Group: The Group's mission near completion
Continued from page 1.
system, parents, faculty and admin¬
istration.
Newell's report on admission
standards puts great emphasis on
the Master Plan for Higher Educa¬
tion, released in 1975 and mandated
for schools to follow. Newell asks
for data on special admits, which
Fresno State constantly gives in ex¬
cess of the number allotted.
"All I am doing is what the Mas¬
ter Plan for Education says we
should. And we are not doing it,"
Newell said.
One change the Group recom¬
mended has taken place. At the
meeting with the provost, there was
a need expressed to have adminis¬
trators teach^
This semester, President John
Welty is teaching a one unit course,
and Vice-president and Provost
Alex Gonzalez is team teaching a
psychology class.
"Having administrator's teach
really does send a message to the
university that we are all teachers,"
Smith said.
After the reports are finished and
submitted, the Group does not have
a plan for where it will go. Smith
said the Group could possibly serve
as an advisory or resource commit¬
tee apart from the Academic Sen¬
ate.
"We'll continue to strive for our
own academic excellence in our
own classrooms," Smith said.
Group membership has not
climbed as much as Smith had
wished they would last semester.
He said that while he has been
able to meet people who have the
same concerns he does, there is still
a problem with the faculty on cam¬
pus not wanting to change anything.
"I've also discovered there is a
lot of apathy," Smith said.
After a Group meeting with
Gonzalez that gained the unofficial
committee some recognition, the
group was lambasted by reports of
anti-student attitudes and racist
leanings.
One rumor was that two mem¬
bers of the Group exchanged a
'Seig Heil' salute before the meet¬
ing with Gonzalez.
Psychology, professor and Group
member Beth Newell said she re¬
ceived numerous threats and prank
phone calls after her report on Ad¬
mission policies was presented at
the meeting with the Provost.
She said she was accused of be¬
ing antagonistic towards students.
"Dirty rumors and dirty tricks,"
Newell said to describe the things
said about the Group late last se¬
mester.
