Senate member Gaty Canavez expressed concem over the com pensation a faculty member would receive if they were to create an online course. Other senate members voiced similar concems about the idea of online courses, stating their thoughts about making sure there is a quality control measure involved and questioning how online classes could be accredited. Another issue brought up was the ease with which students could cheat in online classes.

One thing that needs to be noted is that the administra tion could be seen as unstable since there is only one full time vice president, the other three are acting vice presi dents while searches are being started to fill the openings. Although Eastem President Carol Surles' "acting" admin istration has over 75 years Help wanted of experience working in Old Main. there will still Eastern's administration may be be gaps between the acting seen as unstable with three acting vice president and one administrators and the new, permanent vice president. pennanent ones. These years of experi ence seem great on the surface, but taking a deeper look indicates that when these national searches are complete and Eastem hires new vice presidents, who will potential ly know very little about Eastem, those years of experi ence will mean very little. To date, the Eastem administration consists of an act ing vice president for business affairs, academic affairs and extemal relations. What if the acting vice president for business affairs starts a project and a permanent vice president is hired, is there a guarantee that the project will continue? These are concems that need to addressed. President Surles and the members of the search com mittee need to speed up the interview process. The longer it takes to hire replacements for the replacements the more problems that will arise. The four vice president positions are essential to the success of the university. At a time when Eastem is expe riencing a lot of change, there needs to be stability in the administration. To do this, the vacant spots must be filled and the acting vice presidents need to keep the progress to all those that were destroying and of the university on track.
