Education leaves available on ‘extremely limited’ basis By Ann Portal OtlhtEmtraU Education leaves are now available to University faculty, but Provost Richard Hill says the University will make extremely limited use of the semi-sabbaticals However, 12 faculty at state higher education institutions already have requested the leaves, according to Bill Lemman, the State System of Higher Education's vice chancellor for adminis tration Chancellor Roy Lieuallen has approved the requests from four faculty each at Oregon State University, the Oregon Institute of Technology and the Oregon Health Sciences University, Lemman says No formal requests have yet been made at the University, but there have been two informal requests, Hill says The State Board of Higher Education ap proved the education leaves at its March meeting largely as a money-saving device Faculty who choose the option get a leave with half pay but don’t have to meet the restrictions imposed on faculty taking sabbatical leaves The state board s guidelines do specify that the leave must have an educational purpose Of the faculty taking the leaves so far, more than half are going to complete their doctoral degrees, Lemman says. No limit has been set on the number of faculty who can take the leaves, he says. Hill says the leaves will be allowed at the University only in “rare cases” where the leave is in the best interest of the school, such as securing additional resources such as grants and con tracts. "I don’t even want to encourage that,” he says. Everyone recognizes that the leaves are not in the best interests of the University, Hill says, noting that the faculty is already strapped and the leaves could further drain tight resources. Although he says he doubts the leaves will be used on this campus, he says he doesn't want to rule out the possibility of granting one or two Certain departments won’t be eligible at all, because of the demands on faculty, he says. Lemman says institutions are responsible for deciding whether they can spare the faculty member for up to a year. The state system office inspects the requests only to make sure they meet state board guidelines, he says Musical extends performance Sandy Wilson's musical comedy "The Boy friend" has been extended for two additional performances Friday and Saturday at the Univer > sity Theatre The 1954 Broadway musical, which recreates the era of the Jazz Age and the Roaring Twenties, will begin at 8 p.m on the Robinson Theatre stage on both nights Reserved-seat tickets are available at the University Theatre box office at 686-4191 from noon to 4 p.m Prices are $4.50 for the general public. $2 75 for University students and senior citizens, and $3.50 for other students Wilson’s scores include "I Could Be Happy With You,” “It’s Never Too Late to Fall In Love,” “Perfect Young Ladies,” “Won’t You Charleston With Me,” and the title number "The Boyfriend.” rf" -T- ^ T -‘i* This Recycle Clarification ^ £y%agg. »«sorship for next £Tthat two-year _io T».on.™rVn State University. it was Green that app*» *..»♦« teach Ctaeyssens. a gra^ STE-JSs; vear5AW#<w«« "‘"y.VSTnad been position <>»•* "SL2J asslatant < journals io w»’SJar«" '?* year. was oftared i - 1 concerns abouHba^b^ve[t,5<Kl director. 1 stter it a,re^:^SirJniversity adirmawa »= „ was ££»- «a..no*3&g5,*«;wr.jsys I and tna question lb be ab Mcfadden taystbe I 1 she says —-—_ Marianne Bouquet PkisPicfct 1049 wmarnette ANDERSON'S SHOE SALE!
