issues left that are going to be major problems for the new chancellor," he said. "We tried to resolve as many of them as we could. We left a few so that his life wouldn't be totally dull."
However, Shankel warned that most problems would happen unexpectedly.
"Most of the major issues are not predictable until they arrive," he said.
SHANKEL HAD his share of predictable and unpredictable problems. Some of the more notable ones were allegations from several legislators that the Kansas University Medical Center was being mismanaged and had poor housekeeping; allegations from State Rep. Joseph Hoagland, R-Overland Park, that the tenure process protected two KU instructors who went to Iran during the hostage crisis while the academic semester was in progress; stories in the Kansas City Times charging that advisers at some grades for athletes were fixed; and a Kansas Legislature that allocated less money for KU than officials expected.
Of the problems he dealt with, Shankel picked
the allegations of Med Center mismanagement
in the program.
Legislators threatened to cut the Med Center budget unless administrative improvements were made. However, in April the KU Budget Subcommittee of the House Ways and Means Committee inspected and approved the Med Center facilities.
Shankel said that the other problems during the year didn't concern him as much because he was not a student.
FOR EXAMPLE, he said that he thought the student athlete problem had been exaggerated.
"I didn't view that as a major crisis kind of problem that we couldn't deal with." Shankel
"I think that those problems were somewhat overblood and got much more attention than they probably deserved. Every major university that I know about has some problems in the area of athletes and academics. What was perhaps overblood was to suggest that our problems were unique or greater than anybody else's concern."
Shankel did not deny that the allegations were partially true.
"There were some problems," he said. "When we discovered problems we tried very hard to correct them."
Shankel said he would report the findings of a committee that studied that problem and the action taken to solve the problems before the University Senate "sometime soon."
Shankel also said he thought the KU budget could be improved in the future.
Lower budgets are not necessarily a national trend for universities, Shankel said, citing universities in Oklahoma, Texas and Louisiana that are successful in getting the funds they requested.
"West Virginia did very well. I'm hoping that she'll bring to something here in the future," Samples told me.
Although he said retaining adequate funding for the University would be the major problem in the next few years, Shankel was optimistic about the future of higher education.
ENROLLMENT INCREASES should level off, he said, and KU could stop expanding the campus and concentrate on improving the quality of education.
"It's not a time of great growth but it is a time
that can have an opportunity to improve and
emphasize its mission."
Shankel conceded that low salaries for KU professors might have caused some damage to their careers.
However, he said he was confident that the Legislature can Kansas had supported higher education help.
"I'm optimistic. I think the Kansas economy is sound," Shankel said. "I think the state can do what it needs to do if it can be persuaded that higher education is really important."
SHANKEL PLANS to be a part of those
years as a professor, but he did not rule out the possibility of taking another administrative job.
"I haven't really decided" he said. "I think it
might be that you want to look at my life
and the impact it would have on my family."
But for the present, Shankel plans to take the sabbatical that was postponed by his appointment as acting chancellor and then return to teaching and research in the spring semester.
"I haven't ruled it out. But I'm not out looking for a job, either."
Shankel will spend six weeks in Japan starting in late September. He will present a research paper at the Third International Conference on Environmental Mutagens in Tokyo and spend a month working in a laboratory at the National Institute of Genetics in Mishima.
Budig
From Page 1
"I think the problems that were cited by the legislators last session have been resolved."
He said that the Med Center was an important part of KU and that he had an obligation to stay with the medical school.
Bud plans to spend one day a week on the Mo Center campus to work directly with the staff.
His main objectives for the medical center are to strengthen the facility's nursing program.
IN ADDITION, Budig said he would devote
much of his time to seeking new sources of money for student scholarships. He has talked to several businesses about increased support for the program.
To win support for the University's 1982 budget proposal and to reaffirm KU's position as a major state asset, Budg plans to tour all 185 counties in the year in office. so far, he has visited 68 counties.
BUDIG MADE A similar tour in West Virginia, explaining that it gave him an opportunity to meet the public.
"The public looks to the University for leadership, and we need to find out how we can better serve the public." he said.
Budid said he hoped to make at least 12 additional appearances in areas throughout the state with administrators from Kansas State University and Wichita State University.
"I'm convinced that we must be mutually supportive," he said. "Universities can be competitive, but at the same time, we must be supportive in areas like faculty compensation. That is a statewide concern in higher education, and one that we can work together on."
Budig said he was confident the University could eventually become one of the top institutions in the United States if given the proper support from lawmakers and the public.
"The chancellor can't do the job alone, but with strong assistance, I believe KU can become one of the 10 finest universities in America," he said in his goal, and I believe "it's a realistic one."
"I plan on being here for quite a while, as long as it takes to achieve my goals. I've stated the issues and the needs. Now I just need to be allowed to do my job."
Utility charges holding steady
Students returning for fall semester face increased tuition fees and housing costs, but Lawrence utility companies do the same as last year for their services.
The Kansas Power and Light Company, Ninth and Tennessee streets, requires a deposit of about $40, accruing for the next six months as director. The deposit is determined by taking twice an average monthly bill of $20.
The Lawrence public works department, Sixth and Massachusetts streets, requires a water deposit of $35, which is set by city ordinance, said Debbie VanSon of the billing department.
The deposit for gas service is based on a dwelling's past record at the Gas Depot.
Southwestern Bell, B116 W. 24th St.
does not have an automatic deposit
policy. The deposit amount depends on
the type of credit record, employment and credit rating.
