Enrollment Shifts Produce Budget Changes
BY LINDA A. HALES and BETH RETONDE Kansas State University
Realization of money and faculty positions in response to shifting enrollment patterns is currently under way. Delaware University will be the host for the Lawrence campus, said yesterday.
"It's just something people are talking about more open now," he said.
However, Anbrose Sarickes, vice chairman for academic affairs, said that she is "trying to get the job done."
Sarick's said the procedure for determining the budget allocations within the University hadn't undergone any major changes.
A new system of budget allocation among the professional schools and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is weighing heavily on the minds of the deans, however. And the talk of reallocation, to them, means a shift in funding of funds. For George Waggoner, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, reallocation will mean a cutback of between $277,000 and $151,000 and the loss of dozens of teaching assistant and faculty positions.
Shifting enrollment in the college has meant of loss of about 10,000 credit hours, Wagoune said, and is responsible, in part, for the budget cut.
But the professional schools have had their share of problems. Over a five year period, enrollment in the school of Social Welfare had increased by 120 per cent; in the School of Journalism, 38.8 per cent; in the School of Business, 36.6 per cent; in the School of Pharmacy, 23.9 per cent, and in the School of Education, 24.5 per cent. But universities' follow-up suit
In the Schools of Engineering and Architecture and Urban Design, however, enrollment has decreased by 27.8 per cent and 18 per cent respectively.
However, these figures are head counts, and the budget is figured on a credit-hour basis, as are the number of faculty positions allowed each school.
Charles Kahn, dean of the School of Architecture and Urban Design, said, "We are
But one of his school's biggest problems, he is, being said in the 'oldest', unrenovated building.

Despite a decrease in total enrollment, Kahn said, the school doesn't have the resources to admit all the students who apply.
About realization of funds, Kahn said,
"It's absolutely essential. It's not easy and
hard to do."
Howard Mossberg, dean of the School of
marmary, said the "underfunding of space
available to students is a huge problem."
"Once the story is told and believed by the central administration and the regents, it's our responsibility to progress toward the increased support we justify."
The School of Education also suffers from a lack of space, according to Dear Scannell, dean of the school. Scannell listed the school's problems as "too few classrooms, no teaching labs to speak of and almost no single offices."
"Recallation will have to work," he said. Bradford Sheafer, associate dean of the School of Social Welfare, said his school was "not doing a lot for the Kansas City expansion program."
Joseph Pichler, acting dean of the School of Business, said reallocation would permit the business school to hire three new faculty members, probably in the assistant

have a full-time job.
"The University as a whole is underfunded," he said. "Within the University, in terms of internal allocation of resources, there are some areas where enrollment is falling and there could be a shift to those schools that are at capacity."
Thornton Gerton, dean of the School of Fine Arts, said enrollment was up and that students were more confident.
Allocation is never going to satisfy everyone, Saricks said, because those who have money taken away from their department will say it's unfair and those who have more money given to their departments will say it's not enough.

more space and more money as solutions.
Edward Bassett, dean of the School of Journalism, said that reallocation was necessary but that it should be reconsidered. The same reasoning should be allocated on a sliding scale.
Saricks, who refused to disclose tentative figures for the coming year, said that the allocations were based on what the governor recommended in his January budget message to the legislature, but that the legislature could either increase or decrease what the governor would determine how much each department would receive from

The AWAJI PUPPET THEATRE is a unique Japanese art form which evolved among the rural classes of medieval Japan. An "intangible national treasure," it is being preserved by the people of Awaji Island. The Awaji puppets are larger in size than the well-known bunraku puppets from Osaka and each puppet is worked by three puppeteers. Accompaniment is provided by a narrator who chants the story and takes on the roles of all the puppets, as well as by a shamisen (a stringed, banjo-like instrument). The AWAJI PUPPET THEATRE will provide a truly theatrical experience.
For those interested in learning more about the Puppet Theatre a free demonstration will be held by the artists Monday evening at 8:00 p.m., in the University Theatre.
