Will lift research restrictions
Reagan plans may win University friends
By JEFF BAKER
Of the Emerald
Getting the federal
government’s nose out of
higher education may win Ron
ald Reagan some new friends
on campus, one University
professor believes.
Political science Prof. Har
mon Zeigler says Reagan’s
plans to remove many federal
restrictions from research
grants will cause university
faculty around the country "to
stand up and shout hooray.”
“They’ll be astonished to find
Reagan's interested in their
plight.”
The problem of restrictions
has grown dramatically in the
last decade, Zeigler says. The
government has moved univer
sity research from grants to
contracts, requesting specific

problem-solving rather than the
basic research universities
traditionally engage in.
This has resulted in "exces
sive accounting of our own
time," Zeigler says.
"The federal government
comes in with pre-conceived
notions of how a study should
be conducted. Our research is
damaged by uniformed bur
eaucrats who don’t know what’s
going on.”
Many faculty members share
Zeigler’s belief that "I know
better what needs to be
studied.”
The University Assembly
passed a motion last week de
claring that Office of Man
agement and Budget regula
tions requiring “unnecessary”
information on federal contracts
be changed.
Reagan’s plan to abolish the
Department of Education won’t
alter the federal government's
educational role, Zeigler says.
“Federal education expeden
ditures amount to only 8 or 9
percent of the total education
budget. A cabinet office is sym
bolic and Reagan is interested
in desymbolizing,” Zeigler says.
"He’ll probably try to reduce it
beneath cabinet status — to
something like the National
Science Foundation. There’s
not a lot he can do anyway.”
Reagan’s Secretary of
Education appointee, Terrel
Bell, probably won’t interfere
individually in policy, Zeigler
says. Bell, former U S. Commis
sioner of Education under Ge
rald Ford, once testified before
a Congressional committee on
the need for a cabinet-level
department of education.
Tuition tax credits for private
schools are sure to be a hot
educational issue under
Reagan, Zeigler says. A bill in
troduced last session by Sen.
Daniel Moynihan, D-N.Y., and
Sen. Bob Packwood, R-Ore.,
would allow parents of children
attending private schools to
deduct the cost on their income
tax return.
The argument behind the bill
is that those sending their chil
dren to private schools pay
twice — first when they pay
public school taxes and second
when they pay private school
tuition.
Reagan supports the propo
sal, claiming it would maximize
individual choice.
Public schools officials are
“predictably scared to death,”
Zeigler says.
Zeigler points out the
proposal favors upper-middle
class families because only
those above a certain income
level fill out long-form,
itemized-deduction income tax
forms.
