Classified Senate expects Dykes' decision this week
By JEFF SJERVEN
Staff Reporter
Classified employees at the University of Kansas will have to wait several days before the administration decides whether to recognize the Classified Senate.
Chancellor Archie R. Dykes said yesterday that he had received recognition for his work. Senate recognition from a special four-member administration committee, but
"This is not one of the items that we've been giving attention to in recent days," Dykes said. "I've been spending most of my
time trying to coordinate all the changes going on at the Med Center, where we've been moving patients into the new hospital."
The recommendations were sent to Dykes by the special administration committee after it met Oct. 5 to discuss a recognition of the achievement and Senate's interim steering committee.
Administration committee members would not dissect the nature of the problems that had arisen; were Richard Mann, chairman and University director, of informational materials for the committee.
JOSEPH COLLINS, chairman of the Classified Senate's intern steering committee, said he thought the administration would formally recognize the Senate.
encancellor; Keith Nitcher, University director of business affairs; and Mike Davis, University general counsel.
"I'm glad Dykes has received the administration committee's recommendations to favor," he said. "I think the administration will recognize the need for classified employment."
Collins said Dykes had told him to expect decision by Wednesday or Thursday.
"Regardless of whether we are recognized," he said, "we will hold elections in November and seat a Senate in January to elect a new president." In public communication for 1.300 classified employees.
Collins said, however, that the Senate would operate even without recognition from the KU administration.
Without recognition, the Senate would have to work directly with the Kansas Legislature and the Board of Regents instead of workthrough through KU Collins said.
"WITH RECONFIGITION, the exchange of information between the administration and classified employees would be greatly
enlazed," he said. "Access to more information would keep us from taking incorrect stands because we were ignorant of something going on in the administration.
Hiram Stockwell, KU printing service and member of the Classified Senior Staff team. The SEN staff was too early for classified employees to consider contingency plans in anticipation of any unforeseen event.
"I don't want to cross that bridge until I come to it," Stockwell said. "I'm optimistic about recognition because both the student and faculty senates have responded
favorably to the idea of a Classified Senate."
stockwell said recognition from the administration would give classified employees a chance to voice their opinions on concerns concerning their job at the University.
THE MOST beneficial result of recognition, "be said," "will be knowing that we are being heard."
Colinns said the Senate's steering committee would meet tomorrow night, to certify nominations of 68 persons who would run for 68 senate seats in the November elections.
