Pres. Olum's secretary
handles the pressure
By Sandy Johnstone
Of the Emerald
Chris Leonard writes a note tell
ing herself to look up the minutes
of a Faculty Senate meeting,
answers the phone and makes an
appointment in the president's
crammed calendar and writes
notes on the mail she will give to
University Pres. Paul Olum to
answer.
Leonard is Olum's secretary, a
pressured job that requires fast
thinking and a solid understan
ding of the University.
"The president's office is always
having crises. Things are always
falling apart," says Olum. "Cod
knows what will happen next. But
Chris can handle it."
"She knows what's needed,"
says Muriel Jackson, assistant to
the administrator. "Chris can pro
vide that extra measure of support
that smooths the edges of
responsibility."
Leonard says you get used to
the pressure.
"You come to work and have
the day all planned out, but it
never works out that way," she
laughs. "You have to be flexible,
to shift priorities. To be poised
and not let things get to you. You
can't let the stress get to you."
Much of Leonard’s job is referr
ing people who call the presi
dent's office to the appropriate
vice president or dean, a task that
requires an intimate knowledge of
the University.
"I need to know what's going
on," says Leonard. "The first
thought is always to call the presi
dent so it's best to be forewarned.
Of course, there are things only
the president can handle. But the
president can't see everyone."
"The person who manages the
president's time must know the
University well and the presi
dent's priorities," says Jackson.
Olum sees all the mail that
passes through the office. "He
does not want to be protected,"
says Leonard. The president's lack
of information about a topic could
be harmful, in fact. For example, if
a professor sees Olum and asks
about a letter recently sent to him,
the faculty member would be very
upset if the president didn't know
anything about it, she says.
Leonard thinks of herself as part
of a team composed of herself, Jan

Medrano, a management assistant
in the President's Office, and
Olum.
"He values your advice," she
says. "He is an informal, team*
person."
Often, Olum will try out his
ideas on her and Medrano.
Leonard often drafts letters to
show to Olum for his approval.
"It's better to have someone a
little away listen to see how it wiUj
strike the public," she says. ^
But Leonard isn't after recogni
tion for her work.
"My job isn't as president — it is
to help him," she says. "If you
want recognition then get out
there and take the flak. It takes a

"I think it will be a major strug
gle to have the delegation of
power to the Senate,” says
Lemert. “It may be a struggle with
no students on the Senate.”
But the number of students on a
more powerful Senate may b^
crucial for many faculty. A
At a hearing last spring, one per*
son said the only reason the
students were allowed to be one
third of the Senate was because
the Senate has no power. "More
than one faculty member at the
meeting laughed in agreement,"
says Lemert.
Prothe intends to introduce a
motion amending the number of
students to 18 and the number of
faculty to 36. Lemert believes the
attempt may fail to achieve
SUAB's objectives.
The motion may pass becuse
people wanting to defeat the
whole plan would vote for it, or if
SUAB antagonizes faculty while
making its cause, it could spur a
motion for zero students, Lemert
says.
"It's better to have student
representation in a body that
means something than one-third
of a body that doesn't mean
much."
