There's a constant relationship between research and teaching in the lives of our faculty," she said. "TheyEYeyow them with a heightened perspective with them when they enter the classroom." Research gains more muscle Growing demand puts responsibility on professors shoulders By Stacy Smith Kansan staff writer Larry Martin, associate professor of geology, said he spent 50 percent of his academic time on research. He said he believed both roles as professor and teacher were equally important. Teaching classes, grading papers and meeting with students might seem like a full-time job for a professional, but the responsibilities don't end there. Research is becoming an increasingly vital component of professor's work. "Expectations have never been higher, and institutions of higher learning are trying to be responsive," said Chancellor Gene A. Budig. "People believe that we can make a difference in their lives through research." However, the growing demand for research places additional pressure on professors to do more original work in order to make tenure. Del Brinkman, vice chancellor for academic affairs, said research work was a necessary part of a professor's job that would lead to tenure. He said it was possible that a professor could be denied tenure for not doing enough research, but that it would probably happen if that was the only reason. "Research is certainly important." Brinkman said. "This is a major comprehensive research university. Professors are expected to do research as part of their appointments." Susan Embretson, professor of psychology, said she spent 25 hours a week on classroom work and five to 20 hours a week on research. "It's a competition for time," she said. "I like research the best, but then, on the other hand, I wouldn't like research without teaching." Embretson said she was now working 70 hours a week to meet a research deadline. Professors are evaluated by the original research they produce, which in turn determines tenure, she said. Judith Ramaley, executive vice chancellor, said research was the lifeblood of the University. She said society now demanded that universities be useful in many different capacities. "We are increasingly being asked by corporations, state agencies and communities to study areas of concern," she said. "We are also constantly asking ourselves how to serve society better." Ramaley said the roles of teacher and researcher were equally important to the University. Martin said he did not think research got i the way of teaching. He said professors who were involved in research were more enthusiastic about the subject they were teaching and would be more motivated in the classroom. "Research gives a truly current and modern perspective in the classroom," he said. "I think the fact that KU is a research university is the reason it gets a high rating by people." "The purpose is to give people a real academic education," he said. "I think research is the lifeblood of a university like KU." ASK promotes Margin during awareness week By Lara Weber Kansan staff writer For an organization with about 80,000 members, it's important that the members learn what they are a part of. By enrolling at a Board of Regents school, students automatically become members of ASK. About 80,000 students attend Regents schools. Sherri Sweers, campus ASK director, said each of the Regents schools would be having awareness weeks at times throughout the semester. The purpose of the week was to tell students about ASK and get them involved in various ASK activities, she said. About 250 students wrote letters to Gov. Mike Hayden, asking him to support the Margin of Excellence, and about 200 students signed up to attend Lobby day in support of the Margin in February at the state legislature, said Bill Mosely, assistant ASK director at KU. The Margin is the Regents three-year plan to bring the total financing of its seven institutions to 95 percent of their peer schools and to bring faculty salaries to 100 percent of their peers. Mosely said he believed awareness of ASK had been raised last week "It itwere really well," Mosely said. "We'll continue efforts to get more people to sign up." "A lot of people before didn't even learn to use computers. Students should know who we are." Throughout the week, ASK leaders distributed food coupons good on Friday at the Wagon Wheel Cafe, 507 W. 14th St. On Friday, students gathered on Jayhawk Boulevard for a "Walk to the Wheel" in support of the Margin. Insurance Continued from p. 1 She said Blue Cross officials hoped the students would be able to pay the higher monthly premium and enroll in option one. "We don't want students out there going without coverage if they can possibly help it," Betzen said. She said today's notices to option two students would contain retroactive charges of nearly $14 for each month the student had been enrolled in Blue Cross insurance this year. The charges represent one-time fees for the option two and the higher option one premiums, Betzen said. "That's what bothers us," he said. Students who cannot afford to make the change will have no other option under the University plan this year, Lambert said. Lambert said the University would try to find another student health insurance plan that would take the place of the one just lost. "It's going to be a goal for next year, but we do have the contract for this year, and we're bound by that," he said. Specify Original "Golden Braided" or new "Thin Style" Crust FREE PIZZA!
