Chancellor office move examined by committee By Ingrid Petersen Emerald Reporter A recently appointed State Hoard of Higher Education com mittee is researching the pros and cons of relocating the state system chancellor’s office. The three-member committee is considering locations in Portland and Salem as well as its present location in Eugene. State board President James Petersen said now is a par ticularly good time to examine the issue because of current chancellor William “Bud” Davis’ resignation, which is ef fective June 30, 1988. “Once you settle a chancellor down, you don’t want to move him," Petersen said. Petersen has said the location of the chancellor's office should be reviewed every time a new chancellor is selected, accor ding to Wilma Foster, the state board secretary. Salem and its central business office, now the Controller's of fice. to the Oregon State Univer sity campus in Corvallis. The state board originally stipulated the chancellor should be in an academic en vironment, according to University Archivist Keith Richard. At that time “the University was the only one that was a comprehensive university,” Richard said. In addition, the state board wanted to protect the office from Salem's political influence, he added. Between 1959 and 1982, the issue has come up every legislative session except two. However, this is the first time a committee has been appointed to research possible relocation sites. Petersen released a statement listing the advantages and disadvantages of each site. The statement said Eugene is advan tageous because it is located on a university campus, but it is an hour away from the state capital: Salem is closer to the political action, but that might politicize higher education; and Portland is the state center of commerce and trade. “Higher education could communicate better with state government in Salem because it is the hub of state government." Petersen said. However, many people fear higher education would become politicized if the chancellor’s office were to be relocated in Salem, he added. “The reality of it is that it is somewhat politicized,’’ Petersen said. "In Eugene we have it located on a university campus,” which a lot of people like, he added. In 1933, the state board mov ed the chancellor's office to Eugene from the state capital in "I think it is very disruptive. Far above that, it is important for the chancellor's office to be on a campus," Foster said. "It is not a cheerful thought to uproot families and homes." Moving the chancellor’s of fice staff would be one of the major costs of relocating, accor ding to state board member John Alltucker. The chancellor’s of fice has a staff of 56 with an an nual payroll of more than $2 million. "The state system can’t afford to move the chancellor around because money in Oregon for education is so limited in the first place," Richard said. The house the chancellor cur rently resides in was a gift from the Campbell Church to the University, intended as a residence for either the univer sity president or the chancellor, according to Richard. If neither the president nor the chancellor chooses to live there, the house automatically reverts back to its original owners, who are descendants of Prince Lucien Campbell, the University’s fourth president, Richard said. slmu One way to get real Mexican food The other way: Mexican food bar Fountain Court Cafe LETTER PERFECT 300 Erto Memorial Union. 10:00-1 00 M-F 686-5511 • TYPESETTIHG*PASTE-UP*LAYOUT»DESIGN» PMT'S*TRANSPARENCIES RESUMES Qlva your rooumoo a protoaalonal look toy having II typoool at LETTER PERFECT GRAPHICS. 300 EMU 686 5511
