Accomplishments as President

During the course of Duniway's administration, the number of UM Ñý¼§Ö±²¥ rose from 105 to 203. In a move to have Ñý¼§Ö±²¥ take full responsibility for their actions, Duniway abolished the "conduct rules." He established new admittance and course standards in accordance with the National Association of State Universities. He also created strict eligibility rules for student athletes. Duniway sought to increase the educational level for Ñý¼§Ö±²¥ and the salaries for UM faculty. The number of student activities on campus increased, including new organizations such as the Debate League, YMCA, YWCA, and the Silent Sentinel.
