Dykes Sets Example For Education Intern
By ERIC MEYER
Kansas Staff Reporter
Chancellor of the Dykes office has a classroom for a future university president
Jim Appleberry, an associate professor of educational administration at Oklahoma State University, is attempting to learn how to manage university administration by watching Dakes.
Appleberry, 35, is in the third week of a year-long internship sponsored by the American Council on Education (ACE). Dykes participated in a similar ACE internship before becoming chancellor of the ACE. The ACE sponsoring 37 such internships this year.
"What I hope to learn from my internship is how Chancellor Dykes works and how he will leave his mark on the University of Kansas," Appleberry said.
"Two things impress me thus far," he added. "For one, Dykes' sense of direction and the thrust he is giving to the University. He's going to get it moving. Secondly, I think he will renew and continue the splendid tradition which KH had had."
Appleberry said he was most impressed by dykes "personal skill of dealing with people."
"He has the ability to be as open as possible, to reach the highest quality decisions possible on an issue," Appleberry said. "I have become recommitted that it is possible to be an administrator of higher standards of adhering to standards of fairness for all."
"Dr. Dykes has the ability to assess organizations and make changes where needed. He is able to recognize his own skills and compensate through his stuff."
Appleberry said that he had been interested in higher-education administration.
"I enjoy pulling people together to get things done," he said. "Any good administrator, to learn, to be a teacher, to sense of own persuasion influencing another, is a key to success."
Appleberry said college administrators should become more adaptable and responsive at the "grass roots" level. He administraients should get citizens involved, not only in financially supporting an institution but also in attending classes.
"There are internal adjustment problems facing our universities," he said. "We have just come through a period of rapidly expanding aspiration levels on the part of the people in our nation. And we have just passed the population boom."
Appleberry said education was becoming more career-oriented.
"But I don't see the need for liberal academic education ever disappearing," he wrote. "The push for academics has been overshadowed by vocational education. What has always been there in terms of the professions and of those trying to increase the quality of their education."
He said the thrust had shifted from heavy gear production to 'more direct preparation'
Kansas Union Food Prices May Increase
What makes the role of the begerent or a major university so exciting and appealing? How is this role shaped by experience?
Food prices at the Kansas Union probably will rise after the price freeze on meat expires Wednesday, according to Warner Smith, assistant director for the Kansas Union.
"We've been studying the problem of rising prices, especially on meat, and so far, we've absorbed the extra cost," said Ferguson. "But after the freeze is off, the price of beef will probably go so high that we can't raise prices on meat products."
Food prices at the Union have remained unchanged since last March, when the prices on sandwiches were slightly raised, said Ferguson.
The food service, like the rest of the Kansas Union, is run by the University of Kansas Memorial Corporation, a non-profit organization.
As food prices have risen, the food service has been able to absorb the expense without taking a loss, said Ferguson. But now many restaurants are offering the price or lower than the Union fees for them.
Ferguson said that although prices on meat items may go up, they probably will not increase in price.
"I don't think that they'll ever get down to where they were last week, though," he said.
Bread, milk and pastries may be included in the price increases at the Union, but Ferguson said that he will wait to decide on prices until it can be determined what the market price is on each time after the freeze has lifted.
The Union serve food to approximately 3,500 students daily, an increase from last year.
The food service will soon be offering flesh hot sandwiches and hamburgers as well as the prepackaged sandwiches that they have sold for several years.
Although the Union had some difficulty in getting beef during the summer, Ferguson said, the problems have eased, at least until the price freeze is over.
"Food prices also may be raised if the minimum wage goes up," said Ferguson. The food service employs approximately 60 persons.
"We'll keep trying to have prices as low or lower than anyone else," said Ferguson. "But it's possible that we may lose some money."
Appleberry said, "He (a mentor) must be a public relations agent, chief of academics, chief administrator, a politician in dealing with students," he said. "The bossier for the students—everything."
a native of Waverly, Mo., Appleberry is married and has two sons. He holds bachelor's, master's and education specialist's degrees from Central Missouri State College at Warrenburg and a doctorate from Oklahoma State University.
