Education Council Approves
Proposed Five Year Program
By ROYCE A. WILLIAMS
Kernel Staff Writer
A proposal which may lead
to a five year program for teacher
training at the University was
approved by the Council of Public
Higher Education on April 14.
"It is possible that a five year
program could come in the future,
but such a program was not intended in the council's proposal,"
Mr. Richard Stofer, director of
the UK teacher-educatio- n
program, said.
Pending approval by the State
Board of Education, the proposal
requires Kentucky Public School
teachers to complete 30 additional semester hours within 10
years after receiving their bache

lor's degrees. The proposal would
go into effect in May, 1967.
"Teachers will receive their
provisional certificates after the
present four year program, but
the extra hours must be completed within 10 years if the certificate is renewed," Dr. Lyman
Ginger, dean of the College of
Education, said.
At present a teacher has to
teach four years and the certificate is automatically renewed.
Teachers who already hold certificates would not be affected
by the proposal, but "it is hoped
that they would take advantage
of the opportunity to better themselves," Dr. Ginger said.
The proposal follows a nation

wide trend in teacher education
with five or six states requiring
the additional hours to be completed within five years after the
bachelor's degree, Mr. Stofer
added.

If the proposal is approved by
the State Board of Education,

teachers would be required to
complete the extra 30 hours or
teaching certificates would not
be renewed, Dr. Ginger said.
The proposal is designed to
upgrade education in Kentucky
by offering the additional courses
in a "bootstrap" program to aid
the teachers in obtaining addi-

tional

preparation and

back-

ground in their field, Mr. Stofer
said.

The second phase in the research of the Student Centennial
Subcommittee on the Evaluation
of Teaching has been started,
Frank Bailey, subcommittee
chairman and freshman in the
College of Law said today.
Bailey explained that a team
of students is administering questionnaires to 200 randomly selected faculty members in the
second stage of the development
of an instrument to aid in the
evaluation of effective classroom
teaching.
The questionnaire was designed through faculty and student interview and through investigation of teaching evaluation on other campuses, the subcommittee chairman said.
In addition to the development of a measuring instrument,
the subcommittee intended that

* An Undue Privilege
Two readers in today's Letters
to the Editor column point out a
situation nettling some examination and evaluation. The letter, and
the library's director of circulation
state University faculty members
have a free hand in checking out
and keeping books. Their handful
of special priv ileges is free from the
jurisdiction of the library administration because, apparently, no
grouiid rules have been set.
Th eoret i ca y , book s a re c ha rged
out to faculty members on a semester basis. A date is stamped in
the back of the book requiring
recall on the last day of the
semester. But this stamp is a worthless dictate since faculty members
are not required to abide by the
deadline. In fact, library officials
admit this figurehead deadline is
stamped only for the convenience
of the library to give them an
approximate date of when the book
w ill be back in circulation.

dust on their shelves until the last
ditch effort when the library director appeals to the head of the
department governing the faculty
member. Perhaps then, but not
necessarily, the book will be returned.
This whole haphazard system
stems from the fact that faculty
members merit some kind of untouchable ivory towerism as far
as the library goes. As one library
official said, "the faculty is beyond
our reach and touch. Too far so,
apparently. An operation based on
a
system of return

faculty than the students, no system

y

It is time for library officials
to reconsider this free-- heeling system. The library should throw up
some checks to prevent it from
getting out of hand, if it is not so
already. Placing reasonable restrictions on faculty members is not a
violation of faculty privileges or
rights, but it's a protection for the
student and the Univ ersity.

Requires Stern Action
Kentucky State Police have compiled some figures that would be
shocking in a society less inured to
death on the highways than ours.
According to State Police Director
J. E. Bassett, 43 percent of the
drunken driving arrests made
police were amended to a
lesser charge in local courts last
year.
by-stat-

e

The figure rose toanalarmingtVi
percent in Louisv ille. The only conclusion to be drawn from this is that
our local courts simply do not treat
drunken driving as a serious offense.
Unfortunately, the courts probably are reflecting community attitudes in this regard. The tendency
is to be forebearing. By the time a

Abolish LKD?

man charged w ith drunken driving
appears in court he is not the same
man he was when he was arrested.
The old plea of undue hardship, of
the necessity of keeping the driving
priv ilege in order to make a living
is persuasive. So the charge is
amended.
Yet the latest figures available
show that drunken driving has
passed speeding as the leading
cause of road accidents. Governor
Breathitt has called on the courts to
adopt a sterner approach to drunken
driving. This newspaper seconds
the motion. It is a serious, dangerous offense, and it is high time we
started treating it as such.

Letters To The Editor:

Library Favors Faculty,
Student Librarians Claim
the Editor of the Kernel:
As it now stands, a faculty
member may check books out of
the Margaret I. King Library indefinitely. Although the date
stamped in the back of the book
indicates that it is due on the last
day of the last month of the semester, this date has no significance
other than to allow the faculty
member to get the book past the
door checker.
In practice, faculty members
are not charged fines for overdue
books and have been known to
keep books out for as long as 20
years. Even if he loses a book,
he is not required to pay for it.

y

If asked to return a book, he may
or may not, as he pleases, and no
action will be taken.
As students and library employes, we feel that this policy
encourages faculty members to
abuse their privileges. Students
should not be deprived of the use
of library materials due to a lack
of responsibility on the part of
faculty members, and a lack of
realism on the part of the library
administration.

Reflecting on this year's Little
Kentucky Derby, we find it difficult to be complimentary. Early
LKD weekends established a tradition at the University, a tradition
that netted dollars and cents for a
worthy cause, scholarships.
LKD profits have dwindled over
the last few years, a misfortunate,
but certainly not an unsurmount-able- ,
problem. This past LKD
bordered on the ridiculous. It lost
money, made many mad, and raised
the question, "Is LKD doomed?"
Controversy over the bicycle races
arose because of vague rules, rash
passage of a conflicting eligibility
rule, and alleged unethical conduct
by one judge, and resulted in unsportsmanlike conduct immediately
after the race, and many hard
feelings.
Particularly put on the spot
was the Saturday chairman, upon
whose shoulders, fell the burden
of deciding the winner because
other members of his committee
were not potentially impartial. His
decision does not warrant comment
here, but the fact that decision was
necessary, does. Had the rules been
clear, had that one judge disclosed
the infraction before the race, had
unbiased officials been chosen,

there would have, been no such
dispute.
The trouble didn't end when
cycling fans left the Sports Center
Saturday afternoon. That night,
e
low in
LKD presented an
"concerts." Excuse for not booking
talent was the
better, bigger-nam- e
risk involved. As it was, the show
lost money, and left a bigger deficit
in the entertainment column. Top
talent, be it pop or otherwise,
should be featured in this event,
the one with the most
potential.

Is Little Kentucky Derby
doomed? We hope not. Established
as a weekend "steeped in the tradition of the Bluegrass" and the
Louisville derby to provide financial aid to deserving students while
providing entertainment, LKD the
last few years has not lived up
to its founders' hopes.
We recognize

the problems inherent in making such an event
a success, but it is hard tq believe

a

entertaining

money-makin- g,

weekend cannot be run smopthly.
LKD should be continued, but to
fulfill its scholarship potential, and
not just to provide a planned weekend of

Law Faculty Questions Tenure Process
Having insufficient specific
knowledge of the facts relevant
to Miss Holroyd's case, we express no opinion as to the merits
of her cause. However, Miss Holroyd's predicament points up the
in the
need tor a
tenure and promotion decision
process.
Substance is best determined
within an appropriate procedural
context. In law we are scrupulous
in adhering to rules which allow
one to know by whom, in what
manner and why he is judged.
Ancient and recent history, for
y
example, the
proceedings of recent vintage, make
clear the fact that secret proceedings conducted by unknown

Judges not only provide the opportunity for the abuse of discretion, but destroy community
confidence in the institution ultimately responsible for the de- Articles appearing in the "University Soapbox" represent

cision. In a matter as significant
as tenure and promotion we sub

mit that it would be appropriate
to follow that legal model.
We do not suggest that the
e
affair be converted into a
trial. Hather, that as a
minimum the faculty member
be allowed to know who makes
this most significant decision,
and upon what criteria. So also
should such faculty member have
the right to discuss with the
committee his or her qualifications if he or she so desires.
Moreover, it would seem appropriate that a member of the
faculty who feels that he has
been prejudiced by the selection
of a biased committee or committee member be allowed to
challenge for cause the member
or the members of the committee.
