New math requisite delayed Budget problems have affected the University Assembly’s decision-making The Assembly approved 88-36 the curriculum committee s motion to defer until 1983 a mathematics proficiency requirement for a ba chelor of science degree. Assembly members approved the motion after mathematics professors Lewis Ward and Ivan Niven added the words “for budgetary rea sons” to the motion. Thelma Greenfield, the curriculum commit tee's chairer, made the motion at the University administration’s request. Although Richard Hill, provost for academic affairs, said the administration fully supports eventual institution of a math requirement, the coming biennium’s financial outlook makes insti tuting the requirement next fall impossible. The Assembly approved the requirement in November 1979 If Gov. Vic Atiyeh’s budget proposal is ap proved by Legislature, Hill said the University will have to eliminate 28 teaching positions, 17 clas sified positions and about 28 graduate teaching fellow positions. In view of those cuts, Hill said "it’s not ap propriate at this time to institute a requirement that could cost up to $90,000 in 1981-82 and $130,000 by 1982-83." Hill obtained the cost estimates from the College of Arts and Sciences (CAS). However, Hill said, the requirement will be instituted as soon as financial constraints let up. In other business, Assembly members referred the curriculum committee s motion on course, cluster and procedural graduation requirements to a joint study by the CAS’s cur riculum committee and the Assembly's cur riculum committee. Geology Prof. Harve Waff, who also is on the CAS’s curriculum committee, made the referral motion. wi fra* fryi Wi fratl frytl ryyr rfaii rr+vi ry^n I U-»Ai X+Ai UffifJ UfffJ X*X X*A, X?Al Jk. ti ry#r S-»r *f#ti -r+irt ry+xi nr+ti ff»ti rr+ii fr«r rr+ir >y#ti >+xi iy+yi i>+yi rr»Yi iy#Sn rryr rrtftl frail frail trail frail trail frail frail ry#r Available now in The Book Department upstairs at the UO Bookstore $2.95 y U.*>y u*A4 iv*fi kXAfj Uk*Ai uftfj uSfj Pftjl USjJ ijftjj Uftfi UftfJ iKBfi ufffr IX»AJ u^*fj uPUy j&fj Uk«Uy u*aj y&fj lx«aj tx®x rr&\ rr+Yi ryyi rfyi fryi Wi frj»Vi rr« BOOKSTORE 13th & Kincaid Mon-Fri 8:15-5:30 Sat 10:00-2:00 Textbooks 686-3520 • General Books 686-3510 • Supplier 686-4331 3E2!l!LZfflLaEmaEJ!Ka&3SJEa!U3BJI5Z3!Sa!LZ!^^ U»XJ lA*A, w3u] uftfl Jkftii !>•• daily 'emerald The Oregon Daily Emerald is published Monday through Friday except during exam week and vacations, by the Oregon Daily Emerald Publishing Co at the University of Oregon, Eugene.
