P RESIDENCY U MOYA HOOKAH LO U N C UI set to make final selection E'rin Harty Argonaut

Severe budget issues caused by the de- clining economy and a program prioritiza- tion process already set in motion make this a volatile time for University of Idaho. Both candidates for the position of UI president said they have what it takes to move the university forward. The two finalists have had their final interviews, and the announcement is on the horizon. Duane Nellis Duane Nellis, the current provost at Kan- sas State University,'aid the similarities between KSU and UI, such as the fact they are both land grant research universities, played a role in his pursuit of the position. 'It's a quality university, and UI takes peat pride in student success," Nellis said. 'I see from my assessment of UI where the university's needs are, are with where my strengths are. With my background and experiences, I feel I can truly make a differ- ence at UI." Nellis grew up in Montana and gradu- ated with a Ph.D. in geography from Or- egon State Uruversity. He first worked at KSU as a professor and then as an associate dean, moving to West Virginia .University for a time before return- ing to KSU. Lydia P cele, KSU's student body president, said Nellis has worked closely with students at KSU on a variety of proj- Duane ects and meets both with NejjjS student government and - faculty'mprove life at the university. "This year, one of the initiatives taken on by my cabinet was to look closely at oui study abroad program, and he really helped us improve the services for that o'- fice," Peele'aid. "Ithas been a great way to get a more diverse population to K-State." Nellis said KSU has doubled the num- Tyler Macy/Argonaut Moscow', ber of students studying abroad and The atmosphere and smooth flavors 'at Umoya, the new hookah lounge in downtown make it a has brought in students from a variety place for fnends to relax, talk, and s'moke. of backgrounds.
