HOPE Award Winner and Professor of Education Oscar M. Haugh
Teaching Enjoyable, Haugh Says
Oscar M. Haugh, professor of education, is a teacher, though at one time he wanted to be a baseball player.
He spent one summer with a farm team when he was 16 but decided that teaching would be more financially secure than being a teacher.
"I haven't regretted the choice," he said recently. Teaching provides a full life that has brought him many satisfies, he said.
ONE OF THOSE satisfaction was being chosen for the HOPE award by the class of 1963
Another satisfaction is seeing former students succeed as language arts teachers, he said. Haugh teaches upperclass and graduate classes, supervises student teachers and teaches videoiation sections of the language arts methods class.
"Videotaping provides a teaching experience as real as possible for the student and an opportunity for him to see and hear himself as others do," be said. Each student who teaches a lesson is critiqued by class members and the teacher.
KU has been using videotaping in language arts methods labs since January 1970 and was one of the first schools in the United States.
He is also participating in KU's Outreach Program.
"This is the second semester I am teaching a class in Kansas City one year," he said. Three times in July he went to Beloit for three-day sessions of his course, Teaching in the Junior and Senior High School.
Haugh, who received a B.S., M.A. and Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota, came to KU in 1960. He had previously
taught at Wisconsin State College.
His background as a classroom teacher includes five summers tutoring retarded children, eight years in a junior high and eight years in a high school. He has taught at the University of Calcutta and the University of Costa Rica.
While teaching in the secondary schools, Haugh said he had directed plays, coached the debate team, sponsored the yearbook and newspaper, and coached baseball and hockey. His newspaper received several All-American ratings.
In 1961 his English textbook series for grades 9-12, "Effective English," was published. It was the first textbook to promote the use of phonetic notation in English.
Inductive reasoning requires students to draw their own conclusions, while deductive reasoning gives students a concrete conclusion.
HAUGH HAS also been editor of four magazines. He was the first editor of "English Education," an official publication of the University Press.
"It in the past 10 years, one of my interests was testing," he said. He has written a college English placement test as well as a graduate-level writing test.
In the last 10 years he has advised 165 masters and doctoral theses.
"It ites a bit hectic, sometimes, with several students finishing at once." he said.
His hobbies include reading and traveling. In the last three years he and his wife have gone to England, Greece and Mexico, and has lived in Paris.
Social Welfare Names Acting Dean
Hardcastle Outlines Primary Objectives
By RICHARD PAXSON Kansan Staff Reporter
David Hardcastle, associate dean of the School of Social Welfare at the University of Kansas, has been appointed acting dean of the school.
The appointment was announced in July by Ambrose Saricks, vice chancellor for academic affairs. Hardcaste will serve until a permanent dean is found to
replace Arthur Katz, who resigned on July 1 to return to teaching in the school.
SCoRMEBE Called Success By Assoc. Dean
Four years ago, a black student in the School of Engineering conceived the idea of an autonomous robot.
Hardcastle received his Ph.D. in social welfare from Case Western Reserve
Today, according to William E. Hogan, associate dean of the School of Engineering, the Student Council for Recruiting, Motivating and Educating Black Engineers (SCORMEB) is a success because of the interest of individuals and industries.
He has taught courses in social problems, program analysis, income maintenance, mental health and human resources development in the school.
When SCOMMEBE began only six black students were in the program. By next year, there should be nearly 50, Hogan said recently.
The NORMEBE program is one of the best established in the country, he said. More than 280 engineering schools are in the country, and many of them are starting minority programs. The program at KU was ranked in the top five by industry sources.
Although the program was designed for black engineering students, services and goals have been expanded to include other minority students.
The purpose of SCoMREME, Hogan said, is to provide financial assistance, summer scholarships and other benefits.
Hogan said he would like to extend SCoMEE programs to Haskell American Indian Junior College and to Lincoln University, a black university in Jefferson
"It's not just a black organization," Hogan said.
The program is complete run by students, although Hogan and he had tried to involve professors. The students recruit and visit industries around the United States to raise money for the program. SCORMEBEP began with $20,000 and now
Darmon Parker, a SCORMEB participant, entered the program two years ago. He said that it was a good program and he felt well educated. "People who have common career interests.
HARDCASTLE SAID he agreed with statements made by Chancellor Archie R. Dykes regarding the necessity for Outreach programs to fulfill the University's obligation to provide continuing education to the people of the state.
His first objective for the coming year is to find a new dean for the school, Hardcaste said. He is chairman of the search committee that is seeking a new dean.
Hardcastle said the committee hoped to announce its recommendation for the new dean by January. The person chosen was David Tucker, who until the 1975-76 academic year, he said.
strengthen relations with the community," he said.
SORMEBME began with $2,000 and now has nearly $200,000, he said.
A third goal is to increase awareness throughout the University of what is accepted as academic practice.
He said he wasn't a candidate for the position.
The school has been falsely accused by "hard" scientists of not teaching students to be traditional academic researchers, he said.
"There needs to be a wider interpretation of what social welfare is all about," Hardcastle said. "It's not just public assistance."
"A second objective would be to
"Our research runs the gamut," Hardcastle said. "Our participant-observer观

KU Keeps Top Professors Distinguished Professorships Retain Gifted
By PAT NANCE Kansan Staff Reporter
Distinguished Professorships aid the University in acquiring and keeping gifted schools and teachers, according to Ambrose Saricks, vice chancellor for academic affairs.

The first Distinguished Professorship was awarded in 1988 to Raymond C. Moreau, professor in 1987 and in 1992. Since then, 44 University of Kansas professors have been honored with this award.

Nominations for Distinguished Professorships come from faculty and students. The credentials of those students are scarcely known. The committee members include the vice chancellors for academic affairs, research and graduate studies, as well as the deans of some of the schools that have Distinguished professors and current Distinguished Professors.
THE COMMITTEE makes a final recommendation to the chancellor, who decides on the appointment of a Distinguished Professor.
"We look for people who are indeed leaders in their particular fields," Saricks said, "to seek people who are active and well-aware as well as interesting and effective teachers."
There are three categories of Distinguished Professorships: Regents Professorships, established through a special allocation from the Kansas Board of Regents; named Professorships, established by individual endowments and hour of the individual; and University Professorships, funded by the University.
Saricks said the Distinguished Professorships provided funds to supplement the state salaries of honored faculty, long as they remained with the University.
REGENTS PROFESSORS receive an additional $12,500 a year, and the supplementary salaries of named Professors vary with the endowment. Saricks said University Professors would receive $4,500 in addition to their regular salary this year.
The Lawrence campus has two Regents Professors, eight University Professors and 16 named Professors. Three Distinguished Students attend the University of Kansas Medical Center.
Regents Professorships were awarded in 1964 to Curt Teichert, professor of geology, and in 1967 to Taker Higuchi, professor of pharmaceutical chemistry.
University Professorships were awarded in 1963 to Paul W. Gilles, professor of chemistry; Charlton Himman, professor of化学;卡尔尔 Kollmorgen, professor of geography.
L. R. Lind was named University Professor in classics and archeology in 1964. Ralph N. Adams in chemistry in 1965 and R. S. Schiefbusch in child research in 1969.
UNIVERSITY PROFESSORSHIPS were awarded in 1863 to Paul W. Gilles, professor of English; and Walter Kolmörner, professor of geography.
Saricks said University Professorships were the most flexible kind because they
could be freely assigned to any department in the University. Named Professorships, however, are usually restricted by the enrolment funds them to a particular school, he said.
Charles D. Michener, professor of entomology, was named Elizabeth M. Watkins Professor in 1588; Paul E. Wilson, professor of law, was named John Kane Professor in 1688; Kenneth MacKenzie, professor of business, was named Edmund Learned Professor, Calder M. Pickett, professor of journalism, Oscar S. Stauffer Professor in 1973; and Richard A. Robison, professor of geology, was named Hedera Professor in 1974.
Named professorships in mathematics were awarded in 1963 to Nachman Aronzajn, Salon E. Summerlift Professor, and Gregory G. Baley Price, Ellis B. Stouffer
Roy A. Roberts Professorships were awarded in 1676 to John Brushwood, professor of Spanish and Portuguese, and in 1683 to Philippe, professor of law and political science.
Seven named Professors are in the School.
of Engineering. Richard K. Moore,
professor of electrical engineering, was named the Black and Veach Professor in 1962. John S. McNown, professor of civil engineering, was named the McNown Professor in 1965; Ross E. McKinney, professor of civil engineering, was named Glenn L. Parker Professor in 1966; Robert L. Smith, professor of civil engineering, was named Deane E. Ackers Professor in 1970; James F. Mackenzie, professor of engineering, was named Hoss H. Forney Professor in 1970; Russell B. Mesler, professor of chemical and petroleum engineering, was named Warren S. Bellows Professor in 1970; and Fred Kurata, professor of chemical and petroleum engineering, was named Deane E. Ackers Professor in 1974.
At the Medical center, Mahlon H. Delp, professor of medicine, was named Dr. Peter Greenwald, professor of human reproduction, was named Research Professor in 1961; and Max S. Allen, Edward H. Husinger, Professor in 1973.
