HURRICANES OWNER KARMANOS FIGHTS HARASSMENT CHARGES

          Sexual harassment allegations levied by two former
     Compuware employees against company Chair and Hurricanes
     Owner PETER KARMANOS are the subject of an extensive feature
     by BUSINESS WEEK's Joann Muller.  Compuware's Board of
     Directors fired Senior VP/Human Resources SHEILA MCKINNON in
     May '98 after an investigation by an outside attorney could
     not verify her claims of sexual harassment.  In addition,
     Karmanos' former secretary TROY STRONG quit and claimed that
     Karmanos sexually harassed her.  BUSINESS WEEK's Muller: "As
     with all allegations of sexual harassment, those lodged
     against a CEO can be virtually impossible to prove or
     disprove."  Karmanos, who has denied the allegations: "You
     sit here, running a company for 26 years, and then this."  
     McKinnon's suit against Compuware was settled out of court,
     while Strong's is still pending (BUSINESS WEEK, 7/5 issue).
