Advising System Needs Attention

By FRANK BROWNING

Kernel Associate Editor
Some 3600 freshmen, all card
punched and designated by five

digits, are compressed in the
filing quarters of the University
registrar's office.
If past figures are valid indicators, in a year the number
of cards should be slashed by
half, and 50 percent of the freshman class will have failed.
Why they failed, their background and study habits lead

ing up to that failure, and the
course programs they could not
pass are all related to what
A&S Dean Paul Nagel calls "one
of the areas most seriously in need

of attention and improvement:
academic advisement."
However the advisement of
these 3,600 students, many of
whom are either not prepared
for college work, carry too heavy
course loads, or spend too little
time on their courses is only
one dramatic part of the University's advisory system.

London Students Seek
To Block New Director,
By MARSHALL BLOOM
The CollefUte Preti Service
Director
LONDON-- A
campaign to prevent the newly-name- d
of the London School of Economics from assuming his post next
September has been started by the school's student body.

Opposition to the appoint
ment of Walter Adams is based
on his conduct as principal of
the multi-raciUniversity College at Salisbury, Rhodesia, since
that African nation's Unilateral
Delaration of Independence from
Britain last November.
The attack began this week
with a mimeographed pamphlet
published by the L. S. E. Socialist Society and quoting extensively from three recent reports
on the college by faculty members and outside observers.
But at the Student Union
meeting Oct. 21, the campaign
was adopted by the student body
as a whole. By a vote of 425
to 10, the Union "seriously questioned" Adams' appointment and
instructed the Union President
"to obtain within 18 days a
reply to the serious criticisms
contained in the reports. If the
Union considers the replies unsatisfactory, it will oppose his
appointment."
Since Adams' refusal to reply
to student grievances or meet
with student committes in Rhodesia is one of the criticisms
against him, the Union does not
expect a direct response. In the
meantime, however, some students are working to bring faculty
al

opposition into the open, hoping
that pressure from that quarter
can force Adams' resignation.
Specifically,

Adams

is

op-

posed for allegedly giving in to
racist pressures which proceeded
to strip his Rhodesian college
of racial equality and have diluted academic and political freedom there. He has also been
attacked for a lack of administrative skill and effeciency, including procrastination about
major decisions and what the
pamphlet called "extreme isolation from staff and students."
The three reports agree that
Adams, and therefore the university, voiced no public opposition when: Rhodesian police prohibited all campus gatherings
of three or more persons at University College except for "bona
fide lectures;" nine staff and ten
students were arrested and either
deported or imprisoned; students
and staff were searched and intimidated by police; known student informers regularly turned
in reports to the government on

Probably there are as many
methods of advising students
academically as there are advisors on campus. Some are good;
some not so good, student affairs
deans admit.
Associate A&S Dean Herbert
Drennen sees the responsibility
for academic advising as lodged
within each department.
Improvement in the overall
advising system strongly depends
upon the department as well,
Drennen believes.
Both he and Dean Nagel hope
to identify through each department those faculty "who have a
definite talent for advising."
According to Nagel a director
of undergraduate studies could
be developed within each department who would work closely
with students in assigning them
appropriate advisors.
"We need to find through
these directors and chairmen of
each department those advisors
who have a definite talent for
advising and would be an important contribution he can
make," Nagel explained.
Academic advising, he says,
is part of a triad of faculty responsibilities which also include
teaching and research. "As important as either of these (teaching and research) is student advisement."
"A way must be found," he
explains "to assure that advising
will be considered as an important faculty contribution."
"As the faculty member understands the terms by which
the University judges his contribution, that judgment must come
to include advisement," he
added.
At present there is no formal
compensation for faculty members who have heavy advising
loads. Theoretically each faculty
member at the University does
some academic advising, but that
is not the case in all colleges.
The College of Agriculture,
reputed to have an outstanding
advisory program, is an example.
"We've operated on the basis
of hiring a selective group of advisors for freshmen and sophomores and a selective group for
majors," former Agriculture As

sociate Dean Stanley Wall said.
"We asked the faculty whether they're interested in doing this.
We think they must be interested
in doing it," he continued.
He explained that the college
has 35 advisors selected from
teaching faculty members.
Each advisor has less than 30
advisees. "We would like to hold
it to 20, though," he said.
There has not been any estra
compensation or course load
lightening for these advisors,
Wall stated.
"From my own experience a

students
person advising
spends about the same time as
he would in teaching a three-hoclass," he said.
Wall, however, admitted that
the small number of students
in Agriculture about 485 and
large number of faculty available
makes the advising problem

easier.

Dr. Warren Walton, associate
dean of Engineering, speaks of a
similar system in his college.
"We now are having some people
pick up extra heavy advising
loads while other academic loads
are reduced for them," he said.
"The advising program has
and will depend upon the degree
to which students want advising.
Whenever they start walking up
and knocking on advisors doors
and demanding it, they can get
it," Walton added.
"To help them get what they
want should be the first yardstick the advisor ought to use,"
Walton said. He feels the advisor's job is then to outline
what the student needs to do to
fulfill his goals.
However he is quick to point
out that a student can easily
"get around" his advisor if he
wants to enough, simply manipulating his cards, or if he chooses,
changing advisors.
As to the question of selecting good advisors "who have
demonstrated talent at advising," that trend has already begun in Engineering as it has
across the University. And it
appears that either directly or
indirectly some sort of compensation for good advising is likely
to result.

Breckinridge

Committee
Formed Here
By MARTIN E. WEBB
Kernel Staff Writer
John Breckinridge, a candidate for governor in 1967, spoke
Tuesday night at a Students
for Breckinridge organizational

meeting.
He said "political factionalism" would occur if such men
as Combs or Chandler, some
of the
names of Kentucky politics, were to be elected.
Breckinridge emphasized that
we will have done nothing but
conjure up the factionalism of
the past. "We will," according
to Breckinridge, "put together
that kind of organizational structure which has been responsible
for this factionalism."
Breckinridge has served as
a legislator, Attorney General
during the Comb's administration, and was elected to the
House of Representatives in 1956
and again in 1958.
He began his talk with a
review of some of the problems
of Kentucky and commented that
he was "tired of hearing that
Kentucky was 49th in this and
48th in that, Kentucky politics
being the damndest." Breckinridge distinguished between two
types of voters in Kentucky, "he

"During the 1966 legislature,

Kinkead said, "Judge Cook did

Gene Snyder in the Republican
primary," he said.

"Judge Cook personally assured Sen. Earle Clements

other members of the assembly

offered the services or his assistant, William Warner, in the

"These things," Kinkead continued, "Judge Cook did and

had determined upon the method
of direct submission of the new
charter to the people."

IFC Considering Change
In Fraternity Bid System

A suggestion to reorganize the
fraternity bidding system was
made in Tuesday night's
Council meeting.
Oscar Westerfield, Phi Kappa
Tau, suggested that the group
consider a system under which
the fraternities take their bid
cards to the IFC office on bid
day. These cards would be
arranged in packets for the
rushees, who then pick them
up and examine them to see
which fraternities had asked them
tojoin.
The rushee then has a period
of several hours to make his
final decision. When he does,
he goes to his chosen house before pledging ceremonies in Memorial Hall.
Under the present system,
each fraternity bids its rushees
at its own discretion. Thus the
rushee knows, theoretically,
which houses want him before
bid day.
This may discourage him from
visiting houses which haven't
bid him as yet, Westerfield said.
Because of this he might stop
going to the house he liked best,
for security's sake.
Westerfield added that the
proposed system would benefit
the smaller houses, and would
eliminate some bid day problems
currently faced by IFC. Often
a rushee puts down three choices,
none of which has extended a
bid. If he is on another frater- Inter-fraterni-

ty

nity's sheet, IFC contacts the
boy and tells him of the situ-

ation.
The representatives took the
matter back to the various chapters for discussion.
Ken Brandenburg, of the dean
of men's office, outlined the rules
pertaining to the fraternities during the Thanksgiving holidays.
The fraternity houses are to
be locked, and no planned
activities are t be held.

Signs Of Life

Because of the steadily increasing emphasis on postgraduate education across the nation, evidence
of an improving graduate program
at the University is encouraging.
The University in the past has
inevitably ranked near the bottom
of the list when it comes to rating
graduate programs.
A recent report by the American Council on Education rated
graduate programs across the nation in six categories: distinguished,
strong, good, adequate plus, marginal to adequate, and insufficient
(the final two rankings were
omitted from the printed report).
The results were not flattering.
UK is mentioned only twice in the
report. The history department and
the bacteriology department both
received an adequate plus rating.
But the future looks bright.
The estimate by the acting graduate dean that this year will witness an increase of 0
percent
number of doctoral degrees
in the
awarded over last year is just one
indication of the budding of a hopefully quality program. Faculty and
student considerations in the form
of fellowships and travel provisions, the increase in available
facilities, an expanding graduate

faculty and rising enrollment are

others.

With the establishment of four
state universities earlier this year,
UK's obligation for providing a
high quality graduate program is
even more important. Murray,
Morehead, Eastern, and Western

are developing programs which will
offer degrees through the master's
level. Ideally, these institutions
will act as "feeders" for the University's doctoral program.

Thus, the University's role is
rapidly expanding and becoming
more prominent. Because of this,
it is more important than ever
before that a quality graduate program be offered.

Eleven times since 1901 when

This year the Nobel prize for

And two researchers were

There is the continuing story, some
say tragedy, of Vietnam. During
the summer months, the Dominican Republic rebellion threatened
the American states. Civil Rights
ate at our nation's insides all year;
halfway across the world, Communist China showed more of its
ugly head.
That is the tempo of the times
in 1966, a year that finds the world
struggling with itself.
There is no peace to prize this
year.

Letters To The Editor

Wisdom, Economy Needed
To the Editor of the Kernel:
Kentuckians Beware! Your University is about to spend millions
of your tax dollars on a misguided
excuse of a building program.
You have seen a preview this
week of the type of misplanning
and misguided efforts University

administrators are capable of. The
University has started its building program with a million dollar
mistake, the buying of the two
motels. Neither of these structures
is much

over five years old, if
that old. They are being bought
to provide space for a building
that was built in 1961-6How
can Kentuckians trust an administration which can not plan five
years ahead to develop a 20 year
plan?
The fact also remains that there
is vacant land not five feet from
these motels. Why not move their
site up a few feet to the open
area up the street or to the Henry
Clay field? Why not? Because the
University had premeditated the
use of those buildings. They, the
Administration, were willing to
mislead the people of Kentucky
and to misuse a million dollars
so they could have office space
whenever they needed it, instead
of planning ahead.
The motels are not a permanent investment; they are to be
done away with like the rest of
the campus. The University is using
the new wealth of the state waste-full- y
2.

and with disregard for the
people. Which is cheaper: to build
an office building on a vacant
lot or to temporarily house a few
administrators in a million dollar
structure which is to be destroyed
in a few years?

This is just one example of
the deliberate deception practiced
by our University. The intelligent

people of Kentucky
it. They will fight a
gram which demands
versity first destroy

will oppose

building prothat theUnir
and then re-

build. All around the University is
the ghetto. Why not use the ghettos
and solve two problems at once?
First, the need for office space,
and secondly, the slums near the
University.
The wisdom of our too nearsighted administrators is at fault.
There is too much to be gained
from the building program. Not
only will there be building contracts, but also destruction contracts which are just as lucrative.
Kentuckians Beware! You are being
used and your, money is being
wasted in a wild orgy of spending, when wisdom and economy
is what is needed.

Too Much Emphasis
After reading Monday's Kernel
and seeing the emphasis placed on
a fraternity's biggest annual fling,
I could not
help but recall a quote
by Pascal. "The sensibility of man
to trifles, and his insensibility to
great things, indicates a strange

inversion."

It is evident that the Kernel
considered the Sigma Chi Derby
relevant enough to UK students to
devote almost a full page to it,
which in my mind only tends to
make Pascal's statement seem most
apropos in today's world.

University Football Coach
Charlie Bradshaw undoubtedly
personifies the majority of the
nation's college football coaches.
To compare his talent on his
present record with the likes of
a Bear Bryant, Bobby Dodd,
and Tommy Prothro would be
a stretch of anyone's imagination, for their likes are few and
far between.
The biggest thing in football
at the University this year has
been the debate over construction of a new football stadium.
Fans were doomed to another
mediocre football season so all
that was left was the stadium
dispute.
These memories are maintained by the alumni surely
d
most of our generation has
in the football mediocrity
for the larger part of our "know
edgeable" football life. It would
be such a waste to build a stadium on a dream or a memory
rather than to allow one to remain a symbol of the real state
of affairs.
The symbol is the University' s football program a program that cannot be discussed
