Richard Berger, 19, was fatally shot in the head during that spree-a shooting Roos said could have been avoided if Public Safety had been able to stop Lai at Stony Brook rather than wait for county police to do so. "Richard Berger would have still been alive today," he said. Francis, however, said reports showed Berger's alleged murderer was out of Stony Brook by the time anyone responded to the shooting. Response Time Roos also charged that Public Safety officers are obligated to protect the community and they are unable to do so without weapons. The response time for county police, he said, is 12 to 20 minutes. The response time of campus officers is two to three minutes. Public Safety officers, Roos said, are trained as well as other police officers and are in fact better qualified than some of their off-campus colleagues.

Page 4 DSTATESMAN March 31, 1982 Outreach Features Provost Homer Neal By John W. Wicks Under dim lights a small audience of students gathered last night in O'Neills College's Main Lounge to discuss academic concerns with Provost Homer Neal. Neal expressed his concerns and explained steps he has taken since his arrival at Stony Brook in Sep- tember. He outlined the provost's general responsibili- ties which are staffing, tenure awards, curriculum review, grading policy, advertising for and filling administrative posts, decisions concerning the adding and dropping schools, renaming buildings and mak- ing key budget allocation decisions. Neal was direct and pointed out Stony Brook's con- sideration of incepting a graduate business school and the significance of Stony Brook's conducting a curricu- lum review, something he said is conducted "once every 10 years or so." He also stressed the probability that many campus buildings will be renamed because their present names have become obsolete. "No one pretends that biology will ever be taught in Old Biol- ogy," Neal said. He added that budget cuts also play an important role in accelerating the process of assessing priorities in allocations. He said Nationwide searches are currently underway to fill vacancies including deans of Engineering, Social and Behavioral Sciences, and Arts and Humanities, positions now held by "act- ing" personnel. His presentation was followed by a question and answer session. Issues such as granting credit to stu- dents who devote much time to extra curricular activi- ties were raised. Another issue put to Neal is Stony Brook's policy allowing teachers to be terminated for failing to fulfill publishing requirements. Throughout the session Neal jotted down students' Provost Homer Neal hosted last night's Outreach meeting and discussed students' academic concerns. /on Chbn questions which he said were new to him Computing Center Expands its Hours

" But Francis maintains the figures used by the Pub- lic Safety officers are not interpreted correctly. "I do not believe per capita that we have statistics close to what schools in urban environments have," he said. Only about one-third of campus police departments nationwide are armed, Francis said. And those are in urban areas. "I would characterize the campus as safe as a mod- ern person can be living in America, living in our world," Francis said. "It's as safe or safer than any- where else. Arguments used by Swan and Francis were contra- dictory. The vice-presdient said that grievences have been given proper attention over the years, and that the statements made publicly yesterday represent a minority view in Public Safety. He also said his depart- ment is considering improving the nightsticks officers presently carry and other; options are also being discussed, although he would not elaborate because discussions are not far enough along.

*F -I% Kidneys of Man -w ' - * - -.-L^*^ ^ :", t::: t^ Slain in Attack aiti:ffni Transplanted The kidneys of Richard Berger, the 19-year-old who was fatally shot March 20 in the middle of a shooting spree that allegedly began a few hours earlier at a party in the Stony Brook Union, have been successfully transplanted, according to IUni- versity Hospital spokesman James Rhatigan. Berger had been transported to University Hos- pital Friday, just before his parents' decision to remove him from the respirator keeping him alive. He had been at Smithtown General Hospital ever since the Saturday morning shooting, and had been listed as brain dead since March 21. One of the kidneys was donated to - a3-year-old man at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital in New York City; the other was implanted in a young boy in Los Angeles, Rhatigan said. Their names are not public. Rhatigan said Berger's parents "were delighted" about the successful transplants. "It was basically the thing they were clinging to."

Expanding the hours of the computing center so that students can have more time available to them to work on the computer terminals is something that should have been done a long time ago, but is noetheless a step in the right direction. Indeed, the popularity of Computer Science as a career has increased rapidly and Stony Brook has not been able to keep up with the pace. Currently under consideration by the SUSB Senate is limiting enrol- lment in that department and it has been reported that students have, in the past, had to drop or take an incom- plete in Computer Science courses because the center THE SENATE VOTES ON SENATORWUoIAMS was always packed, lines hours long could not be gOf f - i avoided.
