SUMMl!..rtY Or' M.~J C 1l .l:'.dE.:iiN l'Al'ILl~.:> at J.'aculty Assembly by Aichard .:)tolper, Delegate to the f aculty Assembiy
Opening rtemarks - John Sherwig, Vice-Chairman, .:>Ul~ Y .faculty .::ienate
Facu!ty ro1e in State University has developed to the point at which fAculty now have an obligation to participate significantly in the initiation, developnent o.nd implementation of the educational program at each college. ·~1e shall be observing now the extent to which each facul ty accapts that obligation.
Hatfield presented five major assumptions and upon these built his con- elUsion ; 1 • fhere is presently a dirth of information concerning for ei gn affairs. 2. !'here is presently & lack of public commitment or con viction concerning f oreign affairs. 3. . he people will be able to make a commitment - will make n commitment when they hav~ information they can be~ieve.
4. Students now in college want involvement - including in volvement in foreign poljcy.
5 • 3ince tho refusal of George Washington 1 s Congress to ac cept responsibility for •n Indian tre~ty early in the pre cedent-estab~ishing days of tho U.d., most of the conduct o1 foreign affairs has been by executive agreement and thus reduced the voice of the American Citizen in basic questions of peace and war. Senat or Hatfield concludes that the academic community can lead a broad base of citizen participation in the U.N.- an 11 international citizens' cppraisnl committee. 11 ihrough the schools and through cit izen perticipation, the academic co~unity can help providethe infor mation Hatfield believes lacking and thus move toward determining how much voice the American Citizen should hav~ in basic questions of peace ~.:. nd \ol&r. .i''inally, if the government cannot legislate morality, tne academic community must take leadership in establis~ing values in international affairs so that education can build morRlity. Cooperation Among Clrteges of State University: Barriers and Benefits - Ernest Boyer, Vice-Chancellor for University-wide .11c tivi teas
Intercampus cooperation is now wide but not understood, effective, or exper t. l hree basic questions should be posed: what are the barriers; what must be done to support intercampus cooperation; what are the re wards of int~ rc ampus cooperation?
Barriers are; physical, transportational, and philosophical concerns of power and prestige time to perfect arrangements interest - professors are generally not re warded for interinstitutional per form&nces Page 106
Hhat must be done to support intercampus cooperation: det ermin~tion of campus goals and arrangement of goals on a complexity scale so that goals may be compatible not on.1.y in aim but in complexity establishment of a management system capable of dealing with whatever level of complexity oi cooperation is involved ~ewards of cooperations; (this observer could not rind that any specific rewards Yere detaileaj Boyor stated that there is a~ready centrality in .:>UNY, but this makes for n 11 holding company" rather than a university. Loca.L campus.as slld\lld be autonomous - strong and vigorous - t o evoid dullness and loss of initiative.
Unable to interpret the statement, 11 1he University can tower over loc11l CG.mpuses and give them strength, '1 I report Vice Chance:.. :Lor Boyer's state ment that an attempt is being made to see Yhat intercooperation con make the University great and recommend - for my part - th'lt intercoopemtion be considered experimental until that question is answered.
·rhis delegate also attended sessions on International ~ervices end Con tracts - from which he concluded that SUHY is in a period of r el ati ve inactivity in contracts - and a session on Articulation and Int e rc~pu s Transfer led by Provost Harry Porter as follows:
1. Structure of SUNY involves basic policy of r eady transf ~r from community colleges to 11 upper-di vision" colleges.
2. l'he transfer should be for only 11qualified11 students.
). Implementation of this policy is informal - local units have autonomy in admissions - but the system is working Yell. 4· Problems include the following: n.) community college staff complain about excessive select ivity by four-year colleges; it must be r ecognized that both community and four-year colleges have extensive variations in standards;
b.) not all desired programs are available t o community COJ. l ege graduat es - there saems to be need tor more engineer ing programs and businass administration progrruns ; ther e is a growing tendency to defer professional specialization t o graduate years and raise undergraduate liboral-cultur~l (~tt specialized) r equirements; c.) SUNY policy is unclear- Provost Porter dis cussed the limited prob.Lem - under this heading - of what to do with a community college student who compl etes a t erminal ed ucation program and then changes his mind. Page 107
!'he consensus of the group was that nothing special should be done for that student (an opinion apparently held by community college representatives as well as by those from !our-year (sic) institutions.)
Academic Bal8nce (of University I~sources for Research, Teaching and Community .:::> ervice) - fred Harrington, President, University of Wisconsin.
Fecul. ty are important in the policy decisions or a University, but .fac ulty tend t.o miss rn&in issues - such as budget - and involve themselves in periphcrs1 issues.
Balance in t he nl Location of University resources is not as important as excelle nce, but faculty need to become aware of current trends and needs. i her u are thr.Jc g r .Ja t trends; the trend toward research, the enrollmant revol ution, And universtty activity in public servic~.
!he trend t oward research app~ars likely to continue into the fora seea.b}.o future a ·~. thou~h federal support will be limited by the costs of t he wc r in Vi et Nrua . desearch will continue to b~ the basi c avenue for academic tenuN and promoti or. and therefore the basic interest of faculty, but Harrington believes tha t teachers who are productive in research are better teach ers.
Despite the e nrollm ~ nt r evolution, support for instruction has lagged. r'he feder al government does not now provide much support for instruct ion nnd is not .Likely to do so. J.'he state, with much less resource, is obUged t o support instruction from resources increasingly strained by welfa re costs . .::>ome way must be devised to get monies tor inst ruct ion. (Harrin ~:: t o n call~d attention to a r ecent statement by SUNY Chan cellor Gould indica t ing the Chancellor's interest in publ ic ser vice proerams.)
In summa ry, Har.l'ington sees continu&tion of interest in research, in crease in inter est and support for continuing education programs of pub~ ic servi ce , and no r elief for the strain on instructional r esources brouGht about by the enrollment explosion.
Issues in International Education - 3enator Mark G. Hatfield (Oregon)
Hatfield posed the quustion, ''what cnn educational institutions do for the government in the 1ielcl of international relations?" He further directed tho question to 'What t he instituti ons could do for the govern ment in partj.cu.J.ar and what they could do f or and through all ci tizcns. As preface t o ~ i s r e m~rk3 . Hatfield said t hat he f eels there has been an alienation bet'Ween the intellectuals and the incumbent Democratic Party. He thinks tha t perhaps these intellectual s are now ready t o penetrate the dopublican Party. Page 108
