NEWS BRIEF
Federal agency to grant
$560,969 to University
The University will receive
$560,969 from the U.S. Department
of Health and Human Services to
study basic human cellular trans
missions that could be relevant to
the future of trauma treatment.
Dr. William Roberts of the Universi
ty's biology department will head the
new project, and the grant is es
timated to directly create eight new jobs.
U.S. Sens. Gordon Smith, R-Ore.,
and Ron Wyden, D-Ore., made the
announcement Monday. The money
will be used to cover the costs of the
Presynaptic Mechanisms at Ribbon
class Synapses Research Project,
which examines cell communica
tion from one cell to another.
"Scientific discovery and biomed
ical advancement is a sector of the
economy that has incredible poten
tial in Oregon," Smith said in a press
release. "Investing federal dollars di
rectly into Oregon's higher educa
tion will pay big dividends in our
economy down the road."
Researchers said they hope to
learn more about cell communica
tions, specifically in human ears and
eyes, which will help pave the road
to learning how to prevent and treat
cell trauma.
"These funds will create jobs and
enhance the University of Oregon's
already stellar research programs,"
Wyden said in the press release. "I'm
pleased to see Oregonians get the
support they need to make invalu
able discoveries in the science and
health care fields."

SALARY
continued from page 1
"The more the state cuts, the
more important the president's per
formance becomes," he said.
Student reaction to Frohnmayer's
salary is mixed.
Even though senior Jamie Tripp
is not familiar with Frohnmayer's
responsibilities, she said she feels
his salary is too high.
"I just personally don't think it's
necessary for anyone to make over
$100,000," she said.
Senior Gabrielle Guidero said she
doesn't have a problem with the
salary if other university presidents
generally make the same amount of
money.
"I assume his salary reflects the
industry, the market for college
presidents," she said. But Guidero
added that during this time of
higher education cuts, she would
have a problem if Frohnmayer
received a raise.
Vice President for Student Affairs
Anne Leavitt said she thinks
Frohnmayer earns every penny he
makes.
"I believe that the responsibilities
of the university president today are
huge," she said. "It is an extremely
challenging job."
