A-Senate delays

LIFE Academic Editor
Academic Senate staged round two of
the psychology doctorate degree debate
Monday and closed the meeting with a decision to postpone action on the proposed
degree  until  the  next Senate meeting.
Two weeks ago the Senate decided to
delay action on the proposal until the
administration could give a statement
defining the financial impact of the program if it was implemented.
At Monday's meeting Provost Charles
Ping explained there is a need for such
a program but after enumerating the
individual expenses needed for the program, he said the degree, if approved,
could not be implemented before 1974
because of the University's limited resources.

Estate's umite'«lrfe'soU#0e$.,*'':"''/':
One senator questioned whether there
would be such a need for such a program at the time when the University
could finally implement it. RobertLovin-
ger, assistant professor of psychology,
answered saying the need rate for clinical
psychologists has been rapid in the past
and  the  demand now for thpse people
surpasses .the actual-number available.
Another senator suggested that Senate
approve the new program though it would
not go into effect immediately--and con-,
tinue to explore it before it would be
implemented.     Henry Fulton, assistant
professor-p£ English>-agreed-sa-ying.it is
impossible to begin the program because
of lack of money and the practical con
cern would be .to submit the program.
Also questioned was the space problem
involved with initiation of the new degree.
Ping said there would be room in Sloan.
Hall, however, when the new Health Service building is finished.
In other action, President William B.
Boyd also discussed money matters with
the Senate but only those relating to the
entire University and educational system^
Speaking on the educational money distribution, Boyd said, "Before the University was experiencing problems because
of the sharp growth rate and it has been
able to build around this problem.   But
now," he said, "the University is feeling
adverse  effects because of the state's
limited resources."
He continued, ' 'We can't be like dreamers now, the planning must be realistic."
He added the question concerns whether or
not education should take priority over
other matters such as unemployment and
welfare.
Boyd also appealed to senators to make
recommendations concerning the University's policy on tenure. He said tenure
is necessary to protect academic freedom and, even though it is not an adequate protection, it is valuable to academic freedom. He also explained that
tenure does not protect professors, from
their colleagues.
Even though an instructor has tenure at
the University, his colleagues could still
undermine him by placing him on the least
important committees and least desir-
- able teaching assignments,

to be expected, as certainly state officials are watching to keep one school

wonders, however, why more pertinent,

was not included by the 'Committee for

group member said.

Joyce Pillotte of the Philosophy Department, president of the CMU Faculty

pleased to see these lists released. We've
sent people down to Lansing in the past
without success to try to get this information, which is supposed to be public
