system you devise," he said. "The key is not to cut at the roots of the system, but to look at the other aspects."
If `'deadwood'`—as non-producing, tenured faculty are known—exists, a ministerial problem, Dave Swenberger, vice president of the KU AUAJP chapter, said.
"The administration should take care of faculty who don't do their jobs," he said. "The administration has at its disposal three reasons—imcompetence, ethics and moral turpitude—under which it can release tenured faculty."
Though no tenured faculty have been released since tenure was instituted at KU in the 1940s, many faculty were released when told they would be released for one of those reasons.
"It is such a severe penalty to be released for one of those reasons that no one wants it on their record," he said, "So they agree to leave before the punishment is imposed.
"At the hearings in Topeka, Acting
Chancellor Shankel said two or three teachers agreed to leave last year because of that reason."
Shankel agreed that tenure was neither an automatic right nor a shield for the incompetent or the irresponsible.
"Tenured faculty can be terminated for adequate cause," he said. "Tenure is not a license to walk off the job or act unprofessionally in any way."
On a less serious scale, merit pay raises can be withheld from tenured faculty members who do not perform satisfactorily. Student loan officials did not usually adateademic disciplinary action.
But Frances Ingemann, professor of linatistics, disagrees.
"The Legislature never allocates enough money to cover the cost of living," she said. "So, people don't seem to get wages above the cost-of-living level.
But tenure affects the University in other than disciplinary matters. One concern that KU had previously is that it would become so full of tenured faculty that there would little turnover in the teaching. When this condition exists, a university is said to be "tenured-in."
"because the University doesn't give large amounts for merits, there are a lot of people who aren't adequately compensated for their performance."
Of the full-time equivalent tenured faculty members at KU, 79 percent are tenured, Michal said. Overall, 40 percent of all unclassified employees at KU are tenured.
Both figures must be taken into account when determining KU's tenured-in status, Michal said. The first figure includes all faculty who would be eligible for tenure.
"We figure the full-time equivalent this way: One faculty member who works a 40-hour work week equals one full-time equivalent; two members who work 20 hours a week each equal one full-time equivalent and so on," she said.
The second figure represents all unclassified employees at KU, such as those in the office of business affairs not on the tenure track, she said.
"When you look at it this way, you'll see that we have a sort of cushion," Michal said. "We also will not become tenured in because we do not extend offers for tenure track positions unless we have an opening in that particular department."
KU has budgeted a definite amount of tenured positions, Michal said. To expand that amount, the University must have per-unit funding from academy affairs. Rahul Christofersen.
But because the University cannot hire for tenure track positions it does not have, there is a tendency to offer more short-term appointments, Shulen burger said.
"We're getting qualified people, but when we can only offer them one- or two-term slots, they tend to not stay," he said. "It's not a serious problem, but it is a hard task to see qualified people leave because a team's position is not open in their department."
"The benefits are immense; the problems created are few," Shankel said. "It should not be necessary to 'burn down the barn to roast the pig.'"
Hostages
k from page one hostages, but they ended up giving aid and comfort to the Iranians and actually making it worse for us."
From page one
The Rev. Nelson Thompson of Kansas City, Mo., the third clergyman, whom Jones singled out for praise, said he was shocked by Jones' allegations.
According to Bremer, the International Red Cross Medical Team saw the hostages and reported them in good condition four days after he left them in April.
He said one clergyman had tried to exchange himself for a hostage during the April trip.
"Kather Darrell Rupiper offered himself as a substitute for a hostage," he said. "We would have taken their places."
Not all of the hostages, however, have been critical of the clergymen's visit.
runcard Queen, the ex-hostage released last summer, has said the clergy visits to the hostages were a welcome sight. He said that if they had not come, the situation would have been worse.

In short, NCR means an opportunity to grow. To excel. To help shape the future of an organization that in little over 10 years has become one of the world's largest computer companies.
NCR means everything from microcomputer chips to mainframes. And being part of a company that puts as much effort into software development as it puts on hardware development, it means contributing, not to isolated components, but to the larger community granted, working solutions to specific customer needs.
As well as an opportunity to be in the forefront of these and other significant on-going development areas.
