University Daily Kansan, March 10, 1982 --- Page 7 Spending limitations restricting TA recruiting The teaching assistant programs of some departments within the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences are being hurt by a request made by the College to the departmentals holding their spending to 80 percent of their base budgets. The request was provoked by Gov. John Carlin's proposal to increase the KU shrinkage requirement. The departments depend on their base budgets for recruiting graduate students as teaching assistants. The College's restriction is forcing some departments to pass by the top graduate students. "We would rather not have anybody than somebody who would affect the department negatively," J Vincent, Napoli's Italian and Portuguese, said recently. The College requested the restriction in February, after it learned of Gov. Carlin's proposed increase of the University's shrinkage requirement Time - Set. 12-8 fashion eyeland 541/6000 Holiday Plaza from 2 percent to 3.5 percent. A 1.5 percent increase in the shrinkage requirement is tantamount to a 1.5 percent decrease in the College's base budget, Robert Lineberry, dean of the College, said. Shrinkage is the money the Kansas Legislature withholds from the University's salary budget to allow for faculty turnover. When faculty take leaves of absence, such as year-long sabbaticals, the University withholds part of their salaries. This salary money must exert a cost for shrinkage in order for the University to make up for the skrinkage loss. The majority of this money is spent on teaching assistant salaries, Lineberry said he would decide in the next several weeks how severely department's budgets would be cut if shrinkage was increased. If Lineberry doesn't lift the restriction soon, the best applicants for TA positions in the Western Civilization program will be lost to other universities, said James Seaver, chairman of the Western Civilization program. Meanwhile, the Kansas House will vote on the budget, including shrinkage, sometime after election when it is scheduled to vote on the budget. The damage to some departments' graduate student and TA programs may already be felt by the time the House votes, however. "If we really want to be competitive, we have to recruit now." Henry Stone said. If the restriction remains after March 15, the department of microbiology's recruitment efforts will be hurt. Stone said. Departments receive the summer because all of the applicants have been bred by them, he said. "We'd really be in a jam," Marlin Harmony, professor of chemistry, said.

The chemistry department will have to cut 3,000 credit hours of classes if the restriction remains into the middle of April. Harmony said. Classes for nonmajors, such as nurses and engineers, would be cut first, he said. Civilization, and philosophy graduate student. He said that Western Civilization's graduate program would also suffer. The prospect of a long-lasting restriction worries TAs as well as department chairmen. The philosophy department's new graduate student recruiting program will be hurt if the restriction is extended, said Dan Wilson. TA in Western. The department of computer science would have to cut back on the number of graders it hires, rather than cut TAs who teach if a restriction is extended, Gregory Wetzel, TA in the department of computer science, said. If the College has to cut department's budgets by a large next year, it will cause a hardship to undergraduate students, Angela Laird, TA in the speech and drama department, said. She said that the department already offers classes for introductory speech each year. The quality of the microbiology graduate program will decline if its budget must be cut next year, Susan Brown, TA in microbiology said. Now, the recruiting prospects of the departments grow dimmer every day the restriction remains.
