Budget cut permanent officials tell committee
KU officials met with the University Senate Executive Committee on Friday to discuss the fate of KU's budget, which is now before the
Keith Nitchter, director of business affairs, Richard Mann, director of information systems, and Martin Jones, associate director of business affairs, brieted SenEx成员 on the probable effect Gov. John budget recommendations would have on Board of Regina requests.
Nitched to SenEx that last July's 4-percent reduction in the University's operating budget had become permanent.
That reduction was originally intended as a temporary measure for this fiscal year. But the University has to work with that lower base budget for fiscal year 1864. Nitcher said that he would depend on Carlin's recommendations.
SEVERAL SENEX MEMBERS said they wanted to know how they could work with the Regents and the Legislature on budget appropriations.
SenEx member Ellen Gold said, "As members of the state system, we all have a vested interest in keeping the state in the black."
But Nitcher said the only advice
he could give faculty members was to work with area legislators.
Other SenEx members said they thought that higher education was ignored by the Legislature, especially this year.
SenEx member James Carothers said, "It strikes me that higher education is the neglected stepchild of the state of Kansas."
"I'm not sure it's all that true," Seaver said.
James Seaver, SenEx chairman,
said he was skeptical of what he
called rhetoric in the Legislature
with the governor's office with
the higher education money.
SENEX MEMBER Edwyna Gilbert, associate professor of English, said she wished more students would talk to legislators about budget problems. Students often need more clout than faculty do, she said.
But SenEx member Charles Kahn said he thought neither students not faculty could influence legislators this year.
"This year is just a bad one," he said.
Mann agreed, saying the Legislature was not receptive to higher education's appeals because it was intended for the entire slate's financial problems.

DETROIT — A Wayne State University faculty member says Nazi fugitive Klaus Barbie, expelled from Bolivia to stand trial in France for his actions during World War II, was paid $1,700 a month to serve as a U.S. spy three years after the war.
Erhard Dabringhaus, an associate professor of German at Wayne State, said he was a U.S. intelligence agent and was ordered to hide Barbie, a former Gestapo officer nicknamed the "Butcher of Lyon," from the French.
Dabringhaus said he worked for U.S. intelligence in Europe during the war and afterward and was assigned to "work with Barbie" in 1948.
Professor claims Nazi was paid U.S. spy
By United Press International
A STATE DEPARTMENT spokeswoman contacted in Washington yesterday said she had no information between the battle and U.S. intelligence.
Dabringhaus said Barbie, now 69, was in his middle 30s when the two worked together the summer and winter of 1948.
He did not name the specific U.S. intelligence agency involved with
South America in 1951," Dabringhaus said.
Currently in France under military guard, Barbie is to be tried for "crimes against humanity" for allegedly overseeing the torture and killings of thousands of French Jews and resistance fighters during the war.
BARBIE WAS LOCKed up yesterday in the fortress prison where, as the head of the Gestapo in Lyon 40 years ago, he killed World War II resistance fighters.
Barbie was taken to Montville fortress immediately after being flown Saturday to France from Bolivia, where he had lived 30 years as "Klaus Altmann." He then escaped to the United States and late Friday after his arrest for defrauding the state mining company.
Barbie was judged by military tribunals after the war to have been responsible for some 4,000 killings, the deportation of 7,500 resistance fighters and Jews to concentration or forced detention. The number of those than 15,000 people who was head of the German secret police in Lyon from 1942 to 1944.

AFFIRMATIVE ACTION: TOKENISM EMBODIED
After many of our metropolitan black ghettoes exploded in not, President Lyndon Johnson appointed a commission to determine the causes of this insecurity and recommend corrective measures. In 1968 this commission concluded that the violence was inspired by "white racism" and suggested that governing units at all levels play a much larger part in providing better employment opportunities, housing, education and police protection for ghetto residents.
Seven years earlier President Kennedy had issued an executive order directing contractors not only to refrain from discrimination but to undertake "affirmative action" for racial equity among those in their employ. "Affirmative action" is the term used to describe any measure, beyond simple termination of discriminatory practices, which is designed to correct discriminatory patterns and prevent their recurrence. Remedial affirmative action is the transmission of information to and the creation of remedial programs for minority groups, while preferential affirmative action involves numerical goals, quota systems and timetables designed to produce a work force whose makeup is, in the words of the Supreme Court, "more or less representative of the population in the community from which the employees are hired."
Yet both nominal and preferential action violate the Civil Rights Act of 1984 which declares in Title VI: "No person in the United States shall, on the grounds of race, color, or national origin, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance", and in paragraph 703 of Title VII: "Nothing contained in this title shall be interpreted to require any employer . . . to grant preferential treatment to any individual or any group because of race, color, religion, sex or national origin . . ."
What has "affirmative action" during its two decades of existence, brought black America? While there are more black doctors, lawyers, politicians, college graduates, employees and employees, there also exist more black single-present families, homeless children, victims of violence, hard-core unemployed, disaster-bound perennial traitors, alcoholics, drug addicts, suicides and mentality ill. If the Random House Dictionary's definition of tokenism is "the practice of admitting a very limited number of Negroes into business organizations, schools, etc. in token conformity with legislation and public opinion regarding civil rights" is correct, then "affirmative action", which concerns itself with the superficial, is a token response to the real problems of black America.
Thomas Jefferson once noted that whenever there are "unemployed poor, it is clear that the laws of property have been so far extended as to violate natural rights." Those problems articulated in 1968—unemployment, inadequate housing, education and police protection—have played ghetto homes and black America for decades and exist today because of an alluring economic system in need of fundamental reform, not palliatives like "affirmative action."
