Pittsburg president aids morale
The Associated Press
PITTSBURG, Kans. — Under the Midwestern veneer of Pittsburg State president Donald Wilson is an international whirlwind who has rejuvenated morale, brought new ideas and enticed hundreds of students to his campus.
The school today has a decidedly international flavor, thanks to Wilson's trips to the Far East. He has personally persuaded hundreds of students from India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and China to attend the school.
"I just want people to know that you can be curious about the world from Pittsburg, Kansas, just as well as Los Angeles. "York City or Los Angeles," he said.
Wilson recently returned from the Orient, where he recruited students and visited Indonesian President Suharto, the subject of a book Wilson is writing. Indonesian is one of the seven languages Wilson speaks.
"Donald Wilson is amazing," said Jim Taylor, a Pittsburg psychology professor. "The school has turned around completely since he came."
While enrollment at other small Kansas colleges has declined in recent years, Pittsburg State has the last three years, to 5,000 this year.
Wilson's international recruiting efforts have helped more than double the number of foreign students on campus, from 150 to 350.
Brenda Macy, a 23-year-old junior, said every university should have a president like Wilson.
the foreign students here," she said. "They can tell us about their culture and they can learn about ours."
Officials say KU needs state funds
By JULIE McMAHON

Although the University of Kansas receives more private money than its peer schools because of endowment association assets, the University needs more money from the state through the Margin of Excellence proposal, KU officials say.
The Kansas University Endowment Association has assets of $196 million. The University of North Carolina, with $105 million in assets, is the closest to that of KU's five peer institutions.
The Margin of Excellence is the Board of Regents plan to bring state financing of e.g. schools to 95 percent on the level of their peer institutions.
KU's other peer schools, which are universities similar in size and mission, are the universities of Colorado, Iowa, Oklahoma and Oregon.
Chancellor Gene A. Budig said recently that KU had a high level of private support that had totaled $163 million over the past 10 years.
Tom Rawson, director of business and fiscal affairs, said that the Margin of Excellence is needed despite KU's large endowment assets because KU still is forced to spend less public money than the average of what its peer institutions spend for each credit hour. Also, private money is not available for all of the University's expenses.
Private money can't compensate for state money deficiencies, said Jim Martin, director of educational resources for the Endowment Association.
He said private money would not go toward expenses such as professor salary raises. He said those expenses come from the state.
And, Todd Seymour, president of the Endowment Association, said 97 percent of the Endowment Association's money was already designated by donors to be spent on certain areas.
"We're like a bank with 2,000 accounts," he said. "The 2,000 accounts own pieces of the total. It's not about profit is distributed to the accounts."
