Adjunct faculty cut

By Randy Anderson Staff Writer An undetermined number of adjunct faculty were left without jobs at Central State University Monday, the first day of fall classes, due to an unexpected shortfall in funds discovered at the last minute by campus administrators. "The dismissal of adjunct faculty was apparently due to several reasons," said Dr. Albert Lynd, assistant vice president for academic affairs. "In order to respond to the high enrollment at CSU for the fall of '89, we added more sections of certain courses so that we would not be turning away students," said Lynd. "We didn't think we would be exceeding our adjunct faculty budget." "Chairpersons are supposed to work very closely with college deans in hiring adjunct faculty," said Joyce Mounce, administration vice president. "But apparently in this in-

CSU enrollment sets record

By Karnali Mazlan Staff Writer Fall '89 pre-enrollment at Central State University reached record proportions for the second time in the last two years. Registrar Darrell Gilliland said Friday's enrollment tally came to a total of 12,698 students at 5 p.m., up 2.5 percent, or 309 students, from last fall. However, he said, "We enroll more than 570 students today (Monday), for late enrollees and those students who had to reenroll because of non-payment on Friday. "And, by the time late enrollment is completed on Sept. 5, I'm going to estimate our enrollment could reach 14,600 students this fall." Gilliland said Friday's estimates showed substantial growth for sophomore level classes which currently total 2,137 students, a 14.8 percent increase from last year's fall enrollment. Senior enrollment totalled 2,190, up 5.5 percent. Enrollment for junior and

freshmen classes dipped slightly from last fall with only 2,158 juniors are currently enrolled enrolled, a decrease of 1.9 percent, and a drop of .8 percent for freshmen. Current figures show freshman enrollment at 3,367. The number of graduate students also fell .4 percent, a total of 2,846 students enrolled in post-graduate. "The record enrollment this fall is partially because of new admission standards to colleges and universities in Oklahoma," Gilliland said. "A greater number of high school graduates seems to be sufficiently prepared for college, particularly in business and education undergraduate level courses." Accelerated enrollment figures prompted the closing of 550 CSU classes Friday, Gilliland said. "But now, only about 180 classes are closed, after some students had been dropped because of non-payment of tuition and fees," he added. In addition, the growing stu-

dent body has CSU administrators scrambling for additional classroom space. Gilliland said, arrangements have been made to rent classroom space at three area churches. The relocations will primarily affect Monday, Wednesday and Friday morning classes. He said 11 classes are currently being taught at the Baptist Student Union, located near the CSU campus; First United Methodist Church, at 305 E. Hurd; and Dayspring Church of Christ, at Chowning Avenue and Ayers, Gilliland said. He said there have been students requesting additional scheduling for classes at 5:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. "We try to make sure a variety of courses are being offered at these times, and a few more in the afternoon, at 11:40 a.m., 12:30 p.m., and 1:40 p.m.," he said.

stance, something went wrong," Mounce added. According to the Dean of the College of Business, Dr. Joe Kinzer, all chairpersons of departments met Monday to make the neccessary adjustments to help balance the budget, which had apparently exceeded the preset limit. "We were asked to cut sections with less than 10 students, unless the class was required for graduation," said Kinzer. As of 2 p.m. Tuesday, three of the four CSU deans had submitted their section deletions to the office of academic affairs. In the College of Mathematics and Science, Dr. G. Kay Owens reported 16 deletions. Dr. Kenneth Elsner reported 14 deletions in the College of Education, and Dr. Joe Kinzer re-

ported eight deletions in the College of Business. Dr. Clifton Warren, dean of the College of Liberal Arts, had not yet submitted his report, according to Mounce. "We're going to use $400,000 for Academic Affairs Dr. Clyde Jacob. CSU had allocated $600,000 to be used for adjunct faculty purposes in 1989-90, said for the fall semester," said Mounce. "Enrollment is usually the heaviest during this time." When asked why adjunct faculty positions were deleted on the first day of the fall semester, Mounce said, "Usually, departments' chairpersons don't get details of adjunct professors un-

Full-time faculty hired By Ann Hamilton Copy Editor Central State University has 29 new faculty members for the 1989 fall semester. New CSU faculty members include seven hired in the College of Business Administration, six in the College of Education, nine in the College of Liberal Arts, and seven in the College of Mathematics and Science. "We have needed them for a long time," said Dr. Richard Rettig, chairman of the sociology department, of the two faculty members added in his department. "They are both excellent lecturers, and have great credentials their field," Rettig said. The two new faculty members are Sue Waller and Harald 0. Schweizer. The faculty announcements were made by the respective deans of each college at the General Faculty/Staff meeting on August 17. "Last year we had a retirement incentive program. We lost 21 or 22 full-time, seniorlevel faculty and because of the economic situation, we were unable to replace all of those full-time faculty," said Dr.

Clyde Jacob, vice president for academic affairs. CSU's compliment of fulltime faculty was down 40 or 50 members, due to the overall economic condition in Oklahoma over the past four of five years, he said. "About a year ago, we began to replace some of those positions. We put together a plan to try to replace vacant positions, but obviously not all in one year," Jacob said. "We decided to divide recruitment into two broad areas. The first is replacement for current-year resignations and retirements, and the second category we call 'new' although that's somewhat of a misnomer, because these 'new' positions are really positions that have been vacant for the past four or five years," Jacob said. "Last year, we added eight or 10 full-time faculty in this second category. This year, we added 12, and next year we hope to add 15 faculty in the second category, that is beyond the current-year replacements necessary to maintain our programs," he said. "This should restore our faculty to pre-1985 levels by next year," Jacob said.

Status, salary bolster needed for teachers By Larry Floyd Guest Writer

Robin Osburn completed her teaching practicum at an Oklahoma City primary school and graduated from Central State University in 1982. Disappointed in the low teaching salaries in Oklahoma and the lack of respect she was shown by her students and their parents, Osburn took a job as an insurance adjuster. Osburn's career move, like many others, is becoming an alltoo-typical occurrence in Oklahoma and the rest of the nation. Many of the country's potential educators are becoming frustrated with low pay and poor working conditions. As a result, many teachers are careerhopping out of the school systems, opting for job opportunities more rewarding financially and less taxing emotionally. Changes are needed to ensure a steady supply of quality

Editorial public schoolteachers to educate the nation's young. In Japan, the term 'teacher' is a highly respected title, just as the title of 'doctor' or 'judge' is in this country. Furthermore, Japanese schoolteachers are highly respected professionals in their communities. Their salaries, relative to other educated professionals, reflect their high standing in society. It is probably more than coincidental that Japan has a rich stock of motivated public educators and, at the same time, a cadre of brilliant young engineers and scientists. It's no accident that Japanese industry is currently setting the pace of world technology. The United States must ensure its own supply of quality public educators: First, by compensating them with a salary

commensurate to their level of training and the academic importance a field of study is to society. A $30,000 annual salary that is only on par with compensation for a middle-level manager in the U.S. private sector would be an increase of around $10,000, or 50 percent, for most teachers in this country. Secondly, an important step for recruiting and maintaining quality educators is to upgrade the social status of schoolteachers. This can be partially accomplished through teacher certification programs, qualifying those teachers who meet prescribed standards of knowledge and ability. With technology demands for the 21st century soon needed, educating the young minds of this country must start now. This will not happen without applying needed changes promoting the urgent need for well-compensated, motivated educators.

Reform aid aimed at wrong target By Mark Schlachtenhaufen Guest Writer

President Bush recently offered several European countries monetary incentives for future democratic reform. Ironically, it is the United States' political system that is need of reform. Two areas of major concerns are political action committees and the electoral college. PACs are special interest groups that offer government officals thousands of dollars in exchange for favoritist legislation. The electoral college is the determining factor in presidential elections, not the vote of the people today. Both institutions should be eliminated in order to alleviate ethical standards and, in turn, increase voter participation. A multitude of other problems have contributed to embarassingly low voter turnouts—about 60 percent of all eligible voters last November. It is apparent that something in the equation is wrong. The time for change is now. Political apathy has increased with the high attrition rate of the Reagan administration's eight-year span of crime, internal strife and external espionage. Iran-Contragate tops Watergate in both style and substance. An ex-Marine colonel rose to national promi-

Commentary nence while he knowingly deceived Congress. Meanwhile, North receives thousands of dollars for speeches and book sales after committing a felony. Something is wrong. Change is appropriate now. It could be related to former Speaker of the House Jim Wright who resigned after years of faithful political service to his country. Congressmen Wright who resigned after years of faithful political service to his country. Congressmen currently earn a healthy salary plus income from outside interests. However, a limit is imposed on these substantial offerings, and Wright surpassed the cap by thousands of dollars. Something is wrong. Change is necessary now. It is easy to understand why Americans have become disenchanted with a political system the founding fathers would surely abandon if they were alive today. A consensus of public opinion has yet to be reached on these issues. The r. ational need for reform will never be actualized unless paramount changes occur — peaceful, popular change is ininherent in a democracy.

The future of this nation's political system depends on the ability of the American voter to intiate a change of course. Otherwise, memories of the

Oliver Norths and Jim Wrights of governments past will exist only in history books and fade away with the years, unless the people show they care.

An open letter to Dr. Lillard: For years I have championed the excellence of CSU which too often is the Cinderella of the three major universities in Oklahoma. The academic program is innovative and the consideration for its large working and commuting student body has been ahead of its time. I am appalled that CSU is now so insensitive to its students that it cavalierly cancels classes not because there are too few students in them, but because there is a sudden shortfall of such magnitude between the last day of registration and the first day of classes that the University is panicked into a slaughter of classes. Is planning the academic year so carelessly done at CSU that so many classes are cut the first day? Students have in good faith rearranged their lives in some cases left their jobs and of course all have paid their tuition. I am a graduate student in the creative writing department.

The cuts may seem small in a large department. In a small one they are lethal. Is it possible to have a creative writing program without an adequate course in poetry? Or a selection of courses on novel writing?

Management error upsets grad student

Letter Is CSU shooting itself in the foot? The creative writing program draws students from across the country. It is among the best and ranks with Stanford and Dartmouth. The large number of published writers is a testimony to its success, the excellence of the program and the high caliber of its teachers. Please do not gut the successful programs to make up this sudden shortfall. The future reputation of the university depends on these successful programs, not on the size of the xerox budget. Sincerely, Ann S. Savage, Graduate Student

Anonymous gift going for CSU's centennial By Bill Kramer

Staff Writer

An unrestricted gift of nearly 5250,000 was given to Central State University by a donor who will remain anonymous until Friday, Oct. 13, which is the birthday of the donor. Director of Communications/Publications at CSU, Linda Jones, said the money has been placed into an account solely for the purpose of using the interest gained for centennial celebration purposes in the upcoming year. "The account will draw roughly 518,000 per year, and the school will probably just use the interest at this time," Jones said. Jones also said the university will rename one of the campus buildings in honor of the donor

with approval by the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges. "Any time a building is renamed, the regents must be consulted, and they must give approve the change," said Jones. On Oct. 13, the university is planning a ceremony, including a luncheon in the donor's honor, Jones said. "This is the first major gift the university has received for the centennial effort," added Jones. Although the actual centennial does not begin until the 1990-91 academic school year, plans are being made now, Jones said. "We are trying to find a really big name entertainer for the celebration," Jones said, "but no one has been chosen at this time.

U. S. Ed Dept. verifies low CSU default rate sistance programs stated CSU's current default rate situation. "Since your school's fiscal year 1987 default rate was 20 percent or below, it is not required to implement a default management plan or take any of the other default reduction steps required in the final regulations for schools with high default rates." According to the U.S. Department of Education, for 772 CSU students who entered repayment during fiscal year 1987, a total of 15 had defaulted by the end of fiscal year 1988, for the recent default rate of 1.9 percent. While these default rates are favorable for CSU, the university plans to watch the financial aid programs carefully, said Lillard.

A -U.S. Department of Education report earlier this year had placed the default rate at more than 40 percent. A rate of only 1.9 percent was reported to be the actual default rate for fiscal year 1988.

`Photograph' opens season By Mark Mitchell Managing Editor

A reception sponsored by the Central State University Museum of Art Aug. 20 marked the opening of the third annual exhibition based on the theme of "the painted photograph." The 73 piece exhibition, entitled "The 'Painted' Photograph Part Three: The Marriage of Making and Taking," represents the efforts of 34 artists, most of whom live and work in the metroplex, said guestcurator John Pickard, assistant professor of humanities and philosophy at CSU. William Wallo, associate professor of art and museum curator said photography defined in formal terms was not required of submitted pieces, rather the interpretation of a "painted photograph" was totally subjective and open to the artist. Wallo said the inference of photography was achieved in the context where use of a camera for "making" a photograph could be paralleled in the realm of "making" by the artists' own skills. "It is within this context that the marriage between the taking and making occurs," said Wallo.

"This exhibit represents a great deal of thoughtful energy," he said. Pickard said the exhibit was growing in the consciousness of the art community in this geographic area although previous shows have attracted works from both coasts. This year the 34 artists exhibiting were chosen from a pool of 40 whereas last year 13 of the original 15 returned with 10 additional entrants participating, he said. "The artists return for the challenge, said Pickard, "They want to create for this show and look forward to this show," he said. Pickard stressed that this is not an academic show. "It's experimental," he said. This university museum is fulfilling an important function that no other art museums are involved in, other than student shows, he said, and that is the discovery, encouragement and exhibition of works by the area's best artists. He said it was important the museum "expose CSU students to stimulation that never existed before." The 1989 exhibit is divided into three sections; History—

The Land Run Centennial, New Invited Artists, and Returning Artists. The historical is the result of efforts by Wallo and Jenny Woodruff, a local photographer/artist. The "Sooner and Later Centennial Calendar," a 23-month calendar the museum is selling from this portion of the exhibit, catalogues Woodruff's work. The exhibit will be on display until Sept. 26.

Physical plant director strives for cooperation By Bill Kramer Staff Writer

A new man is at the helm of the physical plant at Central State University. The position became open this summer when university officials dismissed Nimrod Chapel after an investigation into alleged irregularites within the physical plant department. David McClellan began running the CSU physical plant July 3. "I want to be a postive influence on the employees of the physical plant and I want our relations to other campus offices to be improved," McClellan said. "I have this need to know my people. Nobody works for me, we all work with each other," McClellan said. McClellan is a graduate of Mounds High School and attended Northeastern State University in Tahlequah. He hopes to complete his degree at CSU in the near future. McClellan comes to CSU after working 13 years as production superintendant for LaBarge Tu

bular, Inc. of Tulsa and four years at Ouachita Corrections Center in Heavener as building and maintenance superintendant. He and wife Frieda, have two children, Darvin, 25 and Rhonda, 21. Both are graduates of NSU. McClellan's wife teaches special education for the Jones Public School system. McClellan said he thinks it is most important that the physical plant staff feel comfortable with him in his leadership position. "The physical plant staff feels like my door is always open and they can come in and voice their opinions and problems at any time," McClellan said. "Together there is nothing we can't do, and if we don't work together, there's nothing we're going to get done," he said. "I feel it's important to surround yourself with good people," McClellan said. "I think you should get them materials and tools to work with and then get out of the way and let them do their job."

Employee insurance increases 19 percent Officials say premium hikes unavoidable

By Kamal Mazlan Student Writer Complaints made by some full-time Central State University employees that their pay raises have been diminished by an increase in the current health insurance premiums was refuted Monday by Charles Johnson, assistant vice president for administration, personnel services. "To my knowledge, there was not a great deal of criticism. Obviously we don't like to pay increases in premiums. That's something we cannot control," said Johnson. Full-time CSU employees participating in the group health insurance have continued coverage with American Fidelity Assurance Co. from July 1 to Dec. 31 of this year, with a 19 percent increase in monthly premiums. Johnson said the administration currently pays a premium of S113.15 per month for each full-time CSU employee. Ap-

proximately 850 CSU employees, including faculty, are participating in the insurance program. "The Oklahoma Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges made the decision (rune 14) on health insurance contracts. We (CSU administration) simply extended the coverage with American Fidelity with the understanding that it will be looked at again on Jan. 1 of next year," Johnson said. CSU, along with five other regional universities, had opted for employee health insurance with the State Education and Employee Insurance program, according to an article in the May 4 issue of The Vista. However, in a memo sent out by Johnson to CSU's employees, the decision was reconsidered by the regents after questions arose concerning the financial condition of the state plan and recommended enormous increases in premiums.

The regents voted May 14 to delay the six regional universities' participation in the state plan, but it will continue to be monitored, according to a memo sent June 15 to CSU employees. "Everything is monitored from time to time. Only after additional facts are known about the state plan can we determine the best deal for CSU employees," Johnson said. "For example, the premium is determined by the amount of pay claims. If an employee's pay claims are high, then he will receive a high premium," Johnson added. Johnson said the regents will make the final decision on which contract CSU will have for the first six months of next year.

54 return for gridiron season By Randy Anderson Sports Writer

Central State University recently completed pre-season football drills in preparation for the upcoming season which begins September 2 when the Bronchos travel to NebraskaOmaha. The Bronchos are returning 54 players from last year's squad which finished with a 4-5 overall record, and 4-3 Lone Star Conference record. According to head coach Gary Howard, the Bronchos are solid with most of the frontliners. The offensive backfield, the linebackers and the secondary are also strong, but depth is a concern at a number of positions.

The Bronchos return 20 starters and 34 lettermen from last year's squad to the gridiron in preseason drills. CSU's season opener is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. Sept. 2 in Omaha, Neb. (Photo by Stan Pollard)

"Depth will probably always be a problem; it's basically the nature of any team at our level," Howard said. "If we have a few injuries, we'll get mediocre in a hurry. We just lack that type of depth, but there are a lot of teams in the same situation."

"We are looking forward to getting the players in and going back to work," said Howard. "I'm confident that most of the players have been working out and staying in shape, which will let us get to work faster instead of having to worry so much about conditioning." Returning to offensive positions for the Bronchos: seniors Alan Vanover and Brento Vann; juniors Doug Brown, Brian Hamlin, Terrance Jones, Zane Burgess, Pinkey Hurley and Scott Key; and sophomore Glen Braxton. Those returning to defensive positions: seniors Robert Gordon, M.B. Watts and Curtis Hill; juniors Brant Lane, Mike Bennett and Wade Standley; and sophomores Tony Bryan and Chris Braxton. Also returning are junior punter Waymon Potts, senior kick-off specialist Bruce Palmer, and senior place-kicker Kelly Nasworthy. "We know we have got a number of players coming back, but we still have our work cut out for us," said Howard. "The success we had late last season carried over into the spring, and we made a lot of progress and came out a better team."

Runners prepare for NCAA ll By Mark Schlachtenhaufen Student Writer

1989 will be the first year for the Central State University track program at the NCAA Division II level and Coach Paul Parent said he is excited about the upcoming season. "This is our first season to have a legitimate women's cross-country team and our first year in NCAA Division II," Parent said. "Everybody's getting in pretty good shape and we have a good nucleus to build around."

Parent is heading into his 4th season as women's coach and 11th with the men. In 1988, the Broncho's men's and women's cross-country teams finished 2nd and 3rd respectively. Parent has even higher expectations for 1989. "We'll finish at least that high this year," he said. "Although both programs look improved, we know how tough Conference rivals Abilene Christian and Angelo St. are." The Broncho cross-country squad will return a total of 21 athletes, seven women and 14 men. Track and field expect 44

men and 13 women. The cross-country season begins Sept. 9 with the Oklahoma State All-Corners meet in Still-

water. Other important dates include the Lone Star Conference Championships at San Angelo, Tx. in October.

Broncho defense adds OU transfer By Bill Kramer Staff Writer

CSU's defense works with the Broncho offense in full pads, full contact drills last week. CSU will count on several new players to provide big plays and depth off the bench defensively. (Photo by Stan Pollard)

Keith Traylor, a former inside linebacker at the University of Oklahoma, has transferred to Central State University, adding what the coaches hope will be a major bonus to the CSU defense. Traylor, a 6-2, 251-pounder, was an All-American at Coffeyville Community College in Kansas. For spring drills at OU, Traylor was listed as the number two man on the depth chart. However, he failed to meet academic requirements after his only semester at OU.

"I transferred to Central State and changed my mind about attending Souteastern State (in Durant) because I realized I would only be going down one step into NCAA Division II rather than two steps down into NAIA," Traylor said. Traylor, a Malvern, Ark., native, is expected to be a fine addition to the CSU defense according to CSU Sports Information Director Mike Kirk. "He doesn't seem to be having any problems here so far, he has fit it well. The players welcome anyone with the ability he has because they know it will contribute to the success of the team," said Kirk. Southeastern State Coach Sloan Morris is very unhappy about Traylor's last-minute switch to a rival school. Morris as quoted in the Aug. 14 issue of the Tulsa World said, "My whole concern is with ethics. Once a player signs with a school, other schools ought to honor the player's decision. "It's like his signature with us was worthless," Morris said. The reason Traylor was able to sign with CSU is because the letter he signed with Southeastern is not binding on NCAA schools, according to Morris. CSU is now an NCAA school, competing in Division Morris said the switch just sets a bad example for the athlete. "CSU's defense just got a lot better," Morris said. Indeed, Kirk belives Traylor did make CSU's defense better. "He's definitely something to work with," said Kirk. Traylor will be immediately eligible for the 1989 athletic season and will have two years of eligibility remaining at CSU because of OU's probation. Central State opens the season Sept. 2 at Nebraska-Omaha and the home season, Sept. 9 against Southeastern State.

Spikers prepare for '89 season By John Lukehart

Sports Editor Central State University's volleyball team began preparing for the upcoming season Aug. 18. The Lady Bronchos host Cameron Sept. 1 in their season-opener. Lady Broncho volleyball coach Joe Curl said he is ready to get started and is happy with the new recruits. "We're excited about getting started," Curl said. "We feel we made a lot of progress during the off-season and I'm elated with the recruits and new girls we have coming in. I think we can be the most improved team in the conference." However, Curl said improvement will take hard work. "We've got a lot of work ahead of us, but we've got the type of girls who are prepared to make the sacrifices necessary to make us a competitive team."

ADJUNCTS Continued from page 1 til just before the semester

begins." Mounce said the state legislature and the regents had allocated $37 million to CSU for next year, compared to $34 million the previous year. "The regents stipulated that most of the increase in our school budget should be used primarily to raise salaries of faculty and to fill adjunct faculty positions. "Thus, $600,000 had been set aside for adjunct faculty, and not $2 million, as had been rumored on campus. There has never been $2 million allocated for adjuncts. That's a ridiculous figure, Mounce said. "What went wrong was that we just ran out of time," said Jacob. "We had meetings last week with all the deans and discussed what had to be done to control the budget that had jumped to $520,000. "We had to get the budget down to $400,000 and we had to do it in a professional, managerial way," Jacob said. Of the $400,000 budgeted for the fall semester, the College of Liberal Arts will receive 40 percent of the funds, or $160,000. The College of Business will receive 22 percent of the funds,

totaling $88,000. The College of Education will receive 15 percent of the funds, totaling $60,000, and the College of Mathematics and Science will receive 24 percent, or $96,000. The remaining $200,000 will be used for the spring semester, Jacob said. "Two hundred thousand dollars for spring will have to be enough for spring," Jacob added. Administrators say they are still in the process of determining how many adjunct faculty will be affected. The adjunct faculty budget for last year was $1 million. Less money was allocated for adjunct positions this year, Jacob said, so that more full-time professors could be hired. Letters went out this week informing students of the closed sections. Jacob said students will be refunded or credited for cancelled sections. "This won't happen again. We've learned our lesson," said Lynd. Administrators, though, offered no plan for how they would prevent such shortfalls in the future. "We will use this as a learning experience, to become more effective managers of the university," said Jacob.

Adjunct dismissals stun CSU faculty By Bill Kramer Staff Writer

A professor and an assistant professor in Central State University's geography department are upset over the discrepencies in the university's budget which have caused the termination of adjunct teachers in the department. Geography professor Don Green said he thinks the university has reached a limit as far as enrollment is concerned, and that by losing the adjunct teachers matters are only becoming worse. "I'm not placing the blame on anyone. I don't see a scapegoat. In a way, losing the adjunct teachers is a logical outcome for shortchanged higher education," Green said. "I think the university had to hire adjunct faculty in the past to keep up with rising enrollment. "It's much cheaper to hire adjunct faculty rather than at-

hire full-time professors," Green said. Anne Lynch, assistant professor of history and geography at CSU, said the university has lost most of the upper-division courses in the geography department. "The honors courses have been eliminated from course offerings at CSU, and students obviously will not benefit from the program now," said Lynch. "One of the sociology professors has been asked to teach a course he has never taught before in addition to not having textbooks to work with. The students will not benefit at all from this class," Lynch said. Lynch said two adjuncts were released who held doctorates and will be missed because of their experience. "I am questioning whether there are any legal problems involved," Lynch added. "It really hurts the students' education because of all the problems." tempt to

Novelist resigns protesting cuts By Bill Kramer Staff Writer

A Central State University lecturer is resigning from his position after 10 years because of a funding problem. Mike McQuay, lecturer in the CSU creative studies department said in a telephone interview Tuesday that he is tired of the hassle regarding funding for teaching an advanced novel class at CSU and he is resigning because of it. "I guess you could say I'm resigning. The creative studies department is very important to me and I've worked with it for 11 years now," McQuay said. "I have been promised a second class for 10 years and it was finally okayed last Friday (Aug. 18). I was called Monday (Aug.

I've had about 80 of my students publish books and I have enjoyed many successes," said McQuay. "I know of many angry students right now. I had people commuting from as far away as Tulsa because of my teaching at CSU. The university is simply causing disruption in a fine department. The creative studies department at CSU was one of the best in the country," McQuay said. McQuay said he is not sure whether he is working for the university or not. However, he said his desire alone for teaching the students is not enough to keep him here. Dean of the College of Liberal Arts, Clif' Warren refused to comment. dents.
