AU recruiting
draws criticism By Lee McBride
Assistant News Editor
The Southern Association of Col­leges
and Schools (SACS) has critic­ized
Auburn University for not
recruiting enough minority faculty
and students.
In a confidential preliminary
report to University officials, the
nine member team which visited
Auburn April 24-27, said Auburn
was lacking in minority students
and faculty in many schools at the
University.
Herb White, director of University
Relations, said the SACS report was
only preliminary and a "rough indi­cation
of what they (the team) have
seen."
White said "It's not in the Univer­sity's
best interest to go into the
document now."
Though White refused to discuss
what is in the report, he did admit
that "we don't have enough quali­fied
black faculty here, but we've
always known that."
"Until a final report comes out, I
can't say anything," he said. The
final SACS report is expected some­time
this summer.
Meanwhile, State Rep. Alvin
Homes, of Montgomery, introduced

MOVING ON — Students travel from class to class getting in their
final study hours before classes end. With finals only a week away
students will need to spend more time with the books gearing up for
the crucial exams. Going to class will soon become more frequent
for those putting off the studies until the last minute.

Legislative research conference "a success w
By Jeff Charnock
Assistant News. Editor
Approximately 60 state legisla­tors
came to Auburn last Wednes­day
for a Legislative Research Con­ference
hosted by the University's
Research Advisory Council.
The legislators were treated to a
slide show ana-tour of many ex­h
i b i t s depicting the various
research programs that Auburn
faculty and scientist are involved in.
The two day conference was
designed to show the legislators just
how extensive and comprehensive
Auburn's research programs are
according to Dr. Paul Parks,
Auburn's Vice President of
Research.
Parks added that the conference
also emphasized the importance of
the University's research to the
state's economic climate.
The four major areas of research
highlighted at the conference were
the areas of microelectronic and
computer-assisted design and
manufacturing research; AU's tor-satron,
which is used in the physics
department for fusion research;
physiology, nutrition and gains in
energy conservation; and the ongo­ing
research projects in the School
of Veterinary Medicine and the
areas of large and small animal
surgery.
In addition to inviting the legisla­ture,
the Advisory council invited the
Governor and his staff and cabinet
officers. Although the governor did
not attend, the lieutenant governor]
was present.
Lt. Gov. Bill Baxley said, "I hon­estly
and sincerely believe that
there's no hope for growth or devel­opment
or improvement in the qual­ity
of life if we don't really take care
to see that our institutions of higher
learning lead the way for that
growth."
Baxley also cited that the main
reasons for Alabama's falling
behind in the area of education and
research started about eight or 10
years ago "when there was a move
underway to cut back so drastical':,
in the the funding of our two state
universities — Alabama and
Auburn."
He added that we have gotten our­selves
into a situation where there is
almost no district without some
form of higher eductional institu­tion
for that district's representa­tives
or senators to worry about.

Auburn University Interim Pre­sident
Wilford S. Bailey established
a special committee to review the
University's policies concerning off-campus
parties because of conflict­ing
reports surrounding the activi­ties
of AU studens in Panama City
two weeks ago.
Bailey announced the formation
of the committee last Friday, and its
first meeting was held yesterday.
The announcement came a week
after an Auburn student, Michael
Todd Jenkins, 18, of Gadsden
drowned while attending beach par­ties
in Panama City along with 5000
other Auburn students.
Panama City police said students
interfered with their efforts to help
Jenkins, and students stole an
ambulance before running into
another car.
The committee, which will be
made up of two administrators and
three students, will concentrate on
looking into the principle circum­stance
surrounding the events in
Florida to try to find a way to exert
more positive influence on off-campus
activities, said Peter Hend­erson,
assistant to the president and
member of the panel.
"The public image of the Univer­sity
has been badly darkened by
events which have been reported,"
Henderson said, "We're going to
stay away from assessing blame
and instead look at the way students
organize themselves.

and we can't stand by and allow

Dean of students resigns,
Bailey names replacement
Auburn University Interim Pres­ident
Wilford S. Bailey announced
this week that he has accepted the
resignation of Dr. Harold Grant as
Dean of Students and is appointing
Dr. Pat Barnes, who has been acting
in that capacity while Grant was on
leave, to the position.
Grant, who served Auburn for 18
years in various capacities, includ­ing
director of Student Development
Services, special assistant to the
president and professor of counselor
education, and Dean of Students,,
submitted his resignation to Bailey
saying that it is his desire to remain
with the work he is presently doing.
Grant applied for a year of profes­sional
leave without pay beginning
Jan. 1, 1982, to serve as director of
lay volunteer missions for Trinity
Missions based in Russell County
and to continue research in his pro­fessional
field. He was given an
additional six months of leave until
June, 1983. His resignation will be
effective at that time.
"We are appreciative of the many
contributions Dr. Grant made to
Auburn University during his years
of service. He has given valuable
leadership in several areas affecting
the quality of student life on cam­pus.
We wish him every success as
he continues his worthwhile and
productive career." Bailey said.

By Lynne Hopkins
News Editor
The issue of starting fall quarter
early is one that has been met with
positive reactions from students
over the years and this reaction was
reaffirmed by a recent Plainsman
phone poll.
The Plainsman conducted a
phone poll this week, randomly
selecting phone numbers from the
Auburn University Student Tele­phone
Directory and questioning
200 students.
Students have voted twice before
on the proposed change, once in
November of 1980 when students
voted 92 percent in favor of the
change and again on April's spring

election ballot which showed 82 per­cent
of the students asking for an
early fall quarter. The students
polled in the Plainsman survey
showed 81 percent requesting the
change in the University calendar.
Those students questioned in the
survey said that the main advan­tage
for starting the school year ear­lier
would be not having to return to
Auburn after the Thanksgiving
holidays and this would especially
benefit those students who live
farther away.
Other reasons given in support of
the change included not having to
come back to school for exams,
being able to hold a Christmas job
longer during the break and being in
school earlier and able to attend
football games that are played
before classes start.
Twenty-one percent of the stu­dents
polled said they would not be
in favor of such a change mainly
because there would not be enough
of a break between summer and fall
quarters and it would shorten the
time students have to hold a job dur­ing
the summer.

A U lacks funds for adding handicap equipment
By Monique VanLandingham
Managing Editor
It would take $8 million to com­pletely
equip the Auburn Univer­sity
campus for handicapped stu­dents,
according to a 1978
self-study.
Five years before the study, the
Rehabilitation Act had mandated
that to receive federal funds, all
buildings and programs must be
accessible to the handicapped, but
"most universities, including
Auburn, have really dragged their
feet," in complying with the law
because of a lack of funds, says
Bob Couch, head of special educa­tion
and rehabilitation.
Couch says the government
doesn't monitor the University's
facilities too closley "because it is
hard to mandate money that isn't
there." However, he adds that
according to the law the govern­ment
could withhold funds from
any program which doesn't meet
the set standards.
Currently, he says, the law
serves as a redress for offended
persons. Ideally an individual
could sue the University but he
would bear the court costs.
For this reason, Couch says
there must be a committment by
Administrative officials, to make
Auburn more accessible to handi­capped
students. Lack of money,
he says, is not the only drawback.
There must be a real and constant
awareness that there is a need to
accomodate handicapped stu­dents,
he says.
The library is one of the most
obivioue trouble spots for handi­capped
persons, says Couch. There
is only one entrance to the building
on the first floor and it is kept
locked to prevent theft. Students
unable to climb steps are forced to
call and make an appointment to
have the door opened they want to
enter the library. "These students
are people just like us and deserve
a chance for an education just like
us," Couch says.
John Burgess, coordinator of
UPC and advisor to the handi­capped,
says that though there are
no classes to help students adjust
at Auburn, they can get help indi­vidually
through his office.
Interpreters for the blind are
available as well as readers for the
blind. The rehabilitation and spe­cial
education department works
in an advocacy role, Couch says.
Student clubs and sororities also
offer volunteers to aid the handi­capped.
"People usually have the
stereotype image of people in
wheelchairs, " Couch says, adding

that, on the contrary, the majority
of Auburn's handicapped students
have "invisible disabilities," such
as organ disorders, or impaired
senses, Couch said.
About 6% of Auburn's student
body is handicapped, and the
number seems to be increasing
Burgess said. Couch agreed, say­ing
"word may be out that the
campus is becoming more
accessible."
The Job market for the handi­capped
is also expanding slowly.
Some companies specifically
request to interview handicapped
individuals, Burgess said. "There
has been progress in the last
decade or so in accepting them,
Couch says.
The ability to get a job depends a
great deal on the individual, "They
can be found doing just about
everything."
"One of the best things students
can do if thev see a person who has
a disability," Couch says, "is to get
to know him as an individual."
Couch says that though an atti­tude
of acceptance is growing, "the
typical college student probably
has only a vague awareness."
or possibly implementing a semes­ter
system.
Only 21 percent of those polled
said they would be in favor of the
semester system. Students said the
main disadvantage of the semester
would be not being able to take as
many classes or change professors
as often.
Those in favor of the semester sys­tem
said they would like it because
most universities use it and classes
would not be as rushed.
Starting fall quarter ten days to
two weeks earlier is currently being
researched by the Student Welfare
Committee and they have said the
reason such a change has not be
instituted is because:
1) The faculty would be idle during
the Christmas break.
2) Faculty's pay could not be justi­fied
for the month of December.
3) It might cost the University
additional money to open earlier in
the summer because of air condi­tioning
costs.
4) Student financial aid might be
affected.
Because of the upcoming change
in administration, the faculty
members are looking into a calendar
change because it would be easier to
implement at this time.
Poll results were compiled by
Missy Harris, Susan Hurst, Kel-ley
Glover and Bryan Crowson.

News brief
INTERNATIONAL
U.S. SOVIET TIES WEAKEN
WASHINGTON - Ties be­tween
the Soviet Union and the
U.S. are weakening and the ten­sion
between the two nations is
rising, government specialists
say. Relations began worsening
under the Carter Administration
and have continued to weaken at
a quicker pace under Reagan's
Administration.
"Mutual suspicions are very
high," said an unofficial Presi­dential
adviser. "Poor communi­cations,
tension, dismantling of
cooperative activities, and sharp
rhetoric," are hindering improve­ments,
said a former Soviet
affairs specialist.
MILITARY BASES
ATHENS - The future of Amer­ican
military bases in Greece was
the topic of discussion in talks
resumed between Greece and
America this week. Greece had
charged that the United States
and Turkish aircraft entered
Greek airspace without permis­sion
last Friday. The incident
raised a serious political issue,
said Prime Minister Andreas
Papandreou, because Greece and
Turkey are in dispute over terri­torial
rights and the control of
airspace in the Aegean.
PEOPLE TESTED
SAN FRANCISCO - Tests were
available for people exposed to
toxic chemicals from an explo­sion
of an underground trans­former.
The test were expected to
turn .out negative but if the tests
results were positive no medical
treatment for exposure to the
chemicals was known.
EMBASSY OFFICIALS
GEORGETOWN, GUYANA -
Two United States Embassy
Officials were ordered out of
Guyana for interfering in the
country's domestic affairs. The
charges made against the two
unidentified diplomats were
denied by an American Embassy
spokesman. The Guyan Govern­ment
linked the diplomats with a
strike of 3,000 workers in a baux­ite
town south of Georgetown.
NATIONAL
DEATHS CAUSED
TEXAS - Thirty-four people
were killed and 11,000 left home­less
as a result of tornadoes and
floods last week. Rivers in Texas
and Mississippi rose 15 inches
forcing people to abandon their
homes. Twisters and hailstorms
hit northern Texas late Sunday
pushing the death toll up to 34.
Eleven people had been killed
by tornadoes in southeastern
Texas late last week. Rivers and
lakes reached record levels and
the Pearl River at Jackson, Miss,
reached the second highest mark
in history, 10 and a half feet
above flood stage.
SENIORS FAIL TEST
SARASOTA, FLA. - Eight
Sarasota seniors who failed a
functional literacy test in Florida
will not receive their diplomas.
High schoolers first take the test
in the 10th grade, are placed in
remedial classes if they do not
pass, but have the opportunity to
take the test again.
Of the 1,665 seniors across the
state who failed the test, most of
them don't even know their
results yet. With graduation only
two and three weeks away, ner­vous
students await the results.
Legislators-
He added, however, that "there
comes a point in time, and I think
we've reached that point, when we
as legislators and as public officials
have got to look beyond just looking
after our porkbarrels (our districts)
and start looking after the future of
our children and the future of our
state, and start spending these edu­cation
dollars wisely."
He added that some legislators
showed up for the conference, indi­cating
that they seemed interested
in what the exhibitors had to
present.
Committee
Parks said that he felt the confer­ence
was successful, citing that
about 40 of the legislators stayed for
the second day of the conference.
Steve French, assistant director of
legislative relations for the SGA,
said he viewed the event as success­ful.
He added that he thought hav­ing
the student lobby there helped
emphasize the importance of
increased research funding for
Auburn.
French said, "Anytime you get
legislators up here you're successful.
Thursday was important because
that was the day they toured some of
the sites where research is taking
place."
French also commented that leg­islators
react favorably when they
know some of their constituents
(students) are present." It kind of
puts them between a rock and a hard
place if they don't show up when
they know a student from their dis­trict
will be there." French said.
The coordinators matched stu­dents
with legislators from their dis­continued
from A-l
trict and then asked the students to
escort them around the conference
on Wednesday afternoon.
French said the atmosphere
changes when there are students
there. The legislators get to talk
about other things besides just
"politics." It makes for a more
enjoyable time.
The $10,000 conference was
funded by the Advisory Council,
which is composed of 30 leaders in
industry, business and professions
from across the country.
incidents to be reported as they were
without showing the students that
we are concerned," he said.
Bailey said the committee is
designed to clarify the incidents
which took place and to insure that
such actions are avoided in the
future.
"We don't deserve the bad public­ity
that caused alumni and friends
to question and criticize our
actions," Bailey said. "We have to
accept the responsibility of actions
we take knowing that what we do
will reflect on our family, friends
and the University.
SGA President David Herrick
said the purpose of the committee is
not to go back and research the
events which took place, but rather
continued from A-l
see how they can be handled in the
future.
Members of the committee include
Peter Henderson, assistant to the

Barnes, dean of students, David
Herrick, SGA president, Tom Batt,

Council and Amy Lummis, presi­dent

Asbestos change
may begin fall
By Tina Perry
Plainsman Staffwriter
Procedures to remove asbestos
from some of the University's build­ings
may begin fall quarter, accord­ing
to Dr. Paul F. Parks, vice presi­dent
of research.
Removal of the suspected cancer-causing
agent would begin if cur­rent
tests indicate it is a hazard to
students and faculty, he said.
Harmon Engineering and Test­ing,
a local firm hired to determine if
and where asbestos could be found
on campus, has completed phase
one of their survey and is well "into
phase two, Parks said.
In phase one, the company con­ducted
a visual inspection of all
buildings to look for "anything that
could potentially be asbestos," he
said.
Of the 398 buildings Harmon
inspected, 246 of them did not con­tain
suspect material. Of the 152
buildings determined to require
further testing, 67 had insulation
material containing asbestos only
around pipes and boilers. The
remaining 85 contained suspect
material in additional places, he
said. The names of these buildings
will not be released at this time,
Parks said.
During phase one, completed
April 15, Harmon developed a pro­gress
guide for AU detailing steps to
be taken in phase two, Parks said. In
the survey's second phase, now in
progress, samples of the suspect
material were taken from the build­ings
in question and will be ana­lyzed
to determine if they contain
asbestos.
Of the 1,785 samples taken, 600
have been analyzed, he said.
"It will probably be around the
first of September before we will
have all this finished up," Parks
said, in reference to the sampling.
In addition to analyzing samples,
Harmon will present AU with a
report detailing the amount of
asbestos present in each sample,
how "friable" or easily broken loose
the material is in a specific area,
how accessible the material is to the
public and whether the material is
in contact with a direct air stream,
Parks said.
The report prepared by Harmon
will be helpful in setting priorities
for dealing with potential asbestos-related
problems, Parks said, and
will be presented to the University's
president and Board of Trustees if
findings indicate cleanup proce­dures
are needed.

FRIENDLY NEIGHBORS - Squirrels
provide fun and amusement for Auburn
students as the amazing little creatures
run around campus creating a well
deserved break from a students busy
day. This squirrel is enjoying his day

leaving for the summer, the
squirrel will be able to take a break
from further human interaction.
The presence of squirrels around
Auburn is one that has grown into a
well-loved traditon around the campus.
Students wish they could become as
happy and care free as the fuzzy crea­tures
but with finals approaching, stu­dents
need to buckle down and concen­trate

New Chi Phi Chapter earns success in first year
By John M. Rogers
Plainsman Staffwriter
The oldest social fraternity in
existence, Chi Phi, established its
Mu Delta chapter on the Auburn
University campus on April 17:
1982.
The national chartering took pla
ceon March 5 giving the fraternity
46 chapters on college campuses
nationwide.
The Chi Phi Fraternity was
founded on December 24, 1824, at
the College of New Jersey, now
known as Princeton University.
The Mu Delta chapter has found
housing, established a Little Sister
program and has grown to a size ol
48 brothers and pledges within the
past year.
The present chapter was formed
from the old Mu Delta chapter
which was present on Auburn's
campus from 1967 to 1979.
In the first year of its recharter-ing,
Chi Phi Fraternity won the
annual campus-wide spirit competi­tion
in the fraternity division.
The SGA-sponsored contest
awards the fraternity that works the
hardest through the year on spirit-related

Barriers to the handicapped
Committee formed to investigate, offer solutions
By Melissa Shubert
Features Editor
A newly-formed ad hoc committee
composed of 11 faculty members,
administrative personnel and stu­dents
will work toward campus
awareness and physical improve­ments
for handicapped students on
the Auburn campus, said Peter
Henderson, chairman of the
committee.
The committee, formed to look
into, address and make recommen­dations
for increasing accessability
of handicapped students to the Uni­versity,
should begin to work in
about one month.
Henderson, administrative
assistant to the president, said a
similar committee was formed in
1978 to investigate and evaluate
Auburn's approach to access for
handicapped. That committee com­posed
a self-evaluation and initiated
several improvements. However, it
ceased to exist after its findings
were published.
This committee, he said, will
"take another look" into the issue.
"This issue has been raised that the
University just h a s n ' t done
enough," he said. "Apparently there
is enough of a problem where handi­capped
people have complained to
the extent that this committee
needed to be reformed."
The committee has two main
goals: to make physical improve­ments
on campus for handicapped
students and to increase campus
awareness of the number of handi­capped
people at Auburn
"Money is the barrier with physi­cal
improvements," Henderson
said. "Right now, I don't know if
money like that is available." In
1978, when the other committee was
formed, money was no problem, he
said. Now, however, finances are
tighter. Having central administra­tion
people on the committee will
help channel funding for such
improvements, he said.
"We'll find the money some­where,"
he said. "I am sure of this; I
will have an answer of where the
money will or will not come from."
But Tom Tillman, campus archi­tect,
said there is no indication of
money coming in the future. "My job
here is not involved in securing
funds," he said. "Mine is doing
something with the funds when
they give them to me."
The committee will help increase
campus awareness of the situation,
he said, adding there may be some
people on the committee who are
aware of funding services.
The University must comply with
standard building codes set forth by
the federal government and the
state. These codes outline require­ments
for barrier-free access to
existing and new buildings.
These requirements cover build­ing
sites, exteriors and interiors,'
including curb cuts, widths of side­walks,
handrails and bathrooms.
"This issue really came to light in
about 1977 when the federal
government really began to
emphasize compliance with section
504 of the Rehabilitation Act of
1973," he said. This required agen­cies
receiving federal funds to
comply with section 504 or risk los­ing
their funding.
Definite milestones had to be met
for compliance with the act and
Auburn's first one was to complete
the self-study in 1978, listing all
buildings not complying with the
code. *-„
Cost estimates, and the listing of
»priorities for buildings within dead­line
priorities are the next step.
Buildings students often use were
placed high on the list, with low
priority buildings being delayed
until later.
However, the University is still
working on those lists. "You don't
just pick one out and go with it," he
said of the yearly deadlines. The

Quality vs. quantity
Auburn has been recently criticized
for not having enough blacks on the
faculty. The Southern Association of
Colleges and Schools said in a prelimi­nary
report t h a t Auburn was lacking
in minority students and faculty
members in many schools at the Uni­versity.
Immediately, steps were taken
by State Representative Alvin Holmes
to rectify the problem; however, the
House failed to pass his resolution cal­ling
for the University to hire more
black professors.
There could be many reasons for
Auburn's deficiency in black profes­sors.
Perhaps not many qualified
blacks are applying for tbe jobs, and
therefore the open positions are going
to more qualified applicants. Also, it
could be recognized that Auburn's
social life for blacks is not as attractive
as at other schools.
Whatever the reason, something
must be done to rectify this problem.
However, in trying to solve it, educa­tion
must not be sacrificed to fill some
racial quota. The most qualified person
for the job should be chosen regardless
of race. One must remember that the
popular solution to such inequalities in
the past has been to set up guidelines
and quotas t h a t had to be filled. This
issue is currently before the Supreme
Court, and the outcome from this con­servative
bench is likely to be a remo­val
of unfair quotas and a return to the
lassiez-faire method of hiring the most
qualified.
This is the action Auburn should
take. By hiring the most qualified, edu­cation
will excell and justice prevail for
the good of t h e University. Something
must be done and for starters, the Uni­versity
could search for and encourage
qualified blacks to seek the positions
available.
Move fall back
The students have said it before and
they'll say it again.
The request to begin fall quarter a
week to ten days earlier is one t h a t has
been -met with overwhelming support
for several years.
In November of 1980, students voted
by 92 percent in favor of seeing the
schedule change. In the spring election
ballot this year, we once again sup­ported
this change by 82 percent. This
week the Plainsman conducted a poll,
that resulted again in favor of this
change.
Starting fall quarter early will allow
those students who live far away from
home to spend the Thanksgiving holi­days
with their familes and will also
allow us more time to find a job over the
Christmas break.
In the past, the administration and
the facultv have not had the incentive
to support such a change because it
would be hard to justify the faculty's
pay for the month of December and
some financial aid programs may be
affected.
The implementation of the semester
system is another alternative that is
being discussed by the faculty. Many
of the students polled felt t h a t they did
not have enough information about
semesters to make a valid judgment
on the system.
With the search for a new president
now well under way, this proves to be
an excellent time to make any needed
changes in the University's calendar.
Now that we have the opportunity,
let's take the initiative and see that
something is done.
The last farewell
It has been said that goodbye is the
hardest word in the English language
to say and for journalists, it is some­times
the hardest to write. This is one
of those times.
First of all, the staff is losing John
Reed, a born and bred Glomerata pho­tographer
who has gotten us out of
many a j am this year. His talent and
his feature photographs will be sorely
missed. John has accepted a job with
F i r s t A l a b a m a B a n c s h a r e s in
Montgomery.
Lee McBride, an assistant news edi­tor,
is graduating and will soon hit the
job market. It will be hard to replace
"God's own drunk," but we wish her the
best of luck anyway.
Mark Stevenson, sports editor, is
leaving the staff to devote his energies
to graduate school and the Auburn
presidential search committee. How
will the paper survive without any­more
definition and "letters to Mark"
columns?
Kaye Dickie, our vastly underrated
Research Editor, is graduating and
will also be looking for a job in the
great big world of professional
journalism.
Chris Karabinos, our retiring Busi­ness
Manager, will stay in Auburn
until winter. Chris has sold many ads
and in so doing taught all of our section
editors the true meaning of the word
"filler."
Keith Ayers, our former news editor,
has accepted a job with the Atlanta
bureau of the Associated Press. We
wish him the best of luck and know his
work will reflect well upon Auburn.
Karen Kirkpatrick, our Technical
editor, will attend Mercer Law School
starting this fall, following an intern­ship
at the Dalton Daily Citizen News
this summer. Karen at times has
served as associate editor, managing
editor and for one week, as editor.
Monique VanLandingham, recently
named as senior journalism student of
the year by ODK, will take her perfect
little self to Birmingham this summer
to intern for the Birmingham News.
After that, she'll be searching for a job
as a regular staffmember somewhere.
And don't despair Auburn. Although
he will no longer be editor of the
Plainsman, Tim Dorsey will remain in
town long enough to get his degree in
Transportation. He h a s given our staff
an extremely tough act to follow as he
has put out one of t he finest volumes of
The Plainsman in recent memory.
We will miss you all.
Policy The Plainsman welcomes letters to
the editor. All letters should be typed
and double-spaced. Authors will be
required to show identification upon
submission. Letters will be signed
except under special circumstances.

A Dorsey farewell
There are many ways to write farewell
columns.
One way is to write confessions. See my
face there in that little window? Actually
I'm back here naked. I just have on a fake
collar. Now you know.
Another way to write farewells is to talk
about stuff you didn't use in your other
columns. There are a bunch of jokes I
haven't used because they were in bad
taBte. Last week, for instance, I was going
to say, "Personally I think premarital sex
is alright. With someone else it's
unbelievable."
It's a cheap laugh, and I'm proud I didn't
print it.
There was also this other joke. It's an old
one, but a girl set me up for it so well the
other day, I couldn't let it pass. She said,
"My toes curl when I have sex."
"Maybe you forgot to take off your pan­tyhose,"
I replied.
Some farewell columns paint a pastoral
composite of Auburn memories:
Auburn is permanently at sunset. Sam-ford
Tower is ringing. There is a torrential
rainstorm as students chase runaway
umbrellas. Toomer's corner is being rolled.
The space shuttle flies over the stadium
while Auburn plays Georgia. Beauty
queens and campaign pamphlets litter the
concourse. The blood drive is in effect, and
Wire Road remains narrow.
Some writers say goodbye to their friends
in farewell columns. Instead, I'd like to say
goodbye to all those who were almost my
friends. During four years at Auburn, there
are quite a few people we see constantly,
but we've never met them. We don't know
. their names. We've never had class with
them. Nonetheless, we recognize them, and
we know they recognize us. We're not sure
how to react to each other on the street.
Usually we give a kind of half-nod, which
can be interpreted as a greeting or merely a
bad twitch.
I figure each of us knows about thirty
people like this. So to you thirty that I was
almost friends with, take care. You know
who you are.
Some corny farewell columns predict the
future.
Dateline: Fiji Islands-The controversial
U.S. ambassador to the Fijis, Hanly Fun-derburk,
has been missing for five days
now.
The international incident began a week
ago when the islanders lost confidence in
the ambassador and demanded his resig­nation.
When Funderburk refused, the
natives stormed the American embassy
from a fleet of outrigger canoes.
In a valiant, Doc Holiday display, Fun­derburk
marched alone into the compound
with a 12-guage riot gun, and with a battle
cry of "Remember the Vital Balance,"
began blasting the natives with rock salt.
At about this time, Dan Holsenbeck,
Director of Island Relations, shoved Fun­derburk
into an armored microbus, and the
two charged into the heart of the mob.
Neither has been heard from since.
Some sappy farewell columns try to
explain why Auburn is such a warm,
friendly place. I find this warmth repres­ented
in one of the more amusing pheno-menons
on campus-the girls that go
around hugging everything in sight: guys,
other girls, dogs, trees. The list is endless. I
joke about this because I don't want to get
sappy, but keep it up.
Many columnists leave advice and tell
the lessons they've learned in their farewell
columns. Here's mine:
Horse-riding accidents are a lie.
Don't mess with tough guys. You can tell,
a guy is probably pretty tough if his girl­friend
is deformed.
If you want immediate attention, stick
your tongue in a stranger's ear.
Do not put uncapped Flair pens in your
shirt pocket.
Born-again Christians are the same as
regular Christians, except for an extra spir­itual
bellybutton.
Only pseudo-intellectuals use the word
"pseudo-intellectual."
You can't change the world, but you can
keep your shorts clean.
Chad is the only nation ever named after
someone's nephew.
The meek will inherit the earth only if
their parents were aggressive bastards.
Times change. There are now Christian
football fans in Detroit that fill a coliseum
to cheer for the Lions to devour the Saints.
As you can see, I haven't quite decided
what type of farewell column to write. I
guess I'll just say "It's been fun."
Learn from my mistakes
Well! this is it! My last quarter at Auburn
has finally dwindled down to a few days of
blissful apathy. I know there will be great
sighs of relief and songs of joy echoing
across campus when I head south down
College Street on my way to meet Destiny.
It wasn't so bad when my instructors
kept asking how long I still had here, even
though I was only a sophomore. I thought it
was only natural for them to be a bit eager,
but I began to get suspicious when I kept
getting the same kind of interrogation from
my best friends, "When are you going to
finish up?" "Aren't you graduating soon?"
and the ultimate "Oh, what a surprise to
see you here, I thought you had graduated."
I knew the situation was deteriorating
rapidly when I walked into the Plainsman
office last week and editor-elect Alec Har­vey
eyed me coldly from a distance. Finally
"What are you doing here?" he asked
accusingly.
I suppose that's what they call wearing
out your welcome. My stint at Auburn
really hasn't been abnormally long, but
sometimes I feel like I was the town's first
resident. I have Glomeratas none of my
friends can remember and all the Wendy's
employees know me by name and have my
order waiting before I've had time to open
my mouth. The cashiers in the University
Bookstore even know what kind of gum I
chew and I'm sure the campus police have
my license plate number memorized.
The saddest thing is that I know senility
has set in. I used to claim proudly that
though I'm not too great at names, I never
forget a face. Well, those days are gone.
I now hold frequent conversations with
people I could swear I've never laid eyes on
before, but who seem to know all about me.
My eyesight is shot too, I keep mistaking
freshmen for children visiting from a local
elementary school.
It's been a long time coming but, alas,
this is my swan-column; my last chance for
Auburn immorality. How nice, I thought. A
simple farewell column. No research, no
hate-mail, no problem. I was wrong.
It's not easy to condense four years of
Monique
VanLandingham
your life into a tew column inches. So after I
picked my brain for an idea and found
nothing there, I turned to the faithful
bound volumns to read the goodbye
columns of my predecesors, and tried to
pick their brains. I soon gave up on plagiar­ism,
though, because I knew no one would
believe I had learned to write so well so
quickly. I did, however, find the old tried
and true theme and decided to elaborate on
it.
My section editor last year wrote a
column suggesting "do's and don'is at
Auburn which could have helped me a
great deal had I paid heed. So for those
brighter than I who can benefit from oth­er's
mistakes, here's what I've learned from
mine.
1) I've learned never take books on a road
trip with the intent of "studying on the
way." They will only take up space in the
trunk.
2) I've learned to sleep through lectures
with an alert expression.
3) I've learned to get to know at least one
person in every class so I can borrow the
notes I missed while sleeping.
4) I've learned every teacher thinks his
class and only his class is the most impor­tant
thing in my life and we get along just
fine if I like when I was expected to be at
half dozen meetings, simultaneously, or
when I was in pretend to agree.
5) I've learned it's great to get "involved"
but many's a roomful of people debating
the price at which to sell donuts instead of
studying for a mammoth test the next day.
6) I've learned close friends are irreplace­able,
and to keep good friends I must be one.
7) I've learned never get too terribly con­cerned
about anything that doesn't last to
eternity.
8) I've learned my parents were right
about a lot of things that I'm still unwilling
to admit.
9) I've learned the thing I've learned best
from Auburn is that I still have a whole lot
to learn.

Ring out the old...
The time has finally come!
After years of education, months of
planning and weeks of waiting, I've finally
taken over the reins as editor, of The
Plainsman.
It's going to be a big job, and, to be hon­est,
I have had my doubts about undertak­ing
such a huge responsibility. The past
few weeks my thoughts have ranged from
"I can't do it," to "Why can't I do it?" and
finally to "I deserve it." I've worked hard
for three years to be able to do this job, and
there is no reason why I won't be able to do
it.
But boy do I (and my staff) have a tough
act to follow!
Let me immediately extend my congratu­lations
to the 1983 staff for putting out the
best newspaper I have seen while I have
been at Auburn. Style reached an all-time
high and content, as always, was
admirable.
So here I am in the midst of editing my
first issue ever, and I'm right back around
to "I can't do it" again.
The headliner is broken (again), copy is
coming in late (as always) and we have new
staff members in unfamiliar staff positions
trying to put out an issue of the largest
weekly newspaper in Alabama.
But you know, it all is worth it, and I
wouldn't ever give it up.
I wouldn't give up the late nights, broken
equipment and missed deadlines for any­thing.
(Hey! maybe I'm in the wrong busi­ness,
maybe I should become a con-man.)
To the old staff, we've had lots of good
times. Sure we've made some minor mis­takes,
(perhaps "judgement errors" is a bet­ter
term). How can we ever justify running
a V* page photo of George "Goober" Lind­say
on the front of entertainment? But
we've scored big at times, too. (Our 23-22
issue is destined to become a classic.)
We've had weeks when we had way too
much news (and had to pawn it all off to
respective editors), a few weeks when there
was no news at all and we were hoping that
narc would make a gigantic drug bust or
something of the sort and, of course, that
fateful week when we made up our own
news. (So what if it was Jeff Mason's
homework assignment?) Perhaps in the
future we need to take great pains in assur­ing
the accuracy of our copy (maybe we can
hold the copy staff at bay at gunpoint, any
big gun would do).
Editorially speaking, I think the paper
was especially strong, expressing over­whelming
feelings at times (Oh! Hell Yes!)
and becoming almost mute-like when it
was appropriate ("Hanly Pleeease.. .").
But that is all in the past now. It is finally
our year and we should set our own priori­ties
and goals.
I guess my main priority as editor is
going to be to involve as many of the stu­dents
as possible as much of the time. This
column is my best chance to play recruiter
and I'm going to make the best of it.
First of all, the Plainsman always needs
writers be they journalism students or
whatever. For some reason, the majority of
the student body is under the impression
we look down upon non-journalism majors.
It's my luck to have what I think is going
to be one of the fairest, and most open-minded
editorial boards that has existed in
a long time. I have the utmost trust and
faith in this group of people that I am sure
to spend many a sleepless night with in the
coming year.
We will all strive, as in the past, to pres­ent
all sides of an issue as fairly as possible.
We will try our best not to automatically
commit members of the SGA to the jail-house
just because someone comes in ragin'
about senators dipping into a purported
slushfund from shaker sales (as long as
each member of the editorial board receives
two press passes to each football game).
We know that we won't be able to make
everyone happy this year, but we will try
our best not to rub anyone the wrong way.
Even if we do, we can feign amnesia and
just claim whatever it is never happened.
(Except for you Melissa, I refuse to bother
you about your hair less than I have in the
past.)
In summary, let me just say that I am
proud of my staff already. To put up with
60-hour work weeks, low (and I do mean
low) paychecks and no glory whatsoever is
a credit to their love for Auburn.
And no matter what we have to go
through in order to accomplish our goals,
including angry students, inquisitive
faculty members ("Can't you just add
another page?") and even bus drivers who
just want to see their picture in The
Plainsman, we can always console our­selves
with the line we have used so many
times in the past.
"If they only knew," what we go through,
"if they only knew."
A-5 The Auburn Plainsman x Thursday, May 26, 1983
The end of the road
It's been a long five years since I arrived
at Auburn. It was a bright, hot summer
morning in September when I set my feet
down on the road of college with absolute
eagerness and excitement. But I was scared
too. (Isn't everyone?)
Four more years of school, I thought, four
more years, and it wouldn't be like high
school either. This was going to be work,
hard work, and I honestly didn't know if I
had the guts to do it. But I wanted it and so I
was going to try.
Freshman year was a nightmare. I made
a lot of new friends, but my grades wouldn't
have qualified me to work in a coal mine.
The night life was great though. (Does
anyone remember Darvo's "Disco" now
"Darvo's Duds and Suds"?) Still and all,
I pulled it out folks, and lived to tell the tale
like hundreds of other freshmen. I knew
there were a lot of kids that didn't make it
though and I was properly humbled when I
came back in fall as a sophomore.
That's when I jumped on the Plainsman
Express and what a wild ride it was. Work­ing
here led to working at the Glom, and all
of it led to meeting everyone in Auburn
from the president himself to the head of
Food Services. I loved it. Auburn wasn't so
formidable after all. School became easy
now, and I found out that professors are
human too.
(What am I saying here, you're begin­ning
to wonder?)
Work hard, play hard and stick with it,
folks. You can do it, if anyone's an example
of that, I am. I honestly never believed I'd
get to stomp across that makeshift stage in
the coliseum to grab my diploma.
The quarters go by, though and you see
your friends do it and after a while you start
to think it can be you too.
There are people though, who college just
doesn't do anything for. If you're one of
those people, don't despair, that's the worst
thing you can do. Drop out a few quarters if
you feel you just absolutely don't fit in. One
of my professors, Georgia Valleay. who I
admire said once, "College is an expen­sive
place to fail. And if you fail here you
feel like you've failed at life. But college
just isn't for everyone; some people have
talents that can't be taught or learned, just
done."
I've remembered what she said for the
rest of my college experience and it kept me
from condemning those of my friends who
felt, they could do better out in the real
world. I believe though that you should try
hard first, and give Auburn a chance. I
know you've heard it before, but Auburn is
a unique place and a unique experience. If
you really want to fit in, there's a place for
you.
It helps to take classes that interest you.
Just because you're in engineering, doesn't
mean you can't take a philosophy class or
an English class (they're not all like EH
101). Or even some fun courses like Mate
Selection, which I recommend highly, or
Dr. Williamson's military history class.
Now, don't tell me you can't pass classes
that are outside you major, because you
can. It will help make you a well-rounded
individual who knows more than the
theory of relativity and what the proper
mixture of feed is for bovine.
I think college is becoming too much like
a trade school where we concentrate on one
major subject to the neglect of the arts and
humanities. I realize that the cost of going
to college is prohibitive as to make a person
want to take just what he needs to gradu­ate,
but still, try to make the effort.
Auburn's been great to me. I've come a
long way from the little 18-year-old fresh­man
who used to sit on the steps of Alumni
Hall and wonder about life. I didn't do it
alone. I had the help of family (my dad, his
money and his great patience) and friends
(Miss Piggy, Alicia who doubled as Porn
Princess and Keith, my personal rah-rah).
Professors were my saving grace. Even
as I write: thank you Dr. K, Dr. Bond, Dr.
Williamson, dear old Bill Davis ; it's great
'to visit your professor in what you think is
some ivory tower and end up a regular vis­itor
who will drop by to chat once or twice a
week.
I've come to the end of the road, folks, and
I'm finding that it wasn't such a rough
journey after all. Now, it's my turn to get
teary-eyed like the old alums and yearn to
stay forever in the shadow of Samford
Tower. But the road has ended at the huge
super highway and I can't wait to get
started!
Glom editor seeks fee raise
Enough has been said about the short­comings
and inadequecies of the recent
Budget and Finance committee hearings.
The problem facing the nine projects
funded by student activity fees is the lack of
sufficient funds to continue to serve
Auburn students at the same quality and
quantity level of service as in the past.
Each student utilizes the services of these
projects to some degree during the year,
even if it's only to cut the Wendy's coupons
out of the Plainsman.
For the amount of money each student
pays each quarter (eight dollars) the return
on his investment is remarkable, consider­ing
the availability of free movies, reduced
concert prices, a weekly newspaper, a year­book,
a student-run radio station and prac­tically
any sport available that one would
want to be involved in, not to mention the
benefits of the student government associ­ation
and the other projects.
As I sat in the Budget and Finance com­mittee
hearings I tried to focus on the situa­tion
as an average Auburn student, with­out
any biased views on the funds
allocation. My basic emotion was one of
sorrow as I listened to project after project
get money cut from their budget. Some of
the projects did not feel the crunch as much
as others, but it was obvious to anyone
present that each organization only
wanted the best for Auburn University
because of a genuine desire to see the stu­dents
get the best quality possible.
The only way to solve the problem of hav­ing
to cut out so many services to the stu­dents
is to allocate more money, and the
only way to allocate more money is to have
more money in the fund to begin with. Due
to the continuing decline in enrollment and
the present rise in the cost of living, the
only way to ha ve more money in the fund is
to raise the amount each student pays into
the fund each year. Even an increase of one
dollar per quarter would generate roughly
$50,000 more per year that would go
directly to improving the students services.
The Board of Trustees are the only ones
with the power to do this. Their next meet­ing
is in June at which time they could
discuss this increase.
If anyone has any feelings on this subject
the best way to make your opinion known is
by writing directly to a member of the
Board. If enough people do this, they will
realize how the students feel about this and
this time next year we won't be having the
same problem with cutting out your favor­ite
student funded activity.

Editor, The Plainsnian,
Since 1980, the Auburn Society for
Environmental Protection (ASEP) has
worked on discussion, community aware­ness

What price education?
Let us assume, shall we, that Auburn is
an institution of higher learning. If so, then
Auburn could not get by with teaching
courses and assigning grades and thus
graduating 'educated' students.
Why? Well, for one thing, an education is
more than learning some skill or profes­sion;
instead it involves something not
offered in the classroom. It includes scho­larly
lectures by guest speakers, an expo­sure
to and an appreciation for the arts and
the opportunity to express oneself
creatively.
The Budget and Finance Committee of
the SGA attacked the roots of education
(reasoning "the greatest good for the grea­test
number of people") when they cut cer­tain
programs including The Circle, and
the academic lecture series.
Granted, the average student at Auburn
has no desire to go to lectures or to submit
some composition to The Circle; however,
the number of participating students,
unlike B & F believes, should not be the
only criterion for determining the value of
an activity. If the SGA decided to distribute
free beer on the Concourse on Friday after­noons,
students would show up in masses;
but what would be the value?
For those who are unaware, B & F gave
The Circle 21.9 percent less than it received
last year and the committee cut the aca­demic
lecture series from $9,700 to $700.
This is quite a cut and could mean the end
of these programs.
How does this affect you? Remember, a
lot goes into making a University. Of
course, the accreditation of Auburn lends to
its prestige, but the extracurricular activi­ties
offered also add to it.
The reason The Circle and the lectures
were cut by B & F was that not enough
students were involved proportionally to
the number enrolled. This means these ser­vices
were aiding in the education of some
but not enough to impress the senators and
therefore they were cut drastically. ,
These cuts were necessary for Auburn to
continue to pass out shakers to the lucky
few who happened to get them at football
games and.to insure at least one "good"
concert next year so the University can
brag about having some big name perform­ing
on campus. Shakers and rock concerts
are certainly not as educational as lectures
and proportionally, the poor distribution/-
turnout does not justify the expense.
Listen to this, the Spirit Committee,
which buys the shakers, spent $3,085 last
year and received $6,000 this year. That is
an increase of nearly $3,000! Shakers are
wonderful for school spirit but hardly
educational.
What is the problem with all this? Well,
something is needed to promote an image
of higher education for Auburn to keep up
the facade of a University. That is where
the lectures and The Circle come in. These
programs provide an opportunity for the
student to broaden his horizons by expe­riencing
other people's views.
The Circle publishes works by students
and faculty members and aids in the over­all
education of those involved, be they
contributors or merely readers.
The lecture series presents informative
guests whose thought-provoking speeches
encourage the student to reason. Spring
quarter alone brought five lectures to
Auburn including Congressman Paul
Simon and Dr. Natalie Z. Davis. Interim
President Dr. Wilford Bailey expressed
deep concern over the cuts in academic lec­tures
made by B & F.
To cancel these programs only cancels
the goal of the University~to promote edu­cation.
Perhaps the University needs to
encourage more students to get involved in
these programs so they can justify (to
themselves) that the money is well spent.
But to slowly phase them out by cutting
these programs and programs like them
only leads to a deterioration of the basic
ideal of a University: to graduate educated
and well-rounded individuals. Anything
less is on the level of a technical school and
Auburn has too much potential for us to
allow that decline.

response
Editor, The Plainsman,
I couldn't stand it any longer. I had to
speak my mind, concerning the SGA
Budget and Finance Committee (B&F).
Having attended a meeting, I left appalled
at what I saw. It seemed to me that only a
half-dozen of the committee members were
seriously concerned and informed enough
to be even somewhat sound in their deci­sions.
I'm not blaming the committee so
much as the system. I think the Plainsman
editorial two weeks ago had a good solution
to the problem with the system (budgets
being decided at the end of the committee
member's terms). They simply need more
time to learn before being slapped with a
half-million dollars of student activity
funds to allocate. I realize that these people
were honestly trying, but I still sat in
wonderment of the committee responsible
for the monetary future (or non-future) of
eight campus organizations.
As a concerned Glomerata staffer, I feel
compelled to speak about the unfairness
that trickled down to the 1984 Glom, not to
mention to other student publications that
were cut. I'm not saying that a 19 percent
decrease in the Glom's budget (not includ­ing
the factor of increased printing costs
for next year) will be the ruination of the
Glom, but that if the SGA is so fired up
about working to better its image and
Auburn University's image, which has
been drug through the mud lately, it should
take a more serious look at the inner work­ings
of the student publications before
deciding the financial future of them. This
should have been foremost in their
decision-making process. It is these publi­cations
that serve as important image-makers
in printed form. This is important
to the student body, prospective students
and to the University as a whole.
The Glomerata is the most permanent
and lasting of these publications and it
deserves to be the best it can be. Also, the
Glom is the most vulnerable of the publica­tions
when budget-cutting time rolls
around. It has no direct representation on
the B&F Committee. A committee
researcher can't even begin to know all the
implications behind the scenes. No one
knows the Glom's situation better than a
staff member. In addition, the Glom has no
source of outside income other than fees
paid by Greeks and other organizations for
pages. These fees don't even cover the
printing costs for those pages.
As for obtaining money from the SGA's
emergency fund-just what constitutes an
emergency? The Glomerata is faced with
an emergency situation right now. There is
no time for anticipating obtaining "emer­gency"
funds when standing decisions
about the printing of the book have to be
made before even the most preliminary
stages of the development of it is consi­dered.
With no contingency fund left in the
new Glom budget, how can plans be made
in the structured way that they have to?
The 1984 Glomerata faces this dilemma.
Does this need to happen at a university
that is growing and expanding every day
while striving for excellence in everything
it offers?

McLoughlin off base
Editor, The Plainsman,
I was greatly appalled after reading Pat
McLoughlin's letter, "Budget and Finance
Can't Do the Job" in last week's Plains­man.
It scares me to think that an individ­ual
of his caliber was actually a candidate
for SGA President. It would seem that such
a candidate would have the betterment of
Auburn as his main goal, win or lose. (Now
it appears that he is occupied otherwise.)
I am referring to his ignorant remarks
concerning the allocation of student acitiv-ity
fees by the Senate Budget and Finanace
Committee. I McLoughlin had truly been
interested, he would have attended the
allocation hearings into late hours for two
long weeks. Here he_could have gained
some knowledge as to what was actually
accomplished. I don't believe he is aware of
the tedious research and hard work that
was definitely put into preparing next
year's budget. The problem is that there
was just simply not enough money to go
around. Cuts had to be made, many of
which were painful to make. The money
was allocated in such a manner as to give
the maximum benefit to the majority of
Auburn students. McLoughlin offered no
constructive criticism in his letter, so I will
assume he has none. I believe that the
recent election "proved" that Auburn stu­dents
are not in favor of negative, radical,
pessimistic, and depressing views of
Auburn.
So Pat, "For the good of Auburn," please
graduate.

Moonies face prejudice
Editor, The Plainsman,
In a country renowned for religious free­dom,
I am constantly amazed to find that
people harbor strong prejudicial feelings
against particular religious groups. One
would think that after the horrible treat­ment
of the Christians and the Jews,
humans would learn to become more toler­ant
of those who have beliefs different from
their own.
People oftentimes mention Moonies in a
negative way, albeit due to ignorance of
what they teach and believe. Most often this
image has been fostered by the media,
which always has the potential to distort
thfe truth. However, I was particularly dis­turbed
to hear one of my instructors clas­sify
members of the Unification Church
(Moonies) as "undesirables," not only in
the state of Alabama, but in this country in
general.
Can Dye sign mine?
Editor, The Plainsman
With a number of my friends
anticipating their upcoming graduation, I
began to consider the consequences of my
own commencement from this blessed
land-grant university at the end of summer
quarter.
Along with my diploma, I'll carry with
On the contrary, the Unification Church
and its members should be highly
respected in a nation that cherishes truth,
freedom, unity and justice. Rev. Moon has
taught his followers to strive for these very
ideals. Rev. Moon himself has been falsely
accused and persecuted as have all reli­gious
leaders in history. Although those
who represent the Unification church on
this campus may be small in number,
many of you rub shoulders with them every
day.
I am greatly surprised and disappointed
that such ignorance and prejudice con­tinues
to exist in an institution of higher
learning.

Graduation is significant
Editor, The Plainsman,
In response to the article entitled "In
Opposition to Graduation" I would like to
give my own personal views on the matter.
I am speaking from the parent standpoint
of a lot of the graduates. Parents are not
victims of the graduation ceremony. "The
long ride" was not tiring and hot, it was the
greatest day of our life. A dream come true!
My children are now Auburn Alumni. To
see their names in print, on the graduation
program, what a joy! In debt! No I am not in
debt. We made sacrificies for 20 years for
our two to walk across the stage at Auburn
University. Seats hard! What seats? Who
would worry about the $5.95 fee for the
gown after all the expenses encounted the
other four years. Yes, the fuzzy stars by the
name does mean something. Indeed it does!
I realize that all students do not go
through graduation ceremony for various
reasons. But I can truly say the greatest joy
of our life was the day I heard my children's
name called out over th microphone and
watched them shake the hand of the
president.
To buy a graduation gift is not an
obligation, but a' privilege. After all the
sacrificies made by our family to see that
Wink and Celia had a college education, to
me it would have been the worst disaster of
my life if they had not walked across the
stage at Auburn University.
I hope that graduation ceremony will
always be a part of AU. What's the
significance? The greatest joy in life to hear
a grandparent say "That's my grandson."
Call me old fashion or whatever, I really
don't care.
Yes, Monique, "There is really
significance in graduation!"
Mrs. Wink Chapman
me many fond memories of. my close
"cohorts," an education in Marketing
principles, numerous regression programs
and an "Around the World" bottle
collection from Darnell's. .
I've fully enjoyed my seven quarters
worth of Auburn people and fun and am
anxiously awaiting my move into the real
world. However, I absolutely dread the
thought of the signature that will
inevitably "grace" my diploma.
I refer not to Dr. Bailey's autograph, but
rather the one of our state's political
stigma—Honorable George. It shakes my
soul to imagine the snickers I'll endure
when people, upon examination of my
diploma, will pay more attention to
Wallace's name than the type of degree I
earned. I've always borne the brunt of
many jokes, but the thought of decorating
my den with his initials for the rest of my
natural life seems unbearable.
Therefore, for my peace of mind and
future well-being, could you please exert
your insurpaseable influence in getting
Coach Pat Dye to sign my diploma in the
Governor's stead? I know it's a lot to ask,
but just think of the people I'll impress and
the Auburn Alumni I'll have one up on. I'd
appreciate it.

On June 27, when Mission Con­trol
in Houston beamed up "Hold
That Tiger," an Auburn University
pep song, astronaut and Auburn
alumnus Ken Mattingly respond­ed:
"We love that tune. Found out
something up here though...you
can't stomp your feet to it."
While Auburn graduates Mat­tingly
and Henry Hartsfield were
orbiting the earth in the Columbia
space shuttle's fourth and "smooth­est
flight ever," thousands of
Auburn fans and alumni were fly­ing
high with pride, and when the
two came home for the Auburn-
Nebraska football game on Oct. 2,
they got more than a welcome
home from their alma mater—they
got a big "War Eagle" celebration.
• In October, Plainsman investiga­tions
revealed that textbooks at
Auburn University aren't as expen­sive
as students may think. In com­paring
six frequently used books,
Auburn University ranked second
in the state in low, new textbook pri­ces.
The University of Montevallo
had the lowest prices, and the Uni­versity
of Alabama at Birmingham
carried the most expensive books in
the state.
During the summer, asbestos, a
fibrous material known to cause
lung cancer, was discovered in the
ceilings of between 50-60 University
buildings, including Haley Center
and the hill dorms. In October, the
Campus Planning Committee
began searching for a company to
study the problem and make
recommendations, a process which
was drawn out for several months.
Finally, Harmon Engineering and
Testing of Auburn was hired to sur­vey
the campus and later made
recommendations for asbestos rem­oval,
but because of its expense,
asbestos still remains in the ceilings
of campus buildings.
In late October, the Board of Trus­tees
voted to tear down Broun Hall
and construct Engineering Building
II in its place, a highly modern
structure that would help remedy
accreditation problems now faced
by the School of Engineering. But
the decision to destroy the building,
which now houses Auburn Naval

"Save Broun Hall" echoed across
the campus, the destruction of
Auburn's fourth oldest structure is
planned for March 1984.
When "no elephant" roadsigns
began appearing on the roadsides of
Alabama highways 29 and 147, no
one thought much about it. In fact,
no one claimed to even know any­thing
about it. Some believed that
the symbols were the handiwork' of
the Democrats, while others specu­lated
that they referred to that Tus­caloosa
pachyderm — A u b i e ' s
rival. University Relations didn't
have any information about who
stuck the elephants on the roadside,
but someone there said she'd like "to
have one for herself." And a spo­kesman
at the State Democratic
Headquarters said, "I don't know
anything about it, but I'll bet it's
darn cute."
But soon three Auburn students
confessed to putting up the road
signs and cleared the controversy—
they were most definitely anti-
Alabama symbols, and the students
threatened, "Don't be surprised to
see another pent-up pachyderm
appear before next football season."
In November, only a few months
into his term of office as SGA presi­dent,
Bill Godwin said that things
couldn't have been planned any bet­ter.
"I don't think I could have
mapped the year out to be any more
rewarding than it already has been.
And, I'm optimistic about the future.
But you can't do it by yourself," he
said. "It's vain if you even try."
Although Godwin said he's "blessed
to be in this position," he added, "I
don't live for it. There will be no void
in my life when next April comes
because I know I just inherited this
desk for one year."

Ad-Hoc
buildings have not been taken in
any particular order because build­ing
adjustments are usually made
during renovations.
"There was just not money desig­nated
for that," Tillman says of a
large-scale compliance program.
"The only hope we have is that
when renovations are r'one in a
building, we are required to. make
t h a t part accessbile to the
handicapped."
"It is important for students to
realize that every time they take a
step, there is somebody behind then
that can't take that step," Hender­son
said of increasing campus
awareness of the needs of handi­capped
students. "If I was a handi­capped
student, I wouldn't know
where to go to get help."
The diversity of committee
members will help make it more
effective, he said. Two of the
members served on the previous
Committee for the Handicapped;
there are members of the central
administration, as well as handi­capped
members, and some are in
positions to influence building
design and maintenance.
"We have a good makeup of repre­sentatives,"
he said. "It is a nice
combination of people to make the
proper recommendations to get
things done."
Henderson said that in order to
adequately chair this committee, he
has done personal research on this
problem. He obtained and read a
report from the U.S. Department of
Education on the handicapped and
says he hopes his research will help
him to understand how handi­capped
students feel.
"Those of us that are able-bodied
should come to grips with the fact
that the world is geared to the able-bodied,"
he said. "We don't give a
thought that it is so easy for us. The
handicapped students have always
been with us, but the problem is that
when you don't see a handicapped
person, you don't realize there is a
problem. What you have to look at in
creating programs is access to pro­grams
other than able-bodied
students.
"The sad part is that many people
who aren't impaired don't respect
the needs of those who are
impaired," Tillman said. As exam­ples,
he cited the installment of
sticks on the walls in elevators to
help handicapped people to be able
to push elevator buttons. After install­ation,
he said, the sticks were pulled
off and handicapped individuals
were right back where they were
before.
"That's more discouraging than
not having funds," he said.
"The handicapped cry has not
been heard at Auburn," Henderson
said. "You not only look at physical
access, but the attitudinal problem,"
he said. "You have to remove barri­ers
to thinking. If you have the men­tal
ability and the will to go through
higher education, nothing should
stop you," he said. "We do not have
institutions created for the handi­capped
and they are every bit as
deserving."
Group members have been asked
to think about what they can con­tribute
to the committee and explain
it in writing. As soon as the mate­rials
are consolidated and directions
mapped out, the committee will
convene.
"We've got to learn to see the
world as a handicapped person sees
it," Henderson said. "1 have to work
on my own awareness."
Tillman said there is some res-continued
from A-3
tructuring currently underway on
campus. Dorm 1 is scheduled to
undergo handicapped renovation to
provide facilities for the handi­capped,
and the new Student Activi­ties
Building due to open next year
will meet all restrictive require­ments,
he said. "There has been a
line-item budget from the outset for
equipment for handicapped stu­dents,"
he said. "Not only will the
building be available for them to
come watch, it will be available for
them to participate."
"It's not like Auburn overlooked
this problem," Tillman said. "This
is a common one on every campus in
the country. There were just no
funds."
Judo stresses body control
Don't think you need a brown belt
in judo to be in Auburn's Judo club.
"You don't have to be an expert to
join," says judo club instructor
Dennis O'Quinn. Beginners are
being accepted into the club and
there is no restriction on age or sex,
adding, "We have a female instruc­tor,"
and "she is also a brown belt."
Judo students get involved in
learning the art for different rea­sons,
says O'Quinn. "Some people
learn judo for self-defense while oth­ers
use it for weight control."
O'Quinn says that as instructor
he does not try to direct a student
toward one reason or the other for
learning judo but helps them after
they have chosen a direction.
"The real focus is on conditioning
the body," he says. The body and the
mind must be ready to handle a
situation. "Balance and knowing
where you're at is a big part of judo,"
says O'Quinn.
"We want the club to grow," says
the instructor. If there is a large
membership by fall quarter
O'Quinn hopes to hold a judo
tournament.

rtff UBURN
UNIVERSITY
BOOKSTORE
TIPS ON BUYING AND SELLING TEXTBOOKS THAT
COULD SAVE YOU $ $ $
Today's emphasis is on getting the most out of the shrinking dollar. The follow­ing
fads and suggestions are intended to inform the students and help them
understand book buying and selling. Our main goal is to serve the needs of the
campus community.
NEW BOOKS
New textbooks-are bought from publishers (who establish the retail price) at
a small discount from the letail price. The University Bookstore must pay the
freight or postage charges, usually about 6 %, for the books to be shipped to the
store. If the course is dropped or the professor does not use the book, the Univer­sity
Bookstore must pay the freight charges, another 6%, to return these books
to the publisher. From the remainder of the discount, the University Bookstore
must pay its overhead expenses.
USED BOOKS
Used books are bought from companies who specialize in handling used
books and from students. The University Bookstore buys books from students at
50% of the NEW BOOK price, if the book will be used during the coming
quarter, if we do not have sufficient quantities for anticipated enrollment, and
if it is the current edition. We also buy books for wholesale companies if they are
discontinued. The company sets the prices we may pay for them.
So that you will obtain the most money for your books, the University Book­store
offers the following suggestions:
Never rely on other students to tell you what books are required. The best source
is the instructor and the second is the textbook lists furnished the bookstore by
the department.
Attend your first class meeting before buying your book. Refunds will be made
only if you drop the course and have course drop slip and cash register receipt for
the book.
Take care of your books. Missing pages, or water soaked pages made a book
worthless. Crib notes do not affect the price.
Do not write or make any marks in the new books until you are certain you will
complete the course. No refunds can be made without books in original condi­tion.
Sell your books as soon as you are convinced the book is no longer needed.
Never accept any price for a stack of books. Get a price for each book you sell.
Our buyers have been instructed to give you a price for each book.
We suggest you check other store prices and then the University Bookstore prices
before selling your books.
Never attempt to sell a stolen book. This sounds trite . . . .we do not
recommend stealing, property for any reason . . . .but here are the facts.
Occasionally a student will steal a book and attempt to sell it. The bookstores
maintain open communication between themselves, with the students, the
University Police and school officials. A list of stolen titles is kept at the book
buying counters in each store. The risks far outweigh the small monetary gain.
Is it really worth it?
If your books are stolen, notify each bookstore giving your name and the author
and title of the book immediately. We will do our best to help you locate your
books.
Buy used books when possible.
Example: New Textbook sells for $10.00 We sell used book for $7.50
We buy used book for $5.00 We will buy back for $5.00
This means you have used the book for $2.50 or 25% of the new book price.

The Harris 800, with its intercon­nection
to the 500, fills a critical
need in Auburn's computing capa­bilities
by providing a system dedi­cated
to engineering research, Dean
Weaver noted.
The Harris 800, with superior
speed and greater storage capacity
than the 500, is capable of perform­ing
1.6 million instructions per
second and, with triple precision,
Funderburk -
accuracy to 22 digits. Designed for
many research applications, it is
now linked to 34 interactive termi­nology
to commercial uses.
The Harris 800 also will serve as
the information hub for the School
of Engineering with direct links to
the largest computer on campus, the
IBM 3032 in the University Comput­ing
Center, and to the VAX 11/780
and other Enginering computers.

ways Auburn's administrative
problems could be solved in the
courts and in state and federal
agencies...That same week the
directors of the Auburn National
Alumni Association met and also
voted against the chancellorship
plan...The association did not vote
confidence in the president as it had
done in previous meetings, signal­ing
that the alumni support for
Funderburk was possibly weake­ning...
Still further, on Feb. 15, the
SGA Senate voted 33-1 that it
would be in the best interest of the
school for Funderburk to re­sign...
The resolution didn't, how­ever,
say Funderburk was responsi­ble
for the problems at the
U n i v e r s i t y . . . T h a t same week,
Auburn's troubles were being fea­tured
in Time Magazine. "USA
Today" later followed with a sim­ilar
story...By Feb. 22, the state
Senate was also getting into the act.
It voted to create an eight-man
committee with subpoena power to
get to the bottom of the controversy..
..However, the committee proved to
be unnecessary...On the Saturday
after the committee was created,
Feb. 26, 1983, Dr. Hanly H. Fun­derburk
offered his resignation
to the trustees at a special board
meeting in Montgomery...The board
accepted, and immediately asked
Dr. Wilford S. Bailey, a long-time
teacher and administrator at
Auburn, to step in as interim pre­sident...
Bailey has said he isn't a
candidate for the job permanently,
and says he will return to semi-retirement
from the University as
soon as a permanent president can
be selected.

April that Auburn needed 29.6

to maintain a competitive

approximately 30 percent increase
which the president requested, the
University is likely to receive a 2
percent increase that Governor

would be a hectic job. But he didn't
know just how hectic it could be. In
November, he said, "I've been work­ing
with the senate for three years,
so I know it was busy being vice
president, but I didn't realize it was
quite this busy." But he said, "I
enjoy it. I hope I'm doing a good job,
and that's what keeps me going. I
want to do a good job for the stu­dents,"
he said.
The new year brought a decrease
in Lee County unemployment
from 13.4 percent in November to
10.9 percent, a welcome relief after
the Uniroyal Tire plant in Opelika
laid off more than 600 employees
during the summer. With the new
year, Uniroyal rehired 215 of those
employees, but the unemployment
problem still remained. At Auburn
University's student placement ser­vices,
28 percent of the companies
interviewing last year cancelled
interviews during fall quarter.

unemployment situation to riding in
a car with the brakes on. "If you
floor the gas, put on the brakes, then
give it gas—you'll almost go
through the windshield." He was
optimistic that we'll get there, but
"it's very painful," he said.
In March, University Food
Services announced the debut of
computerized cash registers sche­duled
on campus for summer quar­ter.
The computerized system,
unlike the cash registers currently
in use, displays the purchaser's bal­ance
for the month each time the
Chefs Club credit card is used,
allowing students to keep track of
how much money they're spending
on food and eliminate keypunching
time in the Chefs Club office. In
addition, the quality and selection
of food served in University cafete­rias
is improving, said Arthur Call,
director of Food Service Adminis­tration,
"but it's taking time and
money," he said.

May 17, calling for
Auburn University to hire more
black professors.
Holmes tried to get the House to
bring the resolution up for an imme-»

reach the four-fifths vote needed to
suspend the rules.
The resolution was sent to the
House Rules Committee, which
could kill it or bring it up for consid­eration
later.
continued from A-l
When Holmes introduced his reso­lution,
Auburn had only three black
full-time faculty members, since
then an additional black professor
had been hired.
Melvin Currie from Pittsburg,
Perm., was hired as an assistant pro­fessor
to teach mathematics begin­ning
fall quarter.
Currie'8 arrival will bring the
total number of black faculty at
Auburn to four out of 975 full-time
faculty members on campus.
