Universities bring budget woes to Frankfort

Ry .l.\\' HI..\.\"I‘(|\
Executive Editor
FRANKFURT 1 UK President
David Roselle just recently learned
that two faculty members were
leaving UK because the University
could not afford to pay them com-
petitivesalaries.

But that is only the beginning of
the vacating faculty list. Roselle
said yesterday.

The University has recently lost
faculty in political science. chemis—
try. statistics and history -. simply
because t‘K cannot match offers
that professors are getting from
other institutions.

“We compete for our faculty in a
national arena." Roselle said. ”The
building of good faculty is a long-
term commitment and Gov. Wallace
Wilkinson‘s budget proposal is a set-
back to that commitment.“

Wilkinson
apparently
backs Gore

Associated Press

FRANKFORT —— All indications
are that Gov. Wallace Wilkinson will
endorse US. Sen. Albert Gore Jr. of
Tennessee for the Democratic presi-
dential nomination instead of Massa-
chusetts Gov. Michael Dukakis.

Wilkinson is scheduled to attend a
news conference Monday morning at
the National Press Club in Washing-
ton. D.C. The room has been re-
served by Gore‘s presidential cam—
paign committee.

Wilkinson said Tuesday that he
had made his decision and informed
the candidate. But he declined to
name his choice.

Sources have told several Ken-
tucky newspapers and The Asso-
ciated Press that Wilkinson picked
Gore.

Early last month. Wilkinson said
he was inclined to back Dukakis. cit-
ing the Massachusetts governor’s
economic development policies and
the perception that he was the can-
didate best positioned to beat the
Republicans in November.

But Wilkinson left himself an out.
saying then. “I reserve the right to
change my mind."

The Gore campaign reacted swift-
ly. Gore traveled to Frankfort for a
40-minute discussion with the gover-
nor in his office. The two emerged
with Wilkinson saying he could sup-
port either Gore or Dukakis.

Later that same week. Wilkinson
hosted a dinner for about 150 of his
political supporters. Their sentiment
was overwhelmingly in Gore’s
favor. although they said they would
back the governor‘s choice.

Wilkinson‘s endorsement could
come at a key time for Gore. who is
banking on a successful perfor-
mance in the “Super Tuesday“ pri-
mary on March 8 throughout South-
ern and border states to propel his
candidacy.

Recent polls indicate that former
US. Sen. Gary Hart of Colorado is
leading in the South despite Gore‘s
extensive efforts. Support from Wil-
kinson almost assuredly would boost
Gore‘s chances in Kentucky.

If he chooses Gore. Wilkinson
would become the second Southern
governor to throw support Gore's
way. joining Tennessee Gov. Ned
Ray McWherter.

 

"fink“ Logislature

But there probably weren‘t too
many tears shed for UK‘s situation
in the Capitol yesterday.

In a hearing that lasted more than
three hours. presidents from the
state's eight universities appeared
before a House subcommittee on ed~
ucation to paint the same dismal
picture about the effects of Gov.
Wallace Wilkinson‘s budget proposal
on higher education.

The eight presidents all voiced the
same concern to the 10-member
committee ~ the governor's budget.
if passed. is a step backward for
higher education.

Specifically. each university presi-

dent said that the governor‘s budget
recommendations for higher educa-
tion funding would:

- make it hard to keep up with the
fixed costs at a university. which in-
clude social security and life and
health insurance.

- result in layoffs of faculty and
staff as well as affect the ability to
conduct basic maintenance.

- impair access for students want-
ing to go on to college (because of
resulting increases in tuition rates t.

0 allow no room for faculty salary
increases next year and only a slight
one the following year.

Wilkinson‘s budget recommends a
0.5-percent increase in higher educa-
tion funding in the 198089 fiscal year
and a 5-percent increase the follow
ing year.

The presidents each agreed that
something must be done with state‘s

While most presidents did not call
outright for a tax increase. they
agreed tlial the tax structure of the
state must be re-examined.

revenues are needed." said Univer-
sity of Louisville President Donald

Scholarships make French stays possible

By JULIE ISSl-Il..VIAN
Staff Writer

UK students who are proficient in
French and eager to spend a year in
France may now apply for schol-
arships either to study at a French
University or to teach at a grade-
school.

The Deauville (France) Twin Cit-
ies Association is sponsoring the
UK-Deauville Scholarship Program
to provide funds for one UK student
to study at the University of Caen
and one student to be a teaching as-
sistant in France next year.

“It‘s something the twin-city pro-
gram has arranged.“ said Suzanne
Kifer. study abroad adviser for the
UK Office of International Affairs.
“but we're doing the selecting (of
students)."

A scholarship recipient will enroll
in the University of Caen and either
take a special French language
training course or enroll directly as
a regular student. depending on the
student‘s language skills.

“If they need to improve their
French. they can participate in
courses geared for foreign stu-
dents.“ Kifer said. Otherwise. “they
can choose from the courses offered
by the University,"

This includes French literature.
civilization and methodology of tea-
ching French as a foreign language.
The student mint make arrange-
ments with his or her adviser to
gain approval for proper transfer of
credit.

The scholarship will pay for tu-
ition and loruing either with a
French family or in a dormitory. but

the recipient will have to provide his
or her own funds for travel. food and
other expenses.

Once in France. the student is in a
very independent position, Kifer
said. “They‘re on their own com-
pletely.“ she said. “They may have
some contacts there. They can take
whatever trips they want, do what-
ever they want.“

For this reason. the scholarship
committee is looking for open—
minded and readily adaptable stu-
dents. Kifer said.

“It taku a very mature kind of
student became you‘re going on
your own to live in France." she
said.

in addition to being in their third
year of college-level French and
having had the equivalent of FR 312.
students ahmfld show academic ex~

cellence. knowledge of France and a
great deal of motivation. according
to the selection criteria.

The recipient of the teaching as-
sistant scholarship will teach con-
versational English at an elemen-
tary school in Deauville. in the
region of Normandy. Estelle Dufils.
an exchange student from Deauville.
said the city is “just wonderful. "‘5
a tourism town. right on the beach."

The scholarship provides for lodg-
ing. salary and partial board. with
the possibility of classes at the Uni-
versity of Caen once a week.

To be eligible. students should
have had at least two years of
French as well as teaching experi-
ence and “sensibility to children."

Applications are available in 102
Bradley Hall and should be turned
in by Feb. it.

done. saying that Kentucky needs to
reorganize its tax base.

Since 1972 the state has had a se-
ries of tax cuts. Burse said Now
might be the time to increase taxes.

A tax increase. though. is some-
thing that Wilkinson has said he will
not consider. at least for the first
two years of his administration.

Under the governor‘s budget pro—
posal. UK would receive a additional
$900000 in state revenues next year.

Arts & Sciences hopes
fund-raiser nets $30,000

By AMY HECKROTTE
Contributing Writer

“Invest in the Future" is the
theme of the fourth annual College
of Arts & Sciences phone-a-thon
which will be held Feb. 7-l8 at the
Survey Research Center,

Mary Burg. director of alumni af-
fairs for the college. said she hoped
to raise more than $30,000. which is
36,000 more than last year's pledges.

“Private donations are even more
important to the college this year.“
Burg said.

if Kentucky Gov. Wallace Wilkin-
son‘s budget is approved by the Gen-
eral Assembly. the college might
have to stop some of the services it
offers. she said.

Each department maintains an ac-
tive research program. in addition
to performing community service
activities.

The money raised through the
phone~a-thon can go to any depart-
ment the pledger wants. Burg said.
For instance. one year a man gave
equal amounts to the UK Marching
Band and to one of the academic
disciplines in the college.

As in the past. Burg said the
phonea-thon will also take sugges-
tiom from alumni on how the col-
lege could be improved.

"After each phone-a-thon We sent

many memos to appropriate depart-
ments relaying messages tabout the
suggestions offered Rurg said

This year scholarships of $1.250

were awarded to four Arts 8:
Sciences college freshmen from
money raised by photie-a~thons.
Burg said

"We would like to increase our
scholarships next year." Burg said.

Donations have also increased the
academic enrichment program. she
said, Some events made possible
were the English department‘s \‘isit-
ing Writers Series and talks spon-
sored by the physics and astronomy
departments about Supernova 1987A.
which was the most brilliant explod-
ing star discovered by scientists in
more than 300 years

This year. Burg said about 8.000
alumni would he called. Burg said
she anticipates one pledge to be
made for every four calls made.

“Our previous phone-a-thons have
been successes.” Burg said. “last
year we had a 90-percent return of
pledges made. “

The first phone-a-thon in 135
raised “5.000 in pledges she said.
and in 1906 that figure increased to
326.000.

“Whatever the amount raised this
year." Burg said. "we'll comider
the phone~a-thon a success.“

OUniversity heads talk budget woes

Continued from Page I

but Rosette said the costs of social
security, new buildings and a 2-per-
cent salary increase would cost
about $8.5 million next year.

It is particularly distressing, he
said, that the governor's budget
doesn‘t recommend the a 2-percent
raise for University employees that
all other state employees would re-
ceive.

UK is $3,200 behind comparable
institutions in faculty salaries. With
the governor‘s budget UK would fall
even further behind, Roselle said.

“I find it difficult to deal with the
fact (that university employees)
weren't included in the small in-
crease,“ Roselle said.

Other state universities, however,
face even worse problems in keep-
ing faculty salaries at a competitive
level.

At Murray State University, fac-
ulty salaries are $7,500 behind its
benchmark schools, according to
MSU President Kayla Stroup. With
the budget proposal MSU salaries
would fall $9,100 behind in the
1988-89 fiscal year.

Trying to cope with low faculty
salaries and other budget con—
straints will also seriously affect
students and their access to univer-
sities, according to Nelson Grote,
president at Morehead State Univer—
sity.

Morehead has committed $1.2 mil»
lion to student financial aid. Grote
said, but with the budget presented
the school will have to reduce finan-
cial aid money.

This reduction would come at time
when education in eastern Ken~
tucky. where Morehead is located,
has just started to take off. Grate
said. This surge in interest for high-
er education is reflected in in-
creased community college enroll-
ment and more students obtaining
high school diplomas or equivalent
diplomas.

But with the proposed budget the
signal being sent is that “maybe
higher education isn't too impor-
tant," he said.

The proposed budget, if enacted
by the legislature, also could mean
turning away prospective students,
said Kern Alexander, president of
Western Kentucky University.

With rapidly increasing enroll-
ment in the last few years and lower
state appropriations. WKU is being

forced to consider not letting some
students come to Western,
Alexander said. One out of every 10
students at WKU will not be fi-
nanced by state appropriations.

But beyond students, low funding
for higher education could have a
serious impact on the economic de-
velopment of the state, Swain said.

By not funding higher eduation ad-
equately, Swain said the state is
“uncoupling" itself from economic
development.

“If we don‘t have (this link) we
are making a colossal mistake," he
said. “What a mistake.“

In his six years at KSU, Burse
said he always thought he was mov-
ing forward.

But with this budget, he said.
"this will be the first time (we)
have to walk backward."

 Kennedy approved 97-0 to highest court

By JAMES H. RUBIN
Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The Senate
swiftly and unanimously confirmed
Anthony M. Kennedy to the Supreme
Court yesterday. ending a ferocious
political battle that began seven
months ago.

Kennedy. a federal appeals court
judge who was President Ronald
Reagan‘s third choice to succeed re-
tired Justice Lewis F. Powell. was
approved by 97—0 with Democrats
and Republicans alike praising him
as a moderate. open-minded conser-
vative.

Reagan. in a statement. said he is
“extremely pleased" and declared
Kennedy “will make an outstanding
addition to the Supreme Court. . . .
The Senate has not only restored to
the nation a full nine-member Su-
preme Court. it has reaffirmed this

country’ s commitment to the philos-
ophy of judicial restraint."

ln Sacramento Calif. Kennedy is-
sued a statement saying he could
“conceive of no greater honor for an
attorney or a judge" than to serve
on the Supreme Court. and adding
he is committed to the American
constitutional system.

Kennedy. 51. will be sworn into of-
fice Feb. 18. becoming the 104th jus-
tice in the history of the nation’s
highest court.

He is expected to play a pivotal
role on the sharply divided court.
particularly on such issues as abor-
tion. affirmative action and separa-
tion of church and state.

His confirmation. after a pro
t'orma one~hour debate. was in
marked contrast to the stormy fight
touched off by the nomination last
July of Robert H. Bork.

Bork, Reagan's first choice to fill

the vacancy created by Powell' 5
June 26 retirement was denounced
as a rigid right-wing ideologue who
threatened individual freedom and
civil rights progress. The Senate re-
jected him by 5842 on Oct. 23.

Reagan, calling Bork the victim of
a lynch mob. then picked Douglas H.
Ginsburg, who withdrew from con-
sideration after admitting he had
smoked marijuana while a Harvard
law school professor.

Kennedy was extolled Wednesday
by Sen. Edward M. Kennedy. D-
Mass.. as a man of “integrity. intel~
Iigence. courage and crafts-
manship“ embracing a "judicial
philosophy that places him within
the mainstream of constitutional in-
terpretation."

The liberal senator. who is not re-
lated to the nominee, was pinchhit-
ting for Sen. Joseph R. Biden Jr.. D»

Dot. in leading the placid Senate do-
hate.

Biden, chairman of the Senate Ju-
diciary Committee that recommend-
ed Kennedy's confirmation by a 14-0
vote. missed yesterday's debate be-
cause of illness.

Also absent were two presidential
candidates. Sens. Albert Gore Jr..
D-Tenn., and Paul Simon, D—Ill.

Conservative Sen. Strom Thur-
mond. R~S.C.. called Kennedy “one
of the most eminently qualified indi-
viduals to be nominated" to the
court.

“Judge Kennedy has vast judicial
experience. participating in over
1,400 decisions and authoring over
400 published opinions.“ Thurmond
said.

But liberals said they still have
doubts about Kennedy‘s commit~
ment to equality for women and mi-
norities.

OArbitration article

Continued from Page I

"All these things are double-
edged swords.“ Stipanowich said.
For example. if one of the parties
involved in an arbitration action
protests the decision of the panel.
the decision may then be re-
viewed by a court.

In other cases, the arbitrators
may be slow: “The hearings
themselves may drag on longer"
than in a courtroom. he said.

Nevertheless. "I think the proc.
ess. in many ways. has been pro-
ven to be superior." Stipanowich
said.

Stipanowich has written seve-
ral other articles on commercial
arbitration, including one pub.
lished last year on whether arbi—
trators can award punitive dam-
ages.

The February issue of the ln-
diana Law Journal will include
an article he did regarding law—
yers' experiences in commercial
arbitration cases. The basic in-
formation came from a survey by
the American Bar Association.
but Stipanowich spent more than
15o hours doing a computer anal-
ysis ot the raw data. he said.

Viewpoint

SGA policy fetters
education charge
of student lobbyists

As higher education in Kentucky is reaching a crisis
point. many sectors of the UK community are rallying to-
gether.

We would like to congratulate and encourage these sec-
tors. not least of all the Student Government Association.
SGA‘s Student Lobby group has been working to gather
and present student opinion to our state legislators in
Frankfort.

So far. the group has begun working in favor of several
issues. including bills concerning scholarships, the appoint-
ment of trustees and the establishment of a higher educa-
tion investment plan. The group has also identified the
need to oppose a local business group attempting to make
commercialization of the Student Center illegal.

But as things start to heat up. we think they can do bet-
ter, And so we want the SGA to rid the lobby of its ball and
chain.

As it stands. the Student Lobby must seek permission
from the Senate every time it wants to take a stand on a
particular bill. This means that every time an issue or bill
comes up in committee or the floor of the General Assem-
bly. the lobby group theoretically must wait until the next
SGA Senate meeting before it can tell legislators what stu-
dents think.

Maintaining control over your forces is a good idea. but
this restriction completely ignores all sense of timing and
intensity in the legislative process.

The SGA Senate meets every two weeks to vote on legis-
lative action. The General Assembly meets daily for 60
days every two years. Which means that come the begin—
ning of April. everything will be all over.

Important issues and bills concerning higher education
are brought up every day. By the time the Student Lobby
goes to the Senate. gets the key to its shackles, rubs its
wrists and begins work. it might be two weeks behind. And
even more. since a lot of jockeying is done behind the
scenes even before a bill is officially discussed.

The Student Lobby was left with a charge to lobby for
higher education. We suggest they be allowed to do that as
efficiently as possible.

The lobbyists were selected on the basis of trust. qualifi-
cations and political know-how, When they sense an impor-
tant opportunity to help the University‘s cause, they should
be free to act .

Which doesn’t mean they should be allowed to roam
free. The group should be required to report all attempts,
progress and money spent every two weeks when the Sen-
ate meets.

The Senate should keep a heavy eye on the purse
strings. but a l
