The only answer provided by the university is that members of the Foundation and the administration will now advise the presi dent on fund-raising matters. This is a large change for the university to undertake considering that Joms will retire in 1998. The search for Joms' replacement will halt the fund-raising process, because it appears the process will be headed up by the president. Changing and redefining job descriptions will only lead to more confusion during a transition period, compounded with the hitirtg of a new provost and vice president for academic affairs. Large changes in university policy, like fund-rais ing, should be put on hold until Eastern's chief administrators are more stable. However, the president could alleviate the problem by showing a little candor, and the Faculty Senate is presenting him with a chance.
