Lieuallen sings new tune; now fighting further cuts By GREG WASSON Ol the Emerald SALEM — Every two years, they do a dance in Salem known as the Higher Education Shuf fle. And the only group that can play the right kind of music is the Ways and Means Subcom mittee Three. For the past few sessions, Chancellor Roy Lieuallen has done most of the calling, but one member of the band, Sen Frank Roberts, D-Portland, says the budget squeeze has changed the roles. "The Legislature, and more specifically the Ways and Means Committee, has got to do a more vigorous job of inves tigating," said Roberts. "It's got to demand a real analysis from higher education. "This time I think we’re going to have to lay down some dic tates to tell them to get their house in order." And. in fact, it would appear the committee already has caused Lieuallen and the state higher education board to move from the offense to the defense. In a January interview, Lieuallen talked about the governor’s proposed budget being insufficient. He proposed finding additional revenue by cutting the level of property tax relief and said he was deter mined to plead his case in spite of the obvious question: How can the pleading be effective? “I don't know,” Lieuallen said, "but I do know somebody had damn well better try. I'm not willing to say because it's a dif ficult job we had ought to ac cept the reality of 30-percent tax relief and let everything else go to hell.” A month later, Edward Harms Jr., president of the state board, listed for the House Education Committee the inadequacies of the governor’s recommenda tion. He warned the committee that the appropriations for the library acquisitions, building maintenance and equipment replacement were insufficient. "These are only examples of serious problems that have been with us for at least five years,” Harms said. "We have not been able to approach a solution. Rather, our position continues to deteriorate.” However, in the four months Architecture dept, prepares for review The architecture department is preparing for an accreditation visit May 10-13. A four-member team from the National Architecture Accreditation Board, composed of architects from outside Oregon, will conduct the review. Review team members in clude Bill McMinn, dean of Mis sissippi State's architecture school, Joseph Esherick, chairer of the University of California at Berkeley’s archi tecture department, Gerald Weisbach. San Francisco ar chitect and attorney, and Daniel Freidman, architect and Univer sity of Wisconsin at Milwaukee professor. In addition, Eugene architect Richard Williams and Portland architecture student Bill Church will observe the review. The team will meet Sunday with architecture and allied arts dean Robert Harris and archi tecture department head Jerry Finrow for an overview of the department. Throughout the visit, the team will evaluate curriculum revision plans, meet with students in dividually and in studio settings TEA HOUSE Open Daily 4:30-10:00 PM Beer & Wine Served Experience the Best Hunan & Szechuan cuisine from the heartland of China Next to the Mayflower Theatre 786 E. 11th 343-5866 and attend midterm project reviews The school is reviewed for accreditation every five years, and Finrow says he forsees no problems with the upcoming review.

And when the sub committee began hearings Thursday, the two were told that even the governor's proposal might be unattainable. For Gov. Atiyeh’s budget to balance, a constitutional requirement in Oregon, some $240 million in additional taxes must be approved. "In my honest opinion," said Sen. Ed Fadely, D-Eugene, "the most you’re going to get is about half of the additional taxes the governor has proposed." No longer is Lieuallen talking about additional money for higher education. "My concern now is for the governor's budget," he said. .Need a place next fall?. Sign up with us now to be sure of finding what you want We can guarantee you a place near campus.
