Special Task Force Studies KU For Next Accreditation Evaluation
By STEVE FRY
Kenneth Hart Reporter
A special task force is making a detailed study of all aspects of the University of Kansas in preparation for an upcoming visit to the University of California and the institution of College and Secondary Schools.
The task force will help KU assess its present programs, goals and resourcee-
North Central, a regional accrediting association, measures standards of education and overall excellence once every six years. KU's evaluation will be next year.
Guided by an 11-man steering committee, the task force is composed of six committees, which will gather information about the University and write reports of their investigations. Directors of the task force are R. E. Dilleremer, associate dean of graduate school, and Jerry Hillman, associate vice chancellor for academic affairs.
"Now is the time in the University's history to stop along the curb and look back at the past."
should slow down or speed up, Hutchison said recently. "The institutional self-study should give us some bearings or guidelines. It will hopefully show us what we are doing well and show us some of our weaknesses or inadequacies."
The steering committee selected six broad areas of study and picked four people to lead the project.
The first committee is studying the current goals or objectives of the University.
The second committee is concerned with identifying the institutional dynamics of the University. Institutional dynamics is the organization of the University and decision-making processes at the departmental, school and administrative levels.
The third committee is the "pursuit of objectives" group. It is assigned to see whether the goals of the University are being achieved.
The fourth committee is examining the quality of education at KU.
The fifth committee is looking at campus institutional arrangements. Included in this

The task force committees are gathering information from two basic sources. First, each budgetary unit in the University has been asked to conduct a small scale self-study. Each unit will submit enrollment, information to the appropriate committee.
The last committee will write a projection of the University's future.
The second information source for the committees is independent research. Three committees are mailing questionnaires to students, faculty, administrators and alumni to collect information for the self-study.
group are the faculty, the library, research facilities and all support services.
The committee studying current University objectives has mailed 500 questionnaires to departmental chairmen, a random sampling of faculty and alumni, some students in liberal arts and sciences, assembly, and some selected students.
Phil Frickey, Oberlin junior, was unanimously elected president of the Association of University Residence Halls (AURH) Thursday by the UARH Assembly.
Frickee was treasurer of AURH during the 1973-74 school year and also served as acting president of AURH last month after her retirement, which he resigned to become student body president.
Richard T. DeGeorge, chairman of the objectives committee and professor of philosophy, said the identity of each person answering a questionnaire would be anonymous except for the category (etc.) that the respondent falls under.
"The reason for the identification by categories is to find out whether the goals of the University as perceived by the students are aligned with the aims of the faculty and alumni." DeGeorge said.
Frickey said that Thursday that he hoped AURH would initiate a campus affairs council, comparable to those already established in the Association and the Interfraternity Council.
Other officers elected were Harry
Wigner, Atwood freshman and former
North Central officials will spend four days at KU next December to assess the campus. Results of the evaluation should be presented in the spring of 1976, according to Ellermeir.

Pork Queen Schoen Not Schwein
While it may not seem kosher that a pretty 20-year-old University of Kansas coat should be crowned 1974 National Pork Uniform, an under junior, doesn't worry about such disparities.
Schoen, who is 5 feet 7 inches tall, weighs 102 pounds, has blue-green eyes and bears a dark brown eyebrow.
Kim Schoen
March 6 in Des Moines by the National Pork Producing Council.
The title of the award, "National Pork Queen," doesn't disturb Schoen, whose last name means beautiful in German. She said yesterday that when most people thought of pork, they thought of feed-lots and hogs, think more of the pork chop on the table."
As National Pork Queen, Schoen said it would be her responsibility to change people's views of pork. She said people didn't think much about eating pork, and it would be her job as queen to draw attention to pork.
Next week Schoen will begin her travels to restaurants, supermarkets and conventions preaching the virtues of pork in the diet.
On April 16, in Fargo, N.D., Schoen will try to turn the silk purse of restaurant owners into a business.
The Pork Queen will travel to Nebraska in June to take part in Nebraska Land Days. Schoen said she didn't know what her duties would be at that festival.
Schoen's parents raise hogs on their farm near Downs.
"I've been around hogs all my life," she said.
Her familiarity with hogs helped in the contest. Schoen said. One part of the competition asked that the contestants speak extemporaneously on the contents of a package they selected from a table. The package contained a charcoal brinquet.
"I was lucky, Schoen said. "You can barbecue pork. One girl got a golf tee." Schoen said her skill in the kitchen would come. "You also have one responsibility of a Pork Queen would be the preparation of various pork dishes at supermarkets.
