New MSC pre9'dMf expected~ 8
Three finalists make last pitch fo' job by Bob Sekula Edltor's note: Donald Macln~ tyre vacated the MSC presidential office on Aug. 15, 1981 and the school began the complicated and the rather commonplace endeavor of finding another head man-its :;- third president in three years. Since Sept. 30 the Presidential Screening and Advisory Committee has sifted through 149 candidates. The committee narrowed the field to three: Neil Hum... phrey, executive vice president of Youngstown State University in Ohio; Richard M. Fontera, dean of the faculty and graduate school at Southeastern Massachusetts ·:. University; and Richard C. Meyer , vice president for academic affairs at Texas A&I University. 'l'he search process is expected to end April 8 when the Board of Trustees of the Consortium of State Colleges will choose one of the finalists to take kfaclntyre's place.
The three finalists recently spent some time on campus and in the following story reporter Bob Sekula offers some of his impressions of the candidates. Scene: The faculty and Faculty Senate are hearing and interrogating the first _of three candidates for the MSC presidency. I kept looking oyer at the faculty member unrepentently dozing at the end of the row. I was tempted to follow suit.

Addition·to Science Building approved by Harv Bishop A long sought addition to the Auraria Science Classroom Building has been approved-but not necessarily funded-as part of the state legislature's annual Long Bill. Page 235 of the 247-page"Long Bill which will govern state budget appropriations for .fiscal year 1982-83, only appropriates $529,~00 in planning funds for the addition but eve'n this may not be all&ated. Constructio11 funds are expected to be generated by the sale of UCO's East Classroom Building. A separate bill authorizing the CU Board of Regents to place the East Classroom Building on the auction block was · passed by the general assembly last month and is awaiting
the governor's signature. The legislature anticipates that the sale of the UCO building will not only fund the science building addition but also a replacement building for a classroom of equivalent space located on campus. The Joint Budget Committee, made up of house and senate members who are responsible for drawing up the Long Bill, projects a sales figure of $30 million for the East Classroom Building. Should the UCO sale exceed $23.5 million the legislature is requiring AHEC to repay the $529, 700 allotted for planning in the Long Bill. Sources note the $30 million is an arbitrary or ball park figure that was set not too high nor too low to jeopardize the official assessment.
