MEMORIAL RESOLUTION
James McC1e11an E11iott

James McC1e11an E11iott, a retired Assistant Professor of
Mechanica1 Engineering, died August 23, 1985. '

Professor E11iott earned a bache1or of science degree in
mechanica1 engineering in 1956, fo110wed by a master of
science degree in 1959 - both at the University of Kentucky.

After teaching severa1 years at the University of
Kentucky, E11iott took a four year 1eave of absence to do
further graduate work at the University of Minnesota. He then
returned to this University, where he taught unti1 i11 hea1th
forced his retirement. Professor E11iott's retirement became
effective Ju1y 1985.

Whi1e at the University of Kentucky, Professor E11iott
taught a wide variety of undergraduate engineering courses,
but his major interests were in f1uid mechanics and heat
transfer.

Through the engineering continuing education office,
Professor E11iott deve10ped and taught severa1 specia1 courses
to heTp emp10yees of state government extend their know1edge
of engineering and to prepare them to become registered
professionaT engineers.

*Absence expTained

 

 He was well respected by his students, who sought his
advice on both academic and non—academic matters. Professor
Elliott was never too busy to talk to a student, and it was
the rule, rather than the exception, to find one or more
students in his office any time during the day. Professor
Elliott's keen intellect, remarkable wit, and genuine
compassion will be missed by both his students and his
colleagues.

A native of Harrodsburg, Kentucky, Elliott was a member
of the Masonic Lodge, the ritual team of the Oleika Shrine and
Scottish rites, the Grand Lodge of Kentucky F & A.M., the
Thoroughbred Bass Club, and the Bruners Chapel Baptist Church
of Harrodsburg.

He is survived by his wife, Patricia M. Elliott; two
stepsons, Ronnie and Kevin Dolen; three brothers, Edwin T.
Elliott, Virgil P. Elliott, and Ralph G. Elliott; and two
sisters, Eunice Tyler and Genevieve McCandless.

(Prepared by Professor Robert A. Altenkirch, Department of Mechanical Engineering)

Professor Altenkirch requested that this resolution be spread upon the minutes
of the University Senate, and that copies be sent to the Elliott family. The
Chairman asked the Senators to stand for a moment of silence in tribute and respect
to Professor James McClellan Elliott.

Chairman Canon made the following announcements:

”There is a change in the agenda for today's meeting. We
have an addition to the agenda. Mr. Robert D. Bell, Chairman
of the Kentucky Advocates for Higher Education, was invited to
speak to the Senate by the Senate Council. Originally he had
been invited to speak to a later Senate Meeting, but the later
meeting turned out to be inconvenient for his schedule whereas
today's meeting was convenient. It also seemed appropriate to
have him talk about his group's activities on the same day
that we were having a budget presentation. Moreover, as the
Kentucky Advocates are trying to stimulate support for greater
state funding for higher education in the current session of
the General Assembly, it seems most appropriate to have Mr.
Bell talk to this body now before the session is very far
along.

Because we are having both the budget presentation today
and the talk by Mr. Bell, there will be little time left on
the agenda to consider the proposed revisions in the general
studies program. The Senate Council believed that the
remaining issues concerning the general studies program should
be considered at one time and not handled piecemeal over two
or three meetings. Consequently, we will not be considering
the general studies revision today. There will be a special

 

 meeting of the University Senate two weeks from today, Monday,
February 3, l986, at 3:05 p.m. in this room at which time the
only item of business will be the revision of the general
studies curriculum.

Also, let me mention briefly that the Senate Council
hosted a breakfast for the Fayette County legislative dele—
gation on December l6. Seven of the nine members of the
delegation were present as were all but two of the members of
the Senate Council. By-and—large we talked with the legisla—
tors on a one—on-one basis and tried to give them some
illustrations of the University's problems in accomplishing
good teaching and research from the faculty's perspective.
Many of the members of the delegation asked a lot of followup
questions and expressed a lot of interest in our problems and
what the legislature might do to help alleviate them. I be—
lieve it was a productive meeting and all in all the Fayette
County legislators have a better idea of the University's
problems. If possible, the Senate Council plans to followup
this meeting with another breakfast session with the delega-
tion next month.

Finally, let me announce the results of the nominating
ballot for the Board of Trustees. The person with the most
votes was Jim Kemp of the Department of Animal Sciences,
College of Agriculture, with l06 votes; Raymond Betts of the
History Department, Arts and Sciences, also of the Honors Pro—
gram, received 84 votes; Emmett Costich, College of Dentistry,
received 56 votes; Bob Bostrom, the College of Communications,
received 34 votes; Bobby Pass of the College of Agriculture,
Department of Entomology, received 3l votes; Louis Swift of
the Classics Department, Arts and Sciences, and Robert
Hemenway of the English Department in Arts and Sciences, tied
with 22 votes. These will be the people, assuming they are
all willing to stand for election, who will be on the second
ballot for the Board of Trustees.

Chairman Canon introduced Vice President for Administration James 0. King and
Associate Vice President for Budgetary and Fiscal Affairs Ed Carter to the Senate
for the purpose of outlining the University's l986—88 budget request. Chairman
Canon said it was unfortunate that the presentation to the University Senate pre-
ceded the Governor's budget message to the General Assembly by one day, but there
was no way of knowing when that would occur when the special University Senate meet—
ing was scheduled. He also noted that the budget presentation followed from a sug—
gestion by the Senate's Committtee on Insitutional Finances and Resource Alloca—
tion. One of the goals of this committee is to enhance administration/faculty
communication about budgetary and fiscal policies and choices. Both the Senate
Council and the speakers agreed that this presentation was a step in that direction.

Vice President King's remarks follow:

Vice President King expressed his appreciation for the
opportunity to meet with the Senate and discuss the Univer-

sity's budget request. He also expressed Dr. Singletary's
regret in not being able to attend the Senate Meeting.

 

 ”The first step in the biennial budget request," Vice
President King said, "is to update the planning process.”
This process began at the University on a formal basis in l976
when the first comprehensive plan was submitted to the Board
of Trustees for their approval. Since that time, planning has
been updated each two years as a part of the biennial budget
process.

"In January l985, the President met with the Chancellors
to resolve the broad planning assumptions which would be used
for this biennial budget submission. Using the broad assump—
tions as a guide, the Chancellors went about developing
specific planning assumptions for their respective sectors.
Once the sectors completed their phase of the planning, in-
cluding the programs, capital, and land use, it was brought
back to the University level where any conflicts were
resolved.”

Although the planning process is an internal one, Vice
President King said it was not done in isolation, because it
was the basis for the biennial budget request. He added that
the plan was very comprehensive integrating academic and
nonacademic needs. Planning for the University and providing
for the financial resources to make the plan a reality is
basic to getting this University closer to becoming a compre—
hensive, research and teaching institution. "I tell you about
this process because it is extremely important,” he said. It
became an integral part of the strategic planning by the Coun-
cil on Higher Education. He was pleased to see that one of
the provisions in the strategic plan for higher education
included the provision that the State should have one state-
wide university nationally recognized for scholarship,
research, and graduates and that the University of Kentucky
should emerge as that institution. In effect, the university
was a step ahead in its budget request of moving toward that
goal.

The planning document had five objectives: First, pro—
viding for the continuation of existing programs for meeting
existing contractual fixed costs such as staff benefits;
continuing institutional commitment to affirmative action and
equal opportunity; and putting the institution on a solid
financial footing by establishing recurring funding for activ-
ities which had previously and partially been funded on a
nonrecurring basis, such as equipment, library, renovation,
and computing needs.

He said the second planning objective was to provide
adequate support for faculty and staff through reaching the
benchmark median for all faculty salaries in l986—87, and
reaching the marketplace levels for staff salaries and
adequately supporting each faculty position and providing a
competitive environment to attract and retain quality faculty.

 

 The third objective, he said, was to identify and
actively support a limited number of Centers of Excellence
which would enhance the region's and state's economic develop—
ment. Those Centers are for aging, cancer prevention and
education, research and patient care, equine health care,
pharmaceutical science and technolOQy, computational sciences,
biotechnology, biomedical engineering, public administration,
and technical transfer.

Objective four is providing for the development and
enhancement of the institution's graduate and research pro-
grams through (l) increased graduate student support and (2)
special funding for equipment. The University has initiated
a special funding request for equipment. A bond issue has
been proposed so that the University can immediately acquire
approximately $30 million worth of equipment to be funded
through revenue bonds with the expectation that if the
university gets the equipment, we will keep it up—to—date with
replacements on a scheduled basis through the regular budget.

Planning objective five was to enhance and develop aca-
demic areas of excellence as a catalyst for support of
academic programs.

In conclusion Mr. King pointed out that the planning
process is comprehensive, and it is vital to the future of the
University. The planning process lets the University deter—
mine where it is now, where it wants to be in five years and
how to get there. He felt if the biennial budget request is
approved, the University would for the first time have re-
sources that are necessary to achieve excellence, to have
adequate faculty salaries and support, modern, state—of-the—
art equipment, adequate space, and the environment to attract
truly outstanding students.

He added that the Council on Higher Education has recom—
mended the budget essentially as it was requested except for
some new building projects. They did not recommend any build—
ing projects on the main campus. The request is now in the
hands of the Governor, and when she presents her budget
message the figures will be analyzed to know specifically the
impact they will have on the University of Kentucky.

Associate Vice President Carter's remarks follow:

Mr. Carter reviewed the months of work that went into the
development of the biennial budget. He presented several
charts to the Senate which he said reflected the Council‘s
recommendation to the Governor and not the original request.
The charts were an estimate not only of the state appropria—
tion need and expectations of revenue from other sources, but
also the projected amount of tuition and fee revenue to be
generated for the institution including the Community College
System as a result of the fee schedule which has been approved
by the Council.

 

 The capital projects recommended by the Council for the
Community College System include new buildings for Lexington,
Elizabethtown, Hazard, Prestonsburg, and Madisonville
Community Colleges, and on the Lexington campus $3l million of
academic equipment and a fire safety project in Patterson
Office Tower. [Charts follow at end of minutes]

In questions from the floor, Senator Allan Butterfield said he wondered if
there was any increased dollar figure anticipated for a typical graduate assis-
tant. Mr. Carter said that the graduate assistant would be included in the salary
catch—up package. If the package is fully funded, it would put the University in a
position of being very competitive with the benchmark institutions. Professor
Butterfield wanted to know if the $31 dollars for research equipment included a
”so—called super computer." Mr. King said part of the money was for the “super
computer.”

Senator Paul Eakin felt that putting that much money in a super computer might
well be a poor investment. Mr. Carter responded that this might be so from an
academic perspective, but he added that the request also took into account the eco-
nomic development needs of the state and that the request was "add on" money in
that nothing from UK's current computational needs was omitted from the budget and
that the super-computer was not part of the formula funding request.

The Chairman thanked Mr. Carter and Mr. King for their remarks to the Senate.

Chairman Canon introduced the next guest, Mr. Robert D. Bell. Mr. Bell is a UK
graduate, class of l949 in political science; did graduate work in public adminis-
tration and has spent most of his career in public service for the Commonwealth of
Kentucky. He has served in various cabinet posts under five different governors.
For the past eight years he has been an executive of the Ashland Oil Company and
currently he chairs the Board of Trustees of the Ashland Oil Foundation. He also is
chairman of the recently formed Kentucky Advocates for Higher Education and he was
asked to speak before the University Senate in that capacity.

A summary of Mr. Bell's remarks follows:

Mr. Bell said the Advocates for Higher Education had
its genesis in an unfortunate press story that occurred
when a speaker addressing the faculty senate at the
University of Louisville said that higher education would
not receive increased financial assistance from the General
Assembly before l988 because there were other pressing
governmental problems. That provoked considerable dis-
cussion within the broader higher education community.
”This caught the ear and eye of the lay regents and
trustees and for the first time there was communication in
the state among the lay leaders about higher education and
its needs,” he said. He added that new communication
started to build between the university presidents, the
chairmen of the Boards of Trustees and out of that came the
Kentucky Advocates for Higher Education, which was formed
in October. There are thirty—five directors of the organi—
zation who are broadly and fairly representative of all the

 

 institutions in the Commonwealth. He said they are not a
governance or study group but instead are advocates for the
broad generic interests of higher education in the state.
They are trying to raise the level of awareness of the
funding problem in higher education and hope to become some
kind of a catalyst to bring together the different elements
of this whole community and the interests of the whole.

They have filed articles of incorporation and estab—
lished a non-profit, non—stock corporation and adopted
three broad objectives. These objectives are: (l) to seek
full funding of the statutory formula that is in place in
Kentucky; (2) to be supportive of the new requests to
establish the Commonwealth Centers and the endowed chairs
for matching public and private donations; and (3) to
achieve more adequate financial assistance for students in
financial need.

Their first effort was the January 6 rallies which
were held in eight locations across the state. He said
they could be considered successful by any standard of
measurement. The attendance was quite good and exceeded
the expectations of the press. He said the coverage was
almost phenomenal. "One of the primary purposes of holding
those events was to stage an event that would attract
attention, raise visibility, cause press commentary, and
attract the interest of elected officials," he said. He
added there was very effective and positive coverage at all
state, regional and local newspapers about the events.

He felt the movement of large companies in the state
to signal the elected leaders that they are not only
strongly for any steps taken to enhance quality education
in the state, but they are willing to pay for it was
helpful in creating the climate that made the special
session possible and certainly made the votes possible in
the general assembly. He also felt the lay citizens town
meetings sponsored by the Prichard Committee were helpful.

Mr. Bell said the group was trying to plagiarize some
of the excitement and color that people are attracted to at
collegiate athletics; to seize that and capture some of
those techniques and turn them into something that will be
for a more lofty purpose, the support of quality higher
education across the state. He said they were meeting with
some success. He said the Advocates' efforts were in an

area of what he called soft politics. He now have a
younger breed of political people who read polls, watch
television and who wait for signals to see if there is an
interest, concern and organization to a constituency. If
there is, they are drawn to it. The KAHE is trying to show
the state legislators that there is a concern and comnit—
ment throughout the state. The constituency extends beyond
students and faculty into alumni, friends and concerned
citizens.

 

 The Advocates next rally will be February 5 in
Frankfort. He said they were going to create a scene ther
which would involve lots of people, color and excitement to
attract the media and political leaders, but also some
things would be said that are serious. Former North
Carolina Governor, James Hunt, who showed great concern and
interest in higher education during the eight years he was
Governor, will be the speaker. Also, the Advocates will
give away a van which will attract some interest and
attention.

Mr. Bell said the group has had the best support from
the press that he has ever encountered in all the good
causes in which he has been involved, and he felt the news
people are interested in what the Advocates are doing. He
added that they are going to do everything they can to make
the public have a greater awareness about the problems of
higher education. They are going to raise the visibility
of this issue, but most important of all they seek to
coalesce this broad group of interested people which ex-
tends to students, parents, faculty, staff, and alumni.

He said he hoped the faculty would understand, as they
read about it in the paper, what the Advocates are doing.

Senator Andy Grimes told Mr. Bell he was glad he was out there and the Senators
applauded enthusiastically.

Senator Jesse Neil wanted to know if the main agenda of the group was to set up
media events that will demonstrate public interest or if there was some one—on—one
lobbying. Mr. Bellts response was that there was a lot of one—on—one lobbying which
has been going on for several months. Mr. Bell said he was impressed with the posi-
tive and favorable quotations that are being printed in the small newspapers in the
state from members of the General Assembly concerning their interest in higher edu-
cation. He said it was of utmost importance that the legislative delegations in the
General Assembly who represent the constituencies where there are Community Colleges
be on board. He further stated that the expression of the faculty“s interest to the
legislators was meaningful. He told the Senate not to assume it would be discounted
because they worked at the University.

Mr. Bell named many large companies who are working in the interest of higher
education, and will work during the current session. He said it was good business
and to their interest, and he felt the business community in this state has come to
the conclusion that they must do something. He said that Ashland Oil had decided if
they were going to grow in Kentucky, there had to be some growth to Kentucky

Mr. Bell believed the Advocates will become a permanent organization. He said
they might be more effective as a group of lay citizens.

The date of the Rally is February 5, in the late afternoon. Mr. Bell said the
larger the crowd the more impact it would have. Mr. Bell thanked the Senate and
again he was applauded.

 

 The Chairman thanked Mr. BeTT and echoed Andy Grimes' statement, ”We're gTad you
are out there." The Chairman said he did not think there had been a citizens group
that has come forward to advocate increased funding or even attention to higher
education. He said he certainTy hoped it continued beyond the current GeneraT
Assembiy.

Mr. King said he wanted to echo Chairman Canon's statement that the Advocates
continue. He said for the first time there were business and community Teaders
pushing for higher education rather than primary and secondary education onTy.

The Chairman reminded the Senators again about the special meeting on Monday,
February 3, at 3:05 p.m. for the purpose of finishing the revision of the genera]
studies curricuTum.

The meeting adjourned at 4:30 p.m.

University Senate Council

AGENDA ITEM: University Senate Meeting, Monday, January 20,
1986. Proposed Revision of the General Studies Curriculum.

As you recall, fifteen amendments were offered to the proposed
revision of the General Studies program developed in the Swift
Committee's Report. The Senate disposed seven of the amendments at
the December meeting, with Numbers 1 through 6 having failed and
Amendment 7 having been adopted. When the Swift Committee Report is
on the floor at the January meeting, we will continue consideration of
the amendments beginning with Amendment Number 8.

The same rules that applied to consideration of the amendments
at the December meeting will apply in January. There will be 15
minutes of debate per amendment, limited to 2 1/2 minutes per
speaker. The sponsor of the amendment may speak first and offer a
final rebuttal. Otherwise persons should speak only once on an
amendment. (Amendments to the amendments may be moved and, if
seconded, may be debated for five additional minutes.) Motions to
shorten the debate time (previous question) or to lengthen it will
require a 2/3 vote to pass.

Again, for reasons of economy, the committee Report and the
package of amendments distributed for the Novembe
