L. Background of Policy on International Teaching ssistants
(Information Only) (PR 5C)
At the request of President Singletary, Chancellor Gallaher reviewed
the forthcoming new Policy on International Teaching Assistants. He stated
that the policy, which will apply to those for whom English is not the
native language, was formulated by a committee of faculty and students,
examined by the deans, approved by the Senate Council and by the three
Chancellors before forwarding to the President. He explained that the
policy has two main objectives: (1) to ensure that teaching assistants be
proficient in spoken English, and (2) to ensure that they be given adequate
training and supervision. Chancellor Gallaher then listed the following
procedures which will be incorporated in the policy:
The Chancellor of the Lexington Campus will appoint a committee each
year that will recommend to the Vice Chancellor for Academic
Affairs, Lexington Campus, on the qualifications of each candidate
to teach. The committee will organize and coordinate an orientation
each year prior to the beginning of the fall term. The committee
will also direct the training, screening, evaluation and monitoring
of all international teaching assistants.
The Orientation Committee will develop criteria for the screening of
all international teaching assistants and these will include
interviews and test scores, i.e., Test of English as a Spoken
Language.
The Orientation Committee will recommend to the Vice Chancellor for
Academic Affairs on the qualifications of each international
teaching assistant to teach. Those not approved for teaching
assignments shall be assigned duties not requiring classroom student
contact; the departmental units will pick up such costs; and when
this occurs, the Orientation Committee will recommend a program of
remediation, following which the committee will reexamine the
international teaching assistant.
The policy requires international teaching assistants to be on
campus as early as August 16 for orientation activities and
testing. In addition to the testing, interviewing, and monitoring
the teaching assistants, the Orientation Committee will be
responsible for reviewing any special departmental programs that
have to do with training and orienting their teaching assistants and
for monitoring the professional performance of the teaching
assistants.
Chancellor Gallaher concluded his remarks by stating that he feels
this is an excellent program that represents the highest level of
participation and agreement by faculty, students, and graduate school
representatives. Mr. Hershey made complimentary remarks about the content
of the new policy. (See PR 5C at the end of the Minutes.)

M. Change in Name of an Educational Unit (PR 6A)

the end of the Minutes.)
N. Revision of the Bylaws, Rules and Regulations of the Medical
Staff, University Hospital (PR 68)
On motion made by Mr. Hershey, seconded by Mr. Jones and passed, the

the end of the Minutes.)
0. Information Items

John R. Silber, President of Boston University, who sent a check for $1,000

University of Kentucky.
The second letter was from David I. Carter, Associate Vice President

round of applause.

Z. Report of Presidential Search Committee
Mr. McCowan, Chairman of the Presidential Search Committee,
presented the following report of the Committee:
On July 24, 1986, the Search Committee began its awesome task of
finding a replacement for Otis Singletary. The Committee had only
one objective: to find the individual who was the most qualified
candidate available. The position was advertised in the Chronicle
of Higher Education and announced to 92,000 alumni through a letter
in the Kentucky Open Door. Invitations for nominations and
applications also were announced through a memorandum to 3700
University faculty, administrators, and professional staff, and
through individualized letters to presidents and chancellors of 178
universities and colleges, to the Chairmen of the Advisory Boards of
the University of Kentucky Community Colleges, to the members of the
Board of Directors of the University of Kentucky Development
Council, and to the members of the University of Kentucky National
Alumni Association. Thirty-five meetings were held with 1,000
man-hours devoted to screening and interviewing candidates. The
Committee has over 160 files on individuals who were considered.
Many outstanding individuals were interested in the presidency of
the University of Kentucky, and the Committee felt this was due to
the recognition the University is beginning to receive throughout
the nation under the leadership of Otis Singletary. The 10-member
Committee conducted its search in accordance with the procedures
outlined in the Governing Regulations. Three faculty members of the
Committee were in attendance and recognized: Mary Sue Coleman,
Robert Guthrie and Wilbur Frye, along with student trustee Donna
Greenwell. The Committee considered many outstanding candidates, in-
cluding chancellors and presidents of some top universities. The
process was narrowed to the two most outstanding candidates who met
with the Trustees, representative members of the faculty, students
and administrators of the University. One was Dr. Charles Wethington.
- 10 -
He and his wife Judy are great Kentuckians. His contribution to the
University has been tremendous. The Community College System of the
University provides a great education for those who might never have
a higher education, and Charles Wethington has been a crucial part
of that System. His leadership has been a key reason that we can
point to that segment of the University with a great deal of pride.
He is a gentleman, a scholar, and carries the respect and admiration
of many throughout the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
The Search Committee's other candidate is Dr. David Roselle. Many
of you have already seen his r6sume. He is University Provost at
Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. iHe has a B.S.
from West Chester State College and a Ph.D. from Duke University.
He is 47 years old and has a lovely wife Louise whom many of you
have met, and two children. The Committee was impressed with his
administrative record and with his style and relationship with
administrators, students and faculty. The record he has achieved as
an academic officer of a fine state university has been
outstanding. He has a clear understanding of the role and mission
of land-grant universities. The Committee was equally pleased that
his teaching and administrative experience has been in three
land-grant universities: Maryland, LSU and VPI. Dr. Roselle has
achieved recognition for his scholarly and research background. The
Committee received tremendous quality recommendations from his peers
at Virginia Tech and elsewhere. His leadership role has been
important in mathematical societies and other areas where he has
particular interest. He has a reputation as a hard worker with a
high level of energy and as a proven problem solver. The Committee
was also impressed with his ability to gain research support from
business and industry, and with his vision of a partnership role
between universities and industry. Dr. Roselle is recognized for
his leadership role in advancing Virginia Tech to a prominent level
of expertise in communications. He has been the keynote speaker for
IBM sponsored conferences throughout the United States and the Far
East. He will soon be going to Rome to speak at an IBM-sponsored
conference on VPI's use of a major computing system for various
campus activities. C&P Telephone is sponsoring an advertising
program on communications featuring Dr. Roselle and his work in
education in Newsweek, Time, U.S. News and World Report, Fortune,
Sports Illustrated, Chronicle of Higher Education, etc. The bottom
line of this all comes down to the fact that we are in a world now
where change is occurring in a geometric progression. More things
are taking place in five years now than took place in 20 years
before and everybody who is an expert on this subject says that
increasing change is going to take place and that the universities
especially should be ready to take advantage of such change. Under
the leadership of Otis Singletary, and with the support by Governor
Collins and the Legislature, the University is in a position poised
for the future. The Committee feels Dr. Roselle has the vision and
the ability to establish the strategy and implement the plan to move
the University into the 90s. Now is the time and place for this
man at the University. The Search Committee recommends Dr. David
Roselle as the new President of the University of Kentucky,
effective July 1, 7987.
- 11 -
Professor Wilson moved that Dr. Roselle be chosen to succeed Dr.
Singletary as the next President of the University of Kentucky. The
motion, which was seconded by Mr. Stricker, was voted on and unanimously
carried.
President Singletary expressed appreciation to the Search Committee
for its long, hard and valuable work and for its recommendation of a strong
and able candidate. He commended the Board members for their selection of
David Roselle and urged them to give the new president the strong support
afforded him during his tenure. He wished David and Louise Roselle a very
long, happy and fruitful tenure at the University, a University he said
they will come to know and love. President Singletary pledged his support
in making the transition period as smooth and accommodating as possible.
He stated that the new president is coming to the University at an
interesting and historic time. President Singletary expressed his deep
affection for the University and what it has meant and will continue to
mean to him, and stated he would continue to support the University in
every possible way. President Singletary was given a round of applause.
Chancellor Wethington told the Board that he was honored and pleased
to be among the finalists. He indicated his disappointment that he was not
selected but stated that David Roselle would have his complete support.
Chancellor Wethington was given a standing ovation.
Dr. and Mrs. Roselle were invited to join the meeting. Dr. Roselle
thanked the Board of Trustees for their vote of confidence, and stated it
will be an honor to succeed Dr. Otis Singletary, one of the country's most
respected and senior administrators of a major university. He thanked
Chancellor Wethington for his kind comments. Dr. Roselle told the Trustees
that probably they had given him the greatest honor in his life and that he
would do his best to justify it.
Mrs. Roselle stated she was pleased and excited to be moving to
Lexington and the University of Kentucky. She indicated she would serve in
any way that may be appropriate.
AA. Meeting Adjourned
There being no further business to come before the Board, the
Chairman adjourned the meeting at 3:13 p.m., E.S.T.
