Gissel finds tenure process inadequate

Volume 72, Number 12

Baseball team loses 'Treasure' of a chance

by Richard L~ Fronds Stfllllll'I Rcpnrtt'r

full house nt the April 24 Board ofTrmtees' meeting in the Kootrnai Room of the SUB heard Chrum1an Norm Gissel declnre that the entire mMructor tenure process is wholly inadcqua1c and that ii needs to be chruiged as soon as possible.

"We're a family driven mad by pnx.'Cdure," declared Gissel, without any dissent from other bo:utl members. ''We're concerned more with daw than quality of teachang." Gissel further stnted.

The board directed that a completely new policy R'ganling i11suuc1ors· contmcts be developed and 1ha1 the first reading of the proposed policy be ready by the end of Sep1embcr. At 1he March 27 mecrlng. two instructors were denied full tenure, ruid llmt event precipitated the chairman's commtnts.

The change of tenure policy was just one of sevcrnl major topics discussed. Other topics were: The announcement that Hugh Watson ofTeMessee will be replacing NJCAA legend Rolly Williams Ob the new hclld aiach of lhe Cnrdinal men's baskc1ball team. This was noted as lhe first C03ching change in 35 years.

Dean of StudenL~ David Lindsay reported to the board that he I) still in the pll)CeSl, of finding funding to replace Sheppard/Gridley Hall with n newer facility. The new modem building would be loc:nted north of lhe existing h:tll.

Bob Murray, cha1nnan of the division of natural sciences, reponcd on the rapidly increasing importance of Distributed Educ:uion- sometimes known as S111cllitc Education or Distwice Education. A1 a rec.cot conference in Phoenix. the future of this type of educru.ion:tl resource was touted a.~ havmg greate~ m1p;ic1 on the character and shape of higher cduca11on than any innovation since lhe invention of the printing press.

Murray's repon was a wakeup call to collegiate administnuors because it indiCllleS higher learning instiiutions will need to be restNCtUred radically in order lo compete in a global/lechnological environment.

Graduation: Impossible two-year task A

h. NIC. the four-year community college...

Thn.-e out of si~ editors on our Maff will be entering yCJ1r No. 3 in the fall. At one point tl·,crc may have been some sham<! invoh•ed m 1ha1. bu1 1his is the ' 90<1! Students have figured out graduating with a degree from NIC in two years is the impossible dre!!m.

Though cxnct numbers weren't nvaal:iblc from Rcgi.trar's Office. ii is obvious from talking to students around c:ampus thut two year; :11 NIC is JU\l nor enough.

Are students today JUSt plain lazy'! After all. our parents tinished their NIC education in 1wo years ... Or do colleges have an ult,mor motive in turning two years into a thn:c-ye:ir ordeal?

In order to receive your A.A. or A.S. you must romplcte 64 credih. TI1e 1110th is ~implc (for tho.w of you who have comple1cd your math requirement,). This commu~ you to 16 credits ,1 ~cmcster. The reg"trmion booklet ,tatc~ 1h:1t 12 crcdus 1, 11 full load. TI1ercfore. 16 orcdih mu,1 be an overload. Conveniently. the longer you ,my. the more you pay.

A majority of students come to NIC like bms t1u1 of hd l. bound and detcmuncd to get out of her\' an two yc;u even if II kills 1hcm. Well. it Jhno,1 doe, for those who nmkc 11. For those who don·1 • 11 can ~ccm hke a huge fnilu rc.

It ,s 11,pecially a ~•ruggle for tho~c of us who would like to tJkc some clas,c~ 01hcr than the re4um•d one,.

What if you've alway~ been curious about mythology or want to dabble a bit in u ccmmic, coul'lic'! College ,~ a time for hcallhy cxpcnmcni.111011. ll 1s o chance 10 find out what you like and what you're good at. but now 11~ccm~ there is room for no such behavior if you plan 10 ge1 our 111 four ycnrs. You have to suck to a Mrict ..chedulc ond save the lcanung for Inter. Co111rury to contemporory college adminb1m11on behef,. )Ontc of U) are here. not only get a degree, but leum all we can on 1he way. Ala,, our money ,,n ·t taking u~ that lar :myrnore.

The day wore on and I found myself \hunling between releasing duck( for the humer~ and ge11mg more liquid refrc~hmcnc~ for Call and hi, buddie,.

As nighc fall approached and 1he hunt was over. 1he member,· pany in the lodge began in camc,1.

If l recall correctly, i1 wa~ about midnight when I lost sight of Call.

Wandering outside I noticed a faint glow of illumination coming from his trailer.

Remembering whn1 Call had said that morning about keeping him supplied with liquor und seeing his light on. I sought 10 fun her ingrn11a1e my,elf by bringing him a nigh1c.ip.

After procuring the dnnk. I approached hi~ trailer. A knock on lus door did not

Since 1he govcmmcn1htm1·1 made any cxcepcions 10 1hi~. every semester l have been here (until now) I have wkcn a rull1m1c load so l con gel my :,id.

However. I think I have found a way co gel around my learning problems. 11·~ called 1he block plan. 111c way 1h1s system works is somewhat ~imilar 10 1hc way NIC does summer ~chool.

Opening his door. I peered in and saw the projecting light Call's 12 voll TV played 1he Tonight Show. And rencc1ed off the tube onto Call 's fold-out in a Jumble of bedding were Call ond Mr. Smithe~.

Now I comt from a very liberal family.

Should college athletes be paid?

Raithel says absolutely not, Woods says just do it As more college n1hle1es ore forgoing 1hcir ~cn1or sca.~on~ for 1he professional mnlcs. nnd high school youth nrc skipping college enLirely for the pros. the question is once again raised: Should college alhletcs be paid for playing their ~pons?

I ho,•e seveml reasons a~ 10 why I don '1 think they ~hould be allowed 10 make money Cody Raithel ploying sports.

Yes. I 1hink 1hm it Opinion is unfair how marketing agencies sell a player's jersey and 1hc player docsn'1 sec any of those dollars. But I ask. who does 11c1 1ha1 money? Mos! Oivi~ion I Schools only break even for major spons like baskc1ball. foo1ball. nnd minor bpons lil..c 1ennis and golf uctually are in the red area. Mo\l colleges can '1 nfford to pay their player~. So where is all this markc1ing money going? The some is 1ruc wi1h television conlmcb Where is 1hc money going? The mam problem I see w11h paying a college player 1s. how do you ju~tify 1hc amoun1? Do you pay u playtr hl..e Georgetown ·s Alan Iverson more 1hnn ~omeone like Iowa·, Jess Senk~? No mnner how much you pay an athle1c ii will never be enough. They will always want more.

My \ccond problem 1s how do you JUslify paying an a1hlete who will abuse 1hc ~ysh:m? I can Justtfy paying an athle1e lil..e Darnel Autrey or Ray Allen. but how do you Ju,11fy paying someone like Lawrcnct Phillips. a conv1c1cd wom11n 3buser?

I also )Ce n problem wi1h selling Mandards. If you pay the foo1ball 1cam you have 10 pay the golf 1eam just ns much. And. according 10 Ti1k IX. you have to pny a woman jus1 as much as a man. This mean\ you have to pay lhe women\ basketball team the same as the men·~.

I do think lhc NCAA ruling 1h01 ~ay~ college athletes cnnno1 hold down n Job i~ unfair. Allhough I know that some schools have abused the sys1cm of work study, you shouldn't label all a1hle1es by a few bad apples. I think tha1ii would be more lhan fair for a college a1hlc1e to have a full-ndc scholarship along Wllh having a pan-time summer job for spending

money.

Mow come you never hear 1hc debate of whe1hcr college journalists should have a Cull-ride scholarship? The srnff of 1his paper pUI$ in as much extra-curricular time ns an a1hle1e. Only editor.. receive a panial scholarship and miniscule payment for their work. This I$ the snme debate whe1hcr you pay a football player 1he same as a 1rnck aih le1c.

My final point i~1ha1 1he whole idea or going to college 10 play a spon is a nos1nlgie and mys1ical 1hing. My whole life I dreamed of playing in Kentucky 's Rupp Arena. I con honcs1ly say I would do thn1 for free.

Whnt ever happened 10 college commdery? Would 1he Four Horsemen of Notre Dame or 1hc Fiddling Five of Kcmucky ask 10 be paid? I don't 1hink so.

College a1hlc1cs. rm sorry. need 10 gc1 paid. I know. you're already thinking 'They do. 1l1cy ge1room and board. meal money. :1 free cduca1ion.

These nine people have won more notional championships 1hcn 1hc Fnb Five of Michigan ever did. and the Fab Five thought 1hey should have been paid. A college football player or baskc1ball player can wait four year~ and he will be making over a million dollars n year.

Michael Johnson, arguably the grea1cs1 athlc1c m the world. does no1 get p3id for wmning gold medal~ and break mg world record~. Sure he mal..es commercials, bu1 Johnson dO('s 1101 have the lu).ury to wail for a professional season because 1hcre isn' I one in track and field.

Fitness center could have been reality

by RO!iie Vogel

Stminrl Reporter r propo..ed blucpr1111~ 10 remodel the gym had been accepted a few ycnrs ago. Maff and Mudcnts would 1101 need 10 bu)' membcr..hip( nl area hcahh clubs

I

today Ln 1991. Rolly Williams. men's liaske1ball cooch. helped ru, mdutcct con~trucl blueprinis to \how 1he college board proposed revisions for the gym.

Not only did 1he proJtcllon mclude a media center from which ~tudent) could bl'03dc:u1 and 1elcv1\C games. addi1ional conference room~. un extended conces~1ons bar and numerou, remodeling plam, but the blucprin~ also made room for n fitne~s ctmer.

The proposnt called for adding 10 the l)'ln. creating 4,000 ~uarc feet of space on tht second floor equipped to handle c,crcise equipment and showers. Addiuonru entry and handicap access would have been available through Lee Hall.

Williams stres~d. "It would not be a wtight room. but a fitness ..:enter."

He said 5uch a facility would have

allowed for compu1eri1.cd. personnl c,crcisc routines for the slnff. community, siudc,m, and pos~ibly Booster Club members who might hnvc been able 10 U$C the fitnes~ center These plru,s, which possibly could have provided NIC with a limes~ ctnter today, were not accepted. Wi lliums s1ud he wru, nc,·cr 1old why the pion Wal> rejected.

'1'hc concept of this had been accepted, I 1hougl11," he s:,id.

Willinms said there 1s nothing in the long· rnngc pl11m for the school to do ~omethmg, like adding ,\ fiuie5s center, lo 1he gym.

"In ull of the thing, 1ha1 we, as nn a1hle1ic group, thought were a priority, the No. I thing that all or u, 11grced 1h111 wa~ needed was n filncs~ center," Willinms said. '1'hcrc are very M1t111l high ~hools that havt I0 1imc< whnl we hove."

John Owen. wrt.~tllng coach and physil".il educuuon instructor, swd he feels that one of the things NIC needs most b a facility such :u tilt- one Williams proposed.

"A fitne,s ctntcr would benefit students of all ages." Owen said. " It would aid the quality of our school and enrollment by

appealing 10 recruit~. ju,1 as the library do.:s."

According to Owen, n number of teaching positions would alw be made avatlnble for studtnl~ majoring in the ..1rca of fitncs,.

When posed with the que~tion of whether or no1 thi~ type or facility on campu~ would hun local tnhlet.ic dubs, Owc:n said no. ·11,cy are all crowded and it'~ impossible 10 get into their parking lots," Owen said "Besides, mo\l )tudcnts cllltnOl afford 10 buy membei,hip~."

According 10 Owen. u fi1nc'>s center would not be: dominn1cd by uthletcs. He ~..ud that uthlc1c, \\Ould practice their spons instead of \l)Cllding time with weights and nmchines ·11,e only time the wrestlers lift we1ght5 b when I tell th.:m 10," Owen sn1d. "I have 10 force them to do it."

Owen ~id there is only talk of giving NIC n fimcss center. He also said current idea.\ call for transfonning pan of Hedlund Building 11110 one.

NlC president Bob Bennett said he would like to - the school have a tiUlC)S center and cxpre$$Cd the possibility of making the

h1du_,1rinl An~ carpentry building into one with floor 10 ceiling window).

But Owen said n litn,:,,s cc111er would n<..'t'd 10 be added on 10 the gym. where Mnff could make ,urc that people were co1Tec1ly u~111g and caring for the equipment.

Both Owen and Dean Bennett of S1udc111 Ac1ivi1ies rn:,dc reforenco: 10 the fimess ce111er recently built a1 Spokane Fall5 Community Collcgi:.

'1'he facility at SFCC I'> nboul five ye:,n, old and cost around S3 million." Bcnnell said. '1'hey L'lkc: ~uch good care of the equipment that it still looks brand new."

Bcnncn suid A~~oci:itcd Students ofNlC brought up the idea of adding u fitnc\s cenll:r with the remockhng ol the Student Union Building. but the lune!:. were no1 avoilablt:.

Bob BeMCll, Dean Bo:nncn, Owen~ and Williams aJI uueed that money is an i.ssuc.

"But it. would not be c.,pcnsive in the long run." Williwns said. "h's a maner of wha1 is considered 10 be imponant ·• '1'here arc other need~ for tilt- school like a new donnitory," Owen S11id. "But not all students live in a donn. However, everybody would use a fitnes) center."
