Regents would recommend the elimination of at least one program at KU.
"I don't think people should be unduly alarmed or expecting to lose a whole school or department though," he said.
Recommendations will be based on reviews conducted this summer, McFarland said. The four physical science departments were re-evaluated and the School of Engineering and the School of Architecture.
He said the Regents reviewed academically sound programs because they needed to establish procedural guidelines before recommending large changes in programs at its six universities.
"We wanted the institutions to become familiar with the process also," he said.
THE REGENTS DO not have a specific policy to follow to eliminate or merge programs.
McFarland said it would most likely be left to each university to decide on a procedure to eliminate programs.
Students would be allowed to finish course work within a reasonable period of time, he said. But he declined to say what would be considered a reasonable period of time.
New students just would not be allowed to enter the program, he said.
Al Johnson, assistant to the vice chancellor for academic affairs, said it was possible that students would be given up to three years to finish their course of study once a program was eliminated from the University.
"Nobody is going to pull the rug out from anybody," he said.
Tenured faculty, McFarland said, would
probably be offered different jobs within the University.
THE UNIVERSITY SENATE Executive Committee has been working on a proposal for a program discontinuance policy that makes specific provisions for the University to follow should there be a recommendation to eliminate a program for academic reasons.
Max Lucas, dean of the school of architecture, said the Regents would also recommend eliminating the bachelor of environment degree.
However, Stanley Koplik, Regents' executive director, said she had not bound to them if it were planned.
But, he said, the action will just follow through with a policy that the school initiated three years ago. Students are being allowed to finish their courses and the degree is slowly being phased out.
"If Robert Kennedy were alive today, he would be the first person to say that (FBI Director) J. Edgar Hoover's reckless campaign against Martin Luther King was a shame and a blot on American history." Kennedy said, anger evident in his voice.

the civil rights leader at age 60.
Kennedy told reporters later that Helms' charges against King are "almost like saying Abraham Lincoln was a member of a communist conspiracy."
The Senate rejected an amendment to name the holiday National Civil Rights Day as well as a proposal to celebrate the holiday on King's birthday, Jan. 15, instead of the third Monday in the month.
HE SAID PRESIDENT Kennedy warned King to stay away from two associates to defuse the charges of segregationists who wanted to discredit him.
The Senate also defeated, 68-22, an attempt to name the holiday National Equality Day. Sen. Charles Mathias, R-Md., led the effort to block the change, noting that no black American is memorialized.
Corman said the Regents formed the long-term plan to make financing large projects such as the KU science library "more palatable" to legislators.
"It was not until Martin Luther King stood on the steps of Lincoln Memorial and said, 'I have a dream of black and white Americans living together in peace,' that the Civil War finally ended," Mathias said. "What we are celebrating is Martin Luther King's reconciliation of the races in America."
Leading the Regents priority list was a request for $4 million for large repairs, special maintenance and remodeling at its schools. That fund is used to finance emergency repairs or projects that cannot be financed by the schools' operating budgets.
Transcripts from that electronic surveillance in the 1960s is what Helms asked the judge to make public.
KU will ask for nearly $4.18 million in new
funding to support 1985 for five projects on the Rogers priority list.
Building
CORMAN SAID THE priority list reflected the board's desire to care for its existing 600 or so buildings, rather than to begin planning and constructing new buildings.
"If you can't take care of what you have," Commandin "you'd better look closely at what you need."
continued from p. 1
Bogina said he agreed with the need for the $4 million maintenance fund and would propose that the Legislature provide it from the state's general fund.
He said he doubted, however, that the entire $15.4 million in requested appropriations would be released.
Energy conservation measures on the Lawrence campus, at a cost of $721,803 next fiscal year, were second on the priority list.
the Med Center's request for $2.85 million in fiscal year 1985 and $1.88 million in fiscal year 1986 for an addition to Applegate Energy Center and an increase in its chilled-water cooling capacity for air-conditioning systems in the Med Center's buildings.
Wiechert said those measures would pay for themselves in energy savings in one to five years. The University plans to ask for $4.9 million during the next five years to continue conservation projects such as making boilers in the central power plant more efficient.
FOURTH ON THE Regents' statewide list is
Gerald Imming, Med Center director of facilities planning, said the project was necessary because air conditioning in some of the buildings and other areas, was not sufficient under peak demand.
Another Med Center request, which was approved by the Regents and ranked No. 13, was financing for remodeling to accommodate a planned nuclear magnetic resonance imaging
Imming said the system used magnetic and radar technology to form an embedded image of the cornea and ocular iris of a patient.
THE MED CENTER is requesting $200,000 for fiscal year 1985 for planning the remodeling, and will ask the Legislature for $1.8 million for fiscal year 1986 to support the system and to buy the system and supporting equipment.
Imming said the Med Center needed the device to be called a 'new window on the body' to keep up its security.
Wiechert also told the committee that the University needed $130.825 for preliminary planning on the renovation of Snow Hall.
Those departments would be moved to Snow after most of the biological sciences move to Haworth Hall; its addition is scheduled for completion in early 1986. Wiechert said KU is to be housed there, which is greatly allocated by the Legislature, in the next fiscal year to complete construction at Haworth.
