pus, low-cost, high-rent apartment
buildings can’t go up fast enough.
Average monthly rents have risen
by as much as $10 over the past
live years.
SKA was formed less than a
year ago to draw up model leases,
rate off campus apartments, and
provide legal advice on housing
to students. It was also conceived
as a pressure group, for lower
rents and decreased terms on
leases.
Since Michigan instituted a tri
mester calendar, most students
are in town only eight months a
year; they lake a substantial loss
when they sign the standard one
year lease and are then unable
to sublet for the summer.
Other Studies
Beyond the question of rents,
S1IA has done extensive studies in
tlie areas of building code revi
sions, parking facilities, apart
ment zoning and fraternity, soror
ity and dormitory zoning. So far,
however, Us proposals have re
ceived little attention from either
realtors or the city council.
tine city council member sug
gested that students would have
to “show their political power”
before they would get a hearing.
SIIA responded with letters to
tlie university’s 13.000 graduate
students, asking them to register
to vote in Ann Arbor. The letters
were endorsed by numerous other
student organizations, including
the Interfraternity Council, the
Young Democrats and the Young
Republicans.
Registration was made more
difficult by an ‘‘intent’’ clause in
the Michigan voting laws. The
only absolute requirements arc
that a person be 21, have lived
in Michigan for six months and
Ann Arbor for at least 30 days.
These requirements met, voting
rights arc determined by a state
ment of “intent" as judged by
the city clerk or a board of ap
peals.
in its letter to graduate stu
dents, SI IA noted that students
were "more likely” to be con
sidered eligible to vote in Ann
Arbor if they remained in Ann

homes if sick or injured, and were
self-supporting, married or could
otherwise establish their freedom
from parental control.
Students would not necessarily
be disqualified, the letter said, if
i they paid out-of-state tuition, were
i unsure of future residence, de
i pended on their parents for sup
i port, or were single. Attendance
at the university does not fulfill
the residence requirements, it
was noted, and the whole matter
was essentially one that could be
decided only by the clerk on indi
vidual cases.
Thirteen hundred students reg
istered in a 10-day period. Al
though a small proportion of the
18,000 who voted in the last elec
tion ,their power was concentrat
ed in three of the city's five wards.
A Republican party campaign let
ter called the registration of
"nearly 1,500 voters” a "most dis
turbing trend.’’
“Show of Force”
SHA did not, however, endorse
either party or specific candidates.
"This was merely a show of
force,” SHA President Robert
Bodkin explained.
With the election over^ SHA
plans to present its program for
an integrated City- University
Housing Program to City Coun
cil. The proposal, drawn up in
connection with local developers
and housing commission members,
advocates revision of some of the
building codes, a change in zoning
laws for some areas to allow high
rise apartments, and a change in
the land-usage laws to allow fam
ily and medium-rise apartments in
other areas.
SHA also plans a pamphlet on
student legal rights, an investiga
tion into university acquisitions
and leasing rights, and the estab
lishment of a mediation board.
