12 MAIL TRIBUNI, McdfonJ, Or.. W.dntidjy, October 29, 1958 Board of Education Accepts Set of OTI Recommendations Portland -UPD- The State Board of Education has adop ted a set of recommendations regarding Oregon Technical Institute at Klamath Falls, some of which disagreed with a recent report on OTI pre pared in a survey by Dr. W. R. Flesher of Ohio State Uni versity. The recommendations will be sent to a meeting of the State Board of Education in Salem for inclusion in joint recommendations to the gov ernor. The recommendations by the Board included: 1. The Board, believes a program of collegel level tech nical institute education is de sirable in Oregon. 2. The Board does not feel qualified to make recommen dations on vocational educa tion. Transitional Period 3. The Board does not feel that authority over the OTI program should be transfer red away from the Board of Education, which devised and administers it. 4. However, if such a trans-' fer of authority is ordered by the Legislature, the Board feels a two - year transitional period is needed and should not become effective before July 1, 1961. 5. In this transitional period the Board would review and adjust the instructional pro gram at OTI, study locational problems "on a broad basis" and determine a sound build ing and student housing pro gram. Dr. Flesher's recommenda tions included formation of seven "educational center dis tricts" for vocational schools;! removal of most of OTI from Klamath Falls for re-location at Oregon State College; re moval of vocational training jin high schools, and transfer to the Board of Higher Edu cation jurisdiction for the vo cational program. The Board was told some six million .dollars would be asked of the 1959 Legislature to rebuild OTI at Klamath Falls. This has received the approval of the Legislative Wnterim Committee on Educa tion, which also seeks trans fer of OTI to the Board of Higher Education. Would Defend Program John R. Richards, chancel lor, predicted the Board of Education would strongly de fend its OTI program; seek to retain jurisdiction over the school and press for money to rebuild it at Klamath Falls He said there were indications the Board of Education would not follow the Flesher report in its presentation to the gov ernor and Legislature. Dr. R. L. Kleinsorge, chair man, said he could not agree with the vocational center plan. He said it could lead to "scrapping the Board's statewide extension program and ending the move toward community colleges." Richards told the Board Monday that Oregon State is not in favor of transferring technical courses from OTI to the Corvallis school. Portland (UPD The State board of Higher Education has approved appointment of Dr. John Engelbert Dunphy as professor and chairman of the department of surgery at the University of Oregon medical school.
