The System Summary
Regents Give Authorization For Adding Graduate Program
A new masters degree program at the University of Georgia was authorized by the Board of Regents at the February 1213 meeting
The redesignation of a degree major and of a department at Albany State College was also authorized by the Board at the same meeting
New Degree Program
The University of Georgia received approval to offer an interdisciplinary program leading to the Master of Applied Mathematical Science degree effective beginning in the 1980 summer quarter
This new program which according to University of Georgia President Fred C Davison has been under consideration at the University since the 197778 academic year was approved by the Graduate Council during the 1978 spring quarter the Regents were told through agenda material The program will be offered through three departments Statistics and Computer Science Mathematics Quantitative Business Analysis The curriculum will consist of courses already offered by these departments the Regents were also told
The agenda material also indicated
This terminal program will prepare students for professional employment in business government and industry in positions that require the application of statistical methods operations research systems analysis and applied mathematics
The program will be offered with three options operation researchdecision sciences applied mathematics computer science and statistics
Implementation of the program is expected to have a very positive effect on minority enrollment at the University with such enrollment potentially as high as 20 percent of total enrollment
Redesignation of Degree Major Department
Albany State College was given authorization to redesignate the major in secretarial science under the Bachelor of Science degree program to a major in office administration effective beginning on February 14 1980
Also authorization was given to redesignate the Department of Business Education and Secretarial Science to the Department of Business Education and Office Administration also effective beginning on February 14 1980
The secretarial science curriculum according to Albany State College President Charles L Hayes was specifically designed to prepare students to perform the various routine and specialized duties characteristically performed by secretarial personnel and it was very limited in scope the Regents were told through an agenda item The curriculum needed to be expanded to reflect newer concepts advances in office technology shifts in social attitudes and the need for highquality personnel in modern offices the agenda item indicated
The agenda item also indicated
Specifically the objectives of the major in office administration are as follows 1 to provide opportunities for office trainees to develop decisionmaking organizational and communicative skills 2 to develop competency in office procedures and in the office skills 3 to provide an educational background in business and office organizations 4 to encourage better human relations 5 to offer professional office workers opportunities to update their skills and knowledge
It is the feeling of the faculty of the newly redesignated Department that the term secretarial science is no longer appropriate The course offerings are much broader they offer far more career options they appeal to both male and female students and they meet more of the needs of the business community than the traditional secretarial science program
The Colleges affirmative action and desegregation plans will not be affected by these actions
VocationalTechnical Unit ets InPrinciple Approval
Approval in principle of the establishment of a VocationalTechnical Division at Clayton Junior College was voted by the Board of Regents at the February 1213 meeting

The VocationalTechnical Division of Clayton Junior Colge like VocationalTechnical Divisions presently in operan at three other University System institutions Bainbridge nior College Brunswick Junior College and Dalton Junior
College would be established operated and funded in accordance with an agreement between the Board of Regents and the State Board of Education
The establishment of vocationaltechnical programs at Clayton Junior College would be a logical and needed extension of current programs an agenda item considered by the Regents indicated The 1979 Master Plan for Postsecondary Area VocationalTechnical Schools indicates a need to expand vocationaltechnical education programs in the south metropolitan Atlanta area and surveys also indicate high student interest in such programs
Also according to the agenda item
The availability of instructional and administrative services already in existence at Clayton Junior College will eliminate the duplication of many services that would be necessitated by establishing an institution external to the College
Establishment of the proposed VocationalTechnical Division would provide learning experiences for the citizens of the Clayton Junior College area whose needs are not currently being met

percent for matriculation fees 212 percent for nonreside t tuition fees
The increases for students at the 15 junior colleges are 20 1 percent for matriculation fees 264 percent for nonresident tuition fees
The increases in the fees will produce additional revenue estimated at 14 million in the 198081 fiscal year Tl s revenue will be applied toward alleviation of a shortfall f 182 million of anticipated state appropriation for the University System for the 198081 fiscal year The shortfall is the difference between the actual state appropriation for the year and the state appropriation that the Board of Regen s anticipated
The state appropriation that the Board anticipated was the amount the Board considered would be required to opera e the University System in the 198081 fiscal year at essentially the level of the 197980 fiscal year
The 42 million of the shortfall not covered by anticipated revenue from the increases in fees will be settled through adjustments in the budgets of University System institutions The adjustment will be made by taking into account the overall fiscal situation at each institution instead of by using a University Systemwide formula
Committee Work Extensive
The recommendation for authorization of the increases was made to the Board of Regents by the Boards standing Committee on Finance and Business Operations The Committee with Regent Lamar R Plunkett of Bowdon as chairman held several meetings prior to the twoday Board meeting in Augusta and three sessions in Augusta in connection with the Board meeting

Without any increase in matriculation and nonresident tuition fees revenue from such fees in the 198081 fiscal year

The System Summary
would have been paying 166 percent of the cost of instruction
Revenue from matriculation and nonresident tuition fees in the 197980 fiscal year which will end on June 30 is paying 192 percent of the cost of instruction
Revenue from matriculation and nonresident tuition fees

At 30 of the 33 University System institutions health insurance coverage is provided through the Plan a selfinsurance program At the other three institutions Medical College of Georgia University of Georgia and Augusta College health insurance coverage is provided through other plans arranged individually by the institutions
The contributions made by the Board of Regents for health insurance coverage are made through budgets of University System institutions and are the same for employees at all institutions For employees at institutions under the System Plan the Board pays 70 percent and the employee pays 30 percent of the health insurance premiums For employees at the three institutions not under the System Plan the Board pays the same amount in dollars that it pays for employees under the System Plan up to 70 percent of actual cost

The staffprepared agenda item recommending the increases indicated Our experience in this selfinsured System Plan indicates that costs are escalating at approximately the same rate as the inflation rate in the national economy The most recently calculated rate of escalation is 186 percent in the monthly claims over the previous 12 months This is tempered by the fact that the increase in the threemonth average over the same threemonth period a year earlier is 176 percent which indicates that there may be some slowing of the rate of escalation

Authorization was given for the exchange of properties on a straight exchange basis between the Board of Regents
nd the Peach County Board of Education
The building and land known as the Demonstration School wned by the Board of Regents will be exchanged for the uilding and land known as Peach County Training School ddition owned by the Peach County Board of Education An Exchange of Occupancy Agreement in effect since vlarch 30 1973 authorized the occupancy and maintenance f the Demonstration School property located approximately vo miles away from the Fort Valley State College campus djacent to a Peach County Elementary School by the Peach ounty Board of Education for use as a kindergarten
The Agreement also authorized the occupancy and mainlance of the Peach County Training School Addition loed directly across State College Drive from Huntington
Hall the administration building at Fort Valley State College by the Board of Regents for use by Fort Valley State for its Cooperative Extension program Psychology Department social science classes and a hypertension research project
Three appraisals have been made of each of the two pieces of property The average of the three appraisals in each case is Demonstration School property 361834 Peach County Training School Addition property 321834
The Regents were told through a staffprepared agenda item
While all three appraisers show the value for replacement cost new for the properties involved as being relatively close taking into consideration the difference in the square footage of the structures used by the appraisers and the cost per square foot to replace the buildings they vary considerably in the depreciated values especially on the gymnasium part of the Demonstration School property for which one appraiser used 47 percent and the two other appraisers used 85 percent and 90 percent
The gymnasium with attached building is approximately 27 years old and in a very poor state of repair The City of Fort Valley has put a sign on the entrance door to the gym stating that it is an unsafe building If the Board of Regents retains this property it will be required to demolish the gym structure Therefore we feel the 85 percent90 percent depreciation of two appraisals for this building is more in line than the 47 percent depreciation of the other appraisal The appraisals as related to the depreciated values of the gymnasium of the Demonstration School were 307500 and 308000 for the appraisals placing depreciated values of 85 percent and 90 percent respectively on the gymnasium 470000 for the appraisals placing a depreciated value of 47 percent on the gymnasium
We recommended that the Board authorize this exchange of the properties as a straight exchange accepting the value of these properties based on the appraisals that placed depreciated values of 85 percent and 90 percent on the gymnasium of the Demonstration School
Authorization was given for the sale of 15 acres of Board of Regents land located on the campus of West Georgia College by fee simple deed without warranty to the City of Carrollton for use by the City in the expansion of its sewage treatment plant
The land will be sold for 29250 or 1950 per acre the same per acre price that the Board paid in 1973 The average of three recent appraisals show the value of the 15 acres to be 8500 or 567 per acre
The land is located at the back of the campus of West Georgia College off Ole Hickory Trail on the banks of the Little Tallapoosa River and is part of 65 acres the Board of Regents acquired in July 1973 from Felix Cole at a cost of 128018 or 1950 per acre

The System Summary
STATEMENTS ON MAY 20 ELECTION OF CHANCELLOR
The texts of statements by Board of Regents Chairman Erwin A Friedman and Chancellor Vernon Crawford on the election of the Chancellor by the Board of Regents at a special meeting in Atlanta on May 20 are
Chairman Friedmans Statement
I am pleased to announce that the Board by a unanimous vote in executive session has approved a motion that effective this date Dr Vernon Crawford be elected to the office of Chancellor of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia to serve in accordance with the policies and bylaws of the Board of Regents
I am also pleased to announce that Dr Crawford has indicated to the Board his acceptance of this appointment
On behalf of the entire Board I congratulate Chancellor Crawford and pledge to him our full support in the discharge of his duties and responsibilities
The Board action today culminates a search and selection process which began last July with the appointment of an 18member Search and Screen Committee chaired by Dr Joseph M Pettit President of Georgia Tech and containing senior administrators faculty representatives students and citizensatlarge
Since the creation of the University System fortyeight years ago the System has had six Chancellors and two Acting Chancellors Three men served a total of fortytwo of those fortyeight years None of those who previously served in the position of Chancellor was selected by anything which resembled the process which the Search and Screen Committee for the selection of our new Chancellor employed
That process was as comprehensive and exhaustive in its scope as it was fair and honest in the manner in which it was conducted It produced a truly nationwide search and resulted in the identification of a substantial number of individuals deemed qualified for the position of Chancellor
Over a period of many months the Search and Screen Committee distilled an original prospect list of over two hundred individuals to the final short list which was submitted to the Board of Regents at its March meeting
This short list was comprised of individuals of outstanding reputations in the academic world All of them were eminently qualified for the position of Chancellor It is a reflection of Dr Crawfords scholarship and his academic and administrative qualities as well as the esteem in which he is held by the academic community that the Board made him its unanimous choice for the position
I believe the search process was a very healthy one for the University System for a number of reasons I will mention only two of these
First it actively involved all of the major constituencies
within the University System and cast a major responsibility on each of them in reaching the final selection It is not unfair to say that the academic community over which he will now preside chose Dr Crawford as its leader Thus the concept of shared governance and collegiality has been firmly established
Secondly it brought into sharper focus many of the strengths our University System possesses As I said the search was a national one and all of those individuals on the Search and Screen Committees short list met personally with a committee of Regents Their comments and reflections on the University System of Georgia gave us new insights to the esteemed regard in which higher education in this State and the Georgia system for its governance are regarded by the Nation
At the first meeting of the Search and Screen Committee I stated that the Board wanted a strong chief executive officer Dr Crawford more than satisfies that requirement as well as the other qualities we sought and which are enumerated in the Boards search document
Dr Crawford was born on February 13 1919 in Amherst Nova Scotia Canada He became a citizen of this country in 1953 Dr Crawford earned his bachelors degree at Mount Allison University in New Brunswick Canada his masters at Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia Canada and his PhD in physics at the University of Virginia He has been associated with the University System of Georgia and the Georgia Institute of Technology continuously since 1949 At Georgia Tech he held progressively larger responsibilities in the School of Physics and the institution as a whole until his appointment to the position of Vice President for Academic Affairs which he has held since 1969 While at Tech he has held major committee assignments for that institution as well as for the University System as a whole
Dr Crawford has published frequently in his specialization in various professional journals He has served as Acting Chancellor for the University System of Georgia since June 15 of last year
Dr Crawford made the best decision of his entire life on May 15 1943 when he married his wife Helen They have two daughters Lynne Kathleen Crawford Hood and Delle Marie Crawford Byrd
Dr Crawfords real academic and administrative strengths extend far beyond the statistics of his academic career
He accepted the position of Acting Chancellor at a time of considerable stress in the life of this Board He moved with remarkable speed in establishing confidence and respect throughout the University System Among his own staff in the Central Office as well as at each institution Dr Crawford established a rapport and working relationship based on mutual trust and the expectation

of a high degree of competency in the performance of each individuals responsibilities
He demonstrated great skill as an administrator and an uncanny ability to make others strive for the best that was in them to meet his standards
Dr Crawford is a scholar and an intellectual He is also a warm and compassionate human being with a marvelous feeling for and understanding of others It is even said by some that he has a fair sense of humor
The Board of Regents is essentially a group of generalists who should bring to their job the widest possible perspective of higher education and the myriad of interests it must serve This perspective must range from the point of view of each individual student and his hopes and aspirations to the needs of the State as a whole to produce and sustain useful and productive citizens as well as to the more philosophical concerns of advancing the state of mans knowledge and his understanding and appreciation of himself and his relationship with his fellowman and the entire cosmos
The Board must have on it people who can operate without special bias or interest in any one segment of the educational spectrum They must be able to reconcile competing priorities with available resources in a fair and rational way
In the execution of its constitutional responsibility the Board must construct clear and clearly understandable basic educational policies for higher education This it must do out of its own diversity of background and experience its own generalist perspective out of the demands of individual citizens and groups of citizens and the needs of our State working with the resources available to it
The person with whom the Board works most closely and who is primarily responsible for the execution of broad educational policies within the University System is the Chancellor
It is too simple to say of course that the Board establishes policy and the Chancellor executes it Their relationship is considerably deeper and more subtle than this
Policy is produced from the distillation of the ideas demands efforts and work of many forces and in that process the Chancellor is both a force in his own right and a filter of all the other forces
Our System along with most of the others in the United States has emerged from a fifteenyear period of unprecedented growth in enrollment academic offerings and physical plant into a period of stability assessment of quality and fiscal accountability The emergence of new educational priorities in the next decade will provide their own challenges opportunities and excitement
The Chancellor of the University System of Georgia has indeed a platform from which he can speak for all of
public higher education in this State and in my opinion the job of Chancellor is one of the two or three most influential public positions in this State
I charged the Search and Screen Committee at its initial meeting that what the Board sought was a whole persona man or a woman who commands our respect and support for what he or she is rather than for what he or she is not In selecting Dr Crawford the Board feels that we have indeed gotten that whole person and we look forward to working with him in the years ahead as we all strive to improve and enhance the University System of Georgia
I wish to express the Boards deep appreciation to Dr Pettit and to all of the other members of the Search and Screen Committee for their outstanding work
I also wish to add a special thanks on behalf of the Board to Dr Richard Fuller Assistant to the President at Georgia Tech and Dr Haskin Pounds Vice Chancellor for Planning for the invaluable assistance to the Search and Screen Committee and to the Board during the search process
Chancellor Crawfords Statement
To have been asked to serve the University System of Georgia as its Chancellor is an honor of which I am deeply sensible I accept the assignment with a good understanding of what the positionrequires I pledge to the Board of Regents and to the people of Georgia my best effort to carry out the responsibilities of the office
For the past eleven months I have served the University System of Georgia as its Acting Chancellor During that time I have learned many things one of which is that the Board of Regents is a remarkable organization It is remarkable because of the individuals who are its members each of whom is a success in some business or profession each of whom brings a unique perspective to the Board each of whom is dedicated to providing the best opportunities for higher education to the citizens of Georgia which the state can afford and all of whom give unselfishly of their time to carry out their responsibilities as Regents The citizens of Georgia are well served by this remarkable group of people The fact that the offer of the Chancellorship comes from this Board and after an extensive search by a committee of outstanding education and community leaders is to me the most gratifying aspect of the siutation I will do my best to be worthy of the confidence the Regents have shown in me and I will always strive to work effectively with them within the policies which govern our relationship
As Chancellor I shall have the opportunity to work closely with a number of wonderful people Foremost among these is one who would have remained closely associated with me I have reason to believe no matter what the outcome of the search for the Chancellor might

The System Summary
have been just as she has guided and propped me up for the past 37 years I refer of course to my wife Helen It is safe to say that she has worked at least as diligently as during the past year in the interests of the University System Without her I could do little together we are dynamite
Another Helen who has provided the finest support anyone could ask for is my secretary Mrs Helen Beacham
I will be eternally grateful to her
Time does not permit me to single out other members of the Central Office staff the presidents of the institutions members of the Governors staff or of the Legislature who have been particularly helpful and supportive of me during the past year I can only say that I have thoroughly enjoyed my association with all of them and look forward to continuing the excellent relationships which I believe are now firmly established
It would be natural to ask a new Chancellor what his plans are for the University System To that question I would respond by identifying a few of the goals I will strive to attain confident that in doing so I shall have the full support of the Board of Regents
The overriding goal will be to improve the quality of the programs of instruction research and service being offered by our institutions Many of these programs are already of very high quality some are of lesser quality all can be improved Ultimately the improvements must be effected by the institutions themselves but the Central Office can provide encouragement of various kinds the most effective of which is through the allocation with Board of Regents authorization of resources It is my hope that in the years ahead the resources will be available for the quality improvements needed at all levels of the University System Our citizens deserve the best
A principal strength of the University System of Georgia is that it is indeed a systemthe most tightly organized and comprehensive single system of higher education in the Nation I believe I shall strive to capitalize on the strength inherent in the System by improving communications between the Board of Regents and the Central Office on the one hand and the thirtythree institutions on the other so that each institution can understand and take pride in its uniquely important role within the total University System
The most pleasant and I believe the most productive activity in which I have engaged during the past year has been that of visiting the campuses talking to the faculties the administrative staffs and the students and thereby improving the allimportant lines of communication between my office and the locations where the programs of the University System are being carried out These visits have been most instructive to me and have I believe strengthened the sense of identity of the institutions
Communication is extremely important not just within the System but also between the System and each of the elements of society with which it interacts Prominent among these elements are the Governor and his staff
the Senate the House of Representatives and several of the agencies of the State government A goal of mine as Chancellor will be to maintain and to improve where possible the communications and the sense of trust between the University System and all branches of State government From our side we must be willing and able to render an acceptable account of our stewardship of that portion of the States resources which is allocated to us On its part the State government must be aware that the University System is a very valuable resource and that quality in higher education costs money
The University System provides services of various kinds to agriculture and to virtually every type of business and industry in the state A goal of my office will be to seek the advice and counsel of representatives of all of these elements of our society to learn how our services can be improved
The goals which I have identified thus far are rather general To those I wish to add one which is a bit more specific Higher education is not an island entire of itself It is inextricably linked with much of the rest of society and most particularly with elementary and secondary education I believe that heretofore too little attention has been paidnot just in Georgia but universally to the interdependence of all levels of the educational enterprise I would like to repair that traditional neglect by having my office work more effectively with the State Department of Education and by encouraging the institutions of the University System to work more closely with local schools in every way that will help us achieve our common goal of better education at all levels for the citizens of Georgia We are truly dependent on one another The elementary and secondary schools prepare the students who enter the University System the University System prepares most of the teachers who instruct and counsel those students Given those circumstances it is obvious that we need close and effective cooperation To achieve it will be a particular goal to which I will strive in the coming years
The challenges facing the University System are awesome and the opportunities are exciting I am convinced that public higher education in Georgia is not entering its twilight phase In spite of the dire predictions concerning the economy and in spite of the expected decrease in the number of individuals in the pool from which college students have been traditionally drawn I am confident that the best is yet to come and that the better will come soon
As I said in the beginning quality of education must come first In that conviction we come full circle to the beginnings of higher education in this State and the articulation of the central goal as it is contained in the Charter of the University of Georgia written in 1785 to form the youth the rising hope of our land to render glorious and essential services to our country
I look forward with keen anticipation to the task of reaching for that goal
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN USED IN SELECTING CHANCELLOR
The search for and selection of the chancellor for the University System of Georgia was conducted in accordance with a comprehensive plan

The employment of all persons under the age of 18 years shall be in compliance with the regulations of the US Depart
ment of Labor Individuals who have reached the mandatory retirement age shall not be employed or offered employmen in any capacity without prior approval of the Board of Regents
The amendment provision that persons who are emplo ed beyond the mandatory retirement age presently 70 years be paid from nonstate funds is a reinstatement of a former provision relating to postretirement employment

The System Summary
Board Votes YearLong Review Of Funding Formula of System
Review of the University System of Georgia Funding Formula was authorized by the Board of Regents at the June 1011 meeting
The action recommended by Chancellor Vernon Crawford provides that a final report on the review will be made to the Board of Regents at the Boards June 1981 meeting
The Funding Formula is used by the Board of Regents in requesting annual state appropriations for University System teaching institutions and other units programs and services It provides for requests for funds to be based on the number of quartercredithours generated One of the major objectives of the newly authorized yearlong review should be to determine the advisability of supplemental approaches such as special program funding and quality improvement funding Chancellor Crawford told the Regents
The review as described in the Chancellors proposal that was approved by the Board would be conducted under the general supervision of an executive committee The members of the executive committee would be the chancellor of the University System the vice chancellor for fiscal affairs and treasurer of the University System the director of the State Office of Planning and Budget and the budget officer of the General Assembly There may be recommendation by the Chancellor to make adjustments in the membership of the executive committee the Board action approving the proposal indicated Neither of the proposed members outside the University System had been contacted pending Board of Regents action the Chancellor said
Under the provisions of the adopted proposal
Roger Mosshart assistant vice chancellor for fiscal affairsbudgets will be the director of the review responsible for coordination and daytoday supervision
Chancellor Crawford will appoint several teams made up of personnel from faculty and administrative staffs of
University System colleges and universities and from the Board of Regents office to make recommendations in major areas The major areas identified in the adopted proposal are instruction research public service academic support student services institutional support operation and maintenance of physical plant
Other committees and consultants outside the University System will be added as the need for them is determined by the executive committee
The people involved in conducting the review should do the following things and others that may be identified during the course of the study as being necessary or desirable
1 Reexamine the concept of a formula which is completely driven by the number of quartercredithours generated to determine the advisability of supplemental approaches such as special program funding and quality improvement funding
2 Examine the weighting of course levels and disciplines
3 Consider the possibility of using actual historical data rather than projected data in the formula calculations
4 Examine the possibility of including both fixed and variable costs in the formula
5 Eliminate as many line items as possible from the budget by having them covered by the formula
6 Consider including student fees in the formula possibly as a percentage of instructional costs
7 Give consideration to retention by the institutions of some portion of their indirect cost recovery income
8 Give special consideration to fringe benefits funding
9 Emphasize study of library funding
10 Consider increasing demands by outside forces on costs within the System
11 Give consideration to other organized activities fundingstate appropriation vs internal income
12 Study the possibility of an allocation formula from the Board of Regents to the institutions

Major options considered during the development of the recommendation Dr Crawford said were maintaining the status quo relationship of Southern Technical Institute and Georgia Institute of Technology closer affiliation separation
A majority of the members of the Regents Study Committee votingsix of tenfavored closer affiliation of Southern Technical Institute and Georgia Institute of Technology Dr Crawford said in his recommendation while a majority of Southern Technical Institute faculty members voting 67 of 96favored complete separation of the two units
Southern Technical Institute has been a division of the Georgia Institute of Technology ever since its inception It was authorized in October 1947 following a request from the Associated Industries of Georgia now the Georgia Business and Industry Association pointing out the needs for technicians for Georgia industries
The division was initiated with a twoyear program in March 1948 in facilities of the old Atlanta Naval Air Station near Chamblee It was moved to a new 180acre campus in Marietta where it is presently located in 1961 The division was converted by the Board of Regents to fouryear status in 1970 at which time it began offering programs leading to the Bachelor of Engineering Technology degree The division has continued to offer twoyear associate degrees in engineering technology

The System Summary
Major Programs Approved For Five System Institutions
A new major under an existing doctors degree program at the University of Georgia was authorized by the Board of Regents at the July 89 meeting
Several other actions pertaining to academic programs at University System institutions were taken by the Board at the same meeting Those actions provide for implementation of three new majors under existing Bachelor of Science degree programs and two new majors under an existing Associate in Science degree program and approval of professional status for a masters degree program
New Major Programs
The University of Georgia was authorized to offer a major in foods and nutrition under the institutions existing Doctor of Philosophy degree program effective beginning in September 1980
This newly authorized degreemajor program has been designed to prepare graduates to teach or to accept positions in industry or governmental agencies The program will emphasize an understanding of the human needs for food of the metabolic responses to dietary change and of the interacting effects of a variety of dietary ingredients on human health and wellbeing
The Regents were told through agenda material that
The Doctor of Philosophy program in foods and nutrition at the University of Georgia and the new Georgia Institute of Human Nutrition at the Medical College of Georgia will be mutually supportive The Georgia Institute of Human Nutrition was authorized by the Board of Regents in June to be established on July 1 1980
One of the indications of need for this program is that the University has had no difficulty in placing its master s degree graduates in fact some students in the master s program have been employed before completing that program
The University has been developing a faculty in the Department of Foods and Nutrition whose competence will support the doctorallevel program in foods and nutrition Of he seven fulltime faculty in the department five currently hold graduate faculty appointments An additional faculty member with credentials suitable for instruction in the PhD program has been recruited for September 1980 appointment A projection indicates that five students will be enrolled in the program during the first year of operation and that 15 students will be enrolled by the third year
The Department of Foods and Nutrition will make every effort to attract minority students It is anticipated hat minority enrollment in the program will constitute a minimum of 10 percent of total enrollment
New funding of 13000 projected by the University for he development of the program for the first year is available nternally Additional funding needs of 37400 for the second ear and 33000 for the third year to develop fully the proram will be provided for in the institution s normal budgeary allocations University officials have indicated
Augusta College was authorized to offer a major in physial science under the institutions existing Bachelor ot Science
degree program effective beginning in September 1980
This degreemajor program in physical science will serve two basic purposes It will provide a curriculum which will allow the prospective teacher to complete an undergraduate degree program and to qualify for the T4 certification in chemistry and physics within the normal fouryear time span agenda material indicated A student majoring in chemistry or in physics at Augusta College would need five years to complete simultaneously the major requirements and teacher certification requirements the agenda material also indicated
Also the newly authorized program will establish an academic structure which will allow the student an option to pursue a dualdegree program 32 cooperative program with the Georgia Institute of Technology The cooperative program provides for the student to complete three years at Augusta College before transferring to the Georgia Institute of Technology for an additional two years of study leading to the Bachelor of Science degree in some field of engineering Upon the award of the degree by Georgia Tech the student will receive a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in physical science from Augusta College
The Regents were told through agenda material
There is expectation that enrollment in the newly authorized major will be relatively small with approximately eight students per year
There is expectation that minority enrollment will constitute 25 percent of the programs total enrollment
Fort Valley State College was authorized to implement in September 1980 a major in computer science under the institutions existing Bachelor of Science degree program
The student who enrolls in the program will be offered a choice of two options scientific systems and information systems The option in scientific systems is designed to prepare students for employment in researchoriented facilities or for graduate work The option in information systems is designed to prepare students for systems programming positions in commercial establishments or for advanced study in the specialty agenda material reviewed by the Regents indicated
The agenda material also indicated
Fort Valley State College has worked with consultants who have had experience in developing computer science programs at comparable institutions
The College has conducted surveys to determine enrollment potential and has identified a large recruitment pool for the program A projection indicates an initial enrollment of 45 students in the newly authorized program and a fiveyear cumulative enrollment of 161 students in the program There is also anticipation that minority enrollment will constitute 20 percent of the programs total enrollment
The College has studied the employment potential for computer specialists and considers it quite positive statewide as well as regionally and nationally Information compiled in 1977 indicates that Georgia colleges are producing only 20 percent of the graduates in the computer science field needed in the state
The program is a part of the Plan for Further Desegregation of the University System Fort Valley State College President Cleveland W Pettigrew has indicated that a delay in

Programs Continuedfrom Page 5
implementation of the program will have an adverse effect on the Colleges recruitment efforts According to President Pettigrew students have enrolled at Fort Valley in anticipation of the availability of a major in computer science and a number of prospective students have made inquiry about the programs availability
A projection indicates that the additional initial cost of the program will be 93500 in the first year increasing to 185300 by the third year These are maximum costs and may be reduced to some extent as needs become more apparent
West Georgia College was authorized to offer a major in secondary social science education under the institutions existing Bachelor of Science in Education degree program effective beginning in September 1980
The curriculum for this degreemajor program provides the student breadth in social science preparation and will require 75 quarter hours in four social science areas a core of 45 hours in three areas 15 hours in each a concentration of 30 hours in one area not included in the core
Many social studies teachers at the secondary level are required to teach more than one social science agenda material reviewed by the Regents indicated Employers also seek those teachers who are prepared to teach ancillary courses in personal finance citizenship and economicbusinessfree enterprise the agenda item indicated Therefore the prospective teacher with the more specialized certification in economics history geography or political science may find narrower opportunities for employment or may be assigned when employed to instructional areas in which heshe lacks a suitable level of competence
The agenda material also indicated
The new broadfield program meets the criteria established by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education and the National Council of Social Studies Certification for the secondary social science education program is relatively new in Georgia A number of programs are under development in the state however the program is not currently offered by any institution in the state
There is expectation that minority enrollment will constitute six percent of the programs total enrollment
The Medical College of Georgia was authorized to implement majors in nuclear medicine technology and in radiation therapy technology under the existing Associate in Science degree program effective beginning in September 1980
Professional certificate programs in the areas of nuclear medicine technology and radiation therapy technology are currently operative at the Medical College of Georgia and will continue as an option for students the Regents were told through an agenda item These professional certificate programs require three years for completion 12 months of special study following two years of study in an allied health discipline leading to an Associate in Science degree
The Regents were also told
The certificate programs are designed to meet accreditation essentials of the Council on Medical Education of the American Medical Association adopted in the late 1960s These accreditation essentials were revised in the mid1970s to establish educational standards for twoyear programs in
tended for high school graduates who had not previoi ly qualified in other health care professions qualifications io longer considered necessary
The newly authorized degreemajor programs will j 0vide an entrylevel track for the professions of nuclear mi licine and radiation therapy technology and will reduce he educational period from three years to two years
National projections indicate potentially serious she tages of technical personnel in the nuclear medicine and ra iation therapy areas during the 1980s Statewide surveys cc iducted by the Medical College of Georgia in 1979 indicat a projected need during 1980 and 1981 for 49 nuclear medic le technologists and 18 radiation therapy technologists
It is estimated that enrollment in the nuclear medic e technology program will be five students and nine studei s for the first and third years of operation respectively It is estimated that enrollment in the radiation therapy technolo y program will be four students and six students for the fir t and third years of operation respectively
It is anticipated that the removal of the requirement for previous training in an allied health field for admission to the nuclear medicine technology and radiation therapy technology programs will significantly increase minority group access to these programs by allowing a direct track from high school to the professional objectives offered
Professional Program Status
The University of Georgia received approval to grant professional status to the Master of Accounting degree progran effective beginning on July 10 1980
The University of Georgia currently offers programs in the following areas which carry the professional designation forest resources law pharmacy social work and veterinary medicine
Officials at the University feel that official designation of professional status for the Master of Accounting degree program is of great importance to the future development of the School of Accounting according to agenda material reviewed by the Regents Such a designation will be viewed as an indication of a solid commitment to professional education in accounting and will assist the School of Accounting in its effort to seek greater recognition and support from the professional community nationwide Such a designation will also assist the School in placing its graduates with firms of Certified Public Accountants
Agenda material indicated
Every state has established boards of accounting which perform regulatory and licensing functions similar to those performed by boards identified with other wellestablished professions such as law and veterinary medicine
The American Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business AACSB is moving toward the establishment of accreditation of fiveyear accounting programs Professional status for the Master of Accounting program at the University will be of value when the University seeks AACSB accreditation for that program
Only those accounting courses numbered 500 or above will be considered as being in the graduateprofessional category

Professors Position on Vote Supported in Regents Action
The Board of Regents has expressed support for James A Dinnan a University of Georgia professor who received a fine and a prison sentence for refusing to tell a federal court how he voted in a faculty evaluation matter
The support was set forth in a statement adopted by the Board of Regents at its July 89 meeting The statement indicated the Boards approval of the practices and customs relative to the confidentiality of faculty evaluations upon which Professor Dinnans decision was based
Dr Dinnan is professor of reading and adult education in the College of Education at the University of Georgia He was cited for contempt of federal court for which he paid a fine of 100 per day for a month and on July 3 began serving a 90day prison sentence The contempt of court citation was issued for his refusal to disclose how he voted in a committee action that denied promotion and tenure to a faculty member
The faculty member who was denied promotion and tenure by the committee on which Dr Dinnan served filed a suit in the US District Court for the Middle District of Georgia It was in connection with that suit that Dr Dinnan declined to disclose how he voted in the committee action and drew the contempt of court citation
Text of Boards Statement
The text of the Statement adopted by the Board of Regents at its July 89 meeting is
The Board of Regents has been informed that Professor James Dinnan of the University of Georgia has surrendered himself to the federal authorities to serve a sentence for contempt of court arising out of his decision not to divulge how he voted in a particular evaluation of a fellow faculty member at the University Professor Dinnan grounded his decision on his belief that the responsibility to evaluate the work of ones peers with confidentiality as well as honesty is essential to the educational process
The Board of Regents did not attempt to influence Professor Dinnans decision in this matter although we have approved the practices and customs relative to the confidentiality of faculty evaluations upon which Professor Dinnans decision was based We believe that these practices and customs are consistent with academic freedom and essential to effective governance
At the same time the Board fully recognizes and respects the authority of the Court to enforce orderly procedures in the conduct of litigation and the concurrent obligation of citizens to comply with the directives of the court
However in the discharge of our responsibility of providing the highest quality education to the citizens of Georgia and their children we must rely upon the objective judgments of faculty in evaluating the performance of their peers Objectivity in these judgments is less likely if the professors subjective evaluations are subject to the review of those evaluated
We believe that Professor Dinnans position is consistent with Board Policies and the practices and customs of academia Accordingly the Board will ask the Attorney General to file an amicus brief in support of Professor Dinnans position in the appropriate appellate courts

EdS Degrees Continuedfrom Front Cover
colleges in relation to the Specialist in Education degree
The agenda item summary of the situations of the senior colleges indicated
Georgia College Georgia Southern College Valdosta State College and West Georgia College are currently authorized to offer Specialist in Education EdS degrees
Columbus College and Georgia Southwestern College have submitted formal proposals for the establishment of EdS programs
Armstrong State College Augusta College and North Georgia College have made initial inquiries about EdS programs
Fort Valley State College currently offers teacher education programs at the Masters level
Albany State College and Kennesaw College do not offer Master of Education programs at the present time
Savannah State College and Southern Technical Institute will not be involved in the offering of teacher education programs
Two universities of the University SystemGeorgia State University and the University of Georgiaalso offer Specialist in Education degree programs
Special Factors Listed
The staffprepared agenda item indicated that the available evidence shows that the six University System institutions four senior units and two universitylevel institutionscurrently authorized to offer programs at the EdS level technically provide adequate opportunity within the state for those who wish to enroll in such programs However the agenda item continued the recommendation for the Board of Regents to approve in concept the offering of the Specialist in Education degree by additional institutions was based on these factors 1 a number of institutions currently have the resources to offer EdS programs in specific academic areas 2 several of these institutions are located in geographic areas where there is a population concentration and therefore a concentration of teacher education personnel 3 an EdS program is not the type of program which attracts a great number of residence students it will attract students if the program is locally available and can be completed on a com
bined parttime and fulltime summer basis and 4 lo J school administrators are quite supportive of the establi iment of EdS programs in areas not currently served y institutions for which those programs are authorized
In a memorandum to Presidents on July 15 Acting V e Chancellor H Dean Propst emphasized that the Board f Regents action at the July 89 meeting does not give blank approval for the establishment of EdS programs Instea 1 he wrote the action simply adopts the principle that sui h programs may be offered at additional fouryear institutio s if a need for these programs can be clearly demonstrated Dr Propst added
There is a legitimate concern that the establishment c f additional programs at the EdS level may lead to an u necessary proliferation of such programs
We request that very careful scrutiny be given at the inst tutional level to all proposed programs at the EdS level before submission of these programs for Central Office revie and Board of Regents approval There should be clear evi dence of the immediate need for a specific program as we as a reasonable projection of longrange need

In assuming this position it is also very reassuring to reflect upon the interest and support which Governor Busbee and our leaders in the Legislature have manifested in the Uni
versity System I express to them our warmest appreciation and pledge our continued cooperation in trying to give the citizens and taxpayers of this state the best possible return on every tax dollar which they invest in higher education
I also wish to express my warm appreciation to the presidents of our various institutions the student leaders and the faculty members who have served so well the cause of this system of higher education
The last year has been a very critical and trying one in the history of the University System The fact that we have come through these times so successfully with uninterrupted progress and with a new chancellor is testimony enough to the outstanding leadership qualities of Chairman Erwin A Friedman To him we owe the most profound expressions of gratitude He has set an example of high standards of performance

A review of the local institutions library holdings shall be conducted in the areas in which joint programs are proposed If deficiencies are evident they shall be addressed through library loans or appropriate purchases
8 Funding
The proposal must detail the anticipated expenses of the cooperative degree program including additional resources necessary to successfully implement the program
These criteria shall be addressed within the existing guidelines for the preparation of formal program proposals
C Upon its submission to the chancellor the program proposal will be reviewed by the staff in the Office of Academic Development for a recommendation through the chancellor to the Board of Regents
D Following the implementation of a cooperative residential doctorallevel degree program an annual review of the programs effectiveness and viability shall be submitted by the appropriate office of both institutions to their respective presidents and forwarded to the chancellor A recommendation for discontinuing a program shall be made at such time as an enrolled population can no longer justify the existence of the activity
Use of Existing Resources Capacities
A staffprepared agenda item recommending that the Board of Regents approve the concept of cooperative doctoral degree programs indicated
This recommendation has been initiated by the Task Force on Optimal Distribution of Institutions Within the University System It has been reviewed by the academic deans and vice presidents in the System and in its original form has been endorsed by the presidents in the System With some minor modifications which are included in the above outline the Task Force recommendation also has the endorsement of the chancellor
It is the judgment of the members of the Task Force that the proposed means of expanding doctorallevel educational opportunities to areas of the state not now having immediate
access to such opportunities will be the most efficient means of providing these opportunities in a manner most consistent with high educational standards The utilization of the existing resources of the universities and the existing capacities of the senior colleges in a cooperative educational endeavor at the doctoral level will eliminate the necessity for the creation of additional highcost independent doctorallevel programs at institutions not currently authorized to offer such programs
The existing research orientation of the universities along with the existing doctorallevel program structures will complement and combine with the resources of the senior colleges to meet effectively an educational need which may be shortrange in nature Utilization of the proposed cooperative residential degree program concept for doctorallevel offerings will allow greater flexibility for the System in the management of its resources as it attempts to meet educational needs at this level across the state
While not so limited by the language of the recommendation the programs most likely to be proposed as part of the cooperative residential degree concept will be at the Doctor of Education EdD level
Proposal Return Promised
A proposal by Georgia Southern College a senior college to establish a Doctor of Education degreea proposal that has been longstanding in the Board of Regents office will be returned according to H Dean Propst acting vice chancellor and vice chancellor for academic development
Dr Propst presented the recommendation for the Board of Regents to approve the concept under which University System universities could offer doctoral degree programs at the Systems senior colleges in cooperation with the senior colleges In making the presentation he indicated that it would be our intent unless directed otherwise by the Board upon approval of the concept of cooperative doctoral degree programs to return the doctoral degree proposal to Georgia Southern College The proposal will be returned Dr Propst said with a statement that at this time the Board of Regents office will not give further consideration to the proposal for a doctoral degree program
The Board did not indicate that the Georgia Southern College proposal should not be returned

A INSTITUTIONAL REVIEW
The president of an institution of the University System of Georgia seeking to modify its mission and purpose with the intent of changing classification level shall write a letter to the chancellor requesting consideration When in the judgment of the chancellor there exist any factors that warrant consideration of a change in an institutions mission and purpose the chancellor may in consultation with that institutions president and the Board of Regents initiate the preparation and submission of a plan for institutional review The institutional review shall provide substantive evidence and rationale specifically related to the following considerations
1 Needs Assessment
An analysis of demographic characteristics of the region served shall be included which provides supportive rationale for projection of student enrollment and employment opportunities for graduates of proposed programs The cost effectiveness of programs should be compared with similar institutions in the System Dependent upon the academic level of proposed programs careful attention should be directed to employment opportunities in the regions served by the institution Such a review should include reference to the following criteria
A Qualitative Criteria
In completing an institutional review primary attention shall be given to qualitative criteria along with recommended EFT Equivalent FullTime minimums and cost effectiveness Quality of programs and effectiveness of the institution in meeting unique community needs may well outweigh the objective criteria of numbers alone Institutional contributions to the resolution of social economic cultural problems and the enhancement of the quality of life of citizens in isolated areas of the State must be considered Quality and institutional effectiveness can be determined by such program aspects as performance of graduates program standards course offerings characteristics of the faculty efficiency in the operation of equipment and facilities etc
B Expenditure Per EFT Student
The provision of educational services provided by an institution shall be evaluated in terms of costs relative to other System institutions
1 The best available indicator of an institutions cost effectiveness is its relation to the mean per EFT student cost which is provided for each type of institution
2 In order for an institutions classification to be advanced projections of the EFT student enrollment and budgetary costs must indicate that the institutions initial costs will not be in excess of 130 of the mean for the type to which it is being advanced In addition each cost center will be reviewed in terms of its relationship to the mean of other institutions in that category
C Recommended Student Populations Equivalent FullTime
Students Fall Quarter
This portion was deleted and deferred for further consider tion
D Community Interest
Documentation must be included which clearly indicates i volvement of local constituencies and educational civic and pi litical groups in the formulation of the plan for change
2 Impact on Other Institutions System and Private
The anticipated effects of the change upon enrollment pro jections student composition and future development of othe educational institutions in the service area shall receive careft deliberation Documentation should include presentations froi these other institutions indicating their active participation in the development of the plan for change
3 Curricula Structure
Planning shall include a careful review of all educational pro grams of the institution and statements of program changes am proposed programs to be initiated Detailed information should be provided relative to a enrollment projections in each pro posed program b faculty and staff requirements c need for library resources to support the program and d explicit interfacing between programs and proposed mission of the institution
4 Physical Plant Requirements
In any proposed major change in the mission and status of a System institution facility requirements and support personnel must be integrated into all planning activities An analysis of facility needs either modification of existing plant or new construction must be submitted which projects a immediate modification of plant b new facility needs as soon as practical and c new facility needs as a planned longterm minimum ten years development phase
5 Budgetary Planning
Alteration in budgetary resources required immediately upon initiation of the proposed change and projections of needs directly associated with the change in mission shall be provided for a fiveyear period These projections shall be directly related to and justified within the context of current funding procedures in the System Specific justifications and rationale shall be provided for changes in academic support student services and institutional support categories of General Operations
6 Additional Information
Other information unique to the situation being addressed by the institutions may be requested by the chancellor
B ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW COMMITTEE
Upon receipt of the proposal the chancellor shall instruct the vice chancellor to chair an Administrative Review Committee composed of the vice chancellor for academic development the vice chancellor for fiscal affairs the vice chancellor for planning the assistant vice chancellor for affirmative action and other appropriate staff This committee shall thoroughly review the feasibility of the proposal requesting additional documentation as needed to assure the technical adequacy and reasonableness of plans projections and needs For plans involving doctoral and postdoctoral level education this committee shall commission such review and evaluation by consultants from outside the System as recommended by professional associations and accreditation agencies as deemed appropriate by the committee
C ADVISORY REVIEW COMMITTEE
Upon receipt of the recommendation from the vice chancellor the chancellor may
1 Determine that it is not feasible to proceed with the proposal which will result in official notification to the president of the institution or institutions involved concerning his action
2 Establish a formal Advisory Committee whose composition shall be the vice chancellor two University System presidents two University System chief academic officers one University System chief fiscal officer and such other members as the chan

The System Summary
cellor deems appropriate for the specific situation
3 The Advisory Committee shall review all materials assembled by the Administrative Review Committee and may solicit other information deemed appropriate and relevant to their deliberations Prior to a formal recommendation to the chancellor the Advisory Committee shall meet with institutional representatives and make whatever site visits are necessary in order to fully substantiate the information submitted for its consideration The final Advisory Committee recommendation shall be submitted to the chancellor and become part of his final report to the Board of Regents
D TIMETABLE FOR INSTITUTIONAL REVIEW PROCESS
To assure all parties a timely and orderly review process the chancellor shall establish a timetable for the review process at the point in the process at which the request is made for development of the institutional review documentation Except in unusual circumstances it is expected that the chancellor would report to the Board of Regents within twelve months of receipt of the institutions formal submission of the review documentation
Through an agenda item the Regents were told
With appropriate modifications the procedures for alteration of mission and status of a University System institution may also be utilized to determine the feasibility of 1 adding a new unit to the System including acceptance of an existing institutionpublic or private into the System or 2 changing the nonresidential status of an institution to residential status or to contribute to a decision relating to the closing of an institution or the merger of institutions
A nonresidential institution requesting a change of status to residential will have that request considered only if its projections indicate that the optimum enrollment indicated in
deferred portion for its institutional type can be generated within its service area or that other unique factors exist in the area served by the institution that would clearly justify the addition of dormitories
An institutions classification status may be subject to review when the EFT enrollment falls 25 percent below the minimum recommended indicated in deferred portion for its current classification A similar review of status may be undertaken when an institutions mean per EFT student cost exceeds 150 percent of the mean for the appropriate institutional type If the review of the institutions status initiated as the result of one or both of these circumstances indicates that the institution is no longer operating at an efficient level consideration will be given to a recommendation that the institution be reorganized as to type or merged with another institution or closed

been requested to be conducted at the plants of the firms
The general practice to accommodate such requests would be for the college to execute a formal agreement with the business or industry for the offering of this service If such programs were to be offered at business or industrial sites the academic standards for admission etc would be equivalent to those maintained for oncampus offerings
Dr Propst told the Regents that there are some problems involved with the offering of complete degree programs offcampus He said however that the national trend for businesses and industries to become involved in the educational enterprise is rapidly advancing
The acting vice chancellorvice chancellor for academic development added
It is thought that a minimum of 10 billion is spent per year in this country by businesses and industries in sponsoring these educational enterprise activities
The businesses and industries would prefer that the colleges and universities offer this work degree programs but if the higher education institutions do not offer the degree programs as needed by business and industrial firms these firms will establish their own educational activities
There are some colleges and universities in the country that are already offering degrees at the industrial site or the business site But I would have to say that as far as the number of universities and colleges that we have in this country it would be minimal at this point
Statements by Board Members
Regent Marie W Dodd said that the Board of Regents
Education Committee of which she is chairperson had on the previous day recommended that the Boards staff study the entire matter of complete degree programs offcampus She said the recommendation was for the study to take into consideration current policy with attention to residency hours and provisions on territories in which institutions are authorized to offer degree programs
If we do proceed with any sort of program such as this complete degree programs offcampus it should be an excellent program Regent Dodd added
Regent Erwin A Friedman said he felt that the study should be expanded to include more than complete degree programs offcampus for businesses and industries The whole idea of nontraditional delivery modes I think is worthy of an indepth study by the Board of Regents staff however the chancellor would want to structure it he said
Regent Elridge W McMillan said he felt that if University System institutions do not provide the degree programs requested by businesses and industries other institutions will provide the programs
Regent Sidney O Smith Jr said he felt that the study may indicate that the Regents ought to consider having a policy to facilitate the offering of degrees by University System institutions at business and industrial establishments But such a policy he added should not be absolute in the sense that they students in the programs offered at the business and industrial establishments never would show up at the degreegranting institutions
Regent Lamar R Plunkett the Board of Regents chairman said the Southern Regional Education Board SREB has done some work similar to that that will be involved in the Board of Regents staff study He suggested that the Boards staff obtain and review the SREB information
Four New Majors Continued from Front Cover
Biblical literature the Regents were told through agenda material The study of religion will be approached both analytically and descriptively the Regents were told
The agenda material also indicated
The program does not claim to prepare a student for the ministry nor does it envision itself in any way as a substitute for programs offered by denominationally oriented theological schools and seminaries The majority of the programs graduates will assume teaching positions in preparatory schools and colleges or universities The program will also prepare students for further graduate work in philosophy and religion
Currently there is only one other graduate degree program in religion offered in Georgia This program is offered by Emory University
It is expected that 11 students will be enrolled in the new program by its third year of operation and that minority enrollment will constitute approximately 25 percent of the programs total enrollment Enrollment in undergraduate religion courses at the University is approximately 1000 students per year
Columbus College received authorization to offer a major
in special education speechlanguage pathology under the institutions existing Master of Education degree program effective beginning in the 1981 winter quarter
The newly authorized program will build upon the existing baccalaureate degree program in communicative disorders The curriculum has been designed to meet or to exceed the requirements for state licensure as a speech pathologist for state teacher certification at the SLP5 level and for the Certificate of Clinical Competence awarded by the American Speech and Hearing Association agenda material considered by the Regents indicated
The Regents were told through agenda material that
The Georgia Speech and Hearing Association conducted a needs study during the 197879 academic year in Georgias 159 counties The study concluded that more than 20000 children are not receiving clinical services consistent with their handicapped conditions To serve these children will require nearly 400 additional speechlanguage pathologists with qualifications for certification to practice in the public schools During 197879 Georgias universities and colleges produced only 83 graduates in the fields of communicative disorders
Opportunities for appropriate clinical experiences will be provided through community agencies
6
The System Summary
It is anticipated that 12 students will be enrolled in the program during its first year of operation and that 32 students will be enrolled by the third year It is also anticipated that minority enrollment will constitute 18 percent of the programs total enrollment
Additional funding required for the implementation and operation of this program will be provided by the institution internally
Valdosta State College received authorization to offer a major in special educationspeech correction under the institutions existing Bachelor of Science in Education degree program and a major in special educationspeech pathology under the existing Master of Education degree program effective beginning in the 1981 spring quarter
The baccalaureate degree program is intended to develop skills required in the diagnosis and treatment of individuals displaying a variety of speech and language disorders It is designed to meet the general education and preprofessional education guidelines recommended by the American Speech and Hearing Association ASHA and the requirements for state teacher certification at the SLP4 level
The masters degree program will build upon the undergraduate curriculum and is designed to meet or to exceed the requirements prescribed by ASHA for the Certificate of Clinical Competence and to meet the requirements for state teacher certification at the SLP5 level and for state licensure State licensure as a requirement for employment as a speech pathologist became a part of state law in 1974
According to an agenda item reviewed by the Regents
There are currently two accredited masters degreelevel programs in speech pathology operative in Georgiaat the University of Georgia and Emory University
The need for trained speech pathologists throughout the state is acute A needs survey conducted by Valdosta State College identified speech therapy and pathology as third among fourteen critical need areas of special education in south Georgia
The facilities of a number of community agencies in Val

State College with a project budget of 2500000 was authorized
Other actions taken in connection with this project include authorization for the tentative appointment of Gunn and Meyerhoff Savannah as the architect to prepare preliminary plans and specifications for this project acceptance of the offer of the City of Savannah to provide approximately four acres of land located in the Battlefield Park Development project to be used as the site of the Continuing Education Center acceptance of this land without charge by fee simple deed subject to negotiating an acceptable memorandum of understanding between the Board of Regents and the City of Savannah acceptance of two conditions A and C and rejection of two conditions B and D proposed in a resolution adopted by the City Council of Savannah in October 1980
The text of the City Councils resolution as it was presented to the Board of Regents is
Land for Continuing Education Center Recommend that four acres of land behind the parking lot serving the Visitors Center be made available to the Board of Regents to construct a Continuing Educational Center The land has a value of approximately 32500 per acre The total estimated value of the tract in question therefore is 130000 Recommend that the City provide the land for the following considerations
A Architectural design of the buildings placed on the site must be visually compatible with the development plan for the area and architectural character of the buildings now existing or that will be placed in the project area
B If legally possible we require that the land will revert to the City when it ceases to be used for a Continuing Education Center
C That the 400seat auditorium that is to be placed in the Center be available for use by the City when not being used by the Center
D The Board of Regents construct access to the facility by extending Fahm Street through to the site subject to the necessary rightofway for such extension being donated by the railroad
Construction of the Continuing Education Center on the site recommended is consistent with the master plan for the Battlefield Park development project and will help stimulate further development within the project area We arc informed that the first building for the Continuing Education Center will contain 40000 square feet of floor space and cost between 25 and 3 million Recommend approval
The Board of Regents rejected Condition B of the resolution because Phase I of the new facility would be valued at 2500000 and would far exceed the value of the land which is approximately 130000 The Board could not agree to a reverter on the land when it would carry with it improvements far exceeding the value of the land which the Board cannot legally give away a staffprepared agenda item indicated
Condition D of the resolution was rejected because it is the policy of the Board to utilize the services of the State Department of Transportation for design and construction of streets roads and parking lots on property adjacent to and on Board of Regents property We recommend that this condition be changed to state that the Board of Regents will use its best offices to assist the City of Savannah in securing the improvements to the Battlefield Park Development in connection with the development of the Continuing Education Center building project by the Board of Regents the agenda item indicated
We also recommend that the Board negotiate in the mem
orandum of understanding an arrangement whereby the project budget for the Continuing Education CenterPhase I can contribute to the City of Savannah an appropriate share for the extension of utilities to the site of the project
The memorandum of understanding will be submitted to the Board of Regents for approval and will be subject to review by the Attorney General
Funds for construction of this project are not now available but a request for such funds has been included in the 198081 fiscal year supplemental state appropriation request The City of Savannah was to be advised that construction funds were not available and were subject to future legislative appropriation and Board allocation

quality of life of citizens in isolated areas of the State must be considered Quality and institutional effectiveness can be determined by such program aspects as performance of graduates program standards course offerings characteristics of the faculty efficiency in the operation of equipment and facilities etc
B Expenditure Per EFT Student
The provision of educational services provided by an institution shall be evaluated in terms of costs relative to other System institutions
1 The best available indicator of an institutions cost effectiveness is its relation to the mean per EFT student cost which is provided for each type of institution
2 In order for an institutions classification to be advanced projections of the EFT student enrollment and budgetary costs must indicate that the institutions initial costs will not be in excess of 130 percent of the mean for the type to which it is being advanced In addition each cost center will be reviewed in terms of its relationship to the mean of other institutions in that category
C Recommended Student Populations Equivalent FullTime Students Fall Quarter
Enrollment will be only one of many factors to be considered in determining the feasibility of the alteration of mission and status of an institution The following enrollment figures will not apply to those specialpurpose institutions which because of the nature of their purposes cannot be expected to attain the enrollments indicated
The levels of Equivalent FullTime enrollment for the minimally effective operation of the three types of institutions are
Type I Universities 7500
Type II Senior Colleges 2000
Type III Junior Colleges 500
The levels of Equivalent FullTime enrollment for the optimally effective operation of the three types of institutions are
Type I Universities 12000 and over
Type II Senior Colleges 6000 and over
Type III Junior Colleges 2000 and over
To be considered for advancement in type an institution should have an Equivalent FullTime enrollment which exceeds by 25 percent the optimally effective enrollment for its current type
D Community Interest
Documentation must be included which clearly indicates involvement of local constituencies and educational civic and political groups in the formulation of the plan for change
2 Impact on Other Institutions System and Private
The anticipated effects of the change upon enrollment projections student composition and future development of other educational institutions in the service area shall receive careful deliberation Documentation should include presentations from these other institutions indicating their active participation in the development of the plan for change
3 Curricula Structure
Planning shall include a careful review of all educational programs of the institution and statements of program changes and proposed programs to be initiated Detailed information should be provided relative to a enrollment projections in each proposed program b faculty and staff requirements c need for library resources to support the program and d explicit interfacing between programs and proposed mission of the institution
4 Physical Plant Requirements
In any proposed major change in the mission and status of a System institution facility requirements and support personnel must be integrated into all planning activities An analysis of facility needs either modification of existing plant or new construction must be submitted which projects a immediate modification of plant b new facility needs as soon as practical and c new facility needs as a planned longterm minimum ten years development phase

The System Summary
5 Budgetary Planning
Alteration in budgetary resources required immediately upon initiation of the proposed change and projections of needs directly associated with the change in mission shall be provided for a fiveyear period These projections shall be directly related to and justified within the context of current funding procedures in the System Specific justifications and rationale shall be provided for changes in academic support student services and institutional support categories of General Operations
6 Additional Information
Other information unique to the situation being addressed by the institutions may be requested by the chancellor
B ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW COMMITTEE
Upon receipt of the proposal the chancellor shall instruct the vice chancellor to chair an Administrative Review Committee composed of the vice chancellor for academic development the vice chancellor for fiscal affairs the vice chancellor for planning the assistant vice chancellor for affirmative action and other appropriate staff This committee shall thoroughly review the feasibility of the proposal requesting additional documentation as needed to assure the technical adequacy and reasonableness of plans projections and needs For plans involving doctoral and postdoctoral level education this committee shall commission such review and evaluation by consultants from outside the System as recommended by professional associations and accreditation agencies as deemed appropriate by the committee
C ADVISORY REVIEW COMMITTEE
Upon receipt of the recommendation from the vice chancellor the chancellor may
1 Determine that it is not feasible to proceed with the proposal which will result in official notification to the president of the institution or institutions involved concerning his action
2 Establish a formal Advisory Committee whose composition shall be the vice chancellor two University System presidents two University System chief academic officers one University System chief fiscal officer and such other members as the chancellor deems appropriate for the specific situation
3 The Advisory Committee shall review all materials assembled by the Administrative Review Committee and may solicit other information deemed appropriate and relevant to their deliberations Prior to a formal recommendation to the chancellor the Advisory Committee shall meet with institutional representatives and make whatever site visits are necessary in order to fully substantiate the information submitted for its consideration The final Advisory Committee recommendation shall be submitted to the chancellor and become part of his final report to the Board of Regents
D TIMETABLE FOR INSTITUTIONAL REVIEW PROCESS
To assure all parties a timely and orderly review process the chancellor shall establish a timetable for the review process at the point in the process at which the request is made for development of the institutional review documentation Except in unusual circumstances it is expected that the chancellor would report to the Board of Regents within twelve months of receipt of the institutions formal submission of the review documentation
Through an agenda item the Regents were told at the September meeting
With appropriate modifications the procedures for alteration of mission and status of a University System institution may also be utilized to determine the feasibility of 1 adding a new unit to the System including acceptance of an existing institution public or private into the System or 2 changing the nonresidential status of an institution to residential status or to contribute to a decision relating to the closing of an institution or the merger of institutions
A nonresidential institution requesting a change of status
to residential will have that request considered only if its projections indicate that the optimum enrollment for its institutional type can be generated within its service area or that other unique factors exist in the area served by the institution that would clearly justify the addition of dormitories
An institutions classification status may be subject to review when the EFT enrollment falls 25 percent below the minimum recommended for its current classification A similar review of status may be undertaken when an institutions mean per EFT student cost exceeds 150 percent of the mean for the appropriate institutional type If the review of the institutions status initiated as the result of one or both of these circumstances indicates that the institution is no longer operating at an efficient level consideration will be given to a recommendation that the institution be reorganized as to type or merged with another institution or closed
Text of Deferred Replaced Section
The original text of the Recommended Student Populations section of the Procedures statement which was deferred in September and replaced with the section adopted in December was
AlC Recommended Student Populations Equivalent FullTime Students Fad Quarter
Minimum Optimum

Type I Universities 7500 12000
Type II Senior Colleges 1500 5000
Type III Junior Colleges 400 1500
In order for an institutions classification to be advanced it should have current enrollment to meet the minimum EFT limits for the type to which it is being advanced
The Procedures statement was recommended to the Board of Regents by Chancellor Vernon Crawford The recommendation was based partially on the work of a University System Task Force on Optimal Distribution of Institutions Within the University System An ad hoc group made up of several members of the Task Force on Optimal Distribution of Institutions Within the University System and with George A Christenberry as chairman was asked to consider the Recommended Student Populations section that was deferred in September With some minor modifications which are included in the Recommended Student Populations section adopted in December the chancellor recommends approval of the revised section developed by this ad hoc group the Regents were told through an agenda item at the December meeting
Dr Christenberry was acting vice chancellor on leave from the position of president of Augusta College when the Task Force conducted its work over a period of several months that began early in 1980 He was chairman of the Task Force He returned to the presidency of Augusta College on July 1
Without Prejudice Stipulated
Minimally and optimally effective enrollments for University System institutions were adopted by the Board of Regents at the December 910 meeting without prejudice to a request by Clayton Junior College to be studied for possible conversion to a senior college

termination of whether there will be a change in the type of an institution Clayton Junior Colleges request was submitted in a letter to Chancellor Vernon Crawford prior to the December meeting of the Board of Regents
H Dean Propst acting vice chancellorvice chancellor for academic development asked the Board in December to adopt the minimally and optimally effective enrollments without prejudice to the study for possible senior college status that has already been requested by Clayton Junior College No opposition to Dr Propsts proposal was indicated
The request for the study of Clayton tor possible senior college status was made President Harry S Downs of that institution wrote in a letter dated October 7 to Chancellor Crawford in response to action taken by the Board of Regents at its September meeting That action included adoption of all but one section of a statement entitled Procedures for Determining the Feasibility of Altering the Mission and Status of an Institution of the University System
The Procedures statement sections adopted by the Board in September specify that the first step to be taken by an institution seeking to change its type is the transmittal of a letter by the president to the chancellor Types of institutions of the University System are universities senior colleges junior colleges
The section that was not adopted by the Board in September entitled Recommended Student Populations Equivalent FullTime Students Fall Quarter was deferred for further study It set forth both minimally effective enrollments and optimally effective enrollments for universities for senior colleges and for junior colleges The minimally effective enrollments were designated as a major factor in determination of whether there would be a change in the mission and status of an institution
The Recommended Student Populations section was revised during the study following the September deferral In the revised section approved by the Board of Regents in December the majority of the minimally and optimally effective enrollments were increased and the enrollment measure to be used in considering advancement of an institution in type was changed from minimally effective enrollment to optimally effective enrollment
Clayton Junior Colleges Equivalent FullTime enrollment for the 1980 fall quarter was 2142
The Recommended Student Populations section as presented and deferred in September stipulated that an institution seeking a change in classification level or type should have current enrollment to meet the minimum Equivalent FullTime enrollment limit for the type of institution to which it is being advanced The use of that enrollment factor alone rigidly applied would have required Clayton Junior College as well as any other junior college to have an Equivalent FullTime enrollment of 1500 the minimum Equivalent FullTime enrollment limit stipulated at that time for a senior college to go up to senior college status
The Recommended Student Populations section as revised and adopted in December stipulates that an institution seeking advancement in type should have an Equivalent FullTime enrollment which exceeds by 25 percent the optimally effective enrollment for its current type If the enrollment procedure were the only criterion considered and
were applied rigidly in determination of advancement of an institution in type this would require Clayton Junior College as well as any other junior college to have at least 2500 Equivalent FullTime students to advance to senior college status In the adopted section the optimal Equivalent FullTime enrollment for junior colleges is 2000 or more
The enrollment level specified for an institution is not the only factor to be considered in determining whether an institutions mission and status will be changed In adopting the Recommended Student Populations section in December the Board of Regents in following a staffprepared agenda recommendation stipulated Enrollment will be only one of many factors to be considered in determining the feasibility of the alteration of mission and status of an institution
Other wording in the Procedures statement indicates that some flexibility will prevail in the evaluation of an institutions Equivalent FullTime enrollment as a factor in the determination of whether the institutions mission and status will be changed
Enrollments Area Population Cited
In requesting in the letter dated October 7 that Clayton Junior College be considered for elevation to senior college status President Downs wrote Chancellor Crawford
As you know the fall quarter enrollment of Clayton Junior College has been at approximately the 3000 mark for the last five years with an Equivalent FullTime enrollment between 1900 and 2000 The College has within easy commuting range a population in excess of 300000 and there is seemingly an increasing interest on the part of citizens of our community to earn a baccalaureate degree at a place near their homes
Chancellor Crawford in an October letter responding to President Downss letter said The change in institutional status which you proposed will be considered
Review Related to Two Board Actions
Chancellor Crawfords authorization for the review of Clayton Junior College is the result of two actions taken by the Board of Regents in September 1980 1 the adoption of Procedures for Determining the Feasibility of Altering the Mission and Status of an Institution of the University System except the Recommended Student Populations section deferred in September and adopted in revised form in December and 2 adoption of a requirement that a periodic comprehensive review of all institutions of the University System be conducted through the Chancellors Office at least every five years
The requirement for the periodic review of each institution provides that one of several outcomes of such a review may be alteration of the mission and status of the institution To implement this policy the requirement of periodic review of all institutions at least every five years we will review six or seven institutions every year Chancellor Crawford wrote President Downs Clayton Junior College will be in the first group
The Chancellor has requested H Dean Propst to work out the details of the review of Clayton Junior College and to initiate the review as soon as possible Dr Propst is serving as vice chancellor for academic development and as acting vice chancellor

The System Summary
Kell Hall Continued from Front Cover study was also approved
This project will consist of the remodeling of Kell Hall in several phases extending over a period of a number of years according to Frank C Dunham the University Systems vice chancellor for facilities The projected project budget for all phases of the project will be in excess of 12000000
The Board of Regents in June 1979 authorized in principle the remodeling of Kell Hall At that time Georgia State University was requested to develop a master plan for the utilization of the building
The Regents were told through an agenda item prepared for the December 910 meeting
Kell Hall which is believed to have been constructed in the mid1920s and originally designed as a garage contains approximately 128000 square feet of space It has been used for many years as the principal science building at Georgia State The growth of the institution and the expanding need for adequate teaching facilities in the sciences together with the inadequate conditions in this building require that the facility be remodeled as soon as possible
During the past year Georgia State University has conducted an inhouse study of the plan for the utilization of Kell Hall pursuant to the Boards request in June 1979 The institution recommends the remodeling of the upper three floors of the ClassroomPlazaAcademic Building which is adjacent to Kell Hall to house the laboratories of the sciences area The renovated Kell Hall will house the College of Arts and Sciences
Georgia State faculty members have gone as far as they can with the inhouse study the study will be continued by the architect appointed by the Board of Regents in December The study which is expected to extend over a threemonth period will permit the architect and Georgia State to continue to develop a plan whereby it will be possible to remodel portions of the building on an incremental basis and still have a completely integrated overall facility when all of the remodeling is complete
The project will be handled in phases Mr Dunham told the Regents because the building cannot be vacated due to inadequate space at Georgia State to permit the remodeling of the entire structure at one time Also he added financing would not be available at one time for the entire project Mr Dunham anticipates that the remodeling will be accomplished similar to the longrange remodeling program of the Eugene Talmadge Memorial Hospital at the Medical College of Georgia For the last several years individual renovation projects at the Hospital have been performed as space and funds became available
Mr Dunham also told the Regents
The first phase of the project which will be the remodeling of the ClassroomPlazaAcademic building is expected to have a project budget of at least 3500000 A request to the Legislature for funds for the first phase will be submitted in the fall of 1981 Funds for subsequent phases will be requested in future years
The next action relating to this project to be recommended to the Board of Regents will be for the design of the first phase of the project and the tentative appointment of an architect to prepare preliminary plans for the project
Cost S2833
13000 Copies
Preliminary Plans
Preliminary plans for the Eighth Floor South Nursing Unit project for the Eugene Talmadge Memorial Hospital at the Medical College of Georgia with a project budget of 1173153 were approved
The execution of an architectural contract with William HughesRobert Beattie Augusta for the development of final plans and specifications for this project was also approved
The Board of Regents authorized this project in April 1979 as part of the continuing renovation of the Eugene Talmadge Memorial Hospital The renovation will bring the Hospital into compliance with fire code requirements as approved by the State Fire Marshal the Regents were told through staffprepared agenda material
Project Budget Increases
An increase of 225000 in the project budget of the Renovation of Harrison Dormitory project at the Georgia Institute of Technology to a new total of 1125000 was authorized
In other action taken in connection with this project the Board of Regents approved the use of the following funds for financing this project Georgia Tech Auxiliary Enterprise Reserve 22973 Georgia Tech Auxiliary Enterprise Surplus 351253 Georgia Tech Clark Howell Endowment 508774 Georgia Department of Transportation Funds for Widening of Interstate Highway 7585 242000
The project was authorized by the Board of Regents in November 1980 with a project budget of 900000 The increase in the project budget is based on an update of the projected cost by the architect
An increase of 177116 in the project budget of the PolicePublic SafetyPersonnel Building project for the Georgia Institute of Technology to a new total of 677116 was authorized
Other actions taken in connection with this project include authorization for the use of 677116 in the form of interest income from the Lettie Pate Evans Trust Fund for the construction of this project authorization for the execution of a construction contract with Living Systems Construction Company Inc at a contract amount of 575583
The Board of Regents authorized the design of this project in July 1980 and approved the construction of this project with a project budget of 500000 in October 1980
An increase of 215442 in the project budget of the Academic Building project at Gordon Junior College to a new total of 1669763 was authorized
Other actions by the Board of Regents pertaining to this project included authorization for the use of 144000 in unused construction contingency funds from the 197879 fiscal year supplemental state appropriation for the construction of this project authorization for the transfer of 71442 in unobligated funds from the Student Center Phase I project at the University of Georgia to the Academic Building project
The Board of Regents authorized this project in March 1979 and approved preliminary plans for the project with a project budget of 1454321 in May 1979
The increase in the project budget is based on the architects estimate of the construction cost as a result of the 18month delay in proceedings the Regents were told

Core Curriculum Continued from Front Cover
set forth in the statement adopted by the Board at the December 910 meeting
At the September 1979 meeting the Regents were told that the University System Transfer of Credit Committee at its meeting on June 5 1979 was unanimous in its reaffirmation of the Core Curriculum as described in the Registrars Handbook as of July 1 1972 and as has been operative continuously since that date The Regents were also told at the same time that the University System Advisory Council at a meeting on August 7 1979 supported the position of the University System Transfer of Credit Committee
At the December 910 meeting the Regents were told
The Core Curriculum of the University System of Georgia was established for the general purpose of aiding and facilitating the educational progress of students as they pursue baccalaureate degrees within and among the units of the University System In particular it is an effort to deal effectively with the increased mobility ot the student population increased number and complexity of major fields of study offered by senior units and the increased problems relating to transfer of credits among units of the University System
During the several years of its operation the Core Curriculum has been revised from time to time with the Uni
versity System Transfer of Credit Committee serving as the medium through which the improvements and changes were effected Revisions in any of the requirements have been recommended by the appropriate academic committees of the University System Advisory Council for consideration by the University System Transfer of Credit Committee and for approval by the University System Advisory Council
The basic structure of the Core Curriculum has remained essentially the same from the beginning The Core Curriculum approved by the University System Advisory Council in 1967 provided for 60 quarter credit hours in general education 20 in humanities 20 in mathematics and natural sciences and 20 in social sciences and 30 quarter credit hours in the major field of study
