Malott construction started
Cancellor Archie R. Dykes formally started construction on a new $1.51 million addition to Malcolm Hall at ground-breaking construction at the afternoon at the southwest corner of Mallet.
Already this year $16 million worth of buildings have been dedicated, he said, and ground has been broken for an additional $21 million worth on campus this year.
Speakers for the ceremonies were Dykes, Del Shankel, executive vice chancellor; and Walter Hierstein, chairman of the Kansas Board of Regents.
Malott houses classrooms, laboratories and offices for the chemistry, physics and astronomy departments and the School of Pharmacy.
William J. Argersinger, dean of the graduate school, said the 15,000 square feet of additional space would relieve some of the science library pressures and provide a central animal care facility for the first time at KU.
THE ADDITION, which is expected to be completed by fall 1980, also would provide an expansion of the pharmacy school allowing various pharmacy programs and faculty offices, currently located on west campus, to be combined.
Mossberg said that the pharmacy school began to move some of its offices and laboratories to west campus in 1967, after they acquired all available office space in Malott.
The pharmacy school also has clinical laboratories at the KU Medical Center, Mossberg said, but these laboratories would even have to be at the Center even after the addition was finished.
The new addition was funded by the 1977 Kansas Legislature, which also provided money to install air conditioning throughout the existing building, improve fume hood ventilation systems and corridor lighting and put in new double-glazed windows. It was designed by the architectural firm of J. R. Seward. The general construction contract was awarded to B. B. Anderson construction firm of Toperka.
Sabbatical plan relies on merits
A sabbatical leaves proposal adopted yesterday by the Faculty Executive committee will be submitted to Del Shaklee, executive vice chancellor, on Friday.
If Shankel approves the report, the Faculty Council will vote for its adoption into the rules and regulations of the Faculty Senate April 20.
Sabaticales are one- or two-seminar leaves of absence from teaching and administrative duties that are granted to pursue advanced study, to conduct research or to gain industrial or professional experience.
Controversy arose a year ago when the Faculty Council proposed a new sabbatical policy that would have allowed some sabbatical decisions to be based on factors other than merit, as such length of service to a faculty member and the length of time without a sabbatical.
THIS POLICY was rejected by Shankel, who said it was incompatible with the Kamas Staats of Regents' guidelines, which require that chemicals should be granted strictly on merit.
FacEx then was instructed by the Faculty Council to meet with administrators to resolve the disagreements over the proposal.
The new plan, which would allow for selection of sabbaticals strictly by merit, outlines procedures for application for sabbaticals.
Applications would be reviewed by the University Committee on Sabatical Leaves after department charmeen and deans had evaluated the merits of the applications.
This committee would have 11 members, including the vice chancellor for academic affairs.
FOR AN APPLICATION to be considered
stricly meritorious, it would have to record even or more votes from the委員会.
complishments, including successful use of past sabbaticals; and the value of the sabbatical to the applicant's professional needs and goals.
According to the report, committee members would have to use the following criteria to determine the merit of an apprentice: (a) ability to teach, teaching, research and service; past ac-
If more applications are approved than the number of positions available, preference would be given to applicants who had never had a sabbatical.
Lawrence's new city hall, scheduled for completion in February 1980, will have all phases of its construction supervised by a construction management company as a result of last night's city commission meeting.
Supervisory plan passed
The commission passed a motion to pay the Peters, Williams and Kabota, an architectural contracting firm, $110,000 to supervise the building construction. A spokesman said the company would handle up to 30 contracts, including the
The spokesman said his company would save the city at least $50,000 and would complete work five months earlier than a general contractor could.
architectural design, budget, maintenance of building and insurance.
The commission also agreed to allocate $50,000 in general obligations bonds for clearing drainage ditches. A large ditch on Naslith Drive and other debris on 23rd Street would be cleared of debris by heavy flooding there in June 1977.
