- Description:
- Clifton Wharton, former president of Michigan State University, talks about his role in the creation of the university's Faculty Grievance Policy (FGP) and Faculty Grievance Official (FGO). Wharton says that he was comfortable with labor unions and that the FGP was not created to thwart faculty unionization efforts. In fact, he says, most MSU faculty preferred the grievance model he proposed to unionization. Wharton also talks about the structure of the land grant institution he inherited in 1969, some of the innovations he implemented during a time of tremendous social change, his relationship with MSU Board of Trustees and the uproar over the public disclosure of MSU faculty and staff salaries. Wharton is interviewed by Robert Banks, former MSU associate provost and associate vice president for Academic Human Resources and John Revitte, MSU professor emeritus of Labor Studies.

- C. Patrick "Lash" Larrowe, Michigan State University professor emeritus of economics talks about his association with Jack Stieber, director of MSU's School of Labor and Industrial Relations, about several other persons with whom he worked, some of the classes he taught, and his many students over the years. He recalls the shift on the MSU Board of Trustees from Republican to Democratic and the role played by the UAW and the state Democratic party in MSU affairs. Larrowe also recalls his involvement in various MSU administrative initiatives and criticizes what he calls an "aloof" administration and a "compliant" faculty. Larrowe candidly discusses fellow faculty, what he calls their lack of motivation, why they stay at MSU, their failure to publish, and their salaries. Ends abruptly. Larrowe is interviewed by John Revitte, MSU professor of Labor and Industrial Relations.
