FacEx discusses scholarly journal funds
By MARY ERNST
Staff Renorter
The Faculty Executive Committee passed a motion yesterday that could be the first step toward finding a solution to the disorganized nature of publishing scholarly journals at the University of Kansas.
The motion asks the vice chancellors for academic affairs and for research and graduate studies and the chairman of the scholarly publications committee to report to FacEx on what they perceived the problems to be. The motion also asks for recommendations on how force could be formed to look into the problem.
Ronald K. Calgaard, vice chancellor for academic affairs, said that there were many journals being published on campus, but that they were not funded or coordinated in an organized way.
The policy should be that if you want to have
funding of a scholar journal, you have to go through the Fackch committee, Calgard said. "Now we don't
He said that he probably could account for almost 86 percent of the funding of publications at KU—by the administration, the FaceEx committee and individual departments.
BUT MICHAEL Chernis, chairman of the Faculty Senate Committee on Scholarly Publications, said a major problem was that his committee did not have access to all the information.
"I don't know where all of these publications are," Cheriana said, "And I don't know which departments
Frances Horwitz, vice chancellor for Research and Graduate Studies, said the administration and the FSCOSP could live with procedures as they are now, but that it was crazy to have it that way.
Cheriss said that his committee would not be able to continue supporting the number of publications that it has in the past. It would be nearly impossible to support any new publications, he said.
Funding is provided by the chancellor's office, which has a budget for 1977-78 of $35,029.
Evelyn Swartz, professor of curriculum and instruction and chairman of Facex, said she favored a suggestion made earlier by Herowitz that a task force organize the system.
FacEx had no other items on the agenda.
The motion was made by Gerhard Zuther, professor of English and a member of FaceX, that FacEx ask for recommendations from Calgary, who are responsible for the responsibilities of the task force would be.
FacEx had no other items on the agenda.
The Senate Executive Committee, composed of
UNDER ARTICLE XV of the University Senate code, one graduate student member of the Student Senate will be elected as a member of the research committee. The committee only the policy-making functions of the committee.
the nine faculty members of FacEx and three Student Senate representatives, had a lengthy discussion with Horowitz about student representation on the Faculty Senate Research Committee.
But at the first meeting of the research committee, Bill Remmets, graduate student member of that committee, asked to remain at the meeting during discussion of individual applications for funds.
Howitz said that after much discussion between research committee members over whether Remit was a co-funded program,
"The decision rested on me to break the tie vote."
Norowitz said, and I voted against breaking the tie to force the item back to SemEu and the University of Oklahoma.
"If it had been my personal view, I would have voted to have Bill remain, but I was trying to prove that I was not a good person."
Swartz said that since the matter had been raised initially by the graduate student members of SenEx, the graduate student council should submit the bill to the Organization and Administration Committee.
SenEx went into closed session at the end of the meeting to consider possible candidates for student leadership.
Swart said a list of possible candidates had been given to SenEx last week, but the list contained the names of students who were ineligible to serve on the Senate because they were members of the Senate Student.
Candidates to attend Editors Day
Bill Roy and Nancy Landon Kassebue, two candidates for the U.S. Senate seat from Kansas, will speak and answer questions during the annual Laborers' Day, to be held in Washington on Friday.

Del Brinkman, dean of the School of Journalism, will preside over the meeting.
Brinkman said recently that the meeting had professional and social value for those people.
He said it frequently was the only time editors and publishers gathered to exchange ideas, with a lot of laughter.
Calder M. Pickett, professor of journalism, will announce a new member of the Kansas Newspaper Hall of Fame. The writer will be annually by Kansas editors and publishers.
Room shortage eases
W. L. "Bill" White was inducted into the Hall of Fame last year. White was the son of a journalist and a journalism school was named. Bill White served as a European correspondent, worked for the Washington Post and was awarded the Emporia Gazette after his father's death.
As the fourth week of the semester draws to a close, many students who have been living in temporary housing at the hospital or in other facilities the inconveniences of makehift housing.
Of 240 students placed in temporary housing, 86 remain in substitute housing, 150 in permanent residence libraries, Ruth Mikkelson, assistant director of residential programs, said Larry Johnson.

"I was living in a TV room at Gertrude
Sellars Pearson until yesterday," she said.
"I'm just happy to be up here. It's a lot quieter."
Most students who have been in larger, busier rooms such as lounges, libraries and recreation rooms have been moved, Mikkelson said.
"We've been working on this situation since the very beginning of school," Mikkelson said. "Things should really start moving about now."
One of the first priorities of the housing office was to move the inmate an exercise wheelchair to GSP-Corbin, but the others in temporary quarters are gradually being placed in permanent rooms.
She said she thought most of the students still in temporary quarters were in McColllum, the largest residence hall on campus.
However, Mikkelson said freshman

Reid is on a one-year leave from the Minneapolis (Minn) Star-Tribune. He served as assistant to the managing editor before becoming assistant to the editor...
The problem of finding housing for students has grown in the last few years, she said, and the prospect of a diminishing income in residence hall living does not appear likely.
Reid received bachelor of arts degrees in history and business administration from the University of Nebraska and a bachelor of journalism from Columbia University in New York.
Brinkman said that more than 300 persons had signed up for the activities and that the opening meeting would be in Woodcraft Hall, located at 1648 Broadway for editors, publishers, and faculty, but that
women were at an advantage because the number of halls open to them were few, and the housing gave them priority whenever there was an opening.
Other speakers will be Chancellor Archie R. Dykes and John Chander, president of the Kansas Press Association, Richard Reid, visiting Gannet Foundation professional-in-residence at KU, will give an address, *The Journalism Schools Don T Teach*.
Mikkelson said more people than ever before chose to live in residence halls because of the expense and inconvenience of off-campus living.
