Just about any student on campus knows who Professor Patricia O'Hara is, and that she is the vice-president of Student Affairs. But ask most students who the provost of the university is, and they will give you a blank stare. Many will not know what a provost even does. The Provost Office, though it is veiled behind the murals of Columbus on the second floor ofthe Main Building, has a larger effect on most students' lives than high-visibility offices like Student Mfairs. The head of academic affairs of the uriiversity, the Provost Office makes decisions on curriculum and the hiring of Witlwutthe faculty, as well as running the International Studies Program. This week's cover story, written by Managing Editor MarkJ. Mitchell, focuses on the recognition it changes that have been occurring in the Provost Office in the past months. Four out of the five positions in the Provost Office have been or will be vacated. Provost Timothy desires, Gays O'Meara and Associate Provost Isabel Charles will retire; Associate Provost Roger Schmitz resigned to return to the classroom to teach. Associate Provost Oliver Williams and at C.S.C., resigned, apparently under pressure from the administration. Complicating the situation even further was the appointment of Father Timothy Scully C.S.C., to the e Notre Dame and position of associate provost and vice-president of the university. Although no one Saint Mary's is questions Scully's criteria to serve as associate provost, the manner by which he was appointed vice-president has come under scrutiny from the Faculty Senate.
