CUTS
Continued from page 1
"If we operated the same as last year, we
would not be able to meet the governor's
directive, so we had to cut back and not be so
generous because it is part of the process of
catching up," Gigliotti said.
Dr. Michael Biechler. assistant vice
t for academic affairs and academic
personnel, said when budget cutj have to be
absorbed, it is difficult not to have people
effected. He said only part-time faculty and
teaching assistants were effected.
Biechler said the class cuts were based on
enrollment and student demand and that when
it comes to faculty positions the university
protects. tenured faculty first, followed by
probationary faculty (those who are working
toward tenure), full-time temporary faculty and
finally    part-time    faculty    and    teaching
Part-time faculty contracts are always
contingent upon enrollment and the budget.
Biechler said. He said a faculty member is
aware of the uncertainty from the beginning.
This contingency is not present in the
contracts of full-time faculty.
Biechler said because of the budget cuts
some part-time faculty were not offered
contracts when they anticipated them and some
who had year-long contracts had their unit
loads reduced to save some positions.
"The mission of the university is to provide
education for the students and when we have to
absorb budget cuts we try to minimize the
effect to education," Biechler said.  "Some
classes were cut solely because of low
enrollment, but some were cut because of the
position limit and some students were
inconvenienced and some hurt, but it was
unavoidable for some students, faculty, and
classes not be effected'1
"Why should anyone care how many
positions we use as long as we stay within our
budget and get the job done," Biechler asked.

Cancelled classes due to budget cuts caused many students to fill the gaps
in their scedules with alternate classes. Hardest hit was the English
Department which conceited 36 classes.

"It is not reasonable for a society like ours
not to allocate educational funds to meet the
demands of students," he said.
Departments in the School of Arts and
Humanities were some of the hardest hit
because they had a more difficult time
matching existing resources with student
demand, Biechler said. It was predictable that
departments such as English, math, theatre
arts, speech arts, and radio-tv would be more
seriously affected because, they have large
numbers of part-time faculty to teach the lower
division courses that are offered with more
sections, according to Biechler.
The English Department^lone had to cut
36 classes, including 14 English 1 sections
and three upper division writing courses. Dr.
Roger Chittick, chairman of the English
Department, said about half of the courses
would have been cut because of low
enrollment, but said because of the staff cuts
he lost the equivalent to three-and-one-half full-
time positions. He said he fears losing more
positions in the future if enrollment figures
drop. Chittick said 80 students were not able
to be placed in alternate courses.
NO IDEA

I received what seemed like every IS minutes
from well-meaning instructors, parents, and-
the worst offenders of all-parents' friends,
"What? Are, you STTLL in school?"."Haven't
you graduated YET?", "Are you a sophomore
AGAIN?"
Now that winter session is over and done
with (and I've learned- more about evolution
than I ever really wanted to know), I can
honestly say that going to school over the
break dojss have its good points. Not only
was the courseload lighter than during a
regular semester, the shortened term removed
most of my opportunities to procrastinaie-
something I tend to do during the regular
semestef. (With only three weeks of
instruction during winter. I could only put off
studying for two-and-a-half weeks.)
But the best thing about attending winter
session, other than the noteworthy fact that
parking was FREE and available CLOSE to
my classes, was that it finally pushed me into
the ranks of Juniordom. Now, with four years
of school behind me, I only have two more to
go-
