWitt as part of a trip through three traditionally Republican Michigan towns Obama did well in four years ago. He visited Frankenmuth earlier in the day and was set to visit Holland later on. The Romney campaign hopes to reverse a trend in Michigan presidential politics. No Republican has won the state since George H. W. Bush in 1988. Obama won the state easily in 2008. metro@cm-life.com

Construction begins on Michigan Street, to continue through August By Sam Easter Staff Reporter
The second phase of making over Mount Pleasant’s Michigan Street is underway. Construction began Monday and is expected to continue through August 17, redeveloping roughly 0.3 miles of city street between Fancher and Washington. Roger Rousse, director of Public Works, said it’s time the street section was redeveloped. “The streets have a life cycle,” Rousse said. “That street is at the end of its life cycle.” The project is expected to cost $762,000. Malley Construction, the same contractor who provided labor for the previous project on Michigan Street, will also complete this project. The construction will re-
develop Michigan Street, replace portions of the storm sewer system and extend the sanitary sewer to some nearby buildings. Sewer leads will be installed at 401, 407 and 408 Michigan Street. A manhole will also be placed in front of Sacred Heart Academy at Franklin and Michigan streets. Rousse said the work should meet expected needs. “We don’t want to come back in five to 10 years and redig up the road,” Rousse said. Dan McGuire, co-owner of Mount Pleasant-based T-Rex Resources Inc., said the road has needed to be fixed for a long time. “The sidewalk out front has been crummy for years,” he said. “It’ll be good to get that fixed.” Many businesses representatives said they expect the
construction interruption to have a minimal impact on commerce. Tanya Ehrsam, office manager at Crystal Computer Support, said although CCS relies in part on foot traffic, she does not foresee any large problems. “It’s going to be broken up into small enough pieces that people should be able to access what they need downtown,” she said. Brian Walton, a barber at Bob’s Barbershop, agreed any economic dip during construction would be minor. “Most of our customers are repeat customers; they’ve been coming here for years,” Walton said. “It might affect some walk-in traffic, but, other than that, we’ll stay as steady as we always are.” metro@cm-life.com

the dues were for. According to UTF’s website, dues are used to “rent office space, hire staff, print newsletters and contribute to our affiliate organizations to gain support, training and guidance in negotiations and other activities.” “Their contract says they have deducted the wrong amount from my paycheck, and I have not been able to get an explanation about that from the union either,” Rusch said. “They’re aware of this lawsuit going on, and they respond to see my attorney.” Rusch is being represented by the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation.

GrandparentsU brings kids, alumni together on campus By Orrin Shawl Staff Reporter
College students will not be the only ones enjoying Central Michigan University’s campus this week. CMU is holding the fifth annual GrandparentsU on campus to give children from eight to 12-years-old and their grandparents a chance to not only explore CMU but for alumni to enjoy their old stomping grounds. Participants will be coming in at noon today and staying in Celani Hall until noon Friday. During the day, 130 kids and grandparents will be attending events hosted by the several individual colleges. In the evenings, they will use the Student Activity Center and the rock wall in Finch Fieldhouse for other events planned for them.
Assistant Director of Alumni Relations Anne Sanders said the event serves not only as a recruitment tool for children but is also a good event for aging alumni. “We look at it from both standpoints,” she said. “For many of these grandparents, it’s their first time coming back to campus in years.” Participants can choose from 22 different sessions to participate in, nine of which are new sessions. Sessions include “Bug Eyed: Things in the Scanning Electron Microscope,” “Behind the Scenes of CMU Public Television” and “Using Hollywood Film to Teach Science.” New sessions include gardening and healthy eating. “We try to switch it up,” Sanders said. “We offer the popular sessions again, but
we have so many repeat participants that we try to give them new opportunities just so they’re not doing the same thing.” Sanders said the majority of the grandparent participants are alumni, but they can also be kids and their grandparents who have never been to CMU but are related to someone who attended the university. There is a slight increase in attendance from last year, Sanders said, but they try to keep it at around 130 participants so everybody can stay in the dorm selected for the event. “We try to cap it at around 130, because we house them in one residence hall,” she said. “It (all) depends on how many dorm rooms are available.”
“UTF members have a voice in deciding the union’s annual plans, provide input on how we proceed as an organization and can authorize collective work actions,” the website reads. “As a member, you can help guide UTF by participating on committees—such as bargaining and organizing—and can also serve as a steward or hold office in UTF. Non-members have none of these rights.” Rusch said she received no information regarding what

MSA director Nana Korsah remembered as advocate for students By Kristopher Lodes Staff Reporter
Warm, generous and caring. These are words coworkers used to describe the late Nana Korsah, 64, Central Michigan University’s director of Master of Science Administration, who passed away over the weekend. Korsah died from an apparent heart attack, said Denise Schafer, MSA coordinator, in an email to staff.
“Any of you who had ever met this kind and scholarly man will know how much he will be missed,” Schafer said in Nana Korsah the email. “He was a dear and gentle soul; always the student advocate and supporter.” Korsah spent three years as MSA director. He worked
on international initiatives, including a trip to his home country of Ghana. He also worked with the global campus staff on offering the MSA program in India and China. “He loved his job, loved CMU and, more importantly, he loved that program,” said Roger Coles, interim dean of the College of Graduate Studies. “He kept preaching the benefits of getting an MSA degree.” Kim Gribben, assistant director of MSA, said Korsah
touched many lives with his sense of humor and numerous stories of his home country of Ghana. “We would always laugh a lot, because he would always say ‘that would be a million dollars,’ if you asked him for anything,” Gribben said. Korsah also helped work on a new concentration in research and administration that will start this fall, as well as overseeing the completion of customized textbooks for
the MSA core classes going through a curriculum revision. In his time, he hired three full-time temporary faculty, something the department never had before, Gribben said. “It created a real community of scholars and a better atmosphere for our students,” she said. “They felt they could come in and see faculty in the department, and that was another important accomplishment.” Rogers and Gribben both
spoke highly of Korsah’s work ethic and personality. “He was one of those people who, within minutes of meeting him, you felt you’ve known him all your life,” Gribben said. “It’s going to be a big loss for us.” According to a release by CMU, “a ceremony celebrating Dr. Korsah’s life will likely take place in his native country of Ghana.” university@cm-life.com

Classic cars impress in ‘Back to the Bricks’ car show downtown By Jeff Ketcham Staff Reporter
Downtown Mount Pleasant sported a flashy collection of model cars for the “Back to the Bricks: Heart of Michigan” promotional tour Friday. About 200 cars lined the streets, ranging from modern muscle cars and trucks to classics and hotrods. “Back to the Bricks” picked Mount Pleasant as a city for their promotional tour to increase awareness for their organization and some of their larger annual car shows. Mount Pleasant resident Marty Saliscury brought his 1968 Shelby GT500 to the show. He said he enjoys lo-
cal car shows because he knows a lot of people in the area who also restore classic cars, and he enjoys getting others interested in them. “(I) try to keep all these young kids involved in restoring cars,” Saliscury said. “That’s why I let people sit in the car all the time.” Central Michigan University junior Ben Sharpette, of Canton, and junior Rachel Sundelius, of St. Clair, said they came down to the car show for something different to do. “I’m a Ford fan; my dad works at Ford,” Sharpette said. “I like cars.” Sundelius said she didn’t know much about cars but liked the look of the trucks.
“It was exciting to have something new to do in town,” she said. The Pixie, 302 N. Mission Street, was one of the “Back to the Brick’s” points of interest, due to its 1950s style and periodic dine-in car shows. Pixie General Manager Teri Cregger said Pixie helps with some of the planning since the restaurant is used to people coming in with their classic and rod cars. “I would definitely recommend (this event); beautiful cars and such a nice variety,” Cregger said. “My favorites are actually classic cars, because my dad is a car collector.” metro@cm-life.com
Central Michigan University’s Campbell Hall was evacuated at about midnight last Wednesday after a small fire broke out in a first-floor kitchenette. Police reported that the fire was started accidentally. Residents believe that a stove knob was bumped, turning the burner on and causing a basket placed near it to catch fire. The fire alarm and sprinkler systems inside the residence hall were then activated. Police and two fire trucks arrived on the scene, and the fire was quickly put out. Traverse City senior Megan Gill said her room is next to the kitchen. She had been preparing for freshman orientation when the alarms went off. “We were all just sitting in there preparing stuff for the last orientation session, and something went off in the kitchen, sparking something,” she said. “The first thing we saw was the sprinklers going off, and there was a large black puddle seeping out of the kitchen.” All of Campbell Hall’s safety devices worked correctly, and safety procedures went according to plan, said CMU Police Officer Carl Williams. “The entire system did exactly what it was designed to do,” he said. “In the kitchenette area, the sprinkler system activated ... like it was supposed to. The water damage is excess water that came out of the kitchenette.” The sprinkler system caused heavy flooding, and first floor residents were unable to access their rooms
while cleanup was underway. The stove will be replaced, and other repairs to the kitchenette will be required. No other areas were damaged by the fire. At this time, it is unknown whether there was any significant water damage to
resident property caused by the sprinklers. Many residents who work on campus were sleeping or preparing for bed at the time of the incident. university@cm-life.com

MOVIE REVIEW
Environmentally friendly way to recycle campus technology
‘Madagascar 3’ fun for everyone
By Jeff Ketcham Staff Reporter
Central Michigan University has found a way to get paid for replacing computers in an environmentally friendly way. The answer comes in three parts, said Tom Rohrer, director of the Institute for Sustainability: reduce, reuse and recycle. In order to reduce the amount of technology CMU has to discard, the university is reducing how much it needs to purchase, he said. One of the primary examples of technological reduction is the campus printers. “It used to be everybody
By Caitlin Cheevers Staff Reporter
Very rarely do second or third installments end up as good as the original. “Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted” fought this stereotype. The movie begins with the four main characters: a lion, giraffe, hippo and zebra stuck in Africa with no way to get back to their beloved Central Park Zoo in New York City. They decide to swim to Monte Carlo, where they would meet up with the penguins and chimps and fly home. Then everything goes wrong. They break into a casino. Animal control is called. A crazy French woman hunts them down until their plane crashes. They are left with nowhere to escape.
able through the surplus sale so that those in the community can repurchase the products for reuse,” Smith said. CMU recycles old electronics by selling them to companies that will refurbish them or break them down for metal parts. “CMU has a deal with Waste Management called ‘Cash for Kits,’ where they agree to take small electronics off of our hands and pay a cash sum for it,” Smith said. “They also take items like floppy discs and compact discs to a store in Saginaw that purchases them back.”
in the faculty and staff had their own printer,” Rohrer said. “What we have done is network to a central printer.” CMU also tries to use their old technology for as long as possible, he said, such as using the same computers for four to five years before upgrading. “Everything goes through surplus,” Rohrer said. “We don’t throw anything away.” To complete the reuse step, CMU sells old technology to the public at the CMU surplus sale, said Steve Smith, director of public relations. “CMU makes computers and other electronics avail-

Until, of course, they notice they conveniently crashed next to a circus train. While I didn’t necessarily appreciate the jabs made at Africa and zoos, the storyline was entertaining and kept the audience laughing throughout. The audience was not only children, either, as many expect. The movie did an excellent job entertaining the older audience members throughout the show, cracking jokes about French labor laws and making references to older songs. While it might not have been intentional, it was still entertaining. The main aspect of the movie that makes it one of the best in the trilogy, however, is the special effects. In several scenes, the four main characters take part in a Cirque du Soleil-inspired trav-

eling circus that is sure to wow audience members of all ages. It is one of few movies that fully utilizes 3D effects in an almost “Avatar”-like fashion. The effects are natural, rather than forced. The scenes do not get congested with special effects so much that it seems busy, as can be seen in other 3D options. “Madagascar 3” is a hilarious movie that will entertain the whole family and is worth a few extra dollars to see it in 3D. studentlife@cm-life.com

Bridge
One of Mount Pleasant’s favorite summer pastimes is taking an inflatable tube and floating down the winding Chip River on a sunny day. The CM Life summer staff has spent many afternoons together enjoying this tradition and wanted to offer our readers fun tips on this handy page. We mapped our most common route from Chipp-A-Waters Park to Island Park. We hope it helps you find your own adventures as you plan your trip down Mount Pleasant’s all-natural water roller coaster ride.
A Popped tubes
CLIFF JUMPING A favorite jump-off spot for most tubers, the cliff is a tall ledge just before Brandell Bridge and Chipp-A-Waters Park. Peaking at about 10 to 15 feet high, depending on the water level, adventurous souls take a running start off this monster to jump out over the stony beach and into the river. You can easily count to two seconds in your free fall before you plunge into the river and come up gasping for air and another rush. Remember not to hesitate when you get to the edge, otherwise you could fall and injure yourself. We recommend going with someone who knows the precise jumping point. The cliff can be reached by walking the Chipp-AWaters Park path upstream or simply by starting your tubing adventure even farther upstream at either Meridian Park or Lincoln Street.
CHECKLIST
RAPIDS
Obtain Tubing Down the Chip River Map
We know. Chip River “rapids” are hardly white water rafting worthy, but don’t underestimate them. They carry a strong current choppy enough to flip your tube if you don’t watch out.
Park car #1 at Island Park Park car #2 at Chipp-A-Waters Park Blow up tubes Dip your toes in—it’s cold! Enter the river
The first spot you’ll come to is right by the Nelson Park swimming hole. The rocks will wedge together to form a narrow water slide. Aim for the middle, and you’ll be fine. The second spot you’ll hit is just as you enter Island Park. The water can get pretty rocky and shallow here, so butts up and hold on tight.
Catch a turtle Take a break at the sand bar Survive the river rapids Hop out and dry off at Island Park
CAUTION: The Cliff
Charlotte Bodak/Staff Photographer Water flows next to a ledge on the edge of the Chippewa River. This spot, which is a great place for students and residents to jump off into the water, and is just off a trail in Chipp-A-Waters Park.
PIT STOP: Sand bar
Kaitlin Thorne/Staff Photographer CMU students take a break from tubing on a sand bar to have a drink on a popular sandbar along the Chippewa River Friday afternoon.
