Emphasis on education in Governor's address

Addressing the Joint Appropriations Committees on Jan. 3, Governor Zell Miller placed
special emphasis on education in his recommendations for the FY 95 supplemental
budget, explaining that education is one of two (law enforcement being the other) issues
he believes Georgians care about most.

Among the recommendations made affecting the University System are:

More than $8 million in
lottery funds for a tele-
communications initiative
that will create a system-
wide electronic library, .:t)'

enabling System units to '^^w::-.
share library resources. > *

$4 million in lottery funds
for Future Net which will
leverage $10 million from
other non-state funds and
give Georgia Tech a model,
campus-wide telecommuni-
cations system. The initia-
tive will make the Olympic
Village on Tech's campus
the most technologically
advanced ever, and means
that every Georgia Tech stu-
dent and faculty member
will have data, voice and
video connectivity.

"As you already know from my inaugural address, education is and will continue
to be the top priority of this administration, because it addresses so many of the
other challenges we face, from crime to economic development," said
Governor Zell Miller in his legislative address last week.

Recommendations for the Governor's FY 96 budget include:

A 6 percent salary increase for System employees with a commitment to
similar increases
"over the next four years
($59.9 million).

h^^

Full enrollment growth
funding in the formula ($23 .6

Funding for all eight of the
Chancellor's specific initia-
tives ($45. 1 million):

Armstrong State College classroom building and law

And $25 million for the GeorgiaResearch Alliance. "Today ' s
speech brought real focus to what can be achieved. The
Governor's rhetoric is matched by his recommendation,"
said Chancellor Stephen R. Portch. "As a teacher, I give him

an A+."

A major portion of the

Governor's address focused

on HOPE scholarship expansion.

His proposal will:

Give college students who lose their "B" average a
second chance to get their grades back up to a 3.0;

Remove the income cap to make all Georgia families
eligible;

Give students who could not go to college right out of
high school a chance to earn their way on to HOPE by
maintaining a "B" average during their first two years of
college;

Give outstanding students an incentive to become

teachers. Students obtaining a 3.6 GPA, or
better, would be provided forgivable loans for up
to $3,000 a year during their junior and senior
years. In exchange, they would pay off their loans
by teaching in Georgiapublic schools for fouryears.

Provide 1 ,000 scholarships a year of up to
$10,000 each for teachers to pursue advanced
degrees in demanding areas where there are teacher
shortages. In return, the recipients would teach in
Georgia public schools for four more years.

And add $500 per student to the Tuition Equalization
Grant for private colleges and universities, making the
total $2,500.

been appointed to the House
University System Committee:

It was the best basketball team in the history of Augusta College, %
and this year the team of 1969-70 will mark its 25th (Silver) \

Anniversary during homecoming. Members of the memorable team will be
recognized Friday, Feb. 17, at a Silver Anniversary Celebration from 7 p.m. -
9p.m. at the Sheraton Augusta, and again at the men s Homecoming game between
AC and USC-Aiken at 7:30 p.m. on Feb. 18.

Twenty-five years ago, the Jags' 27-3 record propelled coach Marvin Vanover's team to
the NAIA Nationals in Kansas City. The "silver" team attracted legions of supporters ^
so many, in fact, that the games had to be moved to ARC's gym to accommodate the j
crowds. That action caused the SGA to pass a resolution urging that a new building be
built to adequately handle the athletic needs of the college. The resolution was presented
to Gov. Lester Maddox during his visit here in February of 1970 to present a
proclamation to Vanover for the contributions he had made to the college, city, and the
sport of basketball.

Tickets for The Celebration are $50 per person and will include heavy hors d'oeuvres,
entertainment, a silent au^on, and a special presentation of the team. Further information
may be obtained by calling Athletics at 737-1626 or the AC Alumni Association ay37-

of the State of Georgia and of the United
States through the diverse accomplishments

As the final step in the scholarship competition,

Community Service Gets a Boost

A new sense of community spirit could be coming soon to the state's public high schools. Passage
of SB 196 would require, beginning in grade nine, each high school student enrolled in public
schools to complete 96 hours of community service prior to graduation. Students would be able
to divide the hours into increments served over the four-year period or complete the entire 96
hours in any one year.

The bill would provide a phase-in period for affected students graduating prior to 1999. Students
graduating in 1995 would not be required to perform any community service hours; 1996
graduates would be required to complete 24 hours; 1997 graduates would be required to complete
48 hours; and those graduating in 1998 would be required to complete 72 hours.

Local boards of education would be given the responsibility of establishing the rules, regulations
and eligibility of community service activities, in addition to the manner in which they will be
verified. Status: Read first time.

Senate Moves to Safeguard Teaching Credentials

If a new bill aimed at teachers and other school personnel passes, then anyone using false
credentials to teach would be subject to termination or suspension. SB 296 would prohibit the
creation of false and fraudulent certificates, licenses, permits, credentials or other documents
with intent to deceive; and any violation would be considered sufficient cause for termination,
suspension or non-renewal of an employment contract.

The bill would also provide the Professional Standards Commission with authority to investigate
allegations, provide investigative reports to the appropriate authorities and maintain records of
individuals found to be guilty of using these fraudulent documents. The act would be considered
a felony. Status: Read first time.

Senate Looks at Advanced Placement Test Fees

SB 282 would require postsecondary academic departments to pay for any fees charged for
advanced placement tests taken by not only any eligible public high school students, but also any
eligible private high school students. The high school principal or another designated school
official would certify the number of students taking the advanced placement test, the total fees
charged and other requested information. Status: Read first time.

SB 305 would change the organization of the Nonpublic Postsecondary Education Commission
and the manner of selecting the commission's executive director. The commission would be
assigned to the Georgia Student Finance Authority for administrative purposes only, but would
be a budget unit of the executive branch of the state government. Status: Read first time.

Legislature Moves HB 69, SB 47

HB 69 has been withdrawn from the House Education Committee and recommitted to the House
University System Committee. The bill would allow high school students who graduate with a
3.0 cumulative GPA in the college preparatory curriculum or a 3.2 in other curricula to be eligible
for a HOPE scholarship grant equal to the difference between the amount paid by Pell or other
grants and the cost of tuition at any Georgia public institution the student attends.

SB 47, which would change the definition of "eligible institution" as it pertains to enrollment of
high school students in postsecondary courses, has been read a second time in the House.

student leaders will be meeting to bring to light various issues and concerns from their
respective institutions.

The Dining Room

Augusta College Theatre will present A.R.
Gumey's The Dining Room Wednesday,
March 1, through Saturday, March 4, at 8
p.m. Matinees will be held Friday, March 3,
and Sunday, March 5, at 3 p.m. All

Maxwell Performing Arts Theatre. Tickets,
which are available at the door at performance
time, are $6. Augusta College students with a
valid AC I.D. will be admitted free.

In The Dining Room, A. R. Gumey eloquently
depicts the dying lifestyle of upper middle-
class America and the now-neglected room
which was once a vital center of family life.
Through a mosaic of interrelated vignettes-
some humorous, some touching the many
characters who comprise this social stratum
offer a nostalgic portrait of Americana.

The Augusta College production of The
Dining Room is directed by Anna Filippo.
Jeff Hermann serves as set and light designer
for the production.

Georgia Tech Leader Recognized

One of the University System of Georgia's own has been recog-
nized for his commitment to education by Georgia lawmakers.
Dr. Gerald Wayne Clough, who accepted the post as the tenth
president of the Georgia Institute of Technology in September of
1994, was recognized and welcomed by both the House and the
Senate. SR 189 and HR 279 declare that "it is with the utmost
respect for his exemplary academic accomplishments and lead-
ership that Dr. Cough is welcomed home to renew, strengthen, and lead the Georgia Institute of
Technology in its journey into the next century." Dr. Clough is the fu-st graduate of Georgia Tech
to become president of the technological university.

HB 690 would change the employer's contribution under the regents retirement plan. Effective
July 1, 1996, the University System of Georgia would contribute on behalf of each participating
employee the equivalent of 8 percent of the employee's eamable compensation. Status: read
second time.

FY 1995 Budget Passed

The University System of Georgia's FY 1995 Amended Budget has passed the House of
Representatives and the State Senate. Governor Zell Miller is expected to sign the bill. Greeted
positively by the legislators, three of the Board of Regents' special initiatives were addressed
in the amended budget. "This action is a vote of confidence in your leadership and vision," wrote
Chancellor Stephen R. Portch in his letter to the Regents.

Large projects addressed in the budget included flood recovery funds for the planning and
reconsuiiction of Albany State College, approved in the amount of $13 milhon.

During the My 1 994 flood, only three out of 41 buildings at Albany State College escaped flood
damage. Some buildings had up to 14 feet of water. The approved funds will be allocated from
lottery revenue.

Funds worth about $4 million will be transferred from the Georgia Research Alliance, a
collaboration of the state's research institutions to the Equipment, Technology and Construcdoin
Trust Fund. State funding to date of $58 million for the Georgia Research Alliance has generated
an additional $177 million.

Leaislative Update

AUGUSTA, GA
30904-2200

Student Aid Agency Created

Students in pursuit of their college degree may soon have an easier
time financing their education. With the passage of SB 363, the
Senate calls for the creation of the Georgia Student Finance
Authority. This public authority will be created to centralize the
management and administration of student aid and provide educa-
tional scholarship, grant and loan assis-
tance funded by issuing revenue bonds. The
Authority will use money appropriated for
its use by the state to administer loans and
grants. "A need exists for a means whereby
students and parents . . .can obtain low-inter-
est loans (to ease the immediate costs of
higher education) and that an adequate
guaranty... of such loans is essential to as-
sure the accessibility of private loan funds
to many students," the bill reads. "The
growth and development of this state and
nation have been. ..strongly related to the
degree to which educational opportunities
are provided to all of their citizens."

House Moves to Prohibit
Outcome-Based Methods

A bill calling for an emphasis on academic subject-based education
rather than outcome-based methods of instruction has been intro-
duced.

HB 420 defines outcome-based methods as those which are not
academically oriented, which do not include parental input and
control and which "restrict students from reaching their highest
academic potential." The bill would prohibit activities such as
group grading and peer teaching and focus instead on teacher
control, nationally normed academic tests and a numerical or letter
grading system. The bill also states that teachers shall not be
required to assign students by personality type and that they have

the authority to manage their classrooms. The goal of the bill is "to
encourage the pursuit of academic excellence rather than political
correctness" and "to require validated research for educational
programs and policies." Status: read second time.

-HB 632 would prohibit the use of calcula-
tors and computers by students as they take
curriculum-based assessments which are
given in the areas of reading, writing, math,
science and social studies. The tests assess
the effectiveness of the state's educational
programs. Status: read second time.

English Made Official Language

-SB 49 designates English as the official
language of the state of Georgia. It states
that documents filed or recorded with a state
agency must be in the official language or,
if the original document is in a language
other than the offical language, an English
translation of the document must be simul-
taneously filed. Status: passed.

American Heritage in Education Act

-SB 324 also is titled the "American Heritage in Education Act."
If passed, it will allow and encourage any teacheror administrator
in a public school district to read or post documents such as the
United States Constitution and the Constitution of Georgia, in-
cluding the preambles; the Declaration of Independence, the
Mayflower Compact; the national motto "In God We Trust;" the
national anthem and the Pledge of Allegiance. Writings, speeches,
documents and proclamations of any of the signers of the Declaration

Status: favorably reported.

Now that the campus Recycling Program is in full swing, the

cutting down on the production of unnecessary pieces of paper.
Please consider the following:

bulletin board or routing, rather than making multiple copies.

2. Share information across campus through FA C7.

3. To make lengthy items available to members of the campus community, put them on

4. Make two-sided copies whenever possible.

The Story of a gum-chewing teeny-bopper who grew up in a "Leave it to Beaver"
household only to find herself, at the age of 1 8, in the glare of international publicity
was omlined last^eek as S^nnon Faulkner kicked-off the spring quarter Cullum
Series. Ms. Faulkner, who "never expenenced any discrimination" until January of
1 993, found herself the target of intense criticism following her acceptance at The
Citadel, a state-supported, all-male military school in SouthCarolina.

After finding out her gender, the school revoked her acceptance. Faulkner and The
Citadel went to trial in May of 1994, with the judge finding in herfavor. He ordered
her admittance into the Corps of Cadets in August, but the Fourth Circuit Court of
Appeals issued a stay pending further argument. Both sides are waiting for the
outcome. The cadets at The Citadel "have been great," she said, as have all her
instructors. Single-gender education does have its worth, she said."but it does not
belong in the public sector." In 20 years, she predicted, 20 percent of The Citadel'^
students will be female.

Results from ambient air and personnel monitoring conducted at Augusta
College on March 28-30, in conjunction with a planned six-year campus
re-roofing project have been submitted by ATEC Associates, Inc., the
Atlanta consulting firm hired to conduct the testing.

The results, released to Board of Regents and campus officials,
demonstrate that all buildings targeted for further investigation by the
initial survey are well below permissible exposure levels set by the
Occupational Safety and Health Administrations. State agencies are not
required to comply with OSHA regulations. However, in the interest of
ensuring public health, campus officials and project managers have
applied OSHA and other industry standards in addressing all
environmental aspects of the construction project.

Monitoring samples were collected from the interiors and exteriors of 14
campus facilities. As a result of the sampling, two interior areas on
campus have been identified in recommendations for action. The
basement of Payne Hall and a partitioned space in Warehouse Building
201 have been recommended for interior mitigation.

In addition, the exterior of 12 buildings with asbestos-containing transite
roofs have been targeted for precautionary mitigation.

All of these buildings meet OSHA standards for permissible exposure
levels. However, each have been recommended for mitigation to meet
precautionary guidelines developed by the Environmental Protection
Agency.

Bids will be sought immediately, and a contractor will be hired to conduct
the mitigation.

ATEC staff also recommended that campus custodians and those with
similar housekeeping responsibilities participate in asbestos-awareness
training. In addition, with ATEC's assistance, standard operations and

The Deans' Lists for the School
of Business Administration, the
School of Education, and the
School of Arts and Sciences
were announced recently, and
482 students qualified for this
academic honor. Pressreleases
detailing who received this
honor were sent to hometown
newspapers.

The Augusta College community
sends its sympathies to Debbie
Williams, administrative assis-
tant in the Department of
Political Science, and her family
for the loss of her mother, Velma
Welch, on April 1.

Students or faculty members are invited to submit papers in two categories
for the Ned A.G. Holston Awards competition. A $250 prize will be given
for the best undergraduate student paper submitted during the year in a
humanities or social science course offered within the School of Arts and
Sciences.

Another $250 prize will be given for the best undergraduate student paper in
a science or mathematics course offered within the School. The Holsten
awards were established by Alumnus Robert Rhodes Crout in memory of Dr.
Holsten, a long-time member of the history faculty.

4> Three copies of each entry should be delivered to the office of the
dean of arts and sciences by Friday, April 21.

A detachable cover sheet for each entry should contain the writer's
name and address, the course for which the paper was
written, and the name of the course instructor.

This information should not
appear anywhere else in the
paper.

The cover sheet should also
indicate whether the paper
should be considered for the
humanities and social sci-
ence award or the science
and mathematics award.

A faculty committee will

The Board of Regents has approved a new tuition policy that will decrease in-state tuition by
five percent at two-year colleges and raise out-of-state student tuition. The changes will go
into effect July 1 . Regents also voted for a tuition increase of five percent at all other system
institutions. Some of the other tuition issues considered by Regents for study and potential
future action include:

elimination of the 12-month delay between state residency and in-state tuition

status;
raising graduate tuition charges, particularly in fields where advanced degrees
^gnificanUy enhance lifetime earnings;

charging differentialiees for special instructional programs (i.e., distance learning)
or for students in special locationai circumstances (i.e., student teachers,
study-abroad students);
expanding the institutional discretion for waiving th^ut-of-state tuition

differential; and
expanding the possibility of reciprocal agreements with contiguous states, counties
and/or foreign countries to waive the out-of-state tuition charges tor
students from one area to attend programs or institutions in the other.

Chancellor Stephen R. Fortch will assign the University System Tuition Study
Committee the task of reviewing these and other tuition-related issues.

With the passage of the University System of Georgia's FY 1996 budget, everyone in
the system from students to faculty to staff will be affected by the positive changes.

Budget allocations are aimed at addressing new and old concerns. The FY '96
allocation of $59.9 million will allow for an average six percent merit pay increase for
all employees. In order to fund student enrollment increases, $23.6 million was
provided and $30.5 million is available for the major repair and
rehabilitation fund. The Board of Regents' special initiatives received
$43.8 million in new funding.

"The General Assembly responded enthusiastically to the
Governor' s excellent recommendations on your budget," wrote Chan-
cellor Stephen R. Portch in his letter to the Regents. "We spoke with
one voice, and the results were spectacular."

The planning and reconstruction of Albany State College was
once again on the agenda as the FY '96 budget included $3.6 million
in lottery funds for the college's flood recovery.

The FY '96 budget also expands the HOPE scholarship
program, which has been called Georgia's G.I. Bill and which already
guarantees a free college education at one of the state' s public colleges
to students who maintain a B average. Some of the changes which will
make HOPE even more sweeping include: making more students
eligible for the program by removing the current $100,000 annual
family income cap and allowing for a "re-enter provision" which will
give college students who lose their B average a chance to earn it back.
In all, $21.1 million worth of additions and improvements were added.

As the building boom throughout the University System of
Georgiacontinues, the FY '96 budget contains $68.2 million in bonds
for the following projects:

Armstrong State Academic Building and Law Enforcement

Training Center ($8.6 million);

Augusta College Science Building ($ 1 5 million);

DeKalb College Academic Building, North Campus

($15.7 million);

Gift Announced

A $500,000 gift to the Augusta College Foundation from former Augustans Robert
and Katherine Reese Pamplin of Portland, Oregon, was announced last week
at the annual AC President's Club reception.

President William A. Bloodworth, Jr., said the Pamplins' newest gift will
enable AC to attract and retain students through new scholarship opportunities in
the categories of Talent, Incentive and Retention.

The talent scholarships will be used to attract students who have special
abilities in music, art or drama. Incentive scholarships will be for traditional, non-
traditional and contiguous county residents not eligible for the HOPE scholarship or
equivalent aid. Retention scholarships will provide AC students with financial need
the opportunity to continue their studies with minimal or no disruption after their
sophomore year.

AC President's Award Given

J

ohn L. (Jack) Barnes, Jr., executive vice president and chief financial of-
ficer of the Graniteville Company, is the 1995 recipient of The President's
Award at Augusta College. ^

Barnes was given the award by AC President William A. Bloodworth, Jr.,
Thursday, May 4, at the annual Augusta College President's Club Reception, held at
the home of Mr. and Mrs. Brian J. Marks. Marks is the chairman of the AC Founda-
tion.

Dr. Bloodworth praised Barnes as a "true ambassador for our college. He
never misses an opportunity to tell others that he feels his success is directly attrib-
utable to the education he received at Augusta College."

Gift Announced

continued from front page

Pamplin, the former head of the
Georgia-Pacific Corp., and now chairman
of the R.B. Pamplin Corporation, and his
wife, Mary Katherine Reese Pamplin, a
1936 Augusta College graduate, are con-
tinuing their tradition of philanthropy to
benefit the college, Dr. Bloodworth said.

Five years ago, the Pamplins do-
nated $500,000 to the AC Foundation for
the Reese Library, named in memory of
Mrs. Pamplin's parents. The gift was used

to establish the Katherine Reese Pamplin
Endowment for the library.

In 1987, a $100,000 gift was given
by Mr. Pamplin and his son. Dr. Robert B.
Pamplin Jr., to establish the Katherine
Reese Pamplin Scholarship. The gift was
made during the dedication of the
400,000th volume to the librar}', an auto-
biography by Dr. Pamplin entitled "Every-
thing is Just Great."

In 1977, the Pamplins gave the
college its first challenge grant of $ 1 0,000.
The grant served as an incentive to the AC
Alumni Association, boosting alumni con-

tributions by over 50 percent. A second
$100,000 challenge was given in 1983.

It was the Pamplins' initial gift in
1 972 that made the Reese Library a real-
ity. Their announcement of a $250,000 gift
to the library was the catalyst for the Uni-
versity System's Board of Regents' deci-
sion to approve funding for the library's
construction.

Overall, the Pamplins' gifts, chal-
lenges and commitments to Augusta Col-
lege have approximated $1,500,000, Dr.
Bloodworth said.

School of Business Administration, hires
our graduates, and has been responsible for
securing major contributions for the Au-
gusta College Foundation and the School

Bloodworth said.

Barnes is a trustee and vice chair-
man of the AC Foundation, the 1991 re-
cipient of the Distinguished Alumnus
Award, a member of the School of Busi-
ness Administration Board of Advisors, a
former Executive-In-Residence and an in-

A new and improved AC bookstore is in the making as construction crews
continue to ready the grounds in front of the College Activity Center for the
2,200 square foot bookstore addition. The addition should be complete by the
end of December and plans call for the triple-wide trailer to be vacated after
the winter quarter book rush. Director June Pritchett said that, when
complete, the bookstore will be approximately 5,000 square feet. The existing
bookstore is being restructured and will feature a customer service area, a buy-
back window between the lobby and bookstore and three new offices on the

A Day for Augusta College Tops Goal

Early morning winds on Oct. 17
delayed the ascent of the hot-air
balloon used by Dr. William A.
Bloodworth, Jr. to "launch" A
Day for Augusta College, but
they did not deter the volunteer
effort that reported a record
$192,276. The day of friend
raising and fund raising in-
creased public awareness of the
college's impact on the commu-
nity ; developed additional friends
of the college, and exceeded the
$150,000 goal by over $40,000.
The final total raised in the
campaign will be reported shortly.
The success ofA Day for Augusta
College is seen as a strong vote of
confidence in the institution,
according to John B. Flowers,
vice president for institutional
advancement.
