State Board Opposes Bond Amendment KLAMATH FALLS (Special)— The State Board of Higher Educa tion is opposing a proposed *' ' amendment to the Oregon Con stitution. The amendment, which will be Ballot Measure No. 2 in Novem ber. is called “State Bonds for Education Facilities.” Chancellor Roy E. Lieuallen of the State System said the amend ment was originally intended to make explicit the Board’s author itv to use the proceeds from the sale of bonds under Article Xl-F (1) of the Oregon Constitution for classrooms laboratories, li- j braries and other general use fa- j cilities. Cancels Capacity But the Education Subcommit tee of the 1965 Legislature’s Ways and Means Committee changed the resolution so that it cancels any unused bonding capacity under another section of the Con stitution. Article XI-G. This, Lieuallen says, will re duce the State System’s bonding capacity by $26.5 million “at the very time when construction needs are at an all-time high.” The Ways and Means change will also allow the State Board to declare that classrooms, labora tories. and libraries are “self liquidating,” that is, able to pay for themselves. Referring to that provision, board member Philip Joss said he could not understand a provision that “allows us to say black is white.” He pointed out that there is no way to make classrooms or other such facilities pay for them selves. Lieuallen said the proposal Stadium ... (Continued frcnn page 1) the stadium and cited studies done by SOM and others to bear this out. In other business affecting the University, the State Board: • Heard a report on selection of the architectural firm of Bal zhiser, Seder, and Rhodes of Eu gene for the proposed mental retardation center to be located at the University. This is in connection with a larger project at the Medical School. Both have made applica tion for a federal grant to cover the project. • Approved the purchase of access for the economy residence halls to be built across the Mill race. Dancers to Talk At Arts Academy One of America’s well known choreographers, Sophie Maslow of New York, will be at the University Tuesday through June 30 as guest lecturer during the first two weeks of the 1966 Sum mer Academy of Contemporary Arts. The dancer and choreographer will give a public performance at 8 p.m. Thursday in the Student Union Ballroom. Miss Maslow is one of four cre ative artists who will come to the University this summer under the auspices of the Summer Acad emy, now in its eighth year. Miss Maslow was one of the first modern dance choreograph ers to deal with American folk material. One of her first solos was “Dust Bowl Ballads” which utilized songs by Woody Guth rie, Persons may enroll today for the complete Summer Academy of Contemporary Arts program, or at the beginning of each two week course. Sessions are open to auditors well as students registered for credit. Classes meet for two hours, usu ally Monday through Thursday, at 3 Academy fees for University credit or audit are $28 for each twe week session. The fee for vis itors is $8 for each two week session. No distinction in seat ing is made among auditors, regu larly enrolled students, and visi tors. would mean that state funds would have to be used to re-pay these bonds. Right now bonds for educational facilities are paid for by building fees, as in the case of dormitories, or profits, as in the case of student unions. Classroom buildings have always been paid for out of state funds. Chancellor Lieuallen also show ed the board tentative "15" and "C” budget requests. These re quests are for projects author ized but not completely funded by the 1965 Legislature and new projects which are needed to im prove the State System. The requests totaled $21.3 mil lion. The budget included a list of system-wide requests, plus indi vidual requests for each school. Each of the college presidents said the system-wide requests, which apply to all the schools, were the most important. Increases These included such items as $3.8 million for increases in teach ing staff. $1.5 million for admin istrative and civil service staff additions, and $3 million for a reserve for unanticipated enroll ment increases, such as the one which staggered the State System this year. University requests included $100,000 for Law School expan sion, $105,040 for the new aca demic advising program, $120,000 for the development of a marine biology station at Charleston, Ore., $91,911 for computer schod : tiling and registration, and $-110, 000 for equipment acquisitions. That totaled $826,951. In other business the Board: • Tabled discussion of whether or not to raise out-of-state gradu ate tuition, which is presently the same as for in state students. No liaise Lieuallen said he would recoin mend not raising the fee and Board Secretary Richard Collins said that the increased income from such a plan "would not be very great.” Lieuallen did recommend that non-resident undergraduate tui tion at Oregon Technical Insti Lite be raised to the full $900 a year rate in two $105 steps. • Voted to grant resident status to Stephen Hitchcock, an OT1 student Hitchcock had earlier appealed to the Board because he had been declared a non-resident by OTI. Board member George Layman said that a special committee which he chaired found that the main reason Hitchcock had been declared a non-resident was that he went back to Washington, his original residence, one summer to work. However, Layman noted that Hitchcock maintained an Oregon residence and paid Oregon in come tax during this period Layman said the committee felt too much weight had been given to his return to Washington. He also said that in uns case u wouiu be inadvisable for the State Sys 11cm to disagree ffltn me in\ arm I motor vehicle agencies.
