Regents statement OK'd
New mission statement omits 'super chancellor'
By Janet Rorholm
Kansan Staff Writer
After months of debate and compromise, the Board of Regents approved its mission statement yesterday.
It also approved issuing the University of Kansas $3.4 million in bonds for the renovation of the Kansas Union.
The new mission statement was written as a collective arrangement by the Council of Presidents, Council of Chief Academic Officers and the Board of Regents Staff Committee.
Del Shankel, interim executive vice chancellor, said the statement provided direction and guidance to the six Regents universities for the coming decade and was passed easily.
"A lot of elements like centralization and financial control going to the Regents were omitted," Shankel said. "No hint of the super chancellor or super president or centralization of all funding was left in the document."
The only hitch to the statement was the document stating the Regents goals. The Council of Presidents and
Regents also approve $3.4 million in bonds for Kansas Union
renovation.
the council of Chief Academic Officers had drafted one document, and the Regents Staff Committee drafted another.
Don Wilson, president of Pittsburg State University, said the only conflict he had expected with the mission statement was about which document the Regents would pass.
"A good mission statement is very important," Wilson said. "Without it, it leaves people in limbo as to what is expected of everyone."
The Regents wrote a third statement during lunch break using elements that were acceptable from the two documents.
The approval of the mission statement came after months of criticism about the original proposal that was drafted in August. It would have given centralized authority to the Board of Regents and taken away the power from the universities.
The money the Regents allocated for the Union will be used for renovations of the fourth floor, which are scheduled to begin in March, said James Modig, director of facilities planning.
"The office arrangement of Student Union Activities and business offices worked very well 20 years ago," Modig said. "But operations have grown and changed over the years and because of that upgrading, the facilities are needed."
