The System Summary
Actions on Academic Programs Brought 9 Additions 4 Drops
Requests for implementation of nine new academic programs and for discontinuance of four programs were approved by the Board of Regents at the February 89 meeting
New Programs
The new programs were authorized for the University of Georgia Valdosta State College West Georgia College and Kennesaw College
The University of Georgia was given approval to add in the 1983 fall quarter a major in physical education under the existing Doctor of Philosophy degree
This major the Regents were told through an agenda item is needed as an alternative to the Doctor of Education degree major in physical education It is designed the agenda item indicated to provide students more extensive training and experience in research to increase the flexibility in designing the program of study to allow a greater degree of specialization and to strengthen the competitive position of the Department of Physical Education in recruiting highquality faculty and graduate students
Enrollment in the newly authorized major is projected to be 1518 students
Each year the Department of Physical Education receives inquiries from students interested in pursuing a research degree at the University of Georgia according to the agenda item These students are often not interested in obtaining a professional degree like the Doctor of Education Many other graduate students who enter the Doctor of Education program in physical education at the University of Georgia would much prefer a Doctor of Philosophy
The newly authorized major will strengthen the graduate program overall and will enable the University of Georgia to attract minorities and women as students and faculty the agenda item indicated
Valdosta State College was authorized to add six teaching fieldsbiology business education early childhood education English mathematics and social studiesunder the existing Education Specialist degree
These additions will become effective in the 1983 spring quarter
Surveys conducted in the Valdosta State College area indicated that these programs can provide a needed service to the teachers of the area within the limited resources of the institution according to an agenda item
ihe agenda materials presented to the Regents also indicated
The combined enrollment for the six newly authorized teaching fields will be slightly more than 100 graduate
students
Each program will be made up of a 20hour core of advanced courses in research foundations of education curriculum and educational psychology and 2530 hours of advanced courses in the teaching area
The minority enrollment for the newly authorized programs is expected to be 1015 percent which is in keeping
with the minority enrollment for existing graduate programs
West Georgia College was voted approval to add a major in the teaching field of reading under the existing Education Specialist degree effective beginning in the 1983 spring quarter
With the addition of this program West Georgia College will offer specialist training in all of the major areas of teacher certification according to an agenda item reviewed by the Regents
The agenda material also indicated
The newly authorized program will be made up of 2530 hours of readingcontent courses with additional courses from educational psychology foundations curriculum and research
Projected enrollments for the program are 12 students in 198384 15 students in 198485 and 18 students in 198586
It is anticipated that 13 percent of the enrollment in the program will be minority students
Kennesaw College was given approval to implement in the 1984 fall quarter a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree program
This program will provide the education and clinical experience necessary for entering students or practicing licensed nurses
The Colleges associate degree program in nursing which in the past 12 years produced approximately 600 graduates will be continued the Regents were informed through an agenda item
The graduates of the associate degree program have had good scores on licensing examinations and they have performed well in practice settings the agenda item indicated
According to the proposal presented to the Regents the size of the graduating class in the associate degree program will be reduced to approximately 35 per year however the addition of the bachelors degree program will result in a net increase of graduates in nursing
Some of the particulars of the Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree program as set forth in the agenda item are
According to Kennesaw College President Betty Siegel the program would meet the need for a larger number of nurses for an expanding health and medical care system in the northwest part of the state and the northern part of the Atlanta metropolitan area
Eight faculty members will be required for the program three to be transferred from the associate degree program and five to be added at a cost of approximately 160000 for the five positions when the thirdyear and fourthyear courses of the baccalaureate program are implemented
A onetime allocation of 50000 is needed to assure the planning and beginning resources necessary for the development and initiation of the program
The program should have a positive effect on enrollment of minority students as there is no other program in nursing on the baccalaureate level in the northwest part of the state

IN MEMORIAMROBERT O ARNOLD
The death of former Regent Robert O Arnold has taken from this life an outstanding Georgian a distinguished former member and chairman of this Board and a dedicated public servant in the truest sense of this undervalued term
In a Resolution adopted by the Board of Regents on July 30 1963 following his retirement from the Board it was said Mr Arnold is held in highest affection and esteem by the members of the Board of Regents for his honesty for his unusual business acumen for his lovable character for his keen sense of humor and for his straightforward manner in dealings with others In trying and difficult situations that have confronted the Board of Regents from time to time Mr Arnold has always acted with dignity and wisdom often averting a crucial problem with his spontaneous and genial wit
During his 14 years of exemplary service as a member of this Board 12 years of which he served as chairman Regent Arnold made a lasting impact on the University System and higher education in Georgia We are especially grateful for his leadership during times of stress and turmoil in the early 1960s Largely because of his efforts the Board of Regents maintained the respect and support of the citizens of Georgia
We express our deepest sympathy and extend our sincere condolences to his widow Mrs Frances Turner Arnold to whom he was so devoted to the members of his family and to his many friends and admirers who loved and respected him for the example set by his tireless devotion to the service of others
IN MEMORIAMDR JOHN O EIDSON
Let us pause at this time to honor the memory of our beloved friend and former colleague Dr John Olin Eidson president emeritus of Georgia Southern College who de
parted this life on the twentyseventh day of January 1983 The example of his personal and professional life was a legacy to us all
On July 1 1976 he completed a career of 40 years of devoted service to the University System of Georgia having served as a faculty member and dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Georgia president of Georgia Southern College and vice chancellor of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia
He was a warm friendly and compassionate man who was blessed with a rare combination of intellect integrity judgment dedication humor and energy Employing these talents he compiled a record of enduring service to his country his profession his community his church and the University System
Every man composes his own eulogy during the days of his life To the extent that he touches another his life is a prelude to history John Eidson touched and enriched the lives of thousands from all segments of our society
We express our deep regret at his passing our sympathy to Mrs Eidson and the other members of his family with the assurance that his contributions to academia will forever stand high in the annals and records of the Board of Regents and the institutions of the University System in which he served

Report Recommends wA More Direct Hand for Board
The leadership role of the Board of Regents in the University System is dealt with in a section of a report developed by the Coordinating Committee of a Statewide Needs Assessment for Public Higher Education
Titled The Eighties and Beyond A Commitment to Excellence the report was adopted by the Board of Regents at the February 89 meeting for use as a planning document
The Leadership section includes an introductory statement and six sets of recommendations
Introductory Statement
The full text of the introductory statement is
A major strength of the University System is its policymaking Board of Regents with governing authority for all public junior colleges with the exception of DeKalb Community College senior colleges and universities Working through a single executive officer the Chancellor the Board of Regents is in a position to exercise the discipline required to utilize available resources in the most efficient and effective manner possible
The governing structure allows the type of central coordination that will best serve the interests of the state That coordination can be improved by the development of specific statements of missions for each of the System institutions which both define and clarify the relationship of the individual institution to its service area and its relationship with the University System as a whole
The Board of Regents must ensure that institutional missions are appropriately balanced between independence and interdependence and that they are clearly understood by those whose responsibility is the fulfillment of the missions
Recommendations
The full text of the recommendations is
The Coordinating Committee has examined the nature of the leadership that the Board of Regents has and continues to provide From that examination the Committee recommends
that the Board set priorities for program and in
stitutional development within the University System and that these priorities be made known to its various constituencies that each System institution set its priorities within the parameters of System priorities and its approved mission
that the Board of Regents which has heretofore approved institutional missions in broad outline take a more direct hand in the assignment of certain programmatic and other responsibilities to the various institutions that each institution be required to prepare a mission statement which specifically delineates its area of responsibilities goals and methodology for achieving these goals that the Board review and approve these statements making the alterations it finds necessary to ensure that institutional missions provide integral support for the goals of the University System as a whole that the Board foster a clear understanding among its institutions and its external constituencies of the integrative nature of the University System that has served the state so well in public higher education
that the Board continue to delegate to each unit of the University System such autonomy of operation that will best allow it to maintain the highest standards of academic excellence in the accomplishment of its mission that the Board encourage diversity of institutional development recognizing that policy flexibility in many areas is required for such development
that the Board readdress the problem of institutional service areas refining the guidelines in such a way that its various institutions will not engage in unhealthy competition within overlapping areas of the state that the Board examine with particular care the Atlanta metropolitan area in this regard since a multiplicity of institutions is available to serve the diverse needs of this center of dense population
that the Board exert its influence to ensure that the offering of associate degree programs at selected vocationaltechnical schools in the state is congruent with the provisions of the 1982 Constitution
that the Board of Regents reaffirm its commitment to the elimination of racial segregation and sexual discrimination from public higher education in the state O Torbitt Ivey Jr chairman of the Board of Regents

The System Summarv
Chancellor Officially Ends Reviews of ChangeofStatus Requests of 4 Institutions
The consideration of requests of four University System institutions for higher status has been called off officially by Chancellor Vernon Crawford
Notification of this action was conveyed in letters dated February 14 to Presidents of the institutions involved Dale W Lick of Georgia Southern College Hugh C Bailey of Valdosta State College Maurice K Townsend of West Georgia College and Harry S Downs of Clayton Junior College
Georgia Southern College Valdosta State College and West Georgia College requested change from senior college status to university status Clayton Junior College sought change to senior college status The requests for higher status were made under a procedure adopted by the Board of Regents in September 1980 and December 1980
The requests each of which included a Review Documentationvoluminous comprehensive information on the institution in its present status and on the institutions anticipated role and scope under the target statushad been in the Chancellors Office for about a year Chancellor Crawford had indicated to the Presidents of the institutions in September 1981 that his recommendations to the Board of Regents on the requests would be deferred until after completion of a Statewide Needs Assessment of Public Higher Education
The initial timetable established for the three senior colleges provided for Review Documentations to be submitted to Chancellor Crawford by January 11982 and for the Chancellor to make his recommendations on the changeofstatus requests to the Board of Regents by December 8 1982 In a September 17 1981 memorandum the Chancellor notified the Presidents that the deadline for submitting Review Documentations would be delayed three months to April 1 The delay was attributed to the Chancellors intent to review the needs assessment report which was not expected to be completed before the end of 1982 before making his recommendations to the Board of Regents on the changeofstatus requests
The initial timetable established for Clayton Junior College provided for submission of Review Documentation by October 11981 and for the Chancellor to make his recommendation on the changeofstatus request to the Board of Regents by October 1 1982 The review of that institutions request also was affected the same as were the requests of the universities by the timing of the completion of the needs assessment report
The report on the Statewide Needs Assessment for Public Higher Education was presented to the Board of Regents at a meeting on February 9 and it was adopted by the Board for use as a planning guide It includes a recommendation that the present structure of the University System be kept intactthat no change of status of any existing institution be authorized and that no new institution be established
Chancellor Crawford asked for interpretation of the nature oi the needs assessment reports recommendation concerning status of institutions He said the interpretation was vital in view of the fact that the Board adopted the needs assessment
report only for use as a planning guide and of the fact that pending applications for change of status of four institutions were submitted under changeofstatus procedures formerly approved by the Board The Board did not respond with a vote however individual statements of Board Chairman O Torbitt Ivey Jr and a number of other Board members reflected unchallenged consensus that the recommendation in the needs assessment report that there be no change in status of any University System institution should be applied in the disposition of the pending changeofstatus requests of institutions
Chancellors February 14 Letters
In his February 14 letters the Chancellor told the Presidents that his decision to terminate consideration of the requests reflected a recommendation of the Administrative Review Committee that reviewed the applications for change of status of the institutions Vice Chancellor H Dean Propst served as chairman of the Administrative Review Committee
Vice Chancellor Propst has notified me that the Administrative Review Committee recommends against further consideration at this time of the requests from the institutions for change of status the Chancellor wrote in his letter to each of the Presidents of the institutions involved Therefore I have determined that it is not feasible to proceed with your changeofstatus request and send you this official notification of that determination
The Committees recommendation the Chancellor wrote reflected the response from the Board of Regents on February 9 and also was in conformity with the changeofstatusforinstitutions procedure that was approved by the Board in September 1980 and December 1980
ChangeofStatus Procedures
The basic steps in the changeofstatus procedures are
The president of an institution seeking a change in status petitions the chancellor by letter for consideration for such change
If the chancellor responds affirmatively to that petition he initiates in consultation with the president of the institution and the Board of Regents the preparation and submission of a plan for institutional review
The chancellor forms an Administrative Review Committee to study and evaluate and to report to the chancellor on Review Documentation provided by the institution and other matters related to the request for change of status This Committee is made up of the vice chancellor as chairman the vice chancellor for academic affairs the vice chancellor for fiscal affairs the vice chancellor for planning the assistant vice chancellor for affirmative action and other appropriate staff members
Upon receiving a recommendation from the vice chancellorchairman of the Administrative Review Committee the chancellor may 1 terminate the study of the request for change of status in which case he is required to give official notification to the president of the institution involved 2 establish an Advisory Review Committee
The Advisory Review Committee continues and broad

ens as it deems appropriate the study of the request for change of status and the Committee makes a report to the chancellor
This Committee includes 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
The report of the Advisory Review Committee becomes a part of the chancellors final report to the Board of Regents
The Board of Regents makes the determination of the status of each of the institutions in the University System
The Administrative Review Committee carefully reviewed each of the four requests for change of status before the Statewide Needs Assessment for Public Higher Education was well under way Chancellor Crawford wrote the Presidents of the institutions requesting new status Vice Chancellor Propst has commented to me that the members of the Committee and other staff members who studied at least parts of the request documents were as impressed with the thoroughness of the supporting documentation as he and I were he added
The Advisory Review Committee provided for in the changeofstatus procedures was not established for any of the four requests for which the Chancellor gave notification of termination in his February 14 letters
The changeofstatus procedures remain in effect as approved by the Board of Regents in 1980
DEVELOPMENTAL STUDIES
A recommendation for eventual elimination of Developmental Studiesremedial courses at University System institutions is included in a planning document adopted by the Systems Board of Regents
The recommendation stipulates however that this goal is longrange in nature
This recommendation is included in the 45page document titled The Eighties and Beyond A Commitment to Excellence which was adopted by the Board of Regents at the February 89 meeting for use as a planning guide
The full text of the recommendation is
It is recommended that the Board of Regents adopt as a longrange goal the elimination of the need for Developmental Studies as that program is currently constituted that this goal be adopted with the understanding that the results of past deprivation of educational opportunity will long remain and that the need for compensatory education must be met so long as necessary in order not to block access to higher education for those who are capable of eliminating academic deficiencies for which they may not be totally responsible that close cooperation with the State Board of Education be made the cornerstone for achievement of this goal recognizing that academic problems are best addressed as they develop not afterthefact
The Eighties and Beyond document containing more than a hundred recommendations was developed by the Coordinating Committee of a Statewide Needs Assessment for Public Higher Education The Committee conducted a 16month study authorized by the Board of Regents in August 1981

The System Summary
In recommending retention of the University Systems present structure the report also proposes watching for possible need for change Specifically the document recommends both 1 careful monitoring of existing institutions to determine if there is need to consider closing or consolidating some of these units and 2 continual review of the Systems structure and delivery mechanisms to identify changing circumstances that might indicate the need for new institutions or new levels of institutions to serve the state

ed by authorization voted by the Board of Regents in August 1981
O Torbitt Ivey Jr Augusta chairman of the Board of Regents served also as chairman of the Coordinating Committee for the needs assessment The Committee consisted of five members of the Board of Regents four members of the Boards staff three presidents of University System institutionsone from a university one from a senior college one from a junior college
The staff of the needs assessment group was directed by Haskin R Pounds vice chancellor for research and planning for the Board of Regents The staff was made up of staff members of University System institutions primarily the four universities and of the Board of Regents
Conducted throughout Georgia the needs assessment engaged the participation of hundreds of personnel of University System institutions and leaders of the state and its communities The assessment also involved participation by several major agencies outside of the University System
Establishing QualityImprovement Priority
The needs assessment report the report recommends that the Governor the Legislature and the Board of Regents establish quality improvement as the top priority for public higher education in the state for the Eighties and beyond
An integral part of this recommendation is a request that state appropriations to the University System include special funds earmarked expressly for quality improvement
The document indicates
The success of the University System in the years ahead will be measured not in terms of growth but in terms of the level of quality by which Georgias citizens are provided with the knowledge and expertise necessary to address critical social economic and technical problems Each decision made by the Board of Regents must be governed by the principle of quality improvement The University System must develop the means of evaluating the performance of its institutions against those standards that have been identified as best nationally
Keeping Present Structure
The report recommends that the present structure of the University System not be altered by the development of additional universitylevel and baccalaureatelevel institutions or
the creation of new junior colleges
The document indicates
The Coordinating Committee concludes that it is neither educationally sound nor economically feasible to attempt to offer all programs at all levels throughout the state Because of projected enrollment stability or decline and the potential for continuing shortrangein terms of years economic difficulty it will be unwise to undertake the kind of expansion that would be involved in the creation of new junior colleges or the change in status of existing junior colleges and senior colleges to senior college or university levels respectively
Mindful of the dual obligation of the Board of Regents to meet clearly demonstrated needs and to make the most efficient use of available resources possible the Committee believes that the existing structure of the University System is adequate to meet the needs of the state through the expansion of joint and cooperative efforts of existing institutions
In recommending adherence to the present structure of the University System the report also recommends that the Board of Regents keep a watch for possible future need to change this structure
It recommends that the existing institutions of the System be carefully monitored to determine if declining enrollments and other factors indicate need to consider the closing or consolidation of some of these units
It also recommends that the structure and delivery mechanisms of the System be continually reviewed to identify those changing circumstances that might suggest the need for new institutions or new levels of institutions to serve the state
Funding by New Formula
The report recommends that the recommendations of the Study Committee on Public Higher Education Finance be fully implemented
The Study Committee consisting of members from the University System the General Assembly and the public at large developed a revised formula for use by the Board of Regents in requesting state appropriations for the University System The new formula adopted by the Study Committee in September 1982 is not so closely tied to student enrollment as was the former formula It therefore expands the number of budget items for which a specific method of requesting funding is provided Quality improvement is among the new items included in the revised formula
On the matter of fully funding the revised formula for

the University System appropriations the report document indicates
Quality does not come without cost Inflation over the past few years has threatened to decimate the progress which the University System has attained
Funds must be provided in the years ahead to maintain faculty salaries at a nationallyat a minimumregionally competitive level to bring scientific and other equipment to stateoftheart to keep abreast of increases in operating costs particularly utilities to maintain library collections at satisfactory levels both of number and quality to construct new facilities where needed and to rehabilitate buildings with dangerously long deferred maintenance
Creative Partnership
With State Board of Education
The report recommends expansion of the present base of cooperation between the Board of Regents and the State Board of Education into a wideranging creative partnership to examine issues of mutual concern and to develop strategies aimed at the development of excellence in all areas of the educational endeavor
Also recommended is the development of closer working relationships between University System institutions and local school systems
The document indicates
Standardized test scores indicate that the academic achievement of Georgias students continues to rank well below the national average at all levels Additional data suggest that the percentage of high school graduates who attend college and the overall participation rate of 1824yearolds in Georgia are among the lowest in the nation The Board of Regents and the State Board of Education should initiate a coordinated effort designed to determine the reasons for this poor achievement and low participation rate and to develop strategies for addressing the serious problems that exist
Another section of the report deals specifically with a proposed factfinding project on the rate of college attendance by high school graduates In that section is a recommendation that the Board of Regents seeking the assistance of such state agencies as might be appropriate initiate and complete a study to verify the accuracy of statistics relating to the number of high school graduates who attend a college or university those statistics rank Georgia in the bottom 10 percent of states and to identify those factors which discourage a higher participation rate
Working Partnership With Legislature
The report recommends that the Board of Regents take appropriate steps to improve the working partnership it shares with the General Assembly of Georgia
The document indicates that many participants in the 16monthlong needs assessment activity stressed a strongly perceived need for improved communication between the Board of Regents and the General Assembly of Georgia
The document continues
Certainly while the Board provides the method for achieving quality higher education in the state the Legislature pro
vides the means A working partnership is indispensable
The University System has been the beneficiary of broad public support and has enjoyed particularly in the last three decades generous funding by the states Governors and General Assemblies There has however developed over the immediate past some lack of public understanding of the System and its critical importance to the state The fate of public higher education in Georgia will be determined by the degree of completeness of that understanding and by the maintenance of a high degree of support by the Governor and the General Assembly
In a closelyrelated section under the heading Communication the report deals with general public understanding of the University System and its importance to the state and it recommends that the Board of Regents working with and through the various institutions of the System develop and direct a comprehensive program to inform the citizens of the state concerning the opportunities offered by and achievements of public higher education The recommendation also would provide for the program to be designed to make the public aware of the goals to which the University System aspires
Some of the Other Recommendations
The needs assessment report includes 115 separate recommendations many of them multifaceted and extensive background information and supportive observations The recommendations are included under a main section titled Principles and Issues and a section covering some matters of major program areas
Some of the other major recommendations are for
the expansion of the concept of cooperative programs involving universities senior colleges and junior colleges to bring to bear the total resources of the University System on immediate local needs the utilization of this concept as among other things the vehicle for meeting specific demands for undergraduate engineering engineering technology and health professions education throughout the state
the continual study of areas of the state that may be underserved by public higher education in terms of specific baccalaureatelevel programs and selected graduatelevel programs which areas may presently include the southeastern sectorBrunswick south to the Florida border and west to Valdosta Macon one of the largest metropolitan areas of the state served only in a limited manner by the University System at the baccalaureate and graduate levels and the Interstate75 Corridor north of Atlanta to the Tennessee line
wider dispersal of baccalaureate opportunities in nursing with these opportunities being made available particularly in Columbus andor Carrollton Macon and the 175 North CorridorKennesawRomeDalton the exploration of the possibility of meeting some of these regional needs through outreach activities from present baccalaureate programs rather than through new programs
the reinstitution of specific academic requirements for admission to University System institutions to include emphasis on laboratory sciences foreign languages mathematics and writing skills
the redevelopment of interest in foreign languages for support of an internationalized economy and creation of

The System Summary
an understanding of other cultures
the development in south Georgia of a Center for the Arts to become the focus for creative excellence within the state and to enrich an area which does not have direct access to cultural opportunities to the extent of those available in the more populous and urban northern region
the establishment at colleges and universities throughout the state of Centers of Excellence in specific program areas within the Liberal and Fine Arts
the implementation of several steps in businessindustry technology among which would be
development of a multiyear comprehensive engineering science and technology program embracing instruction applied research and extensionto be presented along with objectives and funding targets to the Governor and the General Assembly delineation of program responsibilities and geographic roles of individual institutions in such a program
extension of degree and nondegree engineering computer science and technological education to meet the expanding needs of business and industry the military and nontraditional user groups exploration of the concept of hightechnology outreach centers for instruction and service in the central and southern parts of the state
development of an improved central capability of the University System for the coordination of education research and services for business and industrywith the rationale In the past it has been possible to allow individual units in the University System a great deal of autonomy with only general guidance conditions in the future however will require central planning and coordination in order to assure both efficiency and adequacy
strengthening and expansion with adequate funding of twoyear and fouryear engineering technology degree programs in the University System consideration of extension of appropriate programs offered by Southern Technical Institute an engineering technology senior college to sections of the state now underserved by programs in technology
the establishment of satellite research centers at specific locations in the state under direction of research universities but also utilizing the human and physical resources of senior colleges to deal with matters such as the high incidence of stroke in the southeastern part of the state the development of underutilized agricultural resources and economic development
the continuation of the studies under way with regard to the status of University System institutions in Savannah and Albany to determine if the current structure of institutions best responds to the educational needs of the areas served and to the needs of the state as a whole also the consideration of the establishment of a single institution in each of the two areas or to the restructuring of the present institutions to eliminate all unnecessary program duplication The institutions are predominantly black Savannah State College and predominantly white Armstrong State College both senior colleges in Savannah predominantly black Albany State College a senior college and predominantly white Albany Junior College a twoyear college in Albany
the implementation of actions to increase program and institutional productivity and make better use of money and other resources among which would be
designation of specific institutions as centers to meet
clearly demonstrable needs for programs that yield low enrollments at high cost of instruction with the provision that only such centers would offer such programs
strengthening of existing periodic productivitymanagement reviews at institutions including the development of specific criteria for measuring program and institutional productivity and for elimination of programs that are no longer justifiable
continual monitoring of possible institutional and program duplication to determine whether the potential exists for consolidation to achieve greater productivity
measurement of productivity not only in terms of numbers but also in terms of academic excellence using as broad a range of internal and external evaluation measures as possible including but not limited to reports of general and specialized accrediting agencies and followup studies of graduates
the development by the Board of Regents of an operating policy governing internal allocation of resources recognizing the probable necessity for reordering priorities within existing resources in order to meet changing educational needs with such a policy to take into account changing enrollment patterns both at the institutional level and in the System as a whole which will require the careful phased and parallel shifting of resources among programs and institutions
the inclusion in University System programming in the health professions of curricular emphasis on prevention of disease and an examination of methods of health care cost containment also development of public service continuing education and research programs to contribute to the solution of the problem of escalating health care costs

Reports Endorsed Continued from Front Cover
the Board of Regents and members of the State Board of Education
The boards were very careful to use the term endorse instead of approve according to W Ray Cleere vice chancellor for academic affairs of the Board of Regents because some of the items in the two documents will require further study before recommendation for approval
High School Preparation for College
The endorsed report on high school preparation for college lists courses in two categories those that are essential for success in college and those that are additionally strongly recommended
The courses units and instructional emphases identified in the essential category are
English 4 unitsgrammar and usage American and world literature advanced composition skills
Science3 units physical science at least 2 laboratory courses from biology chemistry or physics
Mathematics 3 unitstwo courses in algebra and one course in geometry
Social Science 3 unitsAmerican history world history economics and government
Foreign Languages 2 units skillbuilding courses emphasizing speaking listening reading and writing
The courses identified in the strongly recommended category are trigonometry an additional laboratory course in science a third course in a foreign language or study in a second foreign language fine arts art dance drama music computer technology physical and health education typing
Teacher Education
The endorsed report on teacher education deals with immediate concerns that require timely action rather than longrange projections or goals an introductory statement indicates
Because the Board of Regents and the State Board of Education have different yet overlapping responsibilities in the field of teacher education the recommendations in the report must be addressed through joint action of the two boards the statement also indicated
The problems facing public schools and teacher education programs are well known the statement further indicates It has become increasingly clear throughout the study that resulted in the report that without certain necessary changes in both the teacher education programs and the public schools these problems will soon reach crisis proportions
Under the heading Teacher Preparation the report indicates that there is a national and state insufficiency in supply of teachers
In Georgia the document elaborates the number of
teacher education graduates has decreased almost 30 percent in the last decade and those graduating filled only half the vacancies However the problem is greater than not having enough teachers to fill vacant positions A number of state and national surveys have shown that the academic ability of the students who are entering teacher preparation programs is well below that of most students in other fields of higher education
The statement continues
Because the Board of Regents and the State Board of Education have different yet overlapping responsibilities in this crucial area it is imperative that these recommendations be addressed through joint action
The report lists 10 necessary changes in teacher preparation A summary of the recommendations for these changes is
1 Stricter enforcement by the Board of Regents and the State Board of Education of evaluative standards for teacher education with placement of deficient programs on probation and discontinuance of such programs if deficiencies are not corrected
2 Strengthening of college preparatory courses in the States high schools and of lowerdivision core programs in the States colleges and universities subsequently raising of college admission and performance standards in teacher i education
3 Assumption by the Board of Regents with the assistance of the State Board of Education of a more active role in suggesting needed changes in the curriculum of colleges of education
4 Recruitment of the best qualified education profes 1 sors in the States institutions of higher education with salaries and working conditions being made competitive with those of other states
5 More aggressive recruitment of students for teacher education including the offering of stateprovided loans andor scholarships with special consideration being given to students who plan to teach in areas of critical shortage such as mathematics and science
6 Continued development and revision by the State Department of Education of Teacher Certification Tests in all areas in which the Department certifies teachers and providing of better and more convenient service possibly at a lower cost
7 Evaluation by the State Board of Education of the onthejob assessment process for beginning teachers which includes the Teacher Performance Assessment Instruments as to its cost effectiveness and its contribution to the improvement of instruction
8 Thorough revision by the State Board of Education of the teacher certification process described as too complex and rigid with the goal of simplification
9 Increased reciprocity by Georgia with other states in the
employment of certified teachers with Georgia recognizing and accepting certification from other states with comparable standards without the unnecessary imposition of additional course requirements I
10 Development by the State Board of Education of a

The System Summary
new procedure for granting certification to college graduates who do not have the required professional preparation to teach at the secondary school level
Under the heading The Profession the report indicates that Georgia ranks an inadequate thirtythird in the nation in average salary for classroom teachers In addition this statement continues the States present lockstep salary schedule for teachers rewards only training and longevity not excellence Merit and incentive pay must become a part of the salary structure to halt the growing exodus of able teachers from the States classrooms
There are factors in addition to salary however the report indicates that contribute to the loss of teachers
The nonsalary factors according to the report are
Excessive nonprofessional duties which detract from teaching time
Lack of professional recognition and involvement in the development of school policies and curriculum
Problems of classroom management and discipline
Low teacher morale caused in part by the perceived low status of the teaching profession
Ten recommendations should be promptly considered in an effort to staff Georgias classrooms with qualified teachers according to the report A summary of these recommendations
1 Providing of teacher salaries competitive with salaries in private industry with teacher salaries to include merit pay for exemplary teaching teaching in highpriority disciplines supervision of extracurricular activities and other factors determined by the local school system
2 Providing by local school systems of increased financial support to teachers including meaningful salary supple
ments given by all systems and group health plans and insurance options with costs substantially borne by the systems
3 Encouragement of changes of teaching fields for experienced teachers willing to make such changes as one major solution to critical shortages in fields like mathematics with special grants being made to and institutes being established by the two boards for participating teachers
4 Cooperation of school systems with local businesses to identify and provide appropriate summer employment for teachers
5 Implementation by school boards of paid leave policies and providing by these boards of grants for special projects andor individual professional improvement
6 Delegation by school administrators of nonteaching responsibilities in a way that does not infringe upon the time teachers have to teach and the providing of more paraprofessional assistance to protect teaching time
7 Reduction of pupilteacher ratios not only to improve instruction but also to help retain competent teachers
8 Providing by school systems of programs for identifying and resolving the adjustment problems of beginning teachers and transfer teachers
9 Providing by the State Board of Education local school boards and administrators of ways to help school principals find a better balance between their instructional and administrative leadership roles
10 Conduct by school boards of continuous and planned programs of public relations to chronicle successes of schools to enhance the image of the teaching profession and to promote increased parent and community involvement in schools
How Reports Endorsed by Two Boards Were Developed
The reports titled High School Preparation for College and Teacher EducationNecessary Change adopted by the Board of Regents and the State Board of Education in a joint meeting on February 9 were developed from the results of extensive studies
W Ray Cleere of the Board of RegentsUniversity System of Georgia staff was chairman of both of the groups that studied and reported on the subjects
The study group for the report titled High School Preparation for College included staff members from the Board of RegentsUniversity System of Georgia and the State Board of EducationState Department of Education This group held consultations with curriculum specialists from the States high schools and the States colleges and universities
The study panel for the report titled Teacher Education Necessary Change of which Jim Conkwright of the State Board of EducationState Department of Education served as special liaison representative had a diverse representation It included a member of the Board of Regents a member of the State Board of Education administrative faculty and
staff representatives of the University System administrative representatives of private higher education a parent a school teacher a principal of an elementary school a principal of a high school a personnel director of a local school system a superintendent of a local school system and an official and a staff member of the Georgia School Boards Association
Both the report titled High School Preparation for College and the report titled Teacher EducationNecessary Change had been adopted prior to February 9 by the Special Liaison Committee which is made up of members of both the Board of Regents and the State Board of Education
The teacher education report document in a Conclusion statement indicated The State Board of Education and the Board of Regents should be commended for the cooperative relationship that has developed through the Special Liaison Committee However the crucial issues facing teacher education in Georgia at this time require a new and stronger mandate from the two Boards if these necessary changes recommended in the report endorsed by the two Boards are to be made

Board Statement Encourages Units to Seek Private Gifts
A STATEMENT ON PRIVATE DONATIONS tO institutions of the University System was adopted by the Board of Regents at the March 89 meeting
A major purpose of the action is to give assurance that private contributions to an institution are not considered by the Board in setting allocations of state appropriations to that institution
Text of Statement
The text of the Boardadopted statement is
The Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia recognizing that public institutions are dependent in part on private fundingjust as private institutions are partially dependent on public funding encourages the institutions under its control to seek the support of alumni friends corporations and other private individuals and organizations who might be interested in contributing to the welfare of the institutions their students and their faculties
Furthermore the Board of Regents gives its assurance to any private donor that contributions and income from endowments which go to a University System institution are not considered by the Board in determining the allocation of state funds to that institution
Since most private donations to a college or university are made to a privately controlled foundation established for the benefit of that institution the Board of Regents has no control over the funds donated and most often no knowledge of the amount of money contributed its source or the details of its use
Tool to Allay Unrealistic Fear
Through an agenda item the Regents were told
The Chancellor in suggesting the adoption of this statement notes that institutional fundraisers face this issue in their contacts with prospective donors This statement is designed to give those individuals a tool to allay the unrealistic fear that a gift to a University System institution does no more than reduce the amount of state appropriation which that institution would receive
Portable Buildings Approved
Installation of two portable modular buildings on the campus of the Georgia Institute of Technology was authorized by the Board of Regents at the March 89 meeting
These buildings are to be used by the Georgia Tech Engineering Experiment Station in the conduct of energy and materials research and are to be removed from the campus upon the completion of this research

NONTENURE TRACK POLICY
The nontenure track policy is a new type of measure in the University System
As adopted by the Board this policy provides the nontenure track option for the employment of fulltime professional personnel employed in administrative positions or to staff research technical special career and public service programs or programs which are anticipated to have a limited lifespan or which are funded fully or partially through nonUniversity System sources It does not provide the option for the employment of the fulltime teachingresearch personnel that would have been provided for by the adoption of some previously circulated versions of the proposed policy including the version deferred by the Board from the December meeting
Text of NonTenure Track Policy
The text of the Boardadopted nontenure track policy which is Section 111 VIBNonTenure Track Personnel is
1 Institutions of the University System are authorized to establish professional positions designated as nontenure track positions Each institution shall prepare annually along with its budget a list of positions so designated for submission to and approval by the Chancellor Subsequent requests for such designations submitted during the budget year must also be approved by the Chancellor Positions designated as nontenure track positions or as tenure track positions may be converted to the other type only with approval by the Chancellor

The System Summary
version of the nontenure track policy adopted by the Board in March
Mandate of Board
The Board of Regents mandated review and possible modification of the University System tenure policy at a meeting in May 1982 when the Board approved the addition of 322 faculty members at 32 System institutions to the tenure rolls
The Board indicated in a formal statement adopted at that meeting that review of the tenure policy was being called for because of the rapidly increasing level of tenure in the University System
At least one thing that may have stirred the Board to that action was information in the staffprepared materials recommending approval of the additions to the tenure rolls indicating an increase in the tenure level in the University System from 58 percent in the 198182 academic year to 62 percent projected for the 198283 academic year
That comparison was an approximation however while it took into account the number of faculty members with newly granted tenure it did not deal with other variables
The 58 percenttenured level listed for 198182 was based
on the total number of faculty members 7124and the number of tenured faculty members4116in 198182 as reported by the institutions
The 62 percenttenured level projected for 198283 was based on the same total number of faculty members7124 reported for 198182 and the estimated number of tenured faculty members4438in 198283 which included the 4116 reported for 198182 and the 322 granted tenure by the Board of Regents in May
In recent years the numbers of faculty members added to the tenure rolls in the University System have been 332 in 1982 333 in 1981 333 in 1980 300 in 1979 298 in 1978 339 in 1977 412 in 1976
Actions on Tenure Additions
Tenure for a faculty member is awarded consistent with the policies of the Board of Regents upon recommendation of the President and approval by the Board Tenure recommendations are submitted to the Board of Regents Office annually for review by the Chancellor and his staff and for recommendation by the Chancellor to the Board In recent years the list of recommended tenure additions has gone to the Board for action in May
Revised Policy Manual Adopted for Use Beginning July 1
The revised policy manual of the Board of Regents has been adopted to become effective on July 1 1983
The action was taken by the Board of Regents at the meeting on March 89 It was recommended by the Boards Committee on Organization and Law
Printing of the revised manual and distribution of copies of it to all institutions in the University System will be completed prior to July 1 Vice Chancellor H Dean Propst notified presidents of the institutions through a memorandum dated March 9
The revised manual had been in preparation for approximately a year before it was presented to the Board of Regents at the December 1982 meeting It was received by the Board with a copy being distributed to each Regent with the stipulation that it was to lie on the table for 90 days prior to formal action on its adoption at the March 1983 meeting of the Board
The 90day deferral of action on adoption was provided for final review of the document by members of the Board the Committee on Organization and Law and the Boards
staff
Several proposed changes submitted at the March meeting were included in the revised policy manual adopted
The revision of the manual was initiated to bring Board of Regents policies up to date and to eliminate inconsistencies that have developed over the years according to an agenda item reviewed by the Regents at the December 1982 meeting The agenda item reiterated the various steps taken in connection with the revision
The revision was under the direction of the Committee on Organization and Law headed by Regent Erwin A Friedman Savannah a former Board chairman Mr Friedmans
sevenyear term on the Board expired on January 1 1983 his successor as a Board member was appointed in midMarch
Denton Coker Assistant to the Chancellor in JanuarySeptember 1982 initiated and coordinated the staff work which involved staff members of the Board of Regents Office Dr Coker a former president of the University Systems South Georgia College and now provost of Stetson University in DeLand Florida developed a new format for the policy manual This format is based on an allnumbersdecimal system code to facilitate expansion and revision
An example of the new format The revised policy manual lists Criteria for Promotion of Faculty Members under the designation 80308 whereas the policy manual to be superseded on July 1 lists this entry under the designation 111 V
The revision of the policy manual according to a staff paper prepared near the end of the revision process involved changes in location minor changes in words or dates changes in or deletions of words phrases sentences or paragraphs to clear up the meaning or eliminate unnecessary copy changes in statements to reflect current practices or laws additions of words phrases sentences andor paragraphs to reflect current practices or laws extensive changes
Approximately 300 policy entries make up the revised policy manual
More than half of the items involved no change or no change except location There was considerable change of the order of items in the manual
Most of the revisions involved changes of statements or additions of words phrases sentences andor paragraphs to reflect current practices or laws
Extensive changes were relatively few with only six revisions being designated in this category

In June 1981 matriculation fees were increased 5 percent and nonresident tuition fees were increased 10 percent to become effective in the 1981 fall quarter
Increases in Accord With Revised Funding Formula
The 15 percent increases in the student fees are in accord with one of the major recommendations in a report of the Study Committee on Public Higher Education Finance The report titled Formula for Excellence Financing Georgias University System in the Eighties was adopted by the Study Committee in September 1982 and sets forth a revised Formula for funding of the University System including submission of requests for state appropriations
The Study Committee was made up of publicatlarge members appointed by the Governor General Assembly members from both the House and Senate and University System members The work of the Committee coordinated by a consultant on finance extended over a period of approximately two years
The Study Committee report was approved in principle by the Board of Regents in September 1982
Tuition Policy is the heading of one of the sections of the Study Committee report The text of this section is
The Committee was asked to develop recommendations for a tuition policy that would clarify the responsibilities of taxpayers and students in paying for the costs of the University System Based on several months of Study Committee analysis and deliberation a recommendation was adopted that calls for students and taxpayers to share equitable proportions of University System costs encourages students to become costconscious consumers of higher education responds to students needs for predictable fee increases
The Study Committee recommends that Student tuition and matriculation fee income for the University System of Georgia should account for twentyfive percent 25 of total General Operations revenue in the Resident Instruction budget exclusive of amounts for Community Education and Public Service and their proportionate share of support costs Fees should be increased fifteen percent 15 annually until the twentyfive percent25target is achieved
This section of the report is generally interpreted to recommend that students pay 25 percent of the cost of their instruction
The payment by students in the 198384 fiscal year of approximately 237 percent of the cost of instruction is figured on the basis of the text of the Tuition Policy section of the revised Funding Formula of the University System as set forth in the report of the Study Committee on Public Higher
Education Finance In the 198283 fiscal year students are paying 220 percent of the cost of instruction on the basis of adjustment of computation to conform to the text of the revised Funding Formula
The draft of the Study Committee recommendation on Tuition Policy was in a substantially advanced stage by the fall of 1981 Chancellor Vernon Crawford reported to the Board of Regents in October 1981 at a meeting in Valdosta the basics of the recommendation a target of 25 percent of instructional costs to be paid by students with annual fee increases of a maximum of 15 percent to be levied up to the target level The students in the 198182 year were paying slightly less than 20 percent of instructional costs the Chancellor indicated
At the October 1981 meeting the Board endorsed the concept of establishing a definite relationship between student feesmatriculation and nonresident tuitionand the costs of instruction The Board authorized the Chancellor to negotiate with the State Office of Planning and Budget on a target level for student fees for the 198283 fiscal year with no commitment on a specific level to be made until after completion of a thorough financial analysis of the matter
The first of the backtoback 15 percent increases in student matriculation and nonresident tuition fees was approved by the Board of Regents six months after the October 1981 meeting
For several years there has been advocacysome of it from within the General Assembly of increasing fees to the level at which students would pay 25 percent of the costs of their instruction Of the total cost of instruction in the University System state appropriations pay most of the portion not paid by student fees In the 198384 fiscal year for example the projected breakdown of the cost of instruction is state appropriation 743 percent student fees 237 percent other internal income of institutions 20 percent
For several years in the 1960s and early 1970s student matriculation and nonresident tuition paid approximately 25 percent of the cost of instruction
The present and authorized increased student matriculation and nonresident tuition fees at institutions of the University System are included in the table on Page 9

Student Membership Required On Advisory Panels for Fees
Advisory committee representation of at least 50 percent students for advising and counseling on budgeting and administration of student fees at University System institutions has been mandated by the Board of Regents
The action which involved revision of one sentence of a Board of Regents policy was taken by the Board at a meeting on April 1213
The revision continues in effect the requirement that all student activity fees collected by an institution be budgeted and administered by the president
Texts of New Superseded Sentences
The text of the newly revised paragraph included in the Board of Regents policy on Student Activity Fees is
All student activity fees collected by an institution shall be budgeted and administered by the President using proper administrative procedures which shall include the advice and counsel of an advisory committee composed of at least fifty percent students
The text of the superseded paragraph was
All student activity fees collected by an institution shall be budgeted and administered by the President using administrative procedures designed for appropriate committee staff and student input regarding the formulation of policies and operational procedures for student activities
Virtually all University System institutions presently utilize an advisory committee such as the one provided for in the revision of the policy at the April meeting the Regents were told through an agenda item at that meeting But the Student Advisory Council believes that the policy statement should include the restrictive wording to insure that student participation will continue as campus leadership changes in future years the agenda item also indicated

with the full responsibility for its management and quality
Each approved program shall be authorized for a specified period of time after which a full review of the productivity and cost effectiveness of the program will be conducted by the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs with a subsequent recommendation by the Chancellor to the Board for continuation or discontinuation of the program
External degree proposals may be submitted only from those institutions having authorized degrees in the disciplines proposed The applicable regulations of the policy on OffCampus Instruction 30303 shall apply to the development and offering of external degree programs Institutions submitting proposals for external degree programs shall follow established procedural guidelines in the development of those proposals for review by the Chancellors staff
Revision of Existing Policy
Item E of the policy on OffCampus Instruction in the present policy manual of the Board of Regents was revised to bring it into harmony with the newly adopted policy on external degrees
Revised Item E will become effective in the 1983 fall quarter The text of this item which was changed only by the addition of the wording in boldfaced type is
No more than onefourth of the work required for an undergraduate degree and onehalf of the work required for a masters degree can be earned offcampus unless taken in an approved residence center or in an authorized external degree program
The Chancellors staff will administer procedural guidelines to keep the Board of Regents informed on the various aspects of the External Degree programs according to an agenda item reviewed by the Regents at the April meeting
For each proposed External Degree program the agenda item indicated the procedural guidelines will provide information on need existence of a qualified applicant pool maximum utilization of University System resources including faculty staff and facilities of proposed cooperating units degree of adequacy of support facilities and resources of the proposed host unit or location proposed timetable for operation and procedure for periodic review proposed budget
with breakdown by all major categories of expenditures and projected cost for the life of the program proposed student costs that are different from customary oncampus charges
Discussion in 1980
At a regular monthly meeting in October 1980 Board of Regents members discussed at considerable length the matter of whether University System institutions should be authorized to offer degree progams in entirety at offcampus sites No action was taken however the Board of Regents staff was charged to continue indepth wideranging study of the matter
Discussion at that time was focused primarily on the feasibility and desirability for the University System institutions to offer degree programs in entirety at business and industrial establishments Some institutions had received requests to offer specified degree programs at these establishments a staff report to the Regents indicated Valdosta State College had been asked by a firm located in Albany to offer for the firms employees a masters degree program in business administration according to the report North Georgia College Dahlonega and Gainesville Junior College had been requested by a firm located in Dahlonega to offer for the firms employees an associate degree program in management
There was considerable support among the Regents at the October 1980 meeting for the concept of offering degrees in entirety at business and industrial establishments Among the major points made in discussion of this concept at that time
Thorough study of the concept would be required
Excellence should be ensured for any program that may be established under the concept
The concept should embrace not only degree programs in entirety at business and industrial establishments but also the whole idea of nontraditional delivery modes of higher education programs
One Regent who spoke in favor of the principle of facilitating the offering of degree programs at business and industrial sites held out for some oncampus connection The Board policy allowing such programs if such should be adopted should not be absolute in the sense that the students never I would show up at the degreegranting institutions he said
Nonresident Tuition Waivers for Georgia State University Increased
An increase of onethird in the quota of waivers of nonresident tuition fees for graduate students at Georgia State University was approved by the Board of Regents at the April 1213 meeting
The increase from 60 to 80 was requested by Georgia State University President Noah Langdale Jr the Regents were informed through an agenda item
Revision of the policy pertaining to quotas of waivers of nonresident tuition fees for graduate students was approved by the Board of Regents in March Prior to the revision
Georgia Institute of Technology Georgia State University and the University of Georgia each had a quota of 60 The revision left Georgia Institute of Technology and Georgia State University each with a quota of 60 increased the University of Georgia quota to 80 and added the Medical College of Georgia to the list of institutions with quotas The Medical College was voted a quota of 20 The policy revision also changedfrom in any one year to at any one point in time the reference for determining full utilization of a quota

The System Summary
Resident Center Continued from Front Cover
in cash for initial renovation of facilities from the Laurens County Commission
The Laurens County Commission has offered through Chairman Mike Wolfe who appeared before the Boards Buildings and Grounds Committee on April 12 to give the property and 150000 for initial renovation work The Committee recommended the minimum of 300000 for renovation that the Board made a condition of its commitment in action taken on April 13
Frank C Dunham vice chancellor for facilities told the Buildings and Grounds Committee and the Board that the plan for the property would be to demolish portions of the facilities and retain approximately 30000 square feet for renovation for use as a resident center He said the initial phase of the renovation in accordance with this plan would include approximately 15000 square feet and would cost at least 300000perhaps more
A summary report on the proposal for the acquisition of the property by the Board of Regents for use as a resident center was presented to the Committee on Buildings and Grounds and the Board at the April meeting The Committee had had the proposal before it previously
The report indicates
Middle Georgia College Cochran a University System junior college has offered programs in Dublin since 1972 it offered 33 classes and enrolled students for 2860 credit hours in the 198182 fiscal year
This institution which is 32 miles from Dublin also had oncampus enrollment of 337 students from Laurens County which was 18 percent of total enrollmentin 198182
Georgia College Milledgeville a System senior college offering undergraduate and graduate programs offered 9 graduatelevel teacher education classes and enrolled 120 students in Dublin in the 198182 academic year The College offered a business administration program in Dublin for several years through the 197677 fiscal year with 8 classes offered and 143 students enrolled in the last year The business administration program was terminated because of the offcampus policy limiting the number of acceptable hours of nonresident credit for degree programs
This institution located 45 miles from Dublin had oncampus enrollment of 190 students from Laurens County in the 1982 fall quarter
Emanuel County Junior College the other System institution in the general vicinity of Dublin has been invited to offer classes in Dublin but has declined to do so in deference to the service area of Middle Georgia College
This institution situated 36 miles from Dublin had oncampus enrollment of 3 students from Laurens County in 198182
Initial enrollment in the proposed resident center in Dublin is conservatively estimated at 350400 students and the maximum potential enrollment is projected to be 700
students
i he potential service area for a proposed resident center would include all or part of seven counties contiguous to Laurens County
The optimum organization for operation of the pro
posed resident center probably would be a consortial arrangement involving Middle Georgia College Georgia College and Emanuel County Junior College with Middle Georgia College responsible for the administration of the center
Academic needs of the DublinLaurens County area are nursing at associate and baccalaureate levels and selected auxiliary health care programs teacher education especially at the graduate level a modest program in business administrationgeneral business at undergraduate and graduate levels possibly for the short term criminal justicepublic administration programs associate degree programs in addition to nursing in the transfer category and in selected career fields
Administrative personnel costs for the proposed resident center would be 85000130000 annually for full operation All operational costs would be prorated among the participating institutions
The land and buildings to be conveyed to the Board of Regents would be acquired by the Laurens County Commission from the Laurens County Hospital Authority former owner of the property which has an option to repurchase the property from the Hospital Corporation of America
The Board of Regents action to acquire the old Fairview Park Hospital property was taken with four dissenting votes and one abstention
Support included the argument that a Boardowned extension center could be used advantageously by two University System institutionsGeorgia College Milledgeville and Middle Georgia College Cochrancurrently offering courses in nonBoard facilities in Dublin and by other System institutions that might wish to offer courses in that city It also included a statement that a private institution Brewton Parker Junior College Mount Vernonreportedly has explored the feasibility of acquiring the vacated hospital property for use as an offcampus center and that such a development might cause a loss in enrollment of DublinLaurens County students by University System institutions
Opposition included the argument that the establishment of the extension center under Board of Regents ownership would constitute a precedent that the present offcampus centers operated jointly by University System institutions are in facilities provided by nonBoard entities Such a precedent the argument continued might result in pressure for making the extension center a college The opposition contended that the operation of offcampus programs in Dublin by University System colleges over the past several years is indicative that the System institutions can serve that area without the establishment of a Boardowned facility also that the Board in acquiring the proffered property would face new fiscal commitments for such as renovation beyond the initial stage operation and building and grounds maintenance
The expression of concern about possible pressure to convert the facility if acquired to a college was followed by the reminder that the Board of Regents could not unilaterally establish a new institution but under the new state Constitution adopted in 1982 must receive the consent of the General Assembly

Desegregation Continued from Front Cover
a Freshman Minority Presence Tuition Scholarships program subject to funding by the General Assembly The proposed scholarships would be in effect waivers of tuition for firsttime freshman enrollees black students and white students qualifying for regular admission to an institution to which they apply and at which they would be of the minority race
The 25page document was developed by federal directive as were the edition of the University System furtherdesegregation plan in operation for the past five years and a number of predecessor editions developed by the Board of Regents in the 1970s
The Addendum was transmitted by the Board of Regents to Governor Harris on May 12 for submission to the Office for Civil Rights U S Department of Education The Governor received from the Department of Education a January 31 request for additional actions for further desegregation of Georgias institutions of public higher education and the development by the Board of Regents of the Addendum approved by the Board on May 11 grew out of that request
Governor Harris on May 13 asked the federal agency for a twoweek delay in the May 16 deadline for submitting the Board of Regentsapproved Addendum He said he needed the additional time for study of the document which sets forth proposed additional state spending to finance some furtherdesegregation measures
Traditionally requests for major federally mandated furtherdesegregation plans for Georgias public higher education and major revisions to such plans have been received by the Governor and documents developed in response to such requests have been transmitted by the Governor Traditionally also the actual plans and revisions have been developed by the Board of Regents the constitutional governing board of the University System which embraces all stateoperated universities and colleges
A summary of the additional furtherdesegregation proposals of the Board of Regents
Preparation for College
Improvement of preparation for college of high school graduates of both minority and majority students is set forth in the opening section of the Addendum as an objective
This section indicates
The low participation rate of Georgias high school graduates in postsecondary education may be attributed in part to the type of preparation the students receive in the secondary schools A number of national studies attest to a climate of concern about the human costs of diminished emphasis on traditional academic subjects in the high schools One means of addressing this problemfor both minority and majority studentsin Georgia is the provision of better information to students and parents relative to the academic preparation necessary for success at the college level
The proposal for implementation in connection with this objective includes
Distribution of a paper High School Preparation for College endorsed in February 1983 by the Board of Regents of the University System and the State Board of Edu
cation for use as a curriculum planning guide for high school students who plan to enroll in college
Conduct of a series of workshops throughout Georgia in the fall of 1983 for high school guidance and counseling personnel to emphasize the collegepreparatory curriculum and the University Systems educational program offerings
Student Recruitment
The Addendum proposes several measures on recruitment of students emphasizing primarily recruitment of black students
These proposed measures include
Development of a Minority Recruitment Brochure on undergraduate educational opportunities available at University System institutions for distribution throughout Georgias public schools
Employment of at least one minority recruiting officer or provision of at least one minority faculty member on released time for recruiting activities at each University System institution by 1984
Steppedup visitations of high schools by University System institutions with particular efforts to seek out those black students who have been identified as having taken the Scholastic Aptitude Test or the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test
Development of a slidetape presentation on program offerings of University System institutions to be shown during visits to high schools and on Georgias public television system
Establishment of new recruitment approaches for black students through which University System institutions will seek to participate in programs at black churches supporting higher education utilize black church bulletins for announcements relative to higher education obtain assistance from leaders of black fraternities and sororities and other major social and civic organizations invite black leaders to campus for discussion of institutional objectives and goals advertise in black media publications and on black broadcasting stations
Distribution each fall to all high school counselors in Georgia of a computerized inventory of all educational programs available at University System institutions
Desegregation of Students
The Addendum includes a number of proposals for additional desegregation at the predominantly white institutions and at the predominantly black institutions
These proposals include
Establishment of Freshman Minority Presence Tuition Scholarships
The full text of this proposal
Freshman Minority Presence Tuition Scholarships The University System recognizes that additional financial assistance is needed to improve the level of minority enrollment at majorityrace institutions These Freshman Minority Presence tuition scholarships will be available to black students

who attend predominantly white institutions and white students who attend predominantly black institutions The scholarships which will be in effect tuition waivers will be awarded to firsttime freshman enrollees who have qualified for regular admission to the institution to which they apply The scholarship award will be limited to one academic year of three successive quarters Students must enroll fulltime during each of the three quarters minimum of 12 credit hours per quarter The scholarship program will be made available to freshman students for each of the 1985 1986 1987 fiscal years Program implementation will be contingent upon necessary funding by the Governor and the Legislature replacing the loss of internal revenue by state appropriation
Intensification of efforts to increase the number of black students transferring from public junior colleges to public seniorlevel institutions utilization with some modifications of an intercampus unit of Albany Junior College a predominantly white twoyear institution and Albany State College a predominantly black senior college as a model for other University System institutions
Development of formal consortial arrangements involving senior colleges and neighboring junior colleges to identify minority students with academic promise at the junior colleges and to encourage these students to transfer to baccalaureate degree programs at the senior colleges
Expansion of a 100000 per year statefunded scholarship program of 1000 per student per year designed primarily to encourage white students to transfer from predominantly white Albany Junior College to predominantly black Albany State College but also open to black transfer students
Continuation of Porter Merit Scholarships funded from a privately provided trust which presently provides 45 scholarships of 3000 per student per year for academically talented students regardless of race for attendance at the University Systems three traditionally black senior colleges Albany State College Fort Valley State College and Savannah State College
Retention of Students
The Addendum includes proposals for two new measures for increasing retention of students as a step toward reaching minorityenrollment goals and increasing the desegregation levels at University System institutions
These proposed measures are
Establishment at each University System fouryear institution of a Summer Enrichment Programwith tuition but not other fees being waivedfor minority students with identified academic deficiencies who have been admitted for the fall quarter
This program would involve noncredit remedial assistance in reading mathematics and writing and enrichment in the sciences career counseling and instruction in study skills and followup tutoring throughout the ensuing academic year
Development by each University System institution of a Minority Advising Program with Minority Advising Units
made up of black students in the predominantly white institutions and of white students in the predominantly black institutions to work closely with minority students during their first year of attendance
Black Enrollment
in Graduate Professional Programs
The Addendum sets forth three proposals for additional efforts to increase black enrollment in graduate and professional programs
These proposed measures are
Seeking of an increase from 500000 to 1000000 beginning in the 198485 fiscal year in the annual state appropriation for Regents Opportunity Scholarships of 2500 or I 5000 per recipient per year for attendance at University System institutions
This program which has been funded at 500000 per year since 197879 is included in the present master Plan for Further Desegregation of the University System It is intended especially as a means of increasing black enrollment in graduate and professional programs in which minorities are underrepresented Black students have received a substantial majority of these scholarships however there is no restriction as to race and other minority students and white students regularly have received some of the awards
Establishment of an Identification Program to provide added encouragement to black graduates to enroll in graduate and professional schools
This proposal would involve
Submission to the Board of Regents Office each fall quarter by each University System fouryear institution of a list of promising black baccalaureate students who will graduate during the year and have at least 275 grade point average circulation of these lists to all graduate schools in the System for use in recruiting
Conduct by each University System fouryear institution during each winter quarter of a seminar to advise senior students on graduate and professional educational opportunities and financial aid available in the System placing of special emphasis on the invitation to each seminar of promising black students enrolled in the institution
Desegregation of Faculty and Staff
The Addendum contains proposals for implementation of several additional measures in a good faith effort to increase the level of minority employment in faculty and administrative positions in the University System
The proposed measures planned to be handled through the Board of Regents Office and to emphasize the recruitment of black personnel are
Conduct of a survey of all graduate institutions in the United States to try to locate black doctoral candidates with potential interest in a career in higher education establishment of direct contact with as many such students as possible to discuss merits of a career in the University System
Reorganization of procedures of the University System

The System Summary
Applicant Clearinghouse to ensure that black applicants are aware of job opportunities in the System
Establishment of a University System black vita bank to assist institutions in locating black faculty members and administrators
Development of a comprehensive procedures manual for implementation of affirmative action in the University System
Conduct by representatives of University System institutions and the Board of Regents Office of annual recruitment missions to major universities in the Midwest and Northeast which produce significant numbers of black doctoral graduates to establish an ongoing source for the identification of potential minority applicants for University System positions
Establishment of a University System Administrative Internship Program which subject to funding by the General Assembly would involve participation annually for three years of ten black faculty members with an earned doctorate in an academic discipline creation from this program of an inhouse pool of trained minority administrators
This program would involve one academic year of internship in the office of the president of a predominantly white institution Participants would receive full budgeted salary for the year and a relocation allowance
Campus Improvement
Construction of New Buildings
The Addendum sets forth commitments to continue to seek additional state appropriations for fulfillment of goals for campus improvement and construction of new buildings at the three traditionally black senior colleges of the University System
The commitments to seek state funding for campus improvement and construction of new buildings were made initially by the Board of Regents in the present Plan for Further Desegregation of the University System of Georgia
For campus improvement the initial commitment was to seek a total of 15 million That amount was to be requested on the schedule of 3 million per year for 5 yearswhich was 1 million per year for each of the three traditionally black senior colleges Albany State College Fort Valley State College and Savannah State College Since 197980 state funding for this program has totaled 3 million
For construction of new buildings the initial commitment was to seek funding for a number of new projects for the three traditionally black senior colleges and for a joint project involving one of those institutions Savannah State College and a predominantly white senior college Armstrong State College
One of the projects committed has been completed a 2 millionplus Research Building at Fort Valley State College
One of the projects committed has been funded for construction a 3million Joint Continuing Education CenterPhase I for Savannah State CollegeArmstrong State College
Three of the projects committed are presently unfunded for construction design and plans for these projects have been completed The projects are a Criminal Justice Building at Albany State College a Farm and Community Life Building at Fort Valley State College and a Business Administration Building at Savannah State College

Desegregation Continued from Front Cover
College at Fort Valley and Savannah State College at Savannah and new buildings at the traditionally black senior colleges
Concentration on these aspects was requested in the federalgovernment communication that prompted the development of the Addendum
A major action in the revision of the Addendum was the deletion from the Boardapproved version of a proposal for establishment of a tuitionwaiver program That program proposed to be funded with additional state appropriations to offset studentfee losses was designed to increase blackstudent enrollment at predominately white institutions and whitestudent enrollment at predominately black institutions
Another major feature of the revision of the document was the insertion in the introductory section of new material on several major aspects of desegregation in the University System Portions of the new material deal with progress already made toward fulfillment of the furtherdesegregation plan of the University System other portions set forth analysis of perceived viability relevance and prospects of achievement of some of the goals
Representatives of the office of the Board of Regents participated in the revision of the Addendum Vernon Crawford Chancellor of the Board of RegentsUniversity System said
The revised Addendum transmitted by Governor Harris to the Office for Civil Rights U S Department of Education retains most of the proposals approved by the Board of Regents on May 11 and sent to the Governor on May 12 Several of the retained proposals in the Addendum however are modifiedfrom slight to substantial degree in the revised document
The document grew out of a January 31 letter to Governor Harris from the Office for Civil Rights U S Department of Education a March 24 order of Judge John H Pratt of the U S District Court of the District of Columbia and an April 5 letter to the Governor from the Department of Education The Office for Civil Rights for approximately a decade has been monitoring desegregation of public higher education in Georgia and several other states in the South as a defendant in a suit Kenneth Adams et al plaintiffs v Secretary of the U S Department of Education et al defendants widely referred to as the Adams Case in the U S District Court for the District of Columbia
Governor Harris on May 13 requested that the Office for Civil Rights grant a twoweek delay in the May 16 deadline previously set for transmittal of the Addendum He said he needed the additional time for study of several major aspects of the document including proposed additional state appropriations for some measures
Requests for major federally mandated plans for further desegregation of University System institutions and for major revisions of or additions to such plans customarily have been addressed to the Governor and documents developed in response to such requests customarily have been transmitted by the Governor to the proper federal agencies Also the actual documents customarily have been developed and approved by the Board of Regents the constitutional governing board of the University System which embraces all state
operated public higher education in Georgia
Deleted Proposal
The proposal for establishment of a tuitionwaiver program designed to increase desegregation of student bodies at University System institutions included in the furtherde egregation Addendum approved by the Board of Regents was deleted in its entirety from the revised version of the Addendum transmitted by Governor Harris to the U S Office for Civil Rights
The text of that deleted proposal was
Freshman Minority Presence Tuition Scholarships The University System recognizes that additional financial assistance is needed to improve the level of minority enrollment at majorityrace institutions These Freshman Minority Presence tuition scholarships will be available to black students who attend predominately white institutions and white students who attend predominately black institutions The scholarships which will be in effect tuition waivers will be awarded to firsttime freshman enrollees who have qualified for regular admission to the institution to which they apply The scholarship award will be limited to one academic year of three successive quarters Students must enroll fulltime during each of the three quarters minimum of 12 credit hours per quarter The scholarship program will be made available to freshman students for each of the 1985 1986 1987 fiscal years Program implementation will be contingent upon necessary funding by the Governor and the Legislature replacing the loss of internal revenue by state appropriation
TEXT OF REVISED ADDENDUM
The text of the revised Addendum transmitted by Governor Harris to the U S Office for Civil Rights with boldfaced type indicating portions that are new and portions materially reworded from the initial version of the Addendum approved by the Board of Regents is
Introduction
The following is an Addendum to A Plan for the Further Desegregation of the University System of Georgia approved by the Department of Health Education and Welfare on February 9 1979 This Addendum is submitted in response to a letter April 5 1983from Mr Harry N Singleton Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights U S Department of Education to Governor Joe Frank Harris This April 5 letter refers to an earlier letter from Mr William H Thomas Director Region IV Office for Civil RightsJanuary 31 1983 transmitting an OCR evaluation of progress made through
198182 toward meeting the objectives of the 1979 Plan
The initial Boardapproved Addendum identified United States District Court Judge John H Pratts order of March 24 1983 in Civil Action No 309570 Kenneth Adams et al plaintiffs v Terrel H Bell Secretary of Education et al defendants as a factor that prompted preparation of the document The communications to Governor Harris from the Office for Civil Rights referred to that court case and its bearing on the call for additional desegregation efforts in the University System
According to Mr Thomas letter the principal unmet Plan goals and objectives commitments in initial Boardapproved version are in four areas
1 Racial Parity of Student Enrollment in the University System
2 Racial Imbalance of Students and of Faculty and Staff
3 Campus EnhancementTraditionally Black Institutions TBIs
4 New Buildings TBIs

The System Summary
Editorial Note Appendix materials of substantial volume in both the revised version and the initial version as well as references thereto have been deleted in the publication here of the text of the revised Addendum
tions of higher education designed to address the four major areas outlined above This Addendum offers some additional measures in response to that request measures which the state deems realistic within those parameters which will allow the maintenance of educational opportunity at an acceptable level of quality for all its citizens
Educational social and economic conditions in Georgia and throughout the Nation have changed since the Georgia Plan was approved It must be noted that Georgias success in the implementation of its Plan differs in no great respect from that of the other Adams states and that the condition of equal educational opportunity in Georgias statesupported junior colleges senior colleges and universities differs in no significant respect from the national record The state either has met or has made significant progress toward meeting most of the goals or objectives many of the commitments in the initial version in the 1979 Plan The inability failure in initial version to meet certain goals and objectives some of the commitments in initial version is in no sense a demonstration of a lack of good faith effort on the part of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia but is a result of factors which are neither legally nor factually subject to governmental control Because of changing conditions some of the 1979 Plan objectives are unrealistic in terms of the possibility of their being met within the life of the Plan and some do not now respond to legitimate need
One of the most difficult goals to achieve is that involving proportionate firstyear enrollment of minority and majority high school graduates in postsecondary education in Georgia Plan September 1977 p 167 Deleted reference to Appendix table showing disparity in firsttime black enrollment in the University System While the System reaffirms its commitment to working diligently toward the enrollment parity objective there are factors which strongly indicate suggest in initial version that the goal is unrealistic
Georgias private institutionsfive of which are TBIs and DeKalb Community College not part of the University Systemhave substantial black enrollments This contributes significantly to the Systems difficulties in enrolling black students The state funds and promotes a tuition equalization grant program for eligible students who are attending approved private colleges in Georgia These state grants have been increased to 700 per student per academic year During Fiscal Year 1983 11120000 was appropriated for this program During Fiscal Year 1982 5795 black students 314 percent of the totalreceived grants in the total amount of 33 million under the tuition equalization program While DeKalb Community College is a countysupported institution it received state support in the amount of 6485688 in Fiscal Year 1983 Therefore both the state equalization grant program and the states support of a nonUniversity System community college encourage black attendance at nonSystem institutions
Georgia is currently examining an apparent problem with the overall participation rate of high school graduates in postsecondary education A report on a participation rate study prepared by the Governors Committee on Postsecondary Education concluded that the South trails the nation and Georgia trails the South This report noted that typically 55 percent of high school graduates become fulltime students in postsecondary education with approximately 45 percent in college 8 or 9 percent in public vocationaltechnical schools and the remainder in other types of postsecondary programs Standard high school graduates are more likely to enroll in postsecondary educational programs fulltime than are comprehensive high school graduates Of the comprehensive high
school graduates more are likely to enter fulltime employment or to enroll in vocationaltechnical schools Compared to a national sample of high school graduates Georgians are more likely to enter fulltime employment or to enter the military
It is important to note that a greater percentage of high school students are enrolled in vocational training programs in Georgia than are enrolled in such programs nationally or in any other Southern state Information on postgraduation activities of Georgia students suggests that students who have completed vocational programs in high school are more likely to enter the work force after graduation and are less likely to become fulltime students at the postsecondary level
Therefore the achievement of parity of student enrollment is directly affected by all of the factors outlined above Nevertheless the University System will continue to work toward the achievement of the parity goal Measures designed to achieve that goal as outlined in this Addendum may produce forward progress but experience indicates that fully meeting the goal in the foreseeable future is simply not within the realm of human possibility In the initial version While these measures may produce longterm benefits it is doubtful that they will lead to immediate results
The real question in Georgia is not whether parity of student enrollment is an achievable goal but what the state can do to increase the overall black participation rate in University System institutions and ensure a greater level of enrollment of students who will provide minority representation in the TBIs Traditionally Black Institutions and in Traditionally White Institutions TWIN There are no barriers to admission based on race at any System institution At the same time there exist no lawful means for the state to direct high school graduates to attend college or to direct choices of institutions by students who decide to continue from the secondary schools into higher education Students have full freedom of choice The System has had some success in attracting other race students to the TBIs by placing certain academic programs at these institutions as committed in the 1979 Plan most notably at Albany State College where white enrollment has increased from 36 percent to 156 percent of total enrollment from 19781979 to 19821983based on fall quarter enrollments Some progress has also been made in attracting black students to the TWIs with such enrollment constituting 146 percent of the total during Fall 1982 The state will continue to work toward the further racial balance of student enrollment in the University System recognizing that not only an increase in initial enrollments but also improvement in retention rates will be necessary to accomplish that goal
The state will also continue its efforts to achieve racial balance in the faculty and staff of the institutions of the University System Georgia faces the same difficulty in this area as that faced by other states A recent report prepared by the consulting firm of Clark Phipps Clark and Harris Inc for the University System addressed five fundamental problems which make the recruitment of black faculty and administrators difficult Among the problems identified is the nationwide short supply of blacks with doctoral training The report notes that blacks are recipients of approximately 1200or four percent of the doctoral degrees awarded in the United States annually and that more than onehalf of the degrees awarded to blacks are in education The demand for teachers in education programs has decreased dramatically The competition for the limited number of recipients of doctoral degrees in other academic disciplines is keen and involves not only institutions of higher education but also business and industry Nevertheless the state remains committed to the goal of increasing minority employment at the faculty and staff level in the University System
A significant part of the states good faith effort to achieve racial balance in the University System is illustrated by special appropriations approved by the Legislature in support of the program goals Since the 1979 Plan was approved the Legislature has provided a cumulative total of 16080000 Fiscal Year 1979Fiscal Year 1984 primarily for enhancement of the

It should be noted that this special funding has not occurred in isolation from ongoing efforts to enhance the status of the TBIs within the University System Since Fiscal Year 1956 the average perstudent allocation of state appropriation to the TBIs three senior colleges has greatly exceeded the average perstudent allocation for all senior colleges The positive disparity in such allocations has been maintained for twentynine years The projected figures for Fiscal Year 1984 show a perstudent allocation state appropriation of 3499 for all senior colleges 14 and 5711 for the TBIs 3 a difference of 2212 per student Deleted reference to Appendix table showing perstudent annual allocations to University System institutions since Fiscal Year 1955 These perstudent annual allocations figures assume added significance when considered in view of two additional factors First in 195456 there were seven senior colleges in the Systemincluding the three TBIs Traditional Black Institutions Since that time seven additional senior colleges have been developed which could have but did not decrease the level of funding support enjoyed by the TBIs Second the most favored funding status accorded the TBIs is further illustrated by a calculation which does not include perstudent allocations for these institutions in the senior college average The perstudent allocation for the TBIs 3 in Fiscal Year 1979 was 3359 the perstudent allocation for all other senior colleges 11 was 2250 The positive disparity for the TBIs was 1109 per student The projected perstudent allocation at the TBIs for Fiscal Year 1984 is 5711 the projected perstudent allocation for all other senior colleges is 3194 The positive funding disparity for the TBIs thus is projected to be 2517
The states efforts for almost three decades therefore have been directed toward the enhancement of the TBIs in the University System through the maintenance of a positive funding disparity between these institutions and all other senior colleges in the University System
The ability of the state to fund all of the needs of its institutions of higher education has been severely hampered by increasing demands on the state budget from other sectors as well as the general decline in the economy that has afflicted not only the state but also the nation generally When the 1979 Plan was developed the immediate history of capital funding for the University System showed 18025000 in capital outlay appropriations for Fiscal Year 1978 and 45746000 for Fiscal Year 1979 The dramatic decrease in the level of capital funding from Fiscal Year 1980 the first operative year of the 1979 Plan insofar as legislative appropriations are concerned to Fiscal Year 1984 is illustrated by the fact that the total capital outlay appropriations for the full fiveyear period 40700000is less than the amount that was available during the single year the 1979 Plan was in the final stages of development and approval All of the 33 units of the University System have capital outlay needs some of which are critical The System has projects in design awaiting the availability of construction funds in the total amount of 47360000 The projects in design include a Criminal Justice Building at Albany State College a Farm and Community Life Building at Fort Valley State College and a Business Administration Building at Savannah State College The total estimated construction costs of these buildings
is 9650000 The construction costs of other buildings at the TBIs in design total an estimated 5350000 The Board of Regents will continue to consider the importance of these pr jects as capital priorities of the whole system are determined n the basis of need and available funding
It is important to note that certain of the numerical commitments in the 1979 Plan are stated in terms of goals A goal is not a quota A goal may or may not be fully achieved it is an aim an end an objective that one strives to attainsuch as for example good health or zero crime A quota on the other hand is a definite number or amount fixed with the promise of full achievement Failure to fully achieve a goal cannot be interpreted as a failure to meet a commitment to the goal Nor can that failure be interpreted as evidence of a lack of good faith effort The State of Georgia has demonstrated its good faith in its attempt to achieve the goals included in the 1979 Plan It is committed to continuing to work toward those goals in a manner that is realistic and educationally sound
This Addendum offers some additional measures designed to address the 1979 Plan in the areas of parity of student enrollment and desegregation of students faculty and staff It offers some additional comments relating to campus enhancement and new buildings at the TBIs Deleted reference to Appendix material setting forth the states responses to the evaluation by the Office for Civil Rights U S Department of Education of Georgias progress on fulfillment of the 1979 document A Plan for the Further Desegregation of the University System of Georgia
PARITYSTUDENT ENROLLMENT Undergraduate FirstYear Black Enrollment
A number of factors discussed earlier in this document indicate that full achievement of proportionate firstyear enrollment of minority and majority high school graduates in the institutions of the University System of Georgia is an unrealistic goal The state will nevertheless continue to work diligently toward the achievement of that goal The following additional measures are designed to assist in that effort
I Improvement of the Preparation of High School Graduates for College
The low participation rate of Georgias high school graduates in postsecondary education may be attributed in part to the type of preparation students receive in the secondary schools A number of national studies attest to a climate of concern about the human costs of diminished emphasis on traditional academic subjects in the high schools One means of addressing this problemfor both minority and majority studentsin Georgia is the provision of better information to students and parents relative to the academic preparation necessary for success at the college level
The Board of Regents and the State Board of Education recently endorsed a college preparatory curriculumsee High School Preparation for Collegewhich is intended to serve as a curriculum planning guide for students who intend to enroll in college following high school graduation The description of the precollege curriculum will be distributed to each high school counselor in the state Additionally University System institutions and the public schools in their service areas will work cooperatively to ensure understanding by students of the document
The University System will work with the State Department of Education to conduct a series of workshops for the guidance and counseling of public junior and senior high schoolsand private schools that wish to participate during Fall 1983 These workshops will be conducted in each education service region in the state and will address the following topics the college preparatory curriculum methods by which counselors and administrators can encourage more students to attend college and means of better acquainting students with the wide

The System Summary
range of educational opportunities available in the System
II Student Recruitment
The University System commits itself to increasing the awareness of Georgias black citizens concerning educational opportunities available to them at System institutions Recognizing that the primary pool of black firsttime freshmen comes from the states high schools the System will institute the following measures
A Minority Recruitment Brochure The University System will develop an informational brochure focusing on the undergraduate educational opportunities available to minorities at System institutions This brochure will make clear the states commitment to providing equal educational opportunity for all Georgians and will be produced in sufficient quantity for complete distribution throughout the states public school system
B Minority Recruitment Officers Each fouryear and universitylevel institution will employ at least one minority recruitment officer on its staff by Fall 1984 Each twoyear institution will either employ a minority recruitment officer or will utilize at least one minority faculty member on a releasedtime basis to assist in recruitment activities The service areas of the fifteen twoyear colleges in the System are somewhat limiteda 30mile radius some of these colleges are and will remain quite small only three of the fifteen have residential facilities These factors make unrealistic the employment of more than a minimal staff for recruitment activities at most of the twoyear institutions
In initial version B Minority Recruitment Officers Each System institution will make a good faith effort to employ at least one minority recruitment officer on its staff by 1984 Where qualified minority recruitment personnel are not available at least one minority faculty member will be given released time to devote to recruitment activities
C High School Visitation Program Representatives of each fouryear and twoyear System institution will visit each high school in its immediate service area and particularly seek out those black students who have been identified as having taken the Scholastic Aptitude Test or the PSAT Immediate service area is defined as a 30mile radius for junior colleges and a 50mile radius for senior colleges This will provide coverage for approximately 98 percent of the states population Georgia State Universjty which has an extensive urban mission will concentrate its high school visitations in the Atlanta metropolitan area The University of Georgia and the Georgia Institute of Technology institutions with statewide missions will visit as many schools as possible at least 150 high schools in initial version in the state which have black enrollments of at least 15 percent Institutions will not be limited to visitations within their immediate service areas but will be expected to concentrate on cover completely in initial version the high schools in these areas The Central Office of the Board of Regents will obtain the names of students who have taken the SAT or PSAT and will provide these names to appropriate System institutions especially noting the names of black students The complete list will be provided to all institutions
D Academic Program Inventory The System has developed a computerized inventory of all program offerings available at University System institutions A copy of the inventory will be mailed each fall to all public and private high schools in the state for use by counselors and administrators in the advisement of students concerning the availability of opportunities in higher education
E Additional Recruitment Activities The System institutions will continue efforts to recruit students through the statewide PROBE program described in previous reports to OCR and will in addition establish new recruitment approaches for black students
1 participate in programs at black churches supporting higher education
utilize black church bulletins for announcements rela
tive to higher education
3 seek assistance from black social and civic organizations
4 invite black leaders to campus for discussion of institutional objectives and goals
5 advertise in black media publications and on black broadcasting stations
Each University System institution president will provide the Chancellor an annual assessment of all recruitment activities geared to minority students
MINORITY PRESENCESTUDENTS
The 1979 Plan committed the University System to certain actions designed to increase minority presence on the campuses of System institutions Many of those actions have been fully implemented progress has been made toward full implementation of others The University System will implement will in good faith attempt to implement in initial version the following additional measures as means of increasing minority presence in the student bodies of System institutions Some of those measures if effective will have bearing on the achievement of the parity of student enrollment goal as well
I Special Student Financial Aid Programs
Recognizing the impact that student financial aid programs
have on increasing overall black enrollment the Board of Regents will continue to work with the Governor and the Legislature toward the objective of full funding200000of the special programincluded in the 1979 Plan of Incentive Scholarship Awards designed primarily to encourage white transfer students from Albany Junior College to Albany State College although black transfer students may also qualify for these scholarships This program provides awards of 1000 per student Fifty thousand dollars was budgeted for this purpose in Fiscal Year 1981 and in Fiscal Year 1982 the budget was doubled to 100000 in Fiscal Year 1983 and Fiscal Year 1984 for a cumulative total of 300000
Further the Porter Merit Scholarships made available from private sources and initiated in Fall 1982 are designed to enhance the three TBIs Traditionally Black Institutions Under the terms of the scholarship each TBI awards 15 scholarships of 3000 each per academic year on the basis of academic merit regardless of race This program is designed to attract the academically talented to the TBIs
II Junior College Transfers to SeniorLevel Institutions
The University System will intensify efforts to increase the
number of black students transferring from public junior colleges to public seniorlevel institutions The System climate for these efforts is conducive to success since the public junior colleges senior colleges and universitylevel institutions are under a single governing Board and since students at all three levels of institutions enroll in a Core Curriculum designed to facilitate transfer among institutions without loss of credit The intercampus unit of Albany Junior College and Albany State College forms a model which with some modifications can serve other System institutions Formal consortial arrangements will be developed involving senior colleges with neighboring junior colleges The fouryear institution will work with the junior colleges in the service area to identify minority students with academic promise who are enrolled in the junior colleges These students will be encouraged to transfer to appropriate baccalaureate programs at the fouryear institution
III Retention Measures
The University Systems success in reaching minority enrollment goals as well as increasing the level of racial balance in System institutions will be enhanced by the implementation of more effective measures relating to student retention The System will continue to utilize its Developmental Studies program as a major means of assisting those entering students with academic deficiencies that threaten their academic suc

cess at the collegiate level Two additional programs will be implemented
A Summer Enrichment Programs Beginning in the summer quarter 1984 six System institutions will establish pilot enrichment programs for minority students with identified academic deficiencies who have been admitted for the fall quarter
In the initial version Each fouryear institution will establish an enrichment program for minority students with identified academic deficiencies who have been admitted for the fall quarter These summer preparatory sessions which will be offered for three years will be designed to orient students to college life and will provide noncredit remedial assistance in reading mathematics and writing as well as enrichment in the sciences Career counseling and instruction in study skills will be offered Followup tutoring services will be made available to the students throughout the ensuing academic year Minority students may attend the Summer Enrichment Program without payment of tuition All other fees will apply
Following the third year a formal evaluation of program results will be conducted to determine the desirability of program continuance and the possibility of its expansion
B Minority Advising Program Each institution in the University System will develop a Minority Advising Program In the initial version Effective immediately each institution in the University System will develop a Minority Advising Program The activities in these programs will focus on Minority Advising Units which will be composed of black students in the predominately white schools and white students in the predominately black schools The units will be coordinated through the Office of Academic Affairs on each campus and will work closely with minority students during their first year of attendance Advising Units will be composed of six to ten students and will be coordinated by a specially trained faculty member or student affairs officer This program is intended to supplement not to replace the normal academic advising activities
Elaborative material in this section essentially the same in the revised version as in the initial version provides for selection training and performance of Minority Advisors for activities of Minority Advising Units for offering on a volunteer basis of sophomorelevel services similar to those of the Minority Advising Program for followup on dropouts for special individual counseling for students placed on probation for utilization of several measures in behalf of recruitment of minority students and for submission by the president of each institution to the Chancellor of an annual report summarizing the work of the Minority Advising Units
IV Black Enrollment in Graduate and Professional Programs
The University System is committed to increasing black enrollment in graduate and professional programs in which minorities are underrepresented While the System has made substantial progress in increasing minority enrollment in law veterinary medicine and dentistry progress has not been as positive in certain other disciplines Full achievement of enrollment goals in medicine even though there has been some progress is impeded by competition with medical schools at Morehouse College Emory University and Mercer University within the state and at Howard University and Meharry Medical College outofstate In areas such as engineering it is increasingly difficult to convince promising baccalaureate graduates both majority and minority to forego for enrollment in graduate programs the high salaries they can command by immediate employment following graduation
The Regents Opportunity Scholarship Program has been helpful in achievement of the progress that has been made Current funding for that program is at the level of 500000 per year as agreed to in the Plan This program will not only continue to be a priority of the University System in future funding requests of the Governor and the Legislature but will be recommended for an increased level of funding each year for at least the next three years In the initial version Funding
will be sought from the Legislature to increase the levei of funding to 1 million per year effective with the budget or fiscal year 198485
As an additional measure the University System will develop an Identification Program in an effort to encourage promising black baccalaureate graduates to enroll in graduate or professional schools The following procedures will be utilized
1 During the fall quarter of each year each fouryear institution will submit to the Regents Central Office a list of promising black baccalaureate students who will graduate during the year and have at least 30 275 in initial version grade point average This list will be distributed to all graduate schools in the System for recruiting purposes
2 Each fouryear institution in the System will conduct a seminar during the winter quarter to advise its senior students on graduate and professional opportunities available in the University System Materials to be distributed will be prepared by the Regents Central Office and will include specific information such as admissions requirements including test scores academic programs available and financial aid availability at the various institutions offering graduate and professional programs Special emphasis will be given to black students enrolled in the institution at this seminar
MINORITY PRESENCEFACULTY AND STAFF
Current economic conditions in higher education greatly restrict the development of minority hiring plans that are not geared to tenuretracking Any successful hiring plan must be designed to improve the prospects for longterm minority employment and the development of a permanent black faculty cadre Additional emphasis will be given to the responsibility of System institutions to maintain strong affirmative action efforts in the area of affirmative action efforts in initial version The Board of Regents and the Chancellor will direct System presidents to take an active role in institutional efforts to identify black candidates for faculty and administrative positions The Chancellor will utilize all possible means not only to reinforce his and the Boards position that affirmative action is among the top priorities of the University System but also to stress the presidents direct responsibility for the implementation of effective programs of affirmative action at the institutional level In the initial version The Board of Regents and the Chancellor of the University System will continue to encourage presidents to take an active role in institutional efforts to identify black candidates for faculty and administrative positions The Chancellor will frequently reinforce his and the Boards strong position on affirmative action before as many faculty and administrative groups as possible
The Chancellor will direct that each System president separate from the institutions affirmative action plan prepare a Plan for Administrative Staffing for his approval This plan which will cover a threeyear period and will be updated annually during that period will be based on a projection with regard to the staffing of major administrative positions For the purpose of this Addendum major administrative positions are defined as follows at all institution levels the positions of chief academic business and student affairs officers and all other officers of administration reporting directly to the president the positions of academic administrative officers at the division or equivalent level at the junior colleges the positions of academic administrative officers at the division or dean level at the senior colleges the positions of academic administrative officers at the dean level at the universities In the more complex institutions the definition also encompasses all secondlevel management positions eg assistant or associate vice presidents associate deans assistants to the vice president or dean etc which report to a chief administrative officer within the institutions administrative structure
The initial staffing plan will identify current and anticipated vacancies and any new positions to be established The plan will outline in detail the recruitment measures to be utilized in
18
The System Summarv
the identification of minority candidates for these positions Further the plan will include an identification of those administrative areas which will be targeted for intensive efforts in minority recruitment and will specify the nature of those efforts Any recruitment measures identified will be designed to ensure that extra effort is made to provide fair and equitable access of minority candidates to the employment process The ultimate objective of the plan is an increase in minority presence in major administrative positions
Each administrative staffing plan must be approved by the Chancellor Prior to his approval the Chancellor will schedule a meeting with each System president to review and possibly to revise the plan submitted The Chancellor and president will establish objectives for minority employment in major administrative positions Following approval of the plan each subsequent recommendation for employment of an individual in a position covered within the plan must detail if the individual is not a minority candidate the extra efforts made to identify minority candidates for the position If such efforts are not deemed satisfactory the recommendation will be returned to the institution for further consideration
Along with the annual update of the staffing plan each System president will submit an evaluation of the progress made at the institution in increasing minority presence in major administrative positions This evaluation will be reviewed in terms of established objectives by the Chancellor who may then offer further direction designed to strengthen institutional efforts
In a further effort to increase minority presence at the administrative level the University System will identify each year a maximum of ten black faculty members employed within the System who already hold the earned doctorate in an academic discipline for participation in an Administrative Internship Program These faculty members will not have had administrative experience beyond the department head senior colleges and universities or division head junior colleges levels The Institute of Higher Education at the University of Georgia will have responsibility for overall direction of the program The initial version indicated that establishment of the Administrative Internship Program would be contingent upon funding by the Legislature
An intensive summer instructional program will be designed by the institution for pretraining purposes Following completion of the pretraining session each intern will be placed at a predominately white institution and assigned directly to the presidents office for an academic year The internship may not be served at the faculty members home institution The intern will be provided with basic experiences in a variety of administrative areas but will concentrate however in a specific area
The basic purpose of this program is the development of an inhouse pool of trained minority administrators It is anticipated that many of the interns upon completion of their program may be employed in administrative positions at the host institution thereby contributing to the further desegregation of the administrative structure at that institution
The administrative intern will continue to receive hisher full budgeted salary for the year in addition to receiving a relocation allowance The maximum total in initial version annual cost of the program is estimated to be 500000 The program if funded deleted from initial version will continue for a period of three years A thorough program evaluation will be conducted annually and at the end of the threeyear period a determination will be made with regard to program continuation
Certain additional measures will be implemented in an effort to increase the level of minority employment in faculty and administrative positions The implementation of these measures will be the responsibility of the Regents Central Office The measures include
1 the conduct of a survey of all graduate institutions
in the United States in an effort to locate black doctoral candidates who may have an interest in a career in higher education and establishment of direct contact with as many of
the students as possible to discuss the merits of a career in the University System
2 a reorganization of the procedures utilized by the Applicant Clearinghouse to ensure that black applicants are aware of available job opportunities in the University System including relocation of administrative responsibility for this activity to the affirmative action office both at the University of Georgia and within the Board of Regents Central Office
3 the establishment of a black vita bank to assist institutions in locating black faculty and administrators
4 the development of a comprehensive procedures manual for implementation of affirmative action in the University System
In addition to the measures outlined above the University System will annually conduct a Recruitment Mission to major universities in the Midwest the Midwest and the Northeast in initial version which produce significant numbers of black doctoral graduates The recruitment team will consist of representatives from System institutions presidents or academic vice presidents and from the Regents Central Office The purpose of these missions will be to establish contacts with graduate deans and placement officers and with individuals who might be interested in University System employment In effect these missions will be designed to establish a network which will be an ongoing source for the identification of potential minority applicants for University System positions
In 1982 the University System utilized the services of Clark Phipps Clark and Harris Inc to advise in the area of recruitment of black faculty and administrators at predominately white colleges and universities A copy of the report of the consulting group and a copy of a memorandum from the Chancellor of the University System to System presidents are attached Appendix reference The recommendations in the report will be utilized where possible as the basis for further action in the area of minority faculty and administrative employment
CAMPUS ENHANCEMENTTBIS
The Board of Regents agreed to seek a Special Capital Outlay Cash Appropriation of 1 million for each of five consecutive years for each of three TBIs to be used for campus improvements
The Board has requested these special capital outlay funds for each of the years since the 1979 Plan was approved and the General Assembly of Georgia has partially funded the requests For the Fiscal Year 1980 1 million was allocated in the supplemental budget 1 million was also allocated in Fiscal Year 1981 05 million was allocated in Fiscal Year 1982 no allocation was approved for Fiscal Year 1983 05 million has been allocated for Fiscal Year 1984 for a cumulative total of 3 million
The Board will continue to work with the Governor and the Legislature in pursuit of funding for campus enhancement at the TBIs
NEW BUILDINGSTBIS
The Research Building committed at Fort Valley State College in the 1979 Plan has been constructed at a total cost in excess of 2 million Funds in the amount of 3 million have been approved for the construction of the Joint Continuing Education Center for Savannah State CollegeArmstrong State College Design and plans are complete for buildings at Albany State CollegeCriminal Justice Fort Valley State College Farm and Community Life and Savannah State College Business Administration funds have not been available for their construction deleted from initial version The Board of Regents will continue to consider the importance of these projects as capital priorities of the whole system are determined on the basis of need and of available funding In initial version The Board of Regents will continue to request from the General Assembly the necessary capital funds

Thank you for allowing us to join you today We want you to know that all of us who serve on this constitutional board will work faithfully and fervently in the service of this beautiful goddess called Education and we are looking to you to be our Simon of Education We have a steep road ahead and we need your help and support When you leave office be it four years or eight years from now we want you to be known as Joe Frank Harris the Protector of Education
This country will prosper and remain free will be productive and will continue to be the last bastion of the free world only through the education of our children and our childrens children We must see to it that our youth are afforded a good solid education because they are the golden hope of our tomorrows the greatest hope that we have One of my ancestors Plato stated that The direction in which education starts a man will determine his future life You Governor and we the Regents of the State of Georgia must see to that We have the responsibility to produce the leaders of tomorrow We must provide equal access of admission to all able applicants We must provide competent professors to train their minds and help them bridge the gap between ability and performance
Allow me to quote John Steinbeck Three real teachers in a lifetime are the very best of luck I have come to believe that a great teacher is a great artist and that there are as few as there are any other great artists Teaching might even be the greatest of the arts since the medium is the human mind and spirit My three had these things in common They all loved what they

The System Summary
College Participation
A report on College Participation Rates and Their Determinants was presented to the Board of Regents at the August 910 meeting by E Beth Schwarzmueller assistant vice chancellor for research An executive summary of the report follows
The purpose of this study was to determine college participation rates for Georgia and the nation to identify determinants of these participation rates and to make recommendations for improving the participation rate in Georgia
The college participation rate was defined as the 1980 Census count of college enrollment compared to the adult population ages 1544 Using this definition Georgia ranked 43rd out of the 50 states and 11th out of the 14 SREB states in college participation
The percent of a states population residing in urbanized areas or in places of 2500 or more inhabitants the percent of the population 25 years and older with four or more years of college and the high school enrollment rate were the best predictors of participation rate The high school graduation rate the number of colleges per square mile and per capita the current expenditures per pupil in average daily attendance in public elementary and secondary schools and per capita income showed a small but not statistically significant relationship with the participation rate
Based on these determinants and their relationship to the four barriers to universal higher education motivational geographic academic financial the following recommendations for increasing the participation rate in Georgia were developed
Motivational Barrier
The decision to pursue a college education is made at an early age Students in eighth grade are making choices about their high school curriculum that will affect their later decision to attend college University System institutions should strive to work with local school systems to remove the motivational barrier to higher education
1 University System institutions should develop workshops for all high school counselors and administrators in

were doing They did not Tell they catalyzed a burning desire to know Under their influence the horizons sprung wide and fear went away and the unknown became knowable But most important of all the Truth that dangerous stuff became beautiful and very precious
We want to assure you Governor that we the Regents do well understand the word responsibility Winston Churchill said The price of greatness is responsibility We want to serve the State of Georgia by giving her a great educational system It is our responsibility and our obligation and it is our highest priority
In closingT S Eliot in his poem The Hollow Man writes of those with direct eyes that ability to focus on what needs to be done and not be distracted until the goal is
reached
Governor this Board has that gift
Rates Subject of Report
their service area The purpose of these programs would be to communicate the broad offerings of the University System academic and career the importance of the appropriate preparation for college work and the availability of developmental studies and study skill programs
2 Institutions should bring junior high and high school students 7th to 11th grades to the campus to familiarize them with the University System facilities and faculties This can be done in two ways selfsupporting public service programs in academics athletics or music and scholarship programs in selected areas eg Georgia Techs Minorities in Technical Education and West Georgias Outstanding Minority Student Enrichment Program
Many of those states with high participation rates have well developed programs for adults entering college for the first time or those returning to update skills for reentering the job market
3 Representatives of University System institutions should meet with members of the business community to ensure that the college is providing programs in areas needed in the market place The availability of these programs should be communicated to the adult population in the service area through the media and the business community
4 University System institutions should develop recruitment orientation and student service programs to meet the needs of the older student
Geographic Barrier
Ninetyeight percent of Georgias population now reside within thirty miles of the first two years of college However the attracting distance of a college is less than its commuting distance so System institutions must seek ways to extend their programs to all counties in their service areas Students may try college when it is offered near home and then be willing to commute to continue their education
5 University System institutions should offer a limited number of courses at off campus locations in all counties with adequate population in their service area Regular admission standards should be required
Academic Barrier
The fact that more than 10 of Georgias high school age population ages 1417 are not enrolled in school and that 35 of Georgias 17 year old population do not graduate is very disturbing The Board of Regents and the State Board of Education should work together to decrease this dropout rate
6 University System institutions should support efforts of the State Department of Education and the local school systems to decrease the dropout rate and improve the academic skills of the students
7 The recently endorsed precollege curriculum should be made a requirement for college admissions as soon as possible
8 The Board of Regents should work with the State Board of Education to implement the recommendations of the National Commission on Excellence in Education

Participation Rate Continued from Page 3
The admissions requirement of SAT scores is a perceived academic barrier to some older nontraditional students
9 System institutions should promote the new program of provisional admissions for those adults who have been out of high school for eight years or more and have never attended college Institutions should also conduct periodic workshops for older students who will be taking the SAT
Financial Barrier
The financial barrier is probably one reason why the overall participation rate is low and the participation rate for blacks is more than 10 lower than the participation rate for whites in Georgia
10 Institutions should continue their efforts to provide financial aid to needy students and consider expansion of scholarship programs which make awards on the basis of academic talent
Related Study Published in 1969
Historically participation has been defined as the collegegoing rate of high school graduates The last major study of participation rates in Georgia was a study of College Enrollment of Georgias 1968 High School Graduates completed by the Georgia Educational Improvement Council and published in 1969 In this study college admissions officers from all institutions of higher education in Georgia were surveyed The data provided actual numbers of Georgia high school graduates attending college in Georgia
In 1968 there were 53370 public high school graduates In 1982 there were 64473 graduates for an increase of 21 At the same time the University System of Georgia increased from 26 to 33 institutions and fall enrollment increased from 76231 to 136812 or 795 The stability of collegegoing rates and the difference in the rates of increase for high school graduates and University System enrollment reflect the growth of adults in higher education Through the increased participation of nontraditional students females and minorities and greater accessibility more adults are returning to college The collegegoing rate of high school graduates is no longer an adequate definition of college participation
More recently studies of participation have compared college enrollment to population figures Age ranges of collegeage 1824 adult 1564 or 1544 or total population have been used

The System Summary
New Major Sequence Approved Degree Dropped
A new major in computer science at Georgia Southern College was authorized by the Board of Regents at the August 910 meeting At the same meeting a new sequence of courses was approved for Albany State College and an existing masters degree was discontinued at Columbus College All three changes are effective beginning Fall Quarter 1983
Georgia Southern College
The new major in computer science will be offered under the existing Bachelor of Science degree
In 1971 the department of mathematics at Georgia Southern College initiated an emphasis in Computer Science under the major in mathematics of the Bachelor of Science degree The emphasis has steadily grown to an enrollment of over 100 students during the last academic year The increased demand from employers for specific degrees in Computer Science led members of the department to request that this concentration be upgraded to a major The program is expected to enroll approximately 100 students the first year and grow to 140 by the third year Of this number 1015 are expected to be minorities
The major resources for the program include a Burroughs B2800 a microcomputer laboratory in the library access to the systemwide computer network and a Title III grant from which 13 microcomputers will be purchased for use in the department The initiation of the program will require no additional funding
Albany Junior College
The existing Associate of Applied Science degree will be expanded to include a sequence of courses in Trade and Industrial Education from Valdosta State College
Through this cooperative arrangement vocational teachers in the high schools and technical institutions may seek training that will lead to teacher certification Credits earned in this program may be transferred to one of the bachelor degree programs in vocational education located throughout the State The program is expected to enroll approximately 15 students and there will be no additional cost to either institution
Columbus College
The existing MEd degree with a major in special educationinterrelated studies will be discontinued effective Fall Quarter 1983
The request for discontinuation of this program results from a yearlong study of potential demand and teacher certification requirements Columbus College President Francis J Brooke has indicated that students currently involved in the program will be accommodated

Implementation Schedule To id For Needs Assessment Report
An implementation schedule has been developed for the 115 recommendations contained in the report entitled The Eighties and Beyond A Commitment to Excellence which was adopted by the Board of Regents in February 1983 as a planning guide
The schedule which sets priorities dates and strategies was presented by Vice Chancellor for Research and Planning Haskin R Pounds to the Board of Regents at the August 910 meeting
The Regents staff has studied the 115 recommendations and has arranged theminto four categories 1 General Continuing Long Range 2 SpecificsBeginning 1983 3 Specifics Beginning 1984 and 4 Specifics 1985 and Beyond
Priority rankings first second third or maintenance of current effort have been assigned to each recommendation as well as target dates for initiation and completion Later target dates do not always imply a lower priority for a recommendation In some cases later dates were chosen for high priority recommendations because additional funding will not be available until the FY 1985 budget
The staff members and institutions responsible have been identified and possible implementation strategies have been listed In some cases time and circumstance may necessitate changes in priority schedule or implementation
In August 1981 the Board of Regents initiated a comprehensive statewide needs assessment designed to provide a foundation for charting the course for public higher education in the state for the remainder of the eighties and beyond That assessment resulted in the report which now has an implementation schedule

Desegregation Continued from Front Cover
which in effect consists of amendments to the Plan approved in 1979 was submitted as the result of a court order by Judge John H Pratt United States District Court for the District of Columbia in the case of Adams vs Bell et al This court order requires that Georgia as well as certain other states submit a plan containing concrete and specific measures that reasonably ensure that all the goals of its 1978 desegregation plan will be met no later than the fall of 1985 The order directs that if the state does not submit an acceptable plan Title VI enforcement proceedings be initiated no later than September 15 1983
Dr Propst attended along with members of the Governors staff a meeting with OCR officials on June 16 at which time it was disclosed that OCR was unable to accept the amendments to the Plan submitted by the Governor While OCR found many of the activities in the Addendum to be promising additional information relating to these activities was requested along with certain additional commitments
The substance of the comments made by OCR officials at this meeting was confirmed in a letter June 30 to Governor Harris from Harry M Singleton Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights This letter requested a detailed description of specific measures that will be taken to recruit and retain black students containing both specific applications and other measures appropriate to each institution actions to alleviate the adverse effect that the Georgia Regents Test has on the graduation of black students information to assess progress toward graduate goals by field of study institutional employment plans for each traditionally white institution and additional steps to further enhance and desegregate the States traditionally black public institutions While the Addendum as submitted was unacceptable Singleton indicated that the submission of acceptable amendments to the court prior to September 15 would obviate the need for initiating enforcement proceedings The deadline given for submission of these amendments to OCR was August 1
Following the June 16 meeting with OCR officials at which notice was given that the Addendum was unacceptable the Board of Regents met in called session on June 20 followed by a meeting of presidents of University System institutions The purpose of these meetings was to discuss the implications of OCRs rejection of the Addendum and to determine those actions necessary as a result of that rejection Each institution was asked to prepare timespecific schedules for the implementation of certain Addendum activities following outlines furnished by the Regents staff employment of minority recruitment officers high school visitation program minority advising program and specialized recruitment activities Each institution was also directed to submit a revision of its affirmative action plan Regents staff prepared concurrently schedules and implementing strategies for thirteen additional activities specified in the Addendum All of this additional
information was compiled by June 30 and submitted to the Office of the Governor on July 1 This information was included as part of the Governors second submission to OCR on August 3
Dr Propst reported to the Board that following submission of this material to the Governor Dr Robert Cannon assistant vice chancellor for affirmative action met with OCR officials and received further direction on the nature of revisions necessary with regard to institutional affirmative action plans Based on this information each institution was asked to revise its earlier submission
The University System is committed to the implementation of all Addendum activities In a memorandum to Presidents dated July 8 Dr Propst stated The OCR rejection does not relieve the University System of its obligation to fulfill the commitments included in the Addendum The Board of Regents has directed that we are to implement the activities regardless of the nature of any OCR or court action We therefore expect each institution to proceed with the schedule of activities submitted to this office on June 30 Periodically we will be requesting that you provide us with specific information in the form of progress reports
New CrossEnrollment Agreement Begins in Fall
A crossenrollment agreement between Emanuel County Junior College and Georgia Southern College has been approved by the Board of Regents at the August 910 meeting Under the agreement Army Reserve Officers Training Corps instruction becomes available at Emanuel County Junior College effective Fall Quarter 1983
Currently junior college transfer students have little opportunity to enroll in ROTC programs when they begin their third year of college having missed the basic courses which are prerequisite for the last two years of college military training With this program students will have opportunities not only to earn commissions but also to compete for ROTC scholarships
All instruction provided at Emanuel County Junior College will be done by members of the military science faculty at Georgia Southern College and no military obligations will be incurred by students participating in ROTC instruction It is estimated that five to ten students will transfer from Emanuel County Junior College to Georgia Southern College following completion of the sophomore year Emanuel County Junior College has budgeted 300 for the first year of instruction

Board Hears Savannah Citizens Committee Report on Colleges
N Carson Branan representing the Savannah Citizens Committee on Higher Education presented a report to the Board of Regents at the August 910 meeting His presentation summarized the committees study conclusions and recommendations regarding Armstrong State College and Savannah State College His report follows
Committee Members Listed
A Citizens Committee on Higher Education consisting of five black and five white citizens was formed in November 1981 to examine the education delivery system of our two local fouryear colleges in Savannah Georgia Committee members are
Carson Branan President Great Southern Federal Savings Bank Robert Bess Counselor Shuman Middle School Chatham County Board of Education Reverend Matthew Brown Pastor St John Baptist Church John Cay III President Palmer Cay Inc Curtis V Cooper Executive Director Westside Urban Health Center Betty Ellington Administrative Coordinator Exceptional Childs Program Chatham County Board of Education Roy L Jackson President Jackson Brothers Chevron Service Center Nick Mamalakis Retired Jones Hill Mercer Insurance James M Piette Executive Vice President Union Camp Corporation and Jim Weeks Vice President Fox Weeks Funeral Home
With funding from the Savannah Port Authority and the Lane Foundation we engaged the Office of Adult Learning Services of The College Board to assemble a team of experts to conduct an indepth study of our two colleges Our findings and recommendations were carefully developed We are firmly convinced that we are on solid ground and we know as citizens as business and professional people that to ignore our findings is a serious threat to the future wellbeing of our community and a condemnation of many Savannah area kids now and in the future to mediocrity in higher education
Six Findings Discussed
Now for the Committees findings
I have to be brief by highlighting the findings
First although both colleges are fouryear colleges most students use them as junior colleges Few stay to complete a fouryear program of study Many students who enter each college are not ready for college and must enroll in remedial classes These classes are not slow college courses the content ranges from late elementary school through junior high school
Second both schools are victims of an integration plan that has not worked The program swap that took Armstrongs Business School and Savannah States Education School left the colleges broken You just cant have a complete college without business or education Since that swap enrollment has declined at both schools and the small increase in integration has resulted primarily from Savannah State losing black students and Armstrong losing white students
Third both schools are more than collegesthey serve im
portant functions that are not necessarily educational Savannah State in particular is a social economic and cultural institution for primarily black people in Savannah and while this is important it does not enhance the education excellence for either black or white kids
Fourth because many Savannah public high school graduates are not ready for college a unique burden is placed on local colleges A burden they are not prepared to handle They lack the personnel or the time to bring these students up to an acceptable college level
Fifth both colleges admit too many unqualified students The admission standards of neither college is very high yet neither college is adequately equipped to transform those kids into qualified college students This is probably the most serious problem both schools face
Sixth the business and professional people in this community do not give these schools the support they must have to meet the educational needs of the community The community does not provide needed scholarship money for gifted students and it does not hire graduates from the two colleges for challenging jobs There are many reasons and some of the more visible are included in the previous conclusions I summarized yet there are others The lack of well rounded athletic programs and minimum community relations programs coupled with a perceived racist attitude of some of those involved contribute to this problem
Alternatives Considered
Our conclusions in my judgment overwhelmingly support the hypothesis that Savannahs colleges are not ready to meet the educational challenges of the future Several recommendations were considered Among them were the merger of the two colleges We rejected this recommendation for three reasons First merger will not solve the biggest problem and that is preparing unqualified high school graduates for college Second to unite the two schools by merger will not improve either school because it will do nothing to change attitudes prevalent in the Savannah academic community nor will it bring in new talent so badly needed Finally merger will not ensure integration of the student body Without a fresh start it will probably result in a further exodus of capable students
TwoPart Recommendation
We concluded the longterm best interest of the community could be served by the following twopart recommendation
First develop a Savannah Community College Its primary mission would be to develop Savannah high school graduates for college It would provide open door admission with special developmental studies designed to equip for college unqualified graduates who had the determination to succeed When students graduated from the community college they could transfer to the university in Savannah or any other state university in Georgia This community college would be on the campus of one of the existing colleges We think this will create greater integration of student bodies than any other

The System Summary
plan because it will prepare underachievers to take their place in a normal college classroom
Second either the University of Georgia or Georgia State University would open a major branch in Savannah operating with standards identical to those of the main campus It would be located on the campus where either Savannah State or Armstrong had been This would provide a much needed expanded program in South Georgias largest urban center and we believe it could be done through this vehicle with little increase in cost We know that it would provide greater integration of university faculty because those blacks at Savannah State who could fill positions in the new university division would increase the minority representation in the University System We considered in depth including the Georgia Institute of Technology as our parent for the university branch but after much discussion eliminated it because we know that it would turn away 9098 of the Savannah area high school graduates So at least for the next few decades almost all of our kids would have to leave their area for college
Conclusion
Included in our recommendation is the strong provision that these new schools be developed preserving the black control that now exists We are not naming names but we are saying that we think this can be carried out with one of the new schools headed by a black person We believe an important consideration in whatever is done in Savannah should include both strong black representation and integration of the student body and we think our plan can achieve those results while materially improving higher education in Savannah Our sincere plea today is that you study our recommendation and implement those parts that can work for the long term benefit of our community You must approach our problem with imagination and creativity or you are dooming Savannah the mother city of Georgia to a future of mediocrity

Quality Improvement Repa
BOARD SEEKS 37 PERCENT
A GENERAL STATE APPROPRIATION OF 804858371 for the University System of Georgia for the 198485 Fiscal Year beginning July 1 1984 has been requested by the Board of Regents
This amount includes an increase of 218210009 372 percent over the general state appropriation of 586648362 for the 198384 Fiscal Year Of this requested amount 102 million is in the category of capital outlay
The requests were approved by the Board of Regents at the September 1314 meeting and have been transmitted to the State Office of Planning and Budget They are subject to revision and further action by Governor Joe Frank Harris and the 1984 Session of the General Assembly
Included in the general state appropriation request is a specially identified item of 36798000 for merit salary increases averaging 6jj percent for University System employees
IDENTIFIED HIGHLIGHTS
Some of the highlights of the request for the state appropriation for 198485 as identified by Dr Crawford
Quality Improvement Fund Needed
6184000 is requested for use exclusively for Quality improvement in programs and services at University System institutions
These funds would be used for nonrecurring expenditures which will enhance the quality of the education offered by the University System Last year we requested almost the same amount 6016000 for quality improvement but received no funds in this category stated Dr Crawford in a letter to Governor Joe Frank Harris which was reviewed by the Board of Regents at their September meeting
The use to which we intended to put that money had we received any was to purchase badly needed equipment for research and teaching Since the request was denied the equipment shortage has grown to be even more acute and most of the quality improvement funds that may be forthcoming in Fiscal Year 1985 must go toward alleviating it said Dr Crawford
irs Other Items Highlighted
INCREASE IN STATE FUNDS
The System is still in need of computers the ancillary hardware and the associated software Microcomputers constitute a significant part of the total computerrelated need and would be used to reduce the load on the University System Computer Network by removing from it many of the smaller problems for which microcomputers are quite adequate Microcomputers would also be used to increase computer literacy among our students and our faculties indicated Dr Crawford
The Chancellor said in his letter to the Governor that another problem has surfaced which needs addressing with a portion of any such funds which may be available That is the problem of faculty burnout or faculty obsolescence The

Building Priorities Altered At Three Institutions
The Board of Regents gave approval for the rearranging of the priority of the first three building projects on the Regents FY1985 Capital Outlay Budget Request for major academic capital projects at their September meeting
The order of priority was established as follows
1 Albany State College Criminal Justice Building C60
This is an academic building of classrooms laboratories and offices primarily oriented to criminal justice The design has been completed and the estimated construction cost is 3250000
2 Fort Valley State CollegeFarm and Community Life Building C54

Education Major Approved At West Georgia College
A major in Secondary Science Education was approved by the Board of Regents at their September meeting for West Georgia College
The Board approved the request of President Townsend that West Georgia College be authorized to offer a major in Secondary Science Education under the existing Bachelor of Science in Education degree structure in the School of Education effective Fall quarter 1983
The program is designed to attract more students in science education and to give them broader preparation in the sciences The program adheres to the broad field science concept incorporated into the revised criteria for science teachers in Georgia The program will offer three options with an emphasis in each of the following biology chemistry and physics
The program was initiated in response to the critical shortage of science teachers that exists not only in Georgia but als in the nation Many of the science courses presently in effect are being taught by outoffield teachers who have limited preparation for teaching the sciences

Budget Continued from Front Cover
Chancellor indicated that if the Quality Improvement Program is fully funded 1184000 will be used for faculty development programs leaving 5 million for equipment
Dr Crawford stated that an allocation of 1184000 would permit our institutions to have minisabbatical programs and to provide other intellectually enriching experiences for those faculty members from whom the University System and its students could expect the greatest return
Other Highlights
In the category of Major RepairsRehabilitation the request has been made for 18659000 According to the Chancellor this money is badly needed to address the multitude of repairs and rehabilitation projects required to keep the approximately 1200 buildings in the University System in good working order We have requests in hand for the rehabilitation projects at our institutions with total project costs in excess of 23 million
An estimated expenditure of these funds would be distributed as follows Renovations 6600000 Roofs 5600000 Heating Ventilating and Air Conditioning 3700000 Floor Covering 1000000 Electrical Systems 1000000 and General Repairs 759000
Dr Crawford has requested 1717500 for the Desegregation Program which would be used for stable funding of the Special Programs at Savannah State College Fort Valley State College and Albany State College Included in this amount are special scholarships at Albany State College for Albany Junior College graduates and continuing education programs at the three traditionally black institutions
In his letter to the Governor Dr Crawford outlined the proposal of allowing institutions generating income from research grants and contracts to retain eightyfive percent of the indirect cost recoveries overhead income earned on those projects The request was made to phase this in at the rate of approximately fifteen percent a year We are underestimating our Indirect Cost recoveries by about that amount each year cumulatively until we reach the eightyfive percent level of retention When we reach eightyfive percent stated the Chancellor we will have a positive incentive to offer our institutions for being active in research
In his letter to the Governor the Chancellor addressed the issue of student fees Fiscal Year 1985 will be the second consecutive year in which student fees will have been raised by 15 percent The students have accepted these increases without too much complaint said Crawford However they were led to believe that their contribution was only part of the effort to provide more money for higher education and that the state had a parallel obligation to fund the new formula They were disappointed when they learned that the only component of the formula which was fully funded in Fiscal Year 1984 was the part they contributed
At the September Board meeting the Regents approved a 15 tuition increase to begin in summer quarter 1984
A total of 102295559 has been requested in the area of capital outlay for Fiscal Year 1985 A total of 96025559 was designated for major building projects A total of 3270000 was requested for capital outlay for use in renovations at Eugene Talmadge Memorial Hospital Three million was earmarked for Capital Outlay HEW
In the continuing negotiations with the Office of Civil Rights we are attempting to obtain permission to bro len the categories for which these monies may be expend d said Dr Crawford Currently we are limited to using them for campus enhancements at our three traditionally black institutions not to include among those enhancements major rehabilitation or new construction We hope to remove those restrictions and even to use the funds for major new programs at the same three institutions
The Chancellor also requested an adequate amount of money be provided for Teachers Retirement The 1985 Fiscal Year request is for 65137184 which is an 8037000 or 141 percent increase over the budgeted state appropriation of 57100184 in Fiscal Year 1984

APUBLICATION OFTHE UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA VOL 19 NO 9OCTOBER 1983
BOARD SETS METHOD FOR REDUCING FY84 BUDGET
A 91 million reduction of University System spending for the 198384 fiscal year as requested by Governor Joe Frank Harris was approved by the Board of Regents at the October 1112 meeting
This amount was stipulated as the University Systems share of the total reduction in the overall state budget that the Governor said was necessary to offset a decline in state revenues
The Board adopted the method of reducing the state appropriation of each institution by approximately two percent The state appropriation for fiscal year 1984 was 485594176
The cuts were effective immediately but institutions were allowed the flexibility to decide how the cuts would be achieved According to Chancellor Crawford The Board of Regents will not establish guidelines for the institutions to come up with their share of the funds They have the liberty to decide whether the money is to come out of travel equipment or even personnel We are leaving those decisions up to the presidents
The Board also reduced by 120000 the state allocation to the Public Telecommunications Commission

Lockheed President Gives Engineering Education Report
A PRESENTATION ON ENGINEERING EDUCATION Was given to
the Board of Regents by Robert B Ormsby president of LockheedGeorgia Company In his report Ormsby said that Georgia ranked 13th in the nation in population in 1980 but was ranked only 23rd in the number of doctoral scientists and engineers
Technologybased industries depend on our higher educational institutions for a steady supply of welltrained graduates said Ormsby Not only do engineers command higher salaries they also capture almost twothirds of all offers from business and industry although they represent only 7 percent of the graduates
Ormsby also cited in his report that engineers have significant job security and that the unemployment rate for engineers is consistently lower than for other groups
High technology companies are particularly attracted to areas where their skilled labor pool is supported by a strong educational system said Ormsby
Ormsby made special mention of the Georgia Institute of Technology in his report to the Board Georgia Tech is clearly the leading technical university in the region and is nationally recognized by high technology industries for its sophisticated technological research programs and the quality of its graduates The recently created Advanced Technology Development Center is an important step in the right direction
In his report to the Board Ormsby cited two concerns First that we take all actions necessary and possible to provide more opportunities and more incentives for technical education in our state Second that we pursue a balanced program that responds to the needs and requirements of all levels of training
Lets face it engineering education is costly The costs per student are greater for engineering than for the humanities and for most other undergraduate fields Despite the growth in enrollment said Ormsby there has been a steady decrease in the dollars per equivalent fulltime student appropriated by our government This causes me great concern because of the long term effect it is bound to have on the quality of education that Georgia Tech can offer
Ormsby summed up his report by saying Quality engineering education is a vital component in the growth of our states economy and our engineering schools must be prepared to meet the demands of the future

The Board of Regents authorized at the November 78 meeting the utilization of a formal procedure for review and improvement of teacher education programs whose cumulative graduates for the past five years have had a passing rate of less than 70 on the Teacher Certification Test TCT administered by the State Department of Education
The Board recommended that the procedure consist of the following steps
1 Each program not meeting the criterion specified above will be placed on probationary review status for a period of two years
2 Each institution will be required to prepare for submission to the Chancellors office by July 1 1984 a Plan for Improvement for each of its programs on probationary review status
Board Reaffirms Autonomy For Arm strongSavannah
At the November 78 meeting the Board of Regents reaffirmed the status of both Armstrong State and Savannah State as autonomous senior college institutions of the University System of Georgia
The Board also directed the Chancellor to begin immediately the selection process for a president at Armstrong State College They appointed a special Regents Committee to assist in the selection process The committee members named were Regent Arthur Gignilliat Jr Savannah chairman Regent John Henry Anderson Jr Hawkinsville and Regent Thomas Frier Sr Douglas
The Board asked that a high priority in the next budget request be given to the construction of the previously authorized and designed Business Administration Building at Savannah State College
Also in relation to the two institutions the Board agreed to continue existing academic program development at the two colleges and to explore possibilities for additional academi program development at each school which will best respond to the education needs of the state and community
3 Under procedures developed by the Academic Committee on Teacher Education the institution will be provided assistance in the development of its Plans for Improvement
4 After the spring 1986 administration of the TCT one of three decisions will be made with regard to each program involved removal from probationary review status continuation of probationary review status for a specified period of time or discontinuation of the program
This action was taken in response to a report from the special Task Force on Teacher Education entitled Necessary Change The report was released in February 1983 The first recommendation on that report was
For many years the Board of Regents and the State Board of Education have evaluated teacher education programs in the States colleges and universities The two boards must now move to stricter enforcement of the evaluative standards If a program is deficient it should be placed on probation If the deficiencies are not corrected the program should be abolished
The State Board of Education and the Board of Regents endorsed the report The recommendation approved by the Board is designed to implement this Task Force recommendation The procedure outlines have been developed with the full support of the State Department of Education
The procedures for providing assistance to institutions with programs on probationary review status will include the establishment of advisory groups which will visit the campuses for review of curriculum the development of specific time frames for program improvement etc If the graduates of a program on probationary review status do not pass the TCT at the rate of 70 or higher at the spring 1986 administration of the Test the extent of progress made toward that goal will determine the nature of the decision regarding the programs continuing status

Regents Approve Degree Program Changes for 5 Institutions
A Master of Science in Polymers a Bachelor of Science in Allied Health Sciences a major in mass communication and a major in computer science technology were approved by the Board of Regents at its December meeting The Board also approved the discontinuation of an Associate in Textile Management program
Georgia Institute of Technology
A request from President Joseph M Pettit that the Georgia Institute of Technology be authorized to offer the Master of Science in Polymers degree effective winter quarter of 1984 was approved by the Board
Georgia Techs School of Chemical Engineering and School of Textile Engineering began offering polymerbased courses jointly in 1973 as a part of the Multidisciplinary Certificate in Plastics Engineering By January of 1982 the number of polymer courses had reached 21 and 13 faculty members of the two schools were actively involved in teaching the polymer courses and conducting polymerbased research The number of students emphasizing polymers in their graduate studies has grown steadily since the introduction of the courses
No institution in the state of Georgia offers such a program as the one proposed by Georgia Tech and no institution exhibits the varied polymer scienceengineering expertise and close cooperation that exists between the faculties of the Tex
tile engineering and chemical engineering schools at Georgia Tech The MS degree should encourage the recruitment of students wishing to concentrate in polymers and generate recognition and growth of the polymer program at Georgia Tech
No additional funding needs beyond those already projected for the polymer program in the normal course of events are expected as a result of formally designating the MS degree
