DR Vernon Crawford chancellor of the University System of Georgia spoke before a Georgia General Assembly joint House and Senate appropriations committee January 26 to inform its members of the recent accomplishments as well as the current needs of the University System
Referring to the Fiscal Year 85 budget Dr Crawford stressed the four recommendations made in the final report of the Study Committee on Public Higher Education Finance entitled Formula for Excellence issued in September 1982 Those four recommendations which Dr Crawford said the Board of Regents and its staff have been endorsing for the past two years are
1that the teaching institutions generating indirect income on research grants and contracts be allowed to retain these funds in their budgets
2that one percent be added to the budget for quality improvement
3that a Major Repair and Rehabilitation Fund be established for each years operation of the physical plant at an amount equal to three quarters of one percent of the plant replacement value and
4that student tuition and fees be raised until in aggregate students pay 25 of the cost of their education the amount of the annual tuition and fee increase not to exceed 15
In reference to recommendation number four Dr Crawford said that as a result of increases approved by the Regents students are now paying 237 of the cost of their education and one more increase will bring their contribution up to the 25 level
Dr Crawford said that Governor Joe Frank Harris has addressed the first recommendation in his Fiscal Year 85 budget by urging a phasein of 100 retention of the indirect cost recoveries over a threeyear period and he addressed the second point by recommending that 6 million be allocated for quality improvement
Dr Crawford praised the Governor for recognizing the needs in these two areas and he added that Governor Harris recommendations indicate a keen awareness of the value ot incentives to raise money for external sources and the need to improve quality continually
Dr Crawford asked the legislators to preserve the additions which the Governor has recommended and said that these additions would help make substantial progress toward full formula funding
In referring to the reports third recommendation the Chancellor asked the legislators to be aware of the need to appropriate three quarters of one percent of the plant replacement value to a Major Repair and Renovation Fund raising the amount to 177 million rather than the 59 million recommended by Governor Harris Dr Crawford emphasized the significance of the problems caused by deferred maintenance
Another goal for the Fiscal Year 85 budget Dr Crawford said is to receive 3 million for the enhancement ot the campuses of the
three traditionally black institutions This amount was specified by the original desegregation program and has been requested by the Regents but not received every year since

Regents7 Test Issue Is Settled Remediation Plan Announced
A SETTLEMENT ON THE REGENTS TEST ISSUE was announced May 31 by federal and state government officials
Harry Singleton assistant secretary for civil rights in the
US Department of Education and Gov Joe Frank Harris made the announcement at a press conference also attended by University System Chancellor Vernon Crawford several members of the Board of Regents the presidents of Georgias three traditionally black institutions TBls and other government and education officials who have been involved in negotiations for several weeks
The settlement is based largely on a plan for improving Regents Test remediation and related program at the TBls The plan includes the following measures
implementation of a requirement that students who have failed the test complete approximately 50 hours of remediation each quarter before retaking the test
regular scheduling of preparation and information sessions which will include instruction in testtaking techniques for students prior to their taking the test
maintenance of a studentteacher ratio of no more than 20 to 1 for each Regents Test remediation course
development ot fully stafted and equipped reading and writing laboratories with laboratory instruction required for students enrolled in Regents Test remediation courses
development of a monitoring system by Regents statl in cooperation with institutional personnel for enforcing requirements relating to the Regents Testing Program
increased coordination between developmental studies programs and freshman English programs especially relating to the requirements for exiting developmental studies
Continued on Next Page
Continued from Previous Page
implementation of procedures for evaluation of the effectiveness of Regents Test remediation programs to involve personnel at both the TBIs and the Regents staff level
establishment of minimum guidelines for composition components of the required freshman English courses at the TBIs and
implementation of a Writing Across the Curriculum program at each of the TBIs in order to provide sustained practice in writing skills developed by students in English courses
The settlement also includes an agreement for 500000 to be used in improving Regents Test remediation and other related programs at the TBIs which are Albany State Fort Valley State and Savannah State colleges Of this total amount 300000 will be provided on a continuing basis through a special allocation of 150000 from the Board of Regents and through the reallocation of institutional funds which will enable each TB1 to provide at least 50000 The Office of the Governor will contribute the remaining 200000 in a onetime expenditure
W H Bruning president of Computer Service Company Control Data Corporation was on hand at the press conference to announce Control Datas donation of 36 PLATO computers for use in Regents Test remediation and developmental studies at the TBIs Control Data will also provide support staff to assist in the training of personnel and in the development of additional instructional software as needed The companys contribution is valued in excess of 150000
In announcing the settlement Mr Singleton said he is especially pleased that efforts have been focused on equalizing the opportunities to pass the test rather than on the elimination of the test This approach he continued fosters the dual commitment of this administration to excellence as well as equity in education
Chancellor Crawford and Board of Regents Chairman Sidney O Smith Jr echoed this sentiment Chairman Smith added that while the focus of the plan is on the stengthcning of the Regents Test programs at the TBIs many of the measures may also be implemented throughout the System because of their general educational value in relation to Regents Test practices procedures and related instruction
All those present expressed appreciation to Control Data Stated Chancellor Crawford The generous contribution of Control Data Corporation of stateoftheart equipment is a most welcome outcome exemplifying as it does the type of involvement of the private sector in public education which is essential if both are to prosper
The settlement announcement was the end result of negotiations initiated in April after Department of Education officials questioned the use of the Regents Test as a degree requirement Federal officials said Regents Test remediation was inadequate at the TBIs where students fail the test in higher proportions than students at other University System colleges
Special Engineering Committee Authorized to Continue Study
The Special Regents Committee which was appointed at the Board of Regents May meeting to study the feasibility of establishing an engineering degree program in the Middle Georgia area received authorization from the Board in June to proceed with a careful study of the best methods to bring such a program into being
According to a statement adopted by the Regents Decisions on the best methods for delivering the program the budgetary requirements program location identification of the participating institutions the degrees to be offered etc should be reached in timely fashion
The Special Regents Committee which consists of Marie Dodd chairperson John Henry Anderson Jr Joseph D Greene and John H Robinson III along with members of the Regents staff met June 19 with college and community leaders in the Middle Georgia area to discuss the need for an engineering program The committee also met with Warner Robins Air Force Base officials to receive a presentation on the bases need for employees with engineering degrees

Astrophysics Science Education Degrees To Be Offered
The Board op Regents at the June meeting approved the establishment of several degree programs many of them in the area of science education This area has become increasingly significant and the recently approved programs are designed to meet existing and future needs for science and technology professionals
Georgia State University
Beginning in the fall of 1984 Georgia State University will offer a PhD degree in astrophysics through the physics and astronomy departments
The new program will offer graduate opportunities in areas of experimental and theoretical astrophysics with opportunities for students to develop and use highly technical analytical tools and instrumentation
The areas of research include high resolution speckle interferometry which is a technique for observing taint objects such as minor planets and extragalactic objects
Existing resources and continued receipt of substantial outside funding will enable the university to offer the program with no additional funding
University of Georgia
A PhD degree in science education to be offered in the Department of Science Education at the University of Georgia received approval
The objective of the program is to prepare professionals who will have superior research and teaching skills and will be able to plan carry out and supervise research as well as teach graduate and undergraduate courses in science education
The University of Georgia currently offers an EdD degree in science education which prepares students as practitioners and includes science course work internships materials development evaluation and research synthesis The PhD program will prepare researchers and will include course work in science internships independent work in research design data analysis and instructional theory The PhD then is not an entirely new program but rather an alternative emphasis for students pursuing research expertise in science education
The only other such program in the state is at Georgia State University No additional funds will be necessary for the program which will be effective with the beginning of the 1984 fall quarter
The university was also authorized to offer a master of science technology degree effective fall quarter of 1984
In cooperation with the graduate programs in biochemistry
chemistry food science physics zoology and molecular and population genetics the program will train professionals for industrial and technological employment requiring sophisticated technical skills
The new program will formalize the training program tor professional technicians and provide it with appropriate academic status Possible courses of study include biotechnology chemistry veterinary science pharmacology physics and soil and plant analysis
Extensive use will be made of existing research facilities and funding will be required for a graduate coordinator graduate assistantships supplies maintenance of equipment and instruction for new courses The university will use existing funds to cover these expenses
Columbus College
Columbus College received authorization to offer an associate in science degree program in medical laboratory technology beginning in the 1984 fall quarter
The curriculum has been designed to provide an accredited program for the education and training of medical laboratory technicians for employment in clinical laboratories hospitals clinics or physicians offices The program can also be the first step toward a higher degree in medical technology
Adding the program will require minimal additional expense
Kennesaw College
Kennesaw College received authorization to offer the following programs in the fall of 1984
1Major in secondary education with teaching field in chemistry under the existing bachelor of science degree structureThis program is designed to prepare high school chemistry teachers and with the increased emphasis on laboratory science in the public schools it is expected that the program will have a positive impact on the high schools of northwest Georgia The program will supplement the existing bachelor of science in chemistry and will require no additional faculty members or courses

The System Summary
Complete Text of Skandalakis Resignation Announcement
On May 22 1984 John E Skandalakis announced his resignation as chairman of the Board of Regents The following is the text of Dr Skandalakis statement to the press
First let me say how sorry I am that my personal and confidential letter to the governor reached the press This was not my purpose It is not the case that 1 was seeking a second term for selfsatisfaction When the Board agreed in Chattanooga that I should serve for two years the philosophy behind that was for me to finish the job of the search committee for the new chancellor The other thought was that the chairman and vice chairman should stay at least two years to be able to do a better job Therefore you can understand my surprise when 1 learned that the governor was seeking the election of another regent as chairman
I have a profound respect for the Office of the Governor but such a move by the chief executive officer of our state not only surprised me but I considered his action to be an undue interference with the constitutional rights of the Board of Regents an autonomous constitutional body
As you all know the constitutionality of the Board was born after a hard delivery My oath to uphold the constitution of my state did not permit me this type of intrusion
My discussion with the governor was frank and to the point 1 requested the governor to permit a free election by the Board and when he refused my request 1 told him that with deep respect I considered his action to be a violation of the constitution
We have many problems in higher education The situation in higher education is more than grave and when I was elected unanimously chairman of the Board I thought that I would have an opportunity to help solve some of these problems Unfortunately for It months I spent much of my time and energy trying to protect the right of the Board to make its own decisions In my humble opinion the interference of the governor and his staff with the constitutional rights of the Board has impaired the functions of this noble organization
Therefore I have decided to resign as the chairman of the Board in protest of what 1 consider to be continuous violations of the Regents responsibilities
Today 1 sent the following letter to the vice chairman of the Board my mentor and friend Judge Sidney Smith
My dear Sidney Having in mind only education and the harmony and unity of the Board I hereby resign my position as chairman of the Board of Regents today
I hope and pray my dear friend that you will bring peace and harmony to the Board For the remaining three and onehalf years of my tenure as Regent 1 plan to help you or any other elected chairman to take the ship of education to the port of heaven I wish you success from the bottom of my heart Cordially yours
1 had a lot of dreams about my new job 1 was thinking about new programs new ideas new avenues and new horizons My state honored me with the highest educational job and 1 wanted my performance to be first class With a grateful heart I wanted to perform 1 hope that my resignation as chairman may serve to diminish the tensions which now exist in the Board The independence of the Board is paramount to me and must be preserved

The System Summary
Regents Test Program Subject of Presentation to Board
The RegentsTest was ahead of its time when it became a requirement for graduation from University System institutions in 1973 according to director of the Regents Testing Program Kathleen Burk
Dr Burk in a presentation on the Regents Testing Program given at the August meeting of the Board of Regents said This kind of testing is currently a nationwide trend However back in 1973 it was a rather unusual move
According to Dr Burk the program itself was instituted in 1972 to ensure that students receiving degrees from University System institutions possess literacy competence which is defined as certain minimum skills of reading and writing
The intent of the test is not to deny students diplomas but to ensure that they have these minimum skills by the time they receive their diplomas explained Dr Burk
The Regents Test recently became the subject of controversy when US Department of Education officials questioned the use of the Regents Test as a degree requirement Federal officials said RegentsTest remediation was inadequate at the Systems three traditionally black institutions TBIs where students fail the test in higher proportions than students at other University System institutions
That issue was settled in May when it was agreed that remediation programs at the three TBIs would be improved and would be more closely monitored
The Regents Test is divided into two sections the reading test and the essay test
The reading test consists of 10 short reading selections with 60 multiplechoice questions about the reading material The selections are taken from various sources including such publications as Newsweek and National Geographic local newspapers and other materials that have been judged to be readable and comprehendible by college students Students must correctly answer 70 percent of these questions which are designed to assess four major aspects of reading vocabulary literal comprehension information comprehension and analysis
The reading material for the test is chosen and approved by program staff members and various committees made up of faculty members throughout the System The multiplechoice questions are graded by machine
The essay test has received much more attention than the reading test because many more students have failed it over the years said Dr Burk
Students are given one hour to write an essay about one of the two topics provided The topics Dr Burk explained are very carefully chosen
We are not looking for subject knowledge we are looking for writing ability We have topics that all students could think of something to write about she continued
Potential topics are reviewed and revised by a testing subcommittee which considers a number of criteria including the avoidance of cultural and ethnic bias The main source of potential bias appears to be ruralurban according to Dr Burk
The essays are graded holistically rather than analytically and are scored by three different raters who come from institutions throughout the system and who do not know the identity of or the institution attended by the students whose essays are being graded
According to Dr Burk various procedures are used to monitor the scoring of the essays and her office produces statistics on rater reliability The most convincing evidence we have that the scoring doesnt have any major problems comes from the results of the appeals process she said Of a total of 10000 essays receiving failing grades last year 179 were submitted for further review in the appeals process and only 78 of those were eventually passed So the decision was reversed on 78 essays out of a total of 10000 which failed
About 35 percent of the students taking the Regents Test for the first time fail one or both parts and that figure has changed very little in recent years However Dr Burk said most students do pass within a year after their initial failure if theyve taken remediation and followed procedures
Dr Burk presented test results since the programs inception in 1972 as follows

PERSPECTIVE
Editor s note Dr Vernon Crawford chancellor of the University System of Georgia spoke August 17 at a retreat for the presidents of System institutions The following are excerpts from his remarks to the presidents
The direction of the University System during the next decade will undoubtedly be strongly influenced by the individual chosen to be the next chancellor by his or her priorities ability to marshal political backing and fiscal resources ability to sell his or her ideas to you and to the Regents and ability to convince the citizens of Georgia that the University System is one of the states most precious resources deserving of their pride and wholehearted support
I would like to discuss with you some of the challenges and opportunities which loom the largest on the University System horizon at least from my perspective
First and always there is the budget It is true that not all of the Systems problems can be solved with money but lack of money exacerbates all of them I am reminded of something which my father said to me I was just out of college with a masters degree had a job waiting which would pay the princely sum of 1800 per calendar year and was discussing the possibility of getting married immediately He was attempting to counsel me gently to wait until I had worked for a while and had put some money aside before taking on the responsibility of head of a household I remember saying to him Dad you seem to think that money guarantees happiness I also remember his reply No money does not guarantee happiness but the lack of it guarantees misery We have had our misery quota in the University System in recent years with budget cuts explosion of utility costs and the like but we have enjoyed some significant gains also
On the political front the new chancellor will be faced with the usual problems of special interest versus the good of the entire University System That is a very difficult position as I know very well and as he or she will soon find out
There is another battle on the horizon or even closer the outcome of which will be of particular interest to the chancellor but will almost certainly affect all of you directly I refer to the battle over salaries in the central office about which you have undoubtedly read There are many in the General Assembly who believe that no state agency head should earn a higher salary than the Governor Some of us currently do and within the University System there are many presidents vice presidents and distinguished faculty members in that category Those who believe this is a situation which should not exist have recently been joined by Attorney
General Mike Bowers a man incidentally for whom I have profound respect
A point which we have tried to make is that our central office should not be grouped with other agencies of the state in the salary comparisons We argue that we should be compared with those with whom we compete for the services of individuals namely with other colleges universities and university systems similar to ours None of our central office salaries are the highest in the University System for corresponding positions and the salaries in the System are not out of line with those in other state systems Can you imagine what effect the suggested maximum of 60000 per year would have on the chancellor search if it were to be imposed before the selection is made or on the individual chosen if it were imposed after the fact I was successful in keeping restrictions which were imposed on central office salaries last year and the year before from being passed down to the colleges and universities However 1 believe that ceilings on central office salaries will eventually and probably sooner than later compress all System salaries to the detriment of our competitive position
The desegregation question is likely to be with us for a long time As you know we are now in a critical phase of negotiations I wish to take this opportunity to thank all of you for what you have done and are doing to make them successful Some of you have done outstanding jobs in attracting new minority faculty All of you have tried hard and your efforts if properly documented will not go unnoticed in Washington They certainly do not go unnoticed in Atlanta
However I believe that no matter how well our most recent report is received by the Office for Civil Rights and no matter what success record we compile in the coming year the time will not come in your tenure in office and certainly not in mine when we will be able to say that we have solved the desegregation problem We are an Adams state As such we will be subject to periodic scrutiny by those who have an interest in identifying shortcomings in our efforts and results That coupled with the circ*mstance that our student bodies are very far from being as well integrated for reasons over which we have little control as the courts are likely to require places us in a position of continuing jeopardy We must do our best to meet our educational and societal obligations and to live with the heat
A recurring theme over the next several years will probably be the change of status of existing institutions and the creation of new ones At present the state is well served insofar as access is concerned by the number and distribution of institutions of the University System

The System Summary
On the Future of the System
Since the outlook for the next seven or eight years is one of a decline in the number of 18 to 22yearolds 1 consider it unlikely that new University System institutions will be created in that period The possibility that existing institutions for example DeKalb Community College should be added is greater It is possible although in my opinion unlikely that the Board of Regents will be given control of the states postsecondary vocational education schools
As you know the Regents have received a number of requests for change of status of existing institutions These requests were put on hold principally because of the economic conditions When the entire System was forced to undergo budget cuts it did not seem reasonable to contemplate expensive upgrading of a few individual institutions One of the changeofstatus requests has been taken off the table for a careful scrutiny It is too early to determine what the outcome will be in that case or in others that might be considered
I am relatively certain that the need for a new engineering school is going to intensify rather than diminish in the years ahead Two regions of the state Middle Georgia and Southeast Georgia are both bidding for attention in this regard The cost of creating one sound engineering program will be very large probably on the order of 10 million capital outlay startup and 15 million annual operating costs I hope the General Assembly is willing to invest that kind of additional money because I believe the state would be well served by an additional undergraduate engineering school My fear is that if the University System cannot meet that need Mercer University will agree to do so at state expense of course Why the state might prove morewilling to invest in a private institution than in its own public system of higher education is difficult to explain and would be beyond reasonable expectation if the example of the Mercer Medical School were not so fresh in our memory
A number of questions must be addressed in the next several years One of them concerns the missions of the individual institutions within the System It seems probable to me that if enrollments drop as the demographics suggest that they will there will be an increasing differentiation of mission No longer will it be possible for most of our institutions to be all things to all people Rather or so it seems to me our senior colleges in particular may be forced to cut down on the number of majors offered thus avoiding unnecessary and wasteful duplication of programs with insufficient enrollments to make them cost effective
Another question to be faced is the role of developmental studies Will it continue to be necessary
for the University System to offer a range of developmental studies in order to remediate weaknesses in the basic skills which so many of our entering students bring with them I suspect that the answer to that question will be yes but Yes we will continue to need developmental studies if for no other reason than that we will be attracting more and more older students adults in mid career or beyond who wish to gain more education Many of this clientele have been so long out of school that they need a halfway house to ease their reentry to the mainstream of academic life But the measures we have taken to raise our admission standards coupled with the college preparatory curriculum now in effect in our public schools should reduce the dependence of our traditionally aged freshmen on developmental studies in college The recent news that our fourth eighth and tenth graders are now testing above the national average is a source of hope to us all and even though the national average leaves something to be desired indicates that our colleagues in the public schools deserve our praise for a signal accomplishment
Many other challenges opportunities and questions will need to be addressed by the next chancellor and by you who will remain to labor in the vineyard with him or her but I shall take the time to discuss only two more They are the questions to which every serious educator must continually return for they are at the heart and they are the soul of everything we do The questions to which I refer are these What constitutes a quality education for the last 16 years of the 20th century and how can we ensure that we are providing that kind of education for our students
Let me make my conviction clear that education is a process not a result The best educated and the most ignorant among us are to be differentiated only as having

reached different points along a road which has no end I believe we can lay a legitimate claim to being educable and that we can truthfully say we are in the process of becoming educated but when are we educated Not in this life So in what follows when 1 describe individuals as being well educated I mean that they have been touched by and have responded positively to an educational process of high quality That process more likely than not but not necessarily had a strong formal component The welleducated self educated are few in number but they do exist
Welleducated individuals can communicate effectively in standard English They can speak intelligibly read with understanding and write with clarity and grace 1 mention this symptom of quality education first because 1 consider it to be most important Not only is the mastery of language the clearest sign of an educated person it is also the most valuable attribute in achieving success in almost any field of endeavor Success in virtually any field of human endeavor is strongly correlated with the ability to use the language which in this country is standard English effectively
Welleducated persons can earn a living That statement may appear heretical to some an abandonment of the lofty ideal that the purpose of education is to enable the recipient to make a life not a living But be honest now how many people have you known who although unable to earn a livelihood were conspicuously successful in making a rich and satisfying life
1 make no apology for taking the position that one of our legitimate goals as educators is to give our students knowledge which they can use to provide goods or services which others will be willing to pay for This knowledge may be vocational in nature or professional or it may be general There are and 1 believe there will continue to be jobs for liberal arts graduates who can communicate who can analyze who can view things in a broader context than the local or the immediate who can predict the likely outcome of various courses of action who can in short think Let us not forget our responsibility to our students to improve their opportunities for gainful employment
Welleducated individuals understand the nature of mathematical proof hnd can reason well enough mathematically to solve those problems that admit of a mathematical solution with which they are confronted They are well enough acquainted with the scientific method to know how it is used to increase our understanding of nature and its laws They understand how the joint application of mathematics and scientific knowledge by the engineer the medical researcher the agricultural scientist etc makes life more enjoyable for all of mankind
Those who are well educated possess an appreciation of the beauty of art music and literature which enriches and ennobles their lives
Welleducated people have been introduced to a
significant portion of the great ideas contained in the worlds literature They understand the crucial role of
those ideas in shaping our civilization and recognize their own responsibility to transmit them to the next generation Dr Edwin DeLattre president of Saint Johns College advanced the idea that a welleducated person is one who would understand how to refound his or her own civilization That definition has a disturbingly relevant ring in this age of proliferation of nuclear capabilities
Welleducated persons have the intellectual resources set in a framework of ethical and moral principles on which to base sound value judgments Harvards president Derek Bok writes that a university which refuses to take ethical decisions seriously violates its basic obligations to society Professor Charles Muscatine of Berkeley calls todays educational programs a marvelous convenience fora mediocre societyand states that educations key goal should be informed decision making that recognizes that there is a moral component to life
In summary I have defined welleducated persons as those who can communicate who can earn a living who have at least a working knowledge of mathematics and an understanding of the scientific method and its application who appreciate beauty who understand the values on which our civilization is based who serve as civilizations guardians and the transmitters of its values and who have the ability to make sound value judgments
I suspect and hope that if you were to construct your own definition it would overlap mine to some considerable extent
What must we do to ensure that we are graduating welleducated persons from our institutions
First we must hire faculty members who share our concern for highquality education and who are willing to work hard to produce welleducated graduates We must be sure that an environment exists at our institutions in which good teaching and learning can occur We should be alert to guard the rights of our faculty and students to demand performance to reward it when it occurs and to terminate appointments when it does not
We should encourage innovative approaches to education and inculcate the idea that while a professor talking to listening students is one way to teach and maybe even a good way it is not the only way It may not always be the best way The difference between a rut and a grave is only the depth
We should examine our curricula periodically to determine that they contain the elements to produce welleducated graduates that they respond to the needs of the students and the higher expectations of society
A healthy enjoyable environment for students with appropriate extracurricular programs is a necessity particularly at the domiciliary institutions
Think about these things and treasure them in your hearts You will be better people for it and the University System of Georgia will profit

The System Summary
Institute Teaching Faculty How To Teach Computer Science
Ah the sounds of summer Crickets chirping birds singing frogs croaking at a nearby pond While most of us are enjoying these sounds 40 of our colleagues are enjoying the sounds of roll out time for class manyour terminals PASCAL COBOL
The people hearing these sounds are participants in the University System Computer Science Institute being held this summer on the campus of Kennesaw College
During this twoweek and five subsequent weekends program this select group of 40 will endure rigors that may make them feel they are at Parris Island rather than a computer camp
The institute gives an intensive six hours of classroom and three hours of laboratory work a day program covering Principles of Computer Programming I and II and Introduction to File Processing
The institute was developed in response to the severe shortage of faculty in the University System qualified to teach courses in computer science Those participating in the institute are noncomputer science faculty who will return to their respective campuses and be able to teach the first three quarters of computerscience courses and to free computerscience specialists to teach more advanced courses by the spring quarter 1985
According to Morris Roberts professor of computer information systems at Georgia State University and director of the institute this was one viable way to meet the computer needs without having to hire new faculty Hiring new faculty has been difficult and future prospects are not good We are giving them in two weeks two quarters of information and a graduate course philosophy The idea was one of many presented by the Academic Committee on Computer Science and Systems Analysis of the University System Advisory Council
The demographics of those attending this years institute are interesting They represent 20 colleges 12 hold a PhD and six have EdD degrees Although 25 teach in the area of math or science other fields represented include music physical education vocational education and testing
Participants were selected by their president and the choices were then reviewed by the central office said Ray Cleere vice chancellor for academic affairs If we are succesful this year we plan to offer advanced courses as well as another basic course next year
Why did these teachers decide to participate in the computer institute With my involvement in testing I had to learn about computers said Dr Curtis Spikes of Fort Valley State College This was an opportunity to get some structure I enjoy getting the information in an intensified manner such as this I hope to be teaching courses in computer science as soon as possible and I would like to get into the computer science field Fort Valley is already working at making the college
Morris Roberts instructs Dorothy Murchison of Savannah State College
community computer literate That means faculty staff and students I believe that you can learn anything you want he continued so I have decided this is what I want to know Learning the systems writing the programs and learning the techniques to take this information back to the classroom are just what I need
I felt like it was a good opportunity to learn some things that I didnt know about computers said Brenda Carter of Georgia Southern College I had the bare amount of computer courses while working toward my degrees but I wanted to increase my computer knowledge The timing of the institute between quarters was just right
Apprehension about being able to learn the material was echoed by many of the participants including Ann Townes of Albany Junior and Elsie Washington of Floyd Junior College I am apprehensive because I know it is going to be a lot of work said Ms Washington I like this program because you are learning something more structured with PASCAL Up until 1971 I had never even seen a computer I had access to one for a year and taught myself BASIC Floyd Junior College didnt have computers until two years ago I want to learn so I intend to stay with this until I do
Many of the participants had taught themselves how to

The System Summary
Budget Increases Approved for 3 Construction Projects
The Board of Regents approved a variety of building arrangements including budget increases for three construction projects at the July meeting
Georgia Institute of Technology
The awarding of a construction contract and an increase in the project budget for the Microelectronics Laboratory at the Georgia Institute of Technology was authorized by the Board
The project had been authorized at the Boards June 1984 meeting with a budget of 750000 However all construction bids received were higher than the established budget The necessary increase of 138000 brings the new project budget to 880000 and the construction budget to 670000
The construction contract was awarded to RD Constructors Inc of Smyrna
The construction budget for the renovation of the A French Building at Georgia Tech was increased from 1000000 to 1250000 The Board also authorized the awarding of a construction contract to the Smyrna firm of CarterDeGolian Inc for the project in the amount of 1069208
The Board originally authorized the project with a construction budget of 1000000 in October 1983 but the lowest bid received exceeded that amount The additional money for the project will be provided by the Clark Howell Trust Fund which provided the initial funding
Georgia State University
The Board authorized a supplemental lease agreement with the United States of America General Services Administration for the use of 2455 square feet of office space by the US Corps of Engineers The office space which is located in the Title Building at 30 Pryor Street
SW in Atlanta was declared no longer advantageously useful to Georgia State University or to other units of the University System
At the April 1983 meeting the Board had approved the leasing of 42865 square feet of space in the Title Building for use by the Corps of Engineers This additional space gives the corps a total of 45320 square feet of space on the second floor of the building for an annual rental amount of 51348295
The Board authorized the design of a towertransmitter facility for Georgia State Universitys student radio station WRASFM with a project budget of 457000
J he Board also appointed the Atlanta firm of Richard Rothman and Associates Ltd to prepare plans and specifications for the project An architectural contract with a construction cost not to exceed 415000 was also approved
Georgia State will use student activity funds to fund the project which has already been approved by the
FAA The FCC has issued a construction permit for the facility
University of Georgia
The Board authorized the execution of a nonexclusive easem*nt with The Clifford Corporation for the construction of a road drainage easem*nts and lagoon maintenance to serve the Roebling Estate property located on the northeastern end of Skidaway Island For this purpose the Board declared 594 acres of land at the Skidaway Institute of Oceanography no longer advantageously useful to the University System
In 1967 when the Roebling family donated the land on which the institute is now located they entered into an agreement that allows them a perpetual right of ingress and egress across the portion of Skidaway Island which they donated for the institute
The easem*nt approved by the Board in August allows the construction of a road that will provide access to the portion of the island retained by the Roeblings
A nonexclusive easem*nt approved by the Board will provide for the relocation of the Georgia Natural Gas Companys district regulator station This action was necessary because of the recent relocation of East Broad Street under an exchange of property between the Regents and the city of Athens
The 10 x 35 plot of land on which the regulator station will be relocated is near the Chicopee Mill Complex on the campus of the University of Georgia
The Regents voted to accept title to a 0595 acre strip of land which will be used for parking The land will be given to the Board by the city of Athens with the provision that the university will absorb all costs involved with the transfer of title
Georgia College
The Regents voted to accept fee simple title to the property known as Blackbridge Hall from the Georgia College Alumni Association Inc The property at 111 S Clark Street in Milledgeville is directly across the street from the former governors mansion
Carol Black of Atlanta an alumna of Georgia College donated the purchase price of 79000 to the Alumni Association which now wishes to donate the property to the Regents for the use of Georgia College
Southern Technical Institute
An increase in the project budget for the library addition to be constructed at the Southern Technical Institute was approved by the Board The new project budget is 3500000 increased from 1875000

use a computer but needed the formal training in order to teach others That includes George Donaldson of Emanuel County Junior College who also learned on his own We already use computers in our chemistry labs which is my area of teaching Its important that the kids who take my classes are familiar with computers Many times along with teaching chemistry 1 also have to teach them how to use a computer I needed the formal training so this institute provides me an opportunity to get it without having to take a class during the school year
Kennesaw College was chosen to host the institute on the basis of its excellent facilities and willingness to accommodate the group during the length of the institute Southern Technical Institute is providing the dormitory space for the participants during the initial twoweek period Fees for the participants were provided by their institutions and covered materials and instructors According to Dr Roberts this years program has been so well received that we already have a waiting list for next summer
Along with Dr Roberts members of the institute staff are Roger Lamprey associate professor of computer information systems at Georgia State University Merl King assistant professor of business administration and director of the Small Business Institute at Floyd Junior College Steve Scherer acting chairman of the math and computer systems department at Kennesaw College and Marcia Perry associate director of the Regents Testing Program who also serves as institute coordinator
Those participating in the computer institute include

Appropriation Continuedfrom Front Cover
In the category of Major Repairs Rehabilitation the request has been made for 12815000 According to the chancellor We are asking for a step increase this year Last year we got onequarter of one percent of the total 2359092000 budget This year I intend to ask for onehalf of one percent and that will add 6917270 to the major repairrehabilitation budget We dont have a priority list since this amount is used not as a proactive fund but rather as a reactive fund to shore up disasters
The appropriate request will ask that the governor phase in the remaining onehalf percent in the 1987 fiscal year If this is done said Dr Crawford the governor will be able to say that he funded the formula in full during his first term of office
The 1985 fiscal year budget included the amount of i 5482906 for indirect cost recoveries The Regents will be asking for an increase of 2750000 to fund this item at 66 percent The original intent of the indirect cost recoveries was to allow institutions generating income from research grants and contracts to retain 85 percent of the indirect cost recoveries overhead income earned on those projects The chancellor stated last year this will j have a positive incentive to offer our institutions to be active in research
The amount of 1817500 has been requested for desegregation programs We have received permission for additional flexibility in the use of this money at the three traditionally black institutions stated Dr Crawford
The budget request will also include 96726472 for capital outlay Last year we asked for 102 million in capital outlay Ninetysix million was for building projects 3 million for the desegregation commitments and 3 million for the renovation of Eugene Talmadge Memorial Hospital said Dr Crawford The 3 million for campus enhancement will again be requested and is included in the total figure
We would be happy to get 40 million to cover the x first 13 projects on our priority list continued Dr Crawford This includes four projects that have been committed as part of the desegregation plan
Additional funds for asbestos abatement at System institutions will also be included in the budget request
The chancellor also requested the amount of approximately 10 million to be used for employee insurance costs including social security teachers k retirement group health group life and workers compensation increasesI

in Desegregation Efforts
A PUBLICATION OF THE UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA
Georgia Makes Progress
Substantial progress has been made toward the goals of the 1978 Plan for the Further Desegregation of the University System it was announced at a September 18 press conference Gov Joe Frank Harris and Harry M Singleton assistant secretary for civil rights in the United States Department of Education made the announcement and reported on recent developments related to the plan
According to University System Chancellor Vernon Crawford the announcement means that the University System is relieved of the immediate threat of punitive action by the Office for Civil Rights
On April 2 1984 Gov Harris was advised that the Regional Office for Civil Rights and the US Department of Education had determined that Georgia had not made substantial progress toward achieving the goals of the Plan and that formal Title VI enforcement proceedings cutting off federal funding would begin no later than September 15 1984 if substantial progress had not been made by that time
I he decision that the state has made progress is based on in Mr Singletons words vigorous implementation of activities since April 1984
The following highlights of the activities undertaken by Georgia to achieve the plans goals were listed by Mr Singleton
implementing measures to provide increased remediation for students at the three traditionally black institutions TBIs who fail the Regents Test

Language Research Opens Dooifommunication
By Michael Richter Information Specialist at GSU
Teppie is now 22 YEARS OLD She was born with severe brain damage and has spent most of her life in an institution confined to a wheelchair unable to speak or clearly communicate many of her needs
Over the past two years a lot about her life has changed In a research project being conducted at Georgia State Universitys Language Research Center she is learning to communicate with a computerbased language that uses geometric symbols called lexigrams
The project coordinated with the Developmental Regional Center of the Georgia Regional Hospital in Atlanta and headed by GSU research associate and speechlanguage pathologist Dr Mary Ann Romski currently involves Teppie and two other young women Debbie 21 and Sandra 22 who are also severely retarded So far Teppie and Sandra have mastered the use of 20 wordlexigrams and Debbie 35 wordlexigrams
Teppie whose motorspeech mechanism has been impaired can utter but a few words understandable only to her instructors She comprehends little vocal speech Debbie has cerebral palsy and her speech is unintelligible Sandra does not comprehend or produce any spoken language Previous attempts to teach them to communicate orally with other symbolbased systems and with sign language have failed
Now they can speak with lexigrams
During a recent session Teppie performed basic tasks through the computer keyboard requesting food and other objects from a tray With obvious delight she asked for one of her favorite objects money The wordlexigram lit up as she pressed the appropriate key A synthesized voice a relatively new addition to the system simultaneously pronounced the name of the object Her instructor then acknowledged the request by pressing yes and money Teppie was then given coins from the tray
Teppie earns money Romski said She can then take it to the store and buy items with it We hope that it will become a functional tool in her environment
Language is what makes us uniquely human It affects learning social skills and independence Hopefully we can
Teppie performs request tasks at the keyboard with teacher Rose Sevcik

The numerous cultural scholarly and social events and special projects which are part of the University of Georgias bicentennial observances are focusing attention on a university with more to celebrate than just a 200th birthday
We celebrate the founding of the first state university in the United States of America University President Fred C Davison wrote in a recent column That is an unqualified and indisputable distinction that belongs to the University of Georgia alone
the University of Georgia is a national monument and its bicentennial a cause for national celebration President Fred Davison
President Davison continued Every citizen of Georgia and every person who has any relationship with the university should take enormous pride in that fact
As Americas oldest chartered state university the University of Georgia is a national monument and its bicentennial a cause for national celebration The contributions to our personal lives and national strength the countless leaders and contributing citizens educated by all state universities are endless in number And it began in Georgia
No other country has a comparable system of institutions created and supported by the people for the benefit of all citizens The American plan for support of its public universities was formalized in the 1860s when Congress passed the Morrill Act granting federal land to each state to support public institutions This concept of landgrant institutions was born in Georgia in 1784 when our state legislature designated 40000 acres of land to endow a university
One year later meeting in Savannah on January 271785 the General Assembly approved the charter of the University of Georgia a bold act by visionaries who knew that formal education was the key to unlock the new states future
And so Georgia created the first state university and the lirst landgrant institution educational inventions that spread
The University of Georgias bicentennial exhibition The Rising Hope of Our Land The University of Georgia 17851985 includes photographs and objects depicting the universitys history
across the land and became the foundation on which the greatest nation in the history of the world was built
President Davison has described the why of the celebration The what is a group of events and special projects planned to involve people from all over Georgia
A special flag was raised June 9 at the end of the universitys graduation exercises to signal the start of the 16month Bicentennial Celebration On October 1 more than 8000 people attended the Bicentennial Convocation This stately event was made more notable by the presence of Vice President George Bush as principal speaker and the world premiere of Symphonic Suite an orchestral composition written especially for the bicentennial by Karel Husa a

GEORGIA TECH CELEBRATES
100 YEARS
Designing Tomorrow Today
In 1985 the Georgia Institute of Technology observes its centennial highlighting its leadership in education research and service with the theme Designing Tomorrow Today The centennial celebration events which began this fall promise something fun and informative for everyone
To launch the centennial Georgia Tech is hosting an internationally acclaimed exhibition of ancient Chinese science technology and art at Atlantas new High Museum
China 7000 Years of Discovery opens Nov 191984 and
will run through Feb 24 1985 Atlanta is the last American stop of this spectacular show which has only been displayed in two other US cities Chicago and Seattle
The Chinese technology exhibit which is expected to draw 400000 visitors in Atlanta is said to surpass the Treasures of Tutankhamun King Tut exhibit that toured the United States several years ago While the King Tut exhibit had 55 items the Chinese technology exhibition includes more than 300 objects and artifacts such as early compasses an ancient bamboo flame thrower seventhcentury paper a modern Chinese typewriter with its 2500 characters a model of a centuriesold calendar tower and a lifesized copper figure used for acupuncture practice
Exhibit features ancient Chinese discoveries
Artifacts on display will highlight 13 different disciplines magnetism and exploration gunpowder paper making printing astronomy mechanics bronze casting medicine ceramics silk embroidery silk weaving architecture and traditional Chinese handicrafts The exhibition also will be highlighted by 14 visiting Chinese artisans demonstrating skills and crafts such as silk weaving doublesided embroidery paper making and wood block printing All of these discoveries and achievements in China occurred thousands of years ago and often centuries before similar discoveries were made in the Western world
China 7000 Years of Discovery is a fascinating learning experience for the entire family as just a sampling of the artifacts indicates For example visitors will discover that a bronze urn embellished with dragons and toads and outfitted with a pendulum was actually the world s first seismograph Other displays will illustrate how the ancient Chinese used acupuncture and herbal medicine both of which are common weapons against illness and pain in China today The mysteries of doublesided embroidery also will be unraveled as a skilled needle worker stitches different designs onto opposite sides of a transparent gauze In addition visitors will learn some of the secrets of building earthquaketolerant structures as developed in China centuries ago

DO YOU DRINK TEA COFFEE OR ALCOHOL Are you happy
hat is your marital status How is your sex life
Tn6SNreUSt a feW cIuestions yu may ask the patient on Dr Max Millers computerassisted instruction program tor a patient management simulation
Miller professor in the Department of Family Medicine and associate professor in Educational Research and Develpint lsone of a growing number of faculty members at the Medical College of Georgia who are pioneering the use of the computer as a professor who can drill prompt and
ead the student into making the most correct diagnosis of the patient
The benefit of interacting with a patient via a computer has to be experienced to be believed The scenario opens with a description of the patient of whom the student will be asked to make a diagnosis
Mr P D is a 58yearold white male who over the last six months has been slowing down He complains that he seems to be weak all the time and that he has noted a loss of strength in and has considerable difficulty in using his left arm He also complains that his joints hurt in the mornings this alert active and cooperative person is well developed for his age and appears to be in generally good health
After obtaining his general history he drinks about four cups of coffee a day is fairly happy is married with three grown children and has a deteriorating sex life the student performs a general examination This examination provides information on such things as general appearance mental status posture and gait
Laboratory tests ordered are shown with prices included so that these future physicians are made aware of the monetary costs to the patient3
Aftei studying all available data on the patient the student enters the six possible causes for the patients symptoms Based on what students know they choose the one diagnosis which seems to be correct Correct diagnosis presumed Parkinsons disease
Why use computers for teaching purposes Why use computerassisted instruction
Because the computer adds an element of mystery to the earning situation says Miller And he says the computer can be designed to include clinical management simulations hich can solve many common training problems in medical education
h nfet PrefIent Problem is that students do not have the Benefit of observing diseases that take a long time to develop j as 3 result they have an inadequate understanding of the sease process They also may miss many important diseases due to random patient sampling and lose the benefit of aking clinical decisions With a good program the computer can remedy these problems
October 1984
Designing a good program from start to finish takes a lot of preplanning says Miller The instructor has to develop ideas and learning goals for the student With the help of a welldeveloped authoring system a pattern on which to build the esson and skillful assistance a program can be developed in a relatively short amount of time
To conceive of the idea of the lesson and to see it all come together that is thrilling says Miller
nfter defelPng several Patient management programs Miller has found that with appropriate preplanning he can 11rush a program in just 12 hours
From conception to birth in a day he exclaims
Miller has already developed computer simulations in such areas as family medicine pediatrics gynecology and geriatrics
Only 25 years ago we began the great adventure of using the computer as a teaching aid This piece of technology which can seem so complex and frightening is our hope for the future of education says Dr Richard E Pogue professor of Health Systems and Information Sciences and associate professor of family medicine
The computer is another step in the evolution of education which began with Socrates and continued with the invention of the printing press Richard Pogue
Pogue has worked in instructional computing for 10 years and has received numerous invitations to lecture and give workshops on the use of the computer in instruction He is nationally recognized for his work in authoring systems used by Max Miller and Lucille M Pogue and by the American College of Surgeons
In the past says Richard Pogue the ability to use the computer was limited to programmers who had the power pay and knowledge To use the computer we had to go through the high priest of computing No more
Today with the advent of the microcomputer an affordable and powerful computer is available to anyone who desires it Ihe microcomputer is in the hands of the user where it belongs he asserts
With computers we can truly become a community of scholars says Pogue We can conduct research and become involved in joint educational projects without ever meeting facetoface5
The computer he says is another step in the evolution of education which began with Socrates and continued with the invention of the printing press

PERSPECTIVE
EDITORS NOTE The following remarks are excerpts from a presentation given by Board of Regents Executive Secretary Henry G Neal at the Boards October 1921 workshop held on Sapelo Island
In a recent article by Gene Maeroff published in the Education Summer Survey of the New York Times dated August 19 1984 it was stated
The oncegenteel relations among institutions of higher education traditionally conducted in an ivorytower atmosphere of hushed voices have taken on the strident tones of a street brawl as competition tor students and funds has begun to supersede other concerns Battles over funding and student aid between officials of publicly and privately financed colleges in New York State and elsewhere have spilled over into the view of students donors and legislators as both sides have stepped up efforts to protect their separate interests And more confrontation is expected
In my judgment more confrontation in the University System is inevitable unless we can reach some understanding with the private sector as to the role scope and mission ot the institutions represented by both sides
One small facet of this confrontation recently surfaced in the University System The problem involved an offcampus external degree program proposed by one of our colleges which would have been in conflict with a similar program which had been offered for several years by an established private institution in the same community This territorial conflict and the questions it presented prompt the subject of my remarks this afternoon The Relationship Between the University System and Private Institutions ot Higher Education in Georgia
The delicate balance which has existed between the University System and private sectors in higher education for the past 52 years has been upset by overriding economic factors We have become adversaries with the private sector for the educational dollar For many private colleges it is a matter of survival for our institutions it is a matter ot mission and responsibility What is our charge our responsibility to the public and to our colleagues in the private sector who nurtured higher education long before the taxpayers agreed to shoulder the burden of educational opportunity for everyone
Some may question whether students needs are best served by public or private colleges both of which are vying for their attention I submit that the public generally and our legislators may view institutions of higher education from our flagships to our junior colleges and from small sectarian schools to large private universities as one educational system The public knows what we sometimes overlook that all parties profit from all the other parties and that all institutions of higher learning need one another Neither does the public concern itself with the academic distinctions between the public and private sectors so much as it does with the educational missions of colleges and universities generally
What then is the mission of the University System Our Policies do not speak to this question but the Statement of Plan adopted by the Board of Regents at its second meeting on January 2 1932 states the mission to be as follows
It is the conviction of the Board of Regents that the people of Georgia intended to ordain by the Act creating the Board that the twentysix institutions comprising the University System should no longer function as separate independent and unrelated entities competing with each other tor patronage and financial support
The manifest purpose of the Act creating the Board of Regents is to unify and coordinate the work of these institutions so that the educational program of each shall be integrated with that of every other institution and with the system as a whole The result aimed at is a correlated harmonious and symmetrical structure free from wasteful duplications but providing the maximum of educational opportunity to the students of the State In short the emphasis has been shifted from the interests of particular institutions to the interests of the State
While the traditions the welfare and the prestige of the several branches of the system will be an object ot care on the part of the Board all of their problems are to be finally resolved by the answer to the question What will best serve the educational interests of the State as a whole
With this as the paramount consideration the constant aim of this body will be to establish and maintain a system of higher education that will command the

On Public and Private Colleges
sympathy and support of our educational leaders and at the same time successfully meet our needs by offering the young men and women of Georgia the maximum of education
To accomplish this result the Regents will after a careful study take such steps that to them seem best to coordinate and unify these institutions so that they will be related in purpose and regulated in scope The only competition in which these schools will hereafter engage will be for preeminence in service and scholarship
Our mission has not really changed except that instead of public institutions competing with each other for patronage and financial support we now find ourselves competing with separate independent and unrelated private colleges for such support
Today practically all states provide some form of financial aid to private colleges or to the students who attend them
What about the missions of private colleges They come in a variety of orientations and a variety of missions They provide religious and ethnic identity as well as tradition and accessibility These private institutions have had a powerful educational impact on Georgia for well over a hundred years In my opinion the public and the students would be the losers if the private colleges were to disappear or to be materially weakened In Georgia such old and well established institutions as Wesleyan LaGrange Brenau Tift Berry Morehouse Spellman Mercer Emory and many others have been a bulwark for their system and ours against interference by politicians and others Formerly most of them offered oncampus degree programs only and did not aggressively compete with our institutions Now however they offer a variety f oncampus and offcampus degree programs which often duplicate programs offered by our institutions in the same area of the state
Some of the better students who formerly attended prestigious private colleges now enroll in public institutions This
has increased the sense of competition Lower tuition strong scholastic standards and multiple degree programs at public institutions are the primary attraction On an average tuition today is three to five times higher at private institutions and students who are admitted to these colleges often enroll in state supported schools when they discover the difference in tuition According to the College Board the average annual tuition at fouryear public colleges is about 1100 while at similar private institutions which are supported mainly by tuition and gifts it is approximately 5000
What about the division of enrollment Nationwide 30 years ago private and public institutions enrolled about an equal number of students Today approximately 80 percent are in public colleges and universities The percentages are about the same in Georgia In 1983 there were roughly
36000students or about 21 percent of the total enrolled in 35 private colleges and special purpose institutions all but three of which are located north of Macon At least 17300 of these students were Georgia residents and the institutions in which they were enrolled received 725 per student this year or a total of 10567000 from the state Almost 88 million has been spent on these tuition grants in the last 12 years Our headcount enrollment in the System last year was about
138000students for which we received state appropriations in excess of 578000000 Some legislators contend that it makes better sense to pay the 725 tuition grant to private schools than to pay the 5200 a year which the state appropriates for the average public college student
Today practically all states provide some form of financial aid to private colleges or to the students who attend them

Tuition grant programs exist in 10 of the 14 southern states monitored by the Southern Regional Education Board The amount of such aid is increasing as legislators respond to political pressures Direct aid by states to private institutions is provided in a numberot different ways unrestricted gifts to specific institutions capitation grants subsidies for special programs eg medical andor nursing disadvantaged students and contracts with private colleges for educational services or for the education of state residents
In 1978 the Georgia General Assembly created the Private College and Universities Facilities Authority to deal with the financing of private notforprofit institutions ot higher learning The authority is not a state department or agency but rather an instrument of purely public charity performing an essentially governmental function being a distinct corporate entity It provides assistance by issuing revenue bonds and lending the proceeds from the bonds under loan agreements with the institutions However the credit of the state is not pledged under this process The total amount ot such assistance provided to date has been 135 million
The American Association of State Colleges and Universities has urged that private colleges be required to account for all public funds received that such institutions should be subject to commonly accepted governance and academic standards
The financial aid referred to above has been given despite constitutional prohibitions against direct appropriation of tax funds to private or sectarian colleges The American Association of State Colleges and Universities has urged that private colleges be required to account for all public funds received that such institutions should be subject to commonly accepted governance and academic standards I agree and I believe that our legislature may be moving in that direction
Last April the Georgia Legislative Educational Research Council approved a research project to study the Georgia Tuition Equalization Grant Program offcampus extension programs and program approval for private degreegranting institutions Our legislators have expressed concerns about these programs their current operation and future implications for higher education The purpose of this study is to enable the General Assembly to make sound decisions relative to funding new programs and enrollment tiends
The study material states that private colleges compete for students with public colleges by establishing offcampus private school programs within close proximity to public college campuses This is true and to say the least it has not strengthened our relationship with the private institutions
This competition for funds has become especially keen in our legislature Twentyfour of the private colleges have banded themselves together in an association known as the Association of Private Colleges and Universities in Georgia Among the stated purposes of the association is to solicit legislation important to the welfare of Georgias private colleges and universities
In the past our relationship with the private institutions in Georgia has been good and mutually supportive
In the past our relationship with the private institutions in Georgia has been good and mutually supportive In 1972 we did not oppose the inauguration of the tuition grant program which provided grants of 400 per student to freshman and sophom*ore students only Nor have we in recent years to my knowledge at least expressed our collective opposition to annual increases in the amount of the grants and an extension of the program to all students including graduate students Likewise I know of no instance where private interests have openly opposed our budget request
This apparently has not been the case however in other states such as New York where the two sides have fought openly and bitterly over the direction of public policy for higher education And the battle is still raging I am advised that they schedule meetings but no one comes The principal issue is the tuition gap between the public and private sector In Ohio state university presidents are upset over a bill similar to our grant program which passed last year giving each private college student who is a resident ot Ohio a tuition grant of 500 regardless of need It was enacted over the strong objection of public institutions
In recent years we have voiced our concerns without much success however with regard to large state appropriations six million dollars last year to two private medical schools Mercer and Morehouse In addition student capitation grants to these institutions and Emory last year amounted to 2601000 This recent competition for public funds coupled with increased academic competition generated by external program duplication by both sides has caused a serious deterioration in our relationship with private institutions As the competition has intensified our colleges have begun to seek more aggressively donations from sources formerly left to the private domain

Tin System Summary
We must find solutions to these problems which are basic concerns of both sectors We must reopen our lines of communication and sit down with our counterparts in the private sector and as rational individuals discuss the issues as well as the needs of the areas served and develop operational guidelines for both sides based on sound educational principles Nobody likes to plan for an enrollment decline or even think about closing an institution but sensible planning may mean that we can avoid some of the tragedies that a civil war in higher education may produce
1 understand that last year Chancellor William Danforth of Washington University in St Louis private and the president of the University of Missouri public brought together 40 college and university presidents to try to head off bitter skirmishes caused by a failure of state aid to keep pace with inflation Chancellor Danforth said This is a longrange problem and we thought it would be good for people in both sectors to talk about how to serve our institutions and the state together
At stake ultimately is the survival of our uniquely American system of higher education that in the past has combined the vitality and accessibility of public schools with the excellence and experimentation of private schools
I respectfully submit that the good relationship between the University System and private institutions of higher education in Georgia which we have enjoyed in the past must not be allowed to degenerate into an unhealthy struggle for funds and students
The good relationship between the University System and private institutions must not be allowed to degenerate into an unhealthy struggle for funds and students
In Pennsylvania and California I am told there is little strife between the two sectors The Pennsylvania Association of Colleges and Universities has been lobbying the legislature on behalf of both public and private institutions for the past decade In the West in general and California in particular they have been able to generate bipartisan support for student assistance We might well profit from their experience
The Exxon Education Foundation hoping to develop a spirit of cooperation has given 50000 to the Association of Governing Boards a nationwide organization of college trustees to which we belong to explore solutions to these problems gripping higher education Since this group has members from both sectors it has a foot in each camp
We must reopen our lines of communication and sit down with our counterparts in the private sector and develop operational guidelines for both sides based on sound educational principles
President Frank Rhodes of Cornell University said recently that Our dual system forms an educational enterprise which is rightly the envy of the world Everyone agrees that there should be unity among leaders of higher education but the sad thing is that all too often weve been so busy protecting our turf that weve overlooked the fact that were a public service and fulfill a fundamental purpose for the onomic industrial and social health of the community nless we find ways to cooperate the danger is that the public is going to see us as just another political lobby
As Dr Timothy Healy President of Georgetown University speaking on this topic and paraphrasing the words of Dylan Thomas said recently It seems to me that together public and private large and small we are all in the business for the love of man and in the praise of God We d be damn fools if we ever forgot how these ends make us one

Computers Continued from Page 9
Says Pogue The computer is the greatest teaching tool
that man has yet invented
Pogue finds that many people both students and faculty would like to become involved in the computer revolution but dont know where to start
The best way to begin he says is to first decide that you will put aside the time to learn Buy your own computer and start using it The only way 1 could get a real sense ot the microcomputer was to sit down and use it Firsthand experience is ultimately the best
1 think its important to be futureoriented says Lucille Pogue nurse educator and coordinator for computer activities at Talmadge Memorial Hospital Role change should be seen in terms of challenge and accomplishment rather than as a threat to the status quo
One of the great advantages in using the computer as an instructional vehicle is that the computer can require active participation with the learner and can be highly individualized Lucille Pogue
As a staff development educator Lucille Pogue has been involved in computerassisted instruction in continuing education for the last four years Her department provides inservice and continuing education to approximately 500 licensed nursing employees at MCG s teaching hospital
She began her present project in 1980 when she was awarded a 9000 grant from the Apple Education Foundation to develop computer lessons on drug therapy tor nuises
One of the great advantages in using the computer as an instructional vehicle says Mrs Pogue is that the computer can require active participation with the learner and can be highly individualized
Computer instruction also provides selfpaced immediate feedback an important consideration in the continuing education inservice setting where new employees come with varying educational backgrounds and professional experiences
Mrs Pogue clearly enjoys her role as a pathfinder She is excited about presenting a session at the annual conference ot the American Nurses Association Council on Continuing Education in October 1984 and at the International Symposium on Nursing Uses of Computers and Information Sciences at Calgary in Alberta Canada in 1985
The computer is a great aid to teaching says Dr Abdulla M Abdulla associate professor of medicine He should know he has developed several programs which present the medical student with a variety of challenges
14
For example in one program the student is presented with this drama a 36yearold white man has come into the emergency room complaining of chest pains The student can ask the patient questions such as Do you smoke
The answer comes from a patient the user can actually see
and hear on a television screen
Lets see Ive been smoking two packs a day tor about
two years the patient says
The student can order a series of tests and get a report on the results If the student decides surgery is required he or she is shown a tape of an actual procedure
Abdulla began work on his teaching computer in 1979 using a tape recorder and slide projector Today the new computer uses a laser disc cheaper and technologically superior to the old system
Abdullas computerized instructional programs are many and varied The Georgia Heart Association has granted him 30000 to prepare a computer course in advanced cardiopulmonary resuscitation
And the Chicagobased journal Physicians and Computers has awarded him 12000 to develop computerized continuing medical education courses The 90000 circulation journal publishes an article describing each course Then interested readers mail in requests for a computer disc whic contains the program for use on a home computer Upon completion the student receives credit for the course
Computers says Abdulla should not be used to memorize facts but to use and apply facts
Abdulla also likes to get away from using multiplechoice queries in his Patient Management Programs Unfortunately adds Abdulla life doesnt give us multiplechoice
questions
Students need to learn to diagnose treat and supervise patients with various diseases and problems and this requires original thinking The teaching computer allows medical students to practice and apply their knowledge without harming a reallife patient if they make a mistake
Some people fear technology thinking its going to replace them The computer is merely meant to serve as an
aid to teaching
Intuitively says Abdulla I feel it is a fantastic way to
teach
MDs need to be open to new sources ot information says Dr Lloyd A Lewis professor of medical education and professor of educational research and development
One of his jobs is to encourage faculty to take advantage of the resources of computerassisted instruction on the MC campus
In addition to encouraging faculty members to be more aware of how computers could enhance their teaching Lewis is endeavoring to help medical students become aware of how computers can improve their practice A computer can assist the physician in conventional ways such as in billing an word processing and in more novel ways such as in making a tentative diagnosis of a patient s illness
Lewis teaches a computer course for those interested in computer applications in medicine The class covers such
The System Summary
topics as historical perspectives of the computer word processing and test editing biomedical research data base management medical instrumentation programming the computer clinical decision analysis medical and surgical information systems computerassisted instruction and artificial intelligence in medicine
Computers can do so much of the housekeeping work for teachers says Lewis Computers can keep grades easily and can be a great teaching aid if computerassisted instruction is used he tells MCG faculty members in his workshops
Because my job is to give educational support to students and educators I try to encourage them to see the computer as an adjunct to the more traditional methods of education
Many of our faculty members come from an era when computers werent used Therefore they need to be reassured that a computer can be a good servant not a bad master he adds
Lewis is enthusiastic about a new direction in medicine using artificial intelligence to make diagnoses The computer can actually synthesize data and come to a decision make a tentative diagnosis It is exciting
The computer cant replace the physician but it can make it easier to do a better job
Lloyd A Lewis
Already he says an experimental program has been developed that can provide consultative advice on diagnosis and therapy for infectious diseases with 80 percent accuracy Many nonspecialist physicians he observes may not have that good a record
Artificial intelligence can be particularly helpful for general primary care physicians who have to make diagnostic decisions about a large number of medical problems With the aid of the computer they will be able to do their job even better
The computer cant replace the physician but it can make it easier to do a better job says Lewis
Whats in the future for medicine and computers We already know that computers have enormous potential for sifting through complex banks of medical data and integrating the information contained within them This can be useful in such diverse areas as diagnosis and epidemiology High definition pattern recognition programs can also be set to screen blood samples seeking out malignant cells or other disruptive blood conditions
Diagnosis is a matter of identifying sets of symptoms matching them against known illnesses and ranking them in descending order of probability Once computers have been equipped with the appropriate data for matching the symp
toms on the tables of probabilities they will be capable ot speedier far more accurate diagnoses Computers will also be able to recommend the appropriate treatment for the case taking into account the fullest details of the patients previous medical history
In the future even the most powerful systems will occupy a small space computers will be portable and unobtrusive For example wristwatches may incorporate miniature medical computers which sample pulse blood pressure the constituents of sweat and other body secretions and when paired with a microfine probe even the contents of the bloodstream itself
Microprocessors could be implanted in critical areas of the body equipped with sensors to detect the first sign of malignant cells being generated They might even be able to destroy the cells as they appear and their tiny size would enable them to draw on the bodys own metabolic processes for their power
One thing is certain the Medical College of Georgia is now playing an important role in the unfolding drama of computers and medicine

achieve some measure of independence for these individuals
The concept which makes progress with Teppie possible was conceived in the early 1970s by Dr Duane M Rumbaugh His idea was to develop a computerbased language research and instructional system for research into the requisites of symbol and language learning with chimpanzees
Rumbaugh is chairman of GSUs psychology department affiliate scientist at Emory Universitys Yerkes Regional Primate Research Center and director of the Language Research Center which is operated cooperatively by GSU and the Yerkes center The majority of funding support for the Language Research Center is provided by a grant from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development
Rumbaughs work and that of his associates has demonstrated that although apes dont ordinarily learn language they can learn parts of it The conditions which foster their learning have in turn been found to foster language learning in some mentally retarded children who otherwise failed to learn it
The chimpanzee is a remarkable biological and psychological resource to gain a better understanding into the basic requisites to symbol acquisition semantics and language skills Rumbaugh said A normal child learns language so fast that it is difficult to get a finegrained analysis of what has happened The child learns a lot about language a long time before he becomes competent in speaking and is in no way a pure or naive subject Chimps come naive Their mothers dont talk and every bit of language they have learned has been the result of clever teaching and experimentation
The chimpanzee is a remarkable biological and psychological resource to gain a better understanding into the basic requisites to symbol acquisition semantics and language skills
Duane Rumbaugh
As originally designed the computermonitored system consisted of a computer keyboard on which each key represented a specific word Nine geometric shapes or stimulus elements were combined to create words for each key Used alone or projected in sequences combinations of two three or four the elements could generate some 255 Yerkish words With eight small projection screens above the board a sixword sentence could be produced with the first screen used for yes no please and a question mark The last screen was for a period which signaled the computer to record and evaluate the sentence
Initially to motivate the chimps to use the keyboard many of the first lexigrams developed represented foods
The first chimp involved in the project Lana soon learned a number of stock sentences that enabled her to obtain food drink or entertainment slides movies music etc from the machine without a human being present
To Rumbaugh and his colleagues including Dr E Sue SavageRumbaugh associate research scientist with the Yerkes Center Lana began moving into the domain of true language after she began using words in ways that were not originally intended No which at first meant simply it is not true that became a generalized term that Lana used as a command dont do that or a declarative statement there is none of what you say there is in the machine for vending
This languagelike behavior was also seen in her ability to compose novel sentences within a conversational context by drawing on stock sentences she already knew
What we really want to know is When apes use symbols in a manner that appears to be like the humans use of words do they know what they are saying Duane Rumbaugh
Other work in the field of apelanguage research also seemed to indicate that apes have the capacity for rudimentary language
Using American Sign Language psychologists Allen and Beatrice Gardner of the University of Nevada claimed in 1971 that they had taught a chimpanzee named Washoe to recognize and use signs for 132 different words In California David Premack using plastic chips taught 130 words and several phrases to a chimp named Sarah
But the Rumbaughs research had not concerned itself with the number of words signs or symbols an ape could leam but with the language acquisition process itself and the Lana Project had raised a number of questions Was Lanas languagelike behavior actual symbolic communication or simply an elaborate series of conditioned responses Could the cognitive process that allows a dynamic communication system to develop in children also be fostered in chimpanzees
For apes to use symbols as words might indicate competence for language but not necessarily Rumbaugh wrote What we really want to know is When apes use symbols in a manner that appears to be like the humans use of words do they know what they are saying Therein lies the crux of the issue
In attempting to answer these crucial questions research began in 1976 with two chimps named Sherman and Austin The eightyear project headed by SavageRumbaugh included a number of experiments designed to determine whether the chimps actually understood the symbolic rela
16
The System Summary

In a foodsharing exercise Austin watches intently to see what Sherman will request
tionship between the wordlexigram and the object to which it referred To do this it was not only necessary to have the chimps name or request objects but also to act on messages they received and be able to refer to objects that they could
not see
This is the essence of semantics the ability to refer to things not necessarily present the Rumbaughs wrote
After the chimps became familiar with various food names attempts were made to teach the pair names of objects that were not ingestible The experiments were only successful when the objects used in joint efforts were necessary in acquiring food It soon became clear that the function of a tool a sponge for soaking up liquid a key for opening locked containers or a stick used to dip yogurt or peanut butter from a long tube rather than its shape size color or texture was crucial in Shermans and Austins ability to discern the meaning of an object name
Thus keyness is the property of making doors openable and not the small brass oblong object SavageRumbaugh wrote Attempts to teach key by holding one up as an exemplar and encouraging by various means the chim
panzee to name it might go on for weeks or longer to no avail If however one links keyness to the operations of opening doors of consequence then the word is learned in a matter of hours
The most striking evidence that the symbols were being used representationally came in an experiment in which Sherman and Austin were able to separate a number of foods and tools into their respective generic categories
In the fivestage experiment the chimps were first given three foods and three tools which they learned to sort correctly into two bins Pictures of the objects then replaced the objects themselves The bins were then taken away and the chimps were asked to label the pictures using the two lexigrams representing the generic categories Finally the lexigrams for the foods and tools replaced the pictures
Working with objects they had not classified before Sherman and Austin almost errorlessly categorized lexigrams for a variety of objects under the categories represented by the

two lexigrams Throughout 17 trials only one error was made Sherman categorized a sponge as a food
Rumbaugh said the chimps probably understood the essence of generic classification before the tests were given
Either animals are able to do this or they are not he said We dont believe for a moment that one can shape up condition through a series of approximations that kind of understanding or symbolic process as one might shape up a motor response
The experiment convinced the Runtbaughs that our language data are not simple associations but are rather reflections of cognitions and understandings of relationships and it supports the contention that our methods are either generating or at a miminum are compatible with highlevel cognitive functions and that their application to languagedeficient mentally retarded children should foster intellectual functioning
Rumbaugh said the chimps grasp of a dynamic communication system is also illustrated in their apparent understanding of the value of that system If you turn off their keyboard they will use another method of communication
Through their work with Lana Sherman and Austin the Runtbaughs concluded that the ability to acquire language is not a genetic trait to be found in apes or humans but that it is mans high intelligence that allows him to agree on common symbols that can represent those things that make up his environment They also found that portions of language are not necessarily the sole property of hom*o sapiens Certain facets of language could be fostered in apes in varied levels of sophistication
This has been clearly illustrated in recent work Sue SavageRumbaugh has done with a young pygmy chimpanzee named Kanzi Just by watching people and apes use them Kanzi has spontaneously learned some 190 lexigrams And in contrast to Sherman and Austin who were at best able to learn three or four spoken English words within a limited context Kanzi can understand a large number of specific English words
In blind tests where the possibility of inadvertent cues from the instructor were avoided Kanzi was able to correctly identify specific objects using only the spoken word of the tutor
In many ways the pygmy chimp appears to be an exception to the common chimpanzee Rumbaugh said They

appear to be much more adroit in inferring and learning the meaning of symbols spontaneously that is without the arduous teaching we went through with Sherman and Austin
But no matter how much or how fast the apes learn the validation of the Rumbaughs work may lie ultimately not with chimps but with humans
Using the primate studies as a working model Mary Ann Romski and her colleagues have established a functional symbolic communication system through which eight severely retarded persons who previously had no means of communicating have acquired language skills Some have learned as many as 75 wordlexigrams
For severely retarded nonspeaking persons who have failed in other kinds of intervention programs I have never seen this kind of progress Mary Ann Romski
The methods developed in the primate project have been a good model Romski said Our languageintervention methods have evolved using the nonhuman primate models processes
Debbie Teppie and Sandra were first introduced to lexigrams through which they could make a request for food The symbol was then moved randomly about the board and two more irrelevant symbols were added This way they learned to scan the board for the proper lexigram and concentrate on the specific shape of the geometric symbol rather than its position
And although Romski said initial progress was slow the number of trials required to learn lexigrams has decreased over time
They learn how to learn and the quality of what they learn improves Romski said They have maintained a 90 percent retention rate For severely retarded nonspeaking persons who have failed in other kinds of intervention programs I have never seen this kind of progress
As their ability to communicate improved so did other skills
The acquisition of a rudimentary language system has not only allowed them to gain more control over their environment it has also positively affected their behavior
They are now able to coordinate vocalizations and gestures with lexigrams Romski said Teppie has learned to use her symbols to specify things This ability is critical to the communicative independence of the subject
The acquisition of a rudimentary language system has not only allowed them to gain more control over their environment it has also positively affected their behavior
Personnel at the Developmental Learning Center began to notice changes in the womens attitudes Teppies physical therapist said that she has become more positive about doing things and Debbie initiates more interaction than before Temper tantrums have decreased Instead of passively waiting to be acted upon the women are now taking part in their world
At first their attention span would only be about 15 minutes Romski said of the teaching sessions Now they want to stay all day
They are happier Rumbaugh said All of this we think is every bit as important as the communication skills And basically it all can be traced to the word and sentence skills they acquired

In the near future Romski and her colleagues will take the system to the Developmental Learning Center of Georgia Regional Hospital to see how it will fit into a daily living setting There direct care staff will be taught to use the system with Teppie Debbie Sandra and others Also under a cooperative agreement the system will be made available to nonspeaking severely retarded children in the Clayton County School System who will be taught at home and at school
Overall the nonhuman primate model will allow individuals who encounter difficulty communicating using speech a viable alternative communication system Such information Romski said will have a significant impact on future clinical speechlanguage services for severely retarded persons

Females Males Differ in Enrollment Student Aid
Women and Financial Aid is the subject of a policy brief which examines the differences between female and male students in enrollment and student aid The brief prepared by the American Council on Education explores such areas as contradictory policies between federal student aid programs and public welfare programs and policies differentially affecting independent and parttime students
Some highlights of the brief are
Enrollment Patterns
Enrollment of women has increased dramatically in the last decade
Almost 40 percent of women students are enrolled in twoyear institutions
Close to half of women students are enrolled part time
Substantial areas remain where women are underrepresented in higher education programs and institutions
Financial Circ*mstances
Among dependent students women freshmen report lower family incomes than males
Women are more likely to be classified as independent or financially selfsupporting
Financial Aid Participation
Women generally receive smaller grant awards
Women have lower average loan amounts than do men
Women are more likely than men to have Pell Grants a reflection on their lowerincome profile

Regents Select Propst To Serve as Chancellor
Dr H Dean Propst executive vice chancellor of the University System of Georgia has been elected by majority vote the eighth chancellor of the University System
He was chosen for the position by the Board of Regents of the University System at the November 14 meeting in Atlanta
Propst who will assume his duties on July 1 1985 will succeed Dr Vernon Crawford
Crawford is scheduled toH Dean Propst
retire on June 30 1985 after serving as chancellor for five years
The announcement of Propsts selection as the chief administrative officer of the University System and chief executive officer of the Board ended a nationwide search process begun in March when Crawford announced his intention to retire
Board of Regents Chairman Sidney O Smith said Propst has a record that shows the ability to prevail in the face of challenges Smith continued He is a committed individual with an understanding of the problems we face a depth of experience a grasp of the issues and a keenness of mind
Speaking of Propst and of the other final candidate University of Georgia President Fred C Davison Smith said that he two were able candidates both of whose credentials were outstanding
While serving as executive vice chancellor Propst directed a comprehensive statewide academic assessment developed a productivitymanagement review procedure for System institutions developed amendments to the 1978 desegregation plan and negotiated on behalf of the chancellor the segents and the Governor a settlement relating to the egents Test with the U S Department of Education and the regional Office for Civil Rights
Propst who was bom on February 7 1934 in Newton North Carolina received the MA degree and the PhD degree in American literature from Peabody College and the t A degree in English from Wake Forest College
Nrior to joining the staff of the Board of Regents Propst Dught at both the high school and college levels While at
Radford College from 196269 he was an assistant professor an associate professor and a professor of English and served as chairman of the Department of English
He then joined the faculty of Armstrong State College in 1969 as dean of the college and professor of English In 1976 he was named vice president and dean of faculty and professor of English Propst joined the Board of Regents staff in 1979 as vice chancellor for academic development He was named vice chancellor in 1981 and has served as executive vice chancellor since 1983
He has worked with the Governors Committee on PostSecondary Education and is currently a member of the Committee on Accreditation for the American Association of State Colleges and Universities
Propst is the author of several publications and articles dealing with American novelists and with higher education
Unafraid of Challenges Propst Says Following Announcement
Editors Note Dr H Dean Propst made the following remarks at the November 14 Board of Regents meeting where it was announced that he had been selected by the Regents as the next chancellor of the University System of Georgia
I am awed by but unafraid of the challenges that will confront public higher education in Georgia in the years ahead Clearly recognizing the enormity of the challenges involving great issues of equity access and excellence I know that the collective intelligence available within the University System can and will be mobilized to sustain and to improve the educational opportunities we offer the people of Georgia
The University System is fortunate to have the kind of leadership at the institutional level in the persons of its 33 presidents and the kind of dedication at the central office staff level that can guarantee great strides forward to attain common goals and objectives Those who work with me in my role as chancellor will soon discover that 1 can be toughminded when toughmindedness is necessary But they will also know that every decision I make will be undergirded by

the element of humaneness that must forever be a hallmark ot higher education
To succeed in the attainment of our goals and objectives we in the University System cannot stand alone The support of the states elected leaders the Governor and the members of the General Assembly is essential if we are to be successful That support has in the past been generous and will continue to be so if we effectively tell our story and keep the lines of communication free of artificial impediments We will need the support of and will need to be supportive of the efforts of our colleagues at the public elementary and secondary school levels Ours must be a working partnership designed to improve all levels of education in the state
We will need the support of the states agricultural business and industrial communities and will gain that support only if we effectively respond to their needs for education research and technical assistance But most of all we need the support of the people of Georgia for it is the people whom we serve ultimately Their lives are made better in direct proportion to our success in providing them with the intellectual and technical skills necessary for their personal and economic advancement
As chancellor I will work with the Board of Regents in a major effort to forge a working partnership involving all these constituencies and designed to create the kind ot understanding cooperation and mutual support that will make our University System the envy of all the other states
As I look around this historic board room I see the portraits of my predecessors who have served with distinction in the position I will fill My eyes are drawn particularly to the portrait of George L Simpson who was chancellor when I arrived in Georgia in 1969 We owe Chancellor Simpson a great debt for the legacy he left to us His vigor insight and vision served this state well during a time of explosive growth in public higher education and give us the base from which we operate today
I will never lose sight of the fact that it is the Board not the chancellor that has the constitutional responsibility to govern control and manage the University System of Georgia
I see too seated in this room Chancellor Vernon Crawford whose stewardship of the System has been marked by grace intellect wisdom and most important a singleminded quest for excellence These men have set a standard of outstanding leadership which insures their illustrious place in the history of this System
1 would like to say some personal words about President
Fred Davison of the University of Georgia First of all he is my friend a friendship I value highly His has been a remarkable record of leadership that has brought the university to the forefront among the nations comprehensive research institutions His advice and counsel along with that of so many others will be of great value to me and to the System as we strive to create the best of public higher education opportunities for those whom we serve
The greatness of this University System has its roots in this constitutional independence of decisionmaking by the Board
Let me say to the Board of Regents that 1 clearly understand that I serve as your arm It is your policies that I will implement You deserve my best advice and counsel and you will have it I will never lose sight of the fact that it is the Board not the chancellor that has the constitutional responsibility to govern control and manage the University System of Georgia
The greatness of this University System has its roots in this constitutional independence of decisionmaking by the Board This is the legacy of those in the past who understood that the locus of control must be vested in citizens who will make decisions that will best serve the educational interests of the state as a whole independently of outside influences You have placed great confidence in me My every act in the years ahead will be devoted to confirming the validity of that confidence
Finally I am proud to be a Georgian I am honored to have the opportunity to serve the state and its people in the position of chancellor of the University System This is of course a great day for me personally My obligation now is to insure that it is a great day for all those who have placed their trust in
me

The System Summary
Regents Endorse Provisional Admission Criteria
The Board of Regents at the November meeting endorsed provisional admission criteria for those students entering University System institutions who do not have the requirements specified in the new precollege curriculum which will go into effect in the fall of 1988
In February 1984 the Regents with the full support of the State Department of Education approved a precollege curriculum which all students enrolling in programs leading to a baccalaureate degree will be required to complete before gaining regular admission to any of Georgias public junior colleges senior colleges and universities
Thus far this change in college admission standards has had a tremendous impact on the high schools of the state said Dr Ray Cleere assistant vice chancellor for academic affairs We hope that we will dramatically improve access to higher education by clarifying our expectations of high school students
The requirements in the new curriculum are four credits of English three credits of social sciences three credits of mathematics three credits of science and two credits of foreign languages
At the time the new curriculum was approved guidelines lor allowing provisional admission for those students without the required credits were not yet developed
On the recommendation of the Administrative Committee on Academic Affairs and the Advisory Council the Board has now endorsed provisional admission criteria and the recommendation that the criteria become effective with the high school graduating class of spring 1988 and remain in effect through the high school graduating class of spring
The provisional admission guidelines endorsed by the Board are as follows
Institutions may maintain a provisional admission category for those students who do not meet the regular admission standards The following represents the minimum criteria for provisional admission though institutions may set higher standards
English Students graduating in the Spring of 1988 or later with less than the 4 required units of English would be required to take the Basic Skills Examination BSE in English and Reading Based upon the students score the student would 1 exempt Developmental Studies English andor Reading or 2 be placed in Developmental Studies English andor Reading
Mathematics Students graduating in the Spring of 1988 or later with less than the 3 required units of Mathematics would be required to take the BSE in Mathematics Based upon the students score the student would 1 exempt Developmental Studies Mathematics or 2 be placed in Developmental Studies Mathematics at the appropriate level
Social Studies Students graduating in the Spring of 1988 or later with less than 3 units of social science would be required to complete one additional fivehour or credit course chosen from the approved social science courses in Area III
Science Students graduating in the Spring of 1988 or later with less than 3 units of science would be required to take an additional fivehour for credit course in a laboratory science chosen from the approved laboratory sciences in Area II
Foreign Language Students graduating in the Spring of 1988 or later with less than 2 units of foreign language would be required to complete one additional fivehour for credit introductory foreign language course
Additional Provisions The following provisions apply to the Foreign Language Social Science and Science requirements These additional required courses represent 15 hours of coursework beyond the normal degree requirements The student must earn a C or better in each of these required courses Entering freshmen must take these required courses by the time they have earned 45 hours of credit Transfer students must take these courses immediately upon entering the System institution or as soon as possible thereafter The courses should be taken with the idea of expanding the students previous exposure to these disciplines
Application of These Provisions The requirements listed above apply to students transferring into any System institution unless the student has completed both the Freshman and Sophom*ore years These requirements also apply to students seeking to change from twoyear terminal degree programs to baccalaureate programs within System institutions

Total EFT Fall Quarter Enrollment Declined from Last Year
University System enrollment for the 1984 fall quarter declined in the two reported categories Total and Equivalent Fulltime EFT from the 1983 fall quarter
Total Enrollment
Total enrollment at the 33 institutions was 135141 in the 1984 fall quarter down 2602 students or 18 percent from the 1983 fall quarter enrollment of 137743 Total enrollment includes the number of students enrolled at the 33 institutions without regard for workloads
Seven institutions reported increases in Total enrollment ranging from 02 percent to 81 percent Twentyfive institutions reported declines of from 05 percent to 236 percent
The breakdown of Total enrollment by classification of institutions for the 1984 fall quarter with comparisons with the 1983 fall quarter is
Four universities 59874 in the 1984 fall quarter compared with 59853 students in the 1983 fall quarter
Fourteen senior colleges 52815 for the 1984 fall quarter down 11 percent from the 1983 fall quarter figure of 53405
Fifteen junior colleges 22452 students in the 1984 fall quarter down 83 percent from the 1983 fall quarter figure of 24485
Equivalent Fulltime Enrollment
EFT enrollment of 113085 students at the 33 universities and colleges for the 1984 fall quarter reflects a decrease of 2826 students 24 percent from the EFT enrollment ot 115911 for the 1983 fall quarter
EFT enrollment is computed by dividing the total number of quarter credit hours of all students enrolled by the number 15 which is the accepted quarterly workload for a lulltime student
Comparisons of Total and EFT enrollment for the fall quarters of 1983 and 1984 are included in the table below The total enrollment for the fall quarters of the past 10 years is illustrated in the graph on the opposite page

The System Summary
MRR Funds Allocated New Construction Project Approved
At the November meeting the Board of Regents authorized the allocation of 301000 of fiscal year 1985 major repairrehabilitation funds for projects at three institutions
Those projects are Albany State College 52000 for reroofing the infirmary and replacing a rooftop air conditioner Georgia Southwestern College 95000 for reroof
mg a dormitory complex and Kennesaw College
154000 for airconditioning the gymnasium
Other action related to University System facilities included
Georgia Institute of Technology
The construction of a new project was authorized for the Georgia Institute of Technology The project labeled construction of north central campus surface parking facility has a budget of 420000 and involves paving curb and gutter storm drainage and lighting for two new parking areas and the resurfacing of an existing parking area in the vicinity of Hemphill Avenue and Tenth Street on the Georgia Tech campus
The new parking facility will be close to and will serve the
new Advanced Technology Development Center and the new Scientific and Technical Research Foundation GSTRF Center now under construction at Tenth and Greenfield streets
Using institutional funds Georgia Tech will pay Stewart Brothers Inc of Doraville to construct the project The Board approved the awarding of a construction contract in the amount of 41852152 to Stewart Brothers Inc The GSTRF employed Robert and Company of Atlanta to design the parking facility

The System Summary
Albany Jr Savannah and Ft Valley Authorized To Discontinue Programs
Two INSTITUTIONS received approval from the Board of Regents in November to offer new degree programs while three institutions were authorized to discontinue degree programs
Columbus College
A major in special education under the existing specialist in education degree structure was approved for Columbus College effective with the 1985 winter quarter
The degree is designed as a 45quarterhour program and the courses are structured to meet Georgia T6 certification requirements and all national and regional accreditation standards Funding and other resources necessary for initiating the program are available at the institution
Columbus College also received authorization to offer teaching fields in mathematics science and biology under the existing specialist in education degree structure effective winter quarter of 1985
These concentrations are designed for secondary science and mathematics teachers curriculum specialists and other professionals already holding masters level certification The need for such programs in the area serviced by Columbus College has been indicated by survey data broadbased support for new educational experiences for mathematics and science teachers the lack of a similar program in the area and an available pool of qualified candidates
Fort Valley State College
Fort Valley State was authorized to discontinue six degree programs as a result of an institutional productivitymanagement review conducted at the college in September
Each of the programs suffered from low enrollment and in order to increase efficiency and productivity at the institution President Luther Burse requested that they be dropped
The programs to be discontinued as early as the 1985 winter quarter but not later than the 1986 fall quarter are bachelor of science with a major in fisheries biology bachelor of science with a major in wildlife conservation bachelor of science in agriculture with a major in agriculture general bachelor of science in education with the teaching eld of behavioral science psychology and sociology education bachelor of science in home economics with a major in home economics general and bachelor of arts with a major in historical administration
Georgia Southwestern College
Georgia Southwestern College was authorized to offer a major in reading under the existing specialist in education gree structure in the School of Education effective winter quarter of 1985
1 he program which is designed to prepare personnel for t aching and leadership roles in reading education will consist of 45 quarter hours of graduate work beyond the master of education degree and will enable teachers to meet state requirements for T6 certification
All funding and resources necessary for the program are available within the institution
Savannah State College
The discontinuation of six degree programs at Savannah State College was approved effective as early as winter quarter of 1985 but not later than fall quarter of 1986

PERSPECTIVE
EDITORS NOTE T F Davenport Jr chairman of the National Advisory Board at the Georgia Institute of Technology gave an address at the October 26 dinner hosted by Georgia Tech honoring past and present members of the Board of Regents Excerpts from his remarks are printed below
I believe that Georgia Tech and similar institutions are the cornerstone of Americas economic future That s a pretty strong statement but in a very real sense it is true Its true because Americas frontier is increasingly global International trade is where most future economic growth will occur and America must play a major part in it
If we are to capture our share of international markets we must capitalize on technology We must infuse our products and services with the highest quality and deliver them at affordable competitive prices to markets around the world Lets face it were not doing that as well as we once did
To regain our position we must educate a steady stream of men and women in technology its applications and the implications of that technology to tomorrow s public and private sectors
It is vital to Georgia and to the nation that Georgia Tech continue to provide such talent To do so Tech must remain on the cutting edge of technology That means not only staying abreast of current and emerging innovations in technology but also the more practical aspects of how to exploit that technology by effective implementation in all segments of industry and society And most of all it means conveying that knowledge and the enthusiasm and vision to exploit it to the young people enrolled in this institution
Certainly it is easy to state that Americas economic future depends on our success in improving our competitiveness in international trade But making it happen is going to be a difficult task involving us all And we have a long way to go
For example 20 years ago when todays Tech seniors were babies only 25 percent of U S products were subject to international competition Today its 75 percent
One consequence is that this year we will run up a foreign trade deficit of an estimated 120 billion This is an alltime record
The US Trade Commission reported last year a new and ominous pattern in USJapanese trade The top five US exports to Japan are com soy beans wheat cotton and coal relatively cheap commodity products The top five US imports from Japan are autos trucks video recorders motorcycles and oil well casings relatively high value hard goods that Japan produces economically by exploiting technology
The International Trade Commission points out that such a trade pattern suggests that the United States is an underdeveloped colonial country shipping raw commodities to the Mother Country and buying back the Mother Countrys finished goods
Sounds like 1774 not 1984
What lies ahead
In Gerald ONeills latest book The Technology Edge ONeill identifies six technologies as key to our economic future They are microengineering already a 100 billion industry and doubling every four years robotics not only doing routine work better but replicating themselves genetic reconstruction magnetic flight personal aircraft and largescale construction in space
Because the next generations future is going to be so very different from the past that we have known we must make certain that Georgia Tech for all its rich traditions becomes firmly linked to the future and not encrusted in its past
Clearly industry must get its technological house in order if we are to compete successfully in such global markets One prerequisite to doing so is vibrant institutions like Georgia Tech supplying a steady stream of technically educated globalthinking students chomping at the bit to show America and the world what America really can do if it sets its collective mind to the task
The facts show that Georgia Tech is doing an excellent job with the resources it has Over the past five years Tech has conferred technical degrees on more than 12000 students including nearly 8000 engineers Fortysix percent of the graduates went to work for Fortune 500 companies and more than 42 percent remained in Georgia An additional 29 percent settled in neighboring southeastern states More important the number of Techs engineering graduates continues to rise from 1225 in 1979 to 1824 in 1983
But will there be enough of them No We already have a shortage of engineers and other technical personnel
If present trends continue the situation will be worse before it gets better Per capita Japan has three times more engineers than the United States and while the number of US engineering graduates rose in the 1970s the number obtaining PhDs actually fell 30 percent
Why Graduates with bachelor of science degrees are so desperately needed that lucrative industry offers are winning out over an additional investment in education Even engineering faculties are hard hit by the lure of higher industrial salaries In 1980 over 10 percent of engineering faculty positions were unfilled
8
The System Summary
On Technology and the US Economy
The danger of eating our seed com is obvious Japan with half our population annually graduates onethird more engineers than we do
All of this sets up a vicious cycle as ONeill describes it
There are too few engineers As a result engineering salaries are forced so high that industry cant invest enough research and development in engineering new products
Because we havent sufficiently exploited computeraided design or robotics Japanese firms have gained an advantage in the rapid design of products that are effective attractive and elegant in operation as well as easy to produce and simple to modify for world markets As a result our products are less competitive in world markets We lose another export market Our economy takes another hit
That puts more pressure on profits and reduces taxes and there is even less money to be invested in universities to enable us to pull out of the downward spiral
To a degree its a matter of attitude and priority Perhaps ours is reflected in the joke popular a few years ago that when the federal government slapped emission and gasmileage requirements on the auto industry American car makers hired more lawyers and the Japanese hired more engineers Unfortunately there is more than a little truth in that humor
Fortunately Americas auto makers have reacted A recent New York Times article described General Motors Corps 52 million investment in a factory of the future which will operate via robots for eight hours under computer control leapfrogging plants in operation elsewhere particularly Japan
Because the next generations future is going to be so very different from the past that we have known we must make certain that Georgia Tech for all its rich traditions becomes irmly linked to the future and not encrusted in its past
Again there is ample evidence of the efforts of Techs faculty and administrative leaders to do so as we reflect on their focus on areas also identified by ONeill as key from
In education in technology and in world trade America has been napping but as that sleeping giant awakens and exercises its potential we can be optimistically assured of the future we all want fr those who come after us

microelectronics to bioengineering to computer science to applied research
If Tech is to continue to fulfill the needs of our nation it will need additional help and the time for extending such help couldnt be more propitious As Tech launches its second century of service to Georgia and the nation President Joseph Pettit sees Tech boldly accepting the challenge of exploiting emerging technology to win worldwide markets
How do we meet this challenge First we need to gain recognition of the problem and a commitment to joint action between industry and academia Next we need to educate the public to insure that all those who pay the taxes for higher education and their elected representatives focus clearly on two needs exploiting technology which is essential if we are to gain competitive advantage in worldwide markets and making the required investments in education which is a fundamental requirement if we are to prepare our future leaders to be able to do so effectively
In education in technology and in world trade America has been napping but as that sleeping giant awakens and exercises its potential we can be optimistically assured of the future we all want for those who come after us A future of peace a future of prosperity a future in which the quality of life reflects our basic values
I believe this is a pivotal time in the history of our nation and this institution If David Rockefeller was right when he said Necessity is the mother of invention but discontent is the father of progress then we need people who are not content to let America sleep
The only question that remains is this Who is going to awaken the giant As Erskine Love said last May If not we who If not now when

PERSPECTIVE
The December 1984 meeting of the Board of Regents was hosted by the Georgia Institute of Technology Georgia Tech President Joseph M Pettit spoke about a longrange planning project recently undertaken by Georgia Tech administrators Presenting information about the longrange planning process for their particular areas were Dr Henry Bourne vice president for academic affairs Dr William Fash dean of the College of Architecture and Dr William Sangster dean of the College of Engineering Excerpts from their remarks follow
Dr Joseph M Pettit president
We are in the midst of something called longrange planning or strategic planning which is kind of a buzzword in the corporate world
Its our centennial and were trying to do some forward thinking not just look back at 100 years but try to look forward at what we ought to be doing and where we ought to be going We did a management survey of what our people think about our needs our management needs and how to improve the way we do things We engaged in the study under the auspices of the Higher Education Management Institute which was at that time affiliated with the American Council on Education It was a program funded by the Exxon Education Foundation spending about 3 million converting corporate terminology and thinking into the academic world which is a different world
We divided the institute into work groups groups of managers reporting to other managers 1 had my own group with my vice presidents and certain others reporting to me We subjected ourselves to a very extensive questionnaire on what we thought was wrong what we thought should be improved
One interesting thing that came out of it was that even though I meet with my vice presidents every week they didnt have a very clear idea or so they said anonymously in the questionnaire of what their colleagues were thinking or planning or intending in their part of the institute And absent that how could any one of them know what the overall institute was supposed to be doing or where it was supposed to be going
There was the general perception by administrators around the campus that there wasnt any longrange plan or if there was they didnt know about it and they certainly hadnt had any part in it
So we were addressing all these needs at the same time
We set a horizon down the road two horizons in fact
for our needs The corporate horizon typically is five years the fiveyear plan is common parlance But five years is not a particularly good horizon for this kind of an academic institution working for a Board of Regents and in this kind of a state structure We picked two horizons one one or two years off which is related to what were going to be asking you the Regents for a year or so hence and then another one that is about 20 years down the road or around the year 2000
What we ask for in the budget the year after next has to be related to what our longrange thinking is and not just an assortment of bandaids which is Im afraid what it has been too much in the past
We have assembled the thinking of the vice presidents and within each vice presidency the planning process goes down one level and then down another level and then comes back up again By the time it gets back up well be ready for the budget cycle again And when the budget cycle comes around well ask what is needed by the vice presidents and the deans and how those needs relate to the longrange plan
Were going to give you a sample of that and how the longrange planning process looks in the academic area realizing that each of the other vice presidents will be doing the same kind of thing within his operation But since the academic area is sort of the center of the institution that seemed a good place to begin
Im very enthused about how were doing Its going to be slow it will be several years getting the cycle steady but weve made some progress already in what has been only a year to two years
Dr Henry Bourne vice president for academic affairs
As Dr Pettit pointed out this whole longrange planning process started with the presidents cabinet which normally consists of the vice presidents who report directly to him plus his support staff Each of these vice presidents and the support staff devised their longrange plans and then we spent many hours reconciling those plans and bringing them together so that they made up a coherent whole and in places where they overlapped had common goals and objectives
Those plans were reconciled over some period of time with input from all the other vice presidents Agreeing on a set of longrange plans involved the business vice president student affairs student relations and development and physical facilities all of course have to look at those longrange plans and then decide whether they can provide the proper financing support services buildings everything else that is required in order to fulfill the objectives of those plans

System Summary
On GA Techs Future
The longrange plans flow down to the four colleges management architecture sciences and liberal studies and engineering and in turn flow into the schools and departments underneath them Longrange plans begin to be developed at the school and department level then go back up to the deans
The deans with all that input modify their longrange plans which flow back up to the vice presidents And if we see that the sum total is ridiculous or not ambitious enough or too ambitious we can have a lot of dialogue and we can either change ours or convince them to change theirs That flow down and back up again goes on a yearly cycle and somewhere in that process we develop a budget that we submit to you the Regents and then the process starts all over again with a new set of internal and external parameters that cause those things to change
The academic affairs area can be used to illustrate how the process works We started out thinking about faculty and what we should be shooting for in immediate shortterm goals and what we should be shooting for in longterm goals
Georgia Tech if it is to maintain the expected caliber of student body is going to have to do some recruiting too Dr Henry Bourne
It was pretty clear in the presidents cabinet that we all felt that we had to greatly increase the number of faculty at Georgia Tech Weve had a large increase in the number of students but the faculty has not increased over the same period We want to have roughly one faculty member for every 16 undergraduates and one faculty member for every eight graduate students Georgia Tech should have somewhere around 850 to 860 faculty members So our longterm goal for the year 2000 maintaining enrollments roughly the same as they are now is to add 350 to 360 faculty members To compensate for the lack of fulltime teachers Georgia Tech is now using more graduate teaching assistants than should be used at an institution of its caliber
As for students we project around 11000 students roughly 8000 would be undergraduates and up to 3000 graduate students At Georgia Tfech we have always had a large enough applicant pool that we really didnt worry too much about doing any recruiting But the applicant pool is decreasing the number of 18yearolds around the country is decreasing and a lot of topnotch universities are busily
recruiting topnotch students Georgia Tech if it is to maintain the expected caliber of student body is going to have to do some recruiting too
Dr William Fash dean of the College of Architecture
We currently offer undergraduate programs in architecture building construction and industrial design professional masters programs in architecture and city planning and the doctoral degree in architecture and city planning We project that by the year 2000 we will begin to offer masters level work in industrial design and develop more work in the area of interior architecture
We hope to expand our concentration areas in development for architecture and city planning We have recently redeveloped the undergraduate curriculum in building construction Now it can link to a MS program in civil engineering We also hope to develop a center for the visual arts within the architecture program enabling us to do much more in the way of service course offerings for other Tech students who are not in the College of Architecture
We also hope to become more active in continuing education and videodelivered education and to expand our research activity through the establishment of research centers We now have two such centers the Center for Rehabilitation Technology and the Center for Architectural Conservation We want to develop a Center for Planning and Development and a Center for Media Technology
We also intend to be more active in student recruitment
We now have 655 students in the college and we project enrollment increases if our plans for expanded services degree programs and research are implemented Well see an increase in the proportion of graduate students
In the development of teaching faculty our intention is to increase the proportion of faculty qualified to teach at the doctoral level
With respect to sponsored research we are pioneering new ground by the year 2000 we ought to increase the amount of research activity from the present level of about 125 million per year to at least 2 million
Dr William Sangster dean of the College of Engineering
Georgia Tech was number two in the country in 198283 in number of engineering bachelors degrees awarded to women second to Purdue Georgia Tech was sixth in the country in masters degrees in engineering awarded to women

Continued from Previous Page
Georgia Tech was fifth in the nation in bachelors degrees in engineering awarded to blacks in 198283 and 14th in the nation in masters degrees in engineering awarded to blacks in 198283
Student enrollment in the college has grown tremendously over the past few years but has leveled off recently because we have forced it to level off our instructional faculty has not increased at the same rate
State funding has increased very nicely However it has not kept up with inflation as reflected in Consumer Price Index increases
Sponsored research programs for the college have increased so that during fiscal year 1982 Georgia Tech was third in the country in engineering research and development programs
Where do we go from here
This is the planning process for the College of Engineering
The average age of laboratory equipment in the college is 106 years which is pretty old for equipment in todays technology Dr William
Songster
Faculty
We re proposing to add 35 new faculty members a year for the next five years at least At 83000 per year for each faculty members salary travel expenses supplies and support personnel thats 2905000 per year We also want to add 25 adjunct faculty per year which would not require any of our funding The college also plans to add five technician secretarial support persons per year
Facilities
The average age of laboratory equipment in the college is
106years which is pretty old for equipment in todays technology A onetime investment of roughly 10 million will get the average age down to about six years Once we get the average age down we have to put in more money every year to keep it at that level
Well need more money for equipment as we acquire new faculty members Well also need office and laboratory space
Program development
We want to increase the use of computers and micro
electronics and develop a computerintegrated manufacturing systems CIMS program We also want to introduce one new technology every year into the academic program and we want to expand our efforts in artificial intelligence and develop a stronger focus on materialsrelated research and instruction
We also want to
Increase faculty involvement in sponsored research to an average of 13 of their time
Increase graduate enrollment by 100 students per year Operations
Increase student exposure to regular faculty
Utilize new instructional techniques
Share equipment and equipment maintenance
Coordinate college computing facilities
Develop an efficient management information system
Resource Development
Increase unrestricted funding
Develop industryfunded cooperative research
Expand the volume of sponsored research by 10 per year
Increase graduate student involvement with established projects
Outreach
Increase visibility
Increase involvement in extension education
Initiate advisory committees
Focus resources
