University of Bridgeport Vol. 3, No. 10 December 1,1983 2 5 cents Wahlstrom on Trial

by Donna Ditchkus Professor Justus vein der Kroef, chairman of the political science department, said he feels UB isn’t spending enough money on new library books. “Fair- field University,” he said, “has fewer students and is spending more overall on available information than we are in terms of total number of students . . . We are not maintaining a rate of purchase in proportion to students. “We must also define what kind of university we are going to be, and put that emphasis on the library plan­ ning,” he said. He also said that not enough is being of­ fered now in the way of book sources, periodicals and other necessary information. He also said, funds must still be available for programs that are only supportive and not primary. In order to have a long-range plan, he said, a decision must be made as to what type of information will have a primary emphasis on certain professional colleges or only a sup­ portive and minimal emphasis. But we must first deter­ mine what the long-range plan will emphasize regarding the future of the university. “We must develop a library in light of the long-range plan . . . If we are to keep on a number of basic pro­ grams in the humanities department—for example, the Capstone program or Psychology—then we need to maintain journals and books on the subject,” he said. According to van der Kroef, we were behind three years ago, and again two years ago. He also said he feels the university is lacking qualified services, necessary computers, and data basing processing. (continued on page 4)

Adelphi or Bust by Dan Smith

Starting today, Warren K. Cooper will no longer serve UB as vice-president of student services. Vice-President Cooper is assuming the position of vice-president of in­ stitutional advancement at Adelphi University in Garden City, New York. According to Cooper, a replacement for his position hasn’t been named. “I don’t know how long it will be (until a replacement is appointed),” he said. For the time being, Cooper’s subordinates will report to other vice-presidents. Jacqueline Benamati, dean of student life, will report to Provost Eigel. Norma Abrams, director of financial aid, will report to Richard Huss, Dr. van der Kroef associate vice-president of enrollment planning. Huss will also assume responsibility for part-time studies. Vice-president Cooper’s stay at UB has been a very successful one. He explained that when he came to UB in 1978 “there were a lot of challenges” that had to be worked on. “It took time for me to get this rolling.. .and 23 days to put in place a highly competent staff,” he said. Cooper’s work first paid off in 1980 when UB saw a six Editor’s Note: percent increase in the number of freshmen. 1981 I would like to personally wish the best o f luck to Vice- ’til marked another increase, this time amounting to a stag­ President Cooper at his new position at Adelphi. gering 24 percent Following a drop of 20 percent in In my dealings with the administration, I have found 1982, this year UB had a five percent increase in new Vice-President Cooper to be one of the most pleasant Christmas full-time students and a ten to 15 percent increase in and helpful members of the staff.
