Chairman Bostrom recognized Professor James Kemp who presented the following Memorial Resolution on the death of Professor Wesley Patterson Garrigus. MEMORIAL RESOLUTION Wesley Patterson Garrigus l909-l985 ”Dr. Wesley Patterson Garrigus, Professor Emeritus of Animal Sciences, passed away April ll, l985. He was born June l5, l909, in Storrs, COnnecticut, where his father was Head of the Animal Husbandry Department. He received the 8.8. degree from the University of Connecticut in l93l, and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Animal Science from the Univer— sity of Illinois in l933 and l935, respectively. Following graduation he served as Assistant Agronomist with the United States Department of Agriculture for two years and then joined the faculty at the University of Kentucky as Instructor in Animal Husbandry. He rose rapidly through the ranks and for 33 years, l94l to l974, served as Pro- fessor and Head or Chairman of the Department under the successive names of Animal Industry Group, Animal Husbandry Department, Animal Science Department and Department of Animal Sciences. For eleven years, l95l to l962, he had a dual appointment, Department Head and Associate Director of the Kentucky Agricultural Experiment Station. He retired from the University in l974 but remained 'active and interested in University and livestock affairs. His most notable post-retirement activity was acting as Curator of the Portrait Gallery of the Saddle and Sirloin Club which was moved to the Kentucky State Fair and *Absence explained -2- Exposition Center in Louisville after the closing of the International Livestock Exposition and Stockyards Inn in Chicago. Dr. Garrigus or Wes, as he was known to his many friends, was an enthusiastic teacher of livestock production and live— stock judging courses and an avid supporter of student activi- ties such as livestock and meat judging teams and the Block and Bridle Club. He had a close relationship with many of his students who sought his counsel many years after graduation. Under his leadership the Department of Animal Sciences grew from a small department that taught mostly undergraduate courses to an internationally known Ph.D. granting department that at times had as many as 90 graduate students. He was proud of these graduate students and kept an up—to-date file on the location and position of each. He was a respected research scientist especially in the areas of forage utilization, feeder calf production, cow and calf management, and use of distiller's by—products in live- stock feeding. His work with forage utilization had a significant influence both nationally and internationally. His work on utilization of by—product feedstuffs which were conducted during and immediately following World War II took on added significance during the recent energy crisis and re— newed interest in alcohol as an energy source. He authored more than l25 scientific and popular articles including a textbook, Introductory Animal Science. His ability to recruit faculty and his rapport with faculty is well known. Many young scientists spent a few years at the University of Kentucky and then moved to significant positions at other universities or in industry. Others stayed and are now leaders in the Department and College. Dr. Garrigus was active in University affairs. He was a member of the University Senate, Senate Council, Graduate Council and numerous University committees. In addition, he represented the University on various national boards and committees including a joint pasture technique committee for the American Society of Animal Production, the American Dairy Science Association and the American Society of Agronomy. He was a member of the Feed Survey Committee of the American Feed Manufacturers Association for several years and served on the Subcommittee on Nutrient Requirements for Beef Cattle of the National Research Council. He was instrumental in forming and served on the Board of Directors of the Kentucky Beef Cattle Association. He provided strong leadership to state and national organizations and received many recognitions for that leader— ship. He was named “Man of the Year“ in Kentucky Agriculture in l950 and l964 and “Kentucky Cattleman of the Year“ in l965. In l968 he was the recipient of the Distinguished Service Award to Agriculture by the Kentucky Farm Bureau Federation. He served as President of the Southern Section of the American Society of Animal Production in l957 and -3- Vice President and President of the American Society of Animal Production (now American Society of Animal Science) in l958 and l959, respectively. He was named a Fellow of the Society in l973 and received its Animal Industry Ser— vice Award in l974. In l983 he was honored by having his portrait presented to the Saddle and Sirloin Club. It now hangs along with that of his distinguished father in the protrait gallery at the Kentucky Fair and Exposition Center and Executive Inn West. Dr. Garrigus was a member of numerous societies and fraternities including Alpha Zeta, Alpha Gamma Rho, Gamma Sigma Delta, Omicron Delta Kappa, Phi Kappa Phi, and Sigma Xi. He was a long time member of the Rotary Club and a faithful and active member of the Second Presbyterian Church. Dr. Garrigus was a devoted family man and is survived by three children - Dr. Robert Garrigus of Murfreesboro, Tennes— see, Mr. Jim Garrigus of Arcadia, California, and Mrs. Jerry (Betty) Baird of Utica, Kentucky — eight grandchildren and one great granddaughter. He enjoyed his family and loved to have them around. During their formative years the family toured much of the United States on family vacations. He and his late wife, Helen, entertained graciously in their lovely home or in the backyard garden in which they took pride. They had a gentle way of making new faculty welcome and of mixing new and old faculty and non-faculty guests in a friendly and informal manner. Dr. Wesley Patterson Garrigus was a teacher, re- searcher, administrator, church and community leader, family man and friend. The University, the Lexington community, and the State of Kentucky are better places as a result of his many contributions ” (Prepared by Professor James Kemp, Department of Animal Sciences) Professor Kemp requested that the Resolution be entered into these minutes and that copies be sent to the Garrigus family. Chairman Bostrom asked the senators to stand for a moment of silence in tribute and respect to Professor Wesley Patterson Garrigus. Chairman Bostrom recognized Professor John Landon who presented the following Memorial Resolution on the death of Professor Gwen Elaine Mead. MEMORIAL RESOLUTION Gwen Elaine Mead “Gwen Elaine Mead, associate professor in the College of Social Work, died April l9, l985, in Olivet, Michigan. A native of Nebraska she earned the A.B. degree in Economics and Anthropology in l966 at the University of Nebraska and -4- the M.S. degree in Social Work in l968 at Columbia University where she also completed some work towards her doctorate. Professor Mead spent l3 years working with the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company in Lincoln, Nebraska and served for a short time as Assistant Director of the Amsterdam Social Service Center, New York City Department of Social Services, before join— ing the faculty of Marywood College Graduate School of Social Work, Scranton, Pennsylvania where she served for three years. Gwen Mead joined the faculty of the College of Social Work, University of Kentucky in the Fall of l97l where she remained at the time of her death. She had been in poor health for several years and had filed for disability earlier in the Spring Semester, l985. Professor Mead taught a variety of graduate and undergraduate courses over the years in the social policy area. She was instru— mental in developing several new courses which were adopted into the curriculum. She served as Chairperson of the Curriculum Com- mittee in l973—74, as faculty advisor to the undergraduate social work student organization, SWA, and as an advisor to International Students. She was instrumental in helping to prepare the first self-study report leading to the accreditation of the undergraduate social work program by the Council on Social Work Education in l974. One of her major contributions to the College was a two- year review, at the Dean's request, of the faculty evaluation pro- cess. Her plan for revision of this process was adopted by the faculty in all its essential points. Gwen Mead served on the University Senate for a number of years and on a joint faculty committee with the Kent School of Social Work, University of Louisville. She served as a regional committee member of the White House Conference on Aging and on Governor Shopp's (Pennsylvania) Human Services Task Force. In l977-78 she spent a sabbatical year in England studying at the Cen— tral Council for Education and Training in Social Work and the London School of Economics and Political Science. Professor Mead was a member of the Council on Social Work Education, the National Association of Social Workers, the Academy of Certified Social Workers, The American Association of University Professors, the Social Welfare History Group, the American Public Welfare Association and the Kentucky Welfare Association. She is survived by two sisters, Polly Mead Lillie of Olivet, Michigan and another sister in Nebraska. Memorial contributions may be given to the Center for Creative Living, l530 Nicholasville Road, Lexington, Kentucky, 40503 in her memory, with notification to Reverend Harold and Polly Lillie, Route 2, Box l44, Olivet, Michigan 49076.“ (Prepared by Professor John Landon, College of Social Work) Professor Landon requested that the Resolution be entered into these minutes and that copies be sent to the family. Chairman Bostrom asked the senators to stand for _5_ - a moment of silence in tribute and respect to Professor Gwen Elaine Mead. The Chairman made the following remarks: “My remarks this afternoon will be blessedly brief. I want to thank you first of all for coming to this special meeting. I really appreciate your indulgence because the items on the agenda are needed to finish out the ragtag ends of the year. Thank you again for coming. I deeply appreciate it. This is my last meeting as Chairman of the Senate Council, and I want to publicly express my thanks to you and the senate especially the Committee Chairpersons who worked so hard all year. I want to also thank Professor Blyton, the parliamen- tarian, Martha, we couldn't do without her, George Dexter, and now Randy Dahl. I especially want to thank Celinda for all her help. It has been a wonderful year. You have all helped a lot with it. Many of you have asked what is happening to the General Studies Committee Report now that it has been presented for— mally to the Senate. It has gone on routinely as any other curricula proposal would to the Undergraduate Council. They have had two meetings, and we have yet to receive their'report. I have been informed that the Undergraduate Council is pretty much in favor of the proposal, and it will be arriving at the Senate Council Office very soon. I may be speaking out of turn, because Professor Canon will be handling the expeditious fu- ture of the proposal. It is my anticipation that it will go to the Admissions and Academic Standards Committee and then to the Senate Council. All those recommendations will come back to you sometime in the Fall. That will be up to Brad Canon and the new Council when that does take place. One of the reasons we have been interested in all deliberate speed is that we would like for it to be as good of a proposal as we could get. We want as wide participation in the University community as we possibly can and that means involving as much of this body as we can. That is where the proposal is at the moment. My last announcement is that this is also Bradley Canon's last meeting as Secretary of the Senate Council. The next time we meet in senate assembly Brad will be chairing this group. You should be advised that his place and my place in two years will be taken by Professor Nilbur Frye from the College of Agriculture. This is a very popular choice, and I am sure you all will enjoy both of those chairmanships.” The Chairman recognized Professor Bradley Canon, Secretary of the Senate Council, for a motion. Professor Canon, on behalf of the Senate Council, recommended approval of the proposal to establish a Department of Physician Assistant Studies, College of Allied Health Professions, and to abolish the Department of Dental Hygiene. Professor Canon said the proposal was basically a departmental reorganization to undergird the changes in degree programs. The program will be operational the first of July. This proposal was circulated to members of the senate under date of April 22, l985. _5_ The Chairman said that a report from a committee needed no second and reminded the senate they were not the final authority, but the proposal would be sent to the President for his recommendation which would then go to the Board of Trustees for their final disposition. There was no discussion, and the proposal, which passed unanimously, reads as follows: Recommendation: The College of Allied Health Professions has recommended that (l) the Department of Dental Hygiene be abolished, and, (2) the Physician Assistant Program be established as the Department of Physician Assistant Studies. Background: These recommendations are a product of the l984 program review of the Department of Allied Health Education and Research which called for a reorganization of various units within the depart— ment. The abolition of the Department of Dental Hygiene is warranted because the B.H.S. program was reestablished as an Associate Degree program in the Lexington Community College in l978. The AHP Department has no students, no faculty with primary appoint— ments, and no courses have been offered for several years. At a recent Board of Trustees meeting, the Board accepted the President's recommendation which was approved by the Senate to establish the Physician Assistant program as a B.H.S. program. The program has been operational for the past ten years within the Department of Allied Health Education and Research. With the establishment of the baccalaureate program, it becomes appropriate to establish the Department of Physician Assistant Studies. The program continues to be accredited by the American Medical Association, has qualified faculty, qualified students, and adequate finances to function as a department. These actions are strongly supported by the College and Chair— man of the Department of Allied Health Education and Research, the Academic Council for the Medical Center, the Senate Com— mittee on Academic Organization and Structure and the University Senate Council. Chairman Bostrom recognized Professor Bradley Canon, Secretary of the Senate Council. Professor Canon, on behalf of the Senate Council, moved adoption of the proposal to insert a third paragraph in University Senate Rules, Section V., 3 l.2, Academic Probation and Suspension. This would allow students suspended from one college to transfer to another college on campus provided they were eligible for transfer under the policies of that college or program. This proposal had been circulated to members of the senate on April l9, l985. There was no discussion and the proposal which passed unanimously reads as follows: Proposal: V., 3.l.2 Students suspended from a college or program because such college or program has requirements more strin- gent than general University requirements, may transfer to another college or program provided they are eligible for such transfer under the policies of that college or program. Rationale: Prior to April 25, l984, Senate Rule V., 3.l.2 consisted of a single paragraph dealing with the definition and signifi- cance of the quality point deficit in the probation and suspension policies of the University. At the Senate meeting on that date, a second paragraph was added to this Rule per- mitting colleges to establish higher standards for probation and suspension if approved by the Senate. Although the minutes of that meeting, as well as other information, clearly indicate that it was not_intended that students suspended from a college be automatically suspended from the University, this is not explicitly stated nor can it be easily inferred from statements elsewhere in the Rules. As a result, students suspended by a college are now subject to suspension from the University even though they have a GPA higher than 2.0. The proposed additional paragraph to this Rule (which is entitled ”Academic Probation and suspension“) should clarify the situation. If the proposal is passed, it is intended that the language relating to probation and suspension elsewhere in the Rules will be codified to clearly reflect the distinction between college/program, probation/suspension and University probation/ suspension. Further it is intended to place in the Rules all policies of programs or colleges relating to probation or suspension which have been passed by the Senate. Implementation Date: Immediate. The Chairman recognized-Professor Canon for the third action item. Professor Canon, on behalf of the Senate Council, moved adoption of the proposed recommendation to the administration to alter the Governing Regulations, also cited in University Senate Rules, Section V., 4.l.7. Professor Canon said the proposal would allow UK faculty members to pursue advance degrees at the University so long as they were not in the discipline in which they are employed or hold academic rank. He said the Graduate Council had reported to the Senate Council their recommendation, the Senate Council approved the wording, and the proposal came from the Senate Council. This proposal was circulated to members of the senate under date of April 22, l985. The floor was opened for discussion. Professor Rea moved an amendment to delete the words ”at the University” in the second paragraph. The amendment was seconded by Professor Olshewsky. Professor Rea felt the proposal discriminated against faculty members getting degrees at Kentucky as opposed to those getting degrees elsewhere. Professor Lyons wanted to know if there were other positions for faculty members seek— ing degrees at other universities. He did not see how someone could work half—time at UK and receive a degree elsewhere. He felt the original proposal was aimed at —8— faculty members wishing to take advance degrees at the University of Kentucky. He wanted to know whether there were other provisions that governed the behavior of those wanting degrees at another university. The Chairman said there were very clear provisions about meeting classes. Professor Eakin said his department had just gone through the problem of the definition of qualifying examinations. He wanted to know if “qualifying examination“ was well defined at any other institutions. Dean Royster felt that generally the qualifying exam was well defined but at the department level there were sometimes arguments. Dean Royster felt if ”at the University” was deleted, the University of Kentucky would be telling other institutions what their rule should be for a faculty member from UK studying at their institution, and he did not think the senate could do that. Professor Rea said it merely applied to the work load of a faculty member at the University of Kentucky and had nothing to do with another university. Professor McMahon thought it was strange to have an amendment to the amendment to the rules when the provision that originated on the senate floor was to facilitate faculty members who do not hold Ph.D.'s. He felt the proposal was going to make it more difficult for faculty members from UK to get a Ph D. Professor Thrailkill said all universities did not have the rule as UK does of having one year full—time before and after the qualifying exam. He did not know how this would be interpreted at another university. Professor Neil agreed with Dean Royster and felt the senate was passing rules about UK's governing academic matters. He felt the amendment was a limitation on the work load a faculty member could carry and that ought to be an administrative regulation. Professor Olshewsky wanted to know if the proposal was to be a restriction on em— ployment at the University of Kentucky or was it to be a restriction on academic programs. If the restriction as stated had to do with employment at the University of Kentucky, it did not have any restrictions on employment elsewhere. He assumed the proposal did not have any restrictions on graduate programs. Professor Neil felt Professor Olshewsky was incorrect in saying the proposal was not a restriction on employment because the rules state that the student must be a full—time resident at the University the year before and after the qualifying examination. Professor Olshewsky asked for a point of information. He wanted to know if UK had any graduate students who were approved the year before the qualifying exams or the year after the exams who are not in full—time employment. Chairman Bostrom said that was the case in the College of Communications. Dean Royster said the rule was that the student should not be fully employed during that time, but it was hard to check. As far as he knew, there were no students employed full—time during those years before and after the qualifying exams. Professor Kemp felt the senate was missing the point. The original motion was to allow instructors and assistant professors to get degrees and not getting the degree by ”goofing off” or working full-time. The idea was to ease the rule so pro- mising young faculty can get a degree if willing to work half-time. The amendment to strike ”at the University” failed. There was no debate on the main motion. The proposal passed and reads as follows: Proposal: (delete bracketed portion; add underlined portion) V., 4.l.7 Faculty Members as Candidates for Degrees Members of the faculty, except those in the Community .9. College System, having a rank higher than that of instructor may not be considered as candidates for degrees in the discipline in which they are em- ployed and hold academic rank. [or as candidates for degrees above the master‘s degree at the Univer— sity.] Faculty members pursuing degrees above the master's degree at the University may not hold more than a half time work assignment either during the two full-time, consecutive resident semestersgpreceding qualifying examinations or during the two semesters of full-time dissertation study immediately follow- ing the qualifying examination. In response to Senate discussion, the above statement is more specific and less open to various interpretations than the previously proposed statement (circulated under date of 28 Feb— ruary l985.) The Graduate Council was unanimous on the recommended work load assignment during the semesters of full—time residence preceding the qualifying examinations and felt that a similar work load assignment on the two semesters succeeding the qualifying examination would encourage faculty working to- ward doctorates to complete the doctorate as quickly as possi— ble. Rationale: The current proscription of degree pursuit beyond the master's level is unrealistic and deprives the institution of potential intellectual ferment which attends advanced educational activity across disciplinary lines. As the current rule/regu— lation stands, a faculty member who wishes to pursue an advanced degree must leave the institution, either through leave of absence or sabbatical leave. This would seem to deprive the institution of potential inter-disciplinary activity which could be beneficial in light of recent trends toward development of inter—disciplinary research centers. In fields such as medical technolgy the number of persons with earned doctorates is limited. Therefore, in recruitment, it is a definite advantage to have a doctoral program as an option for incoming faculty. In colleges such as Allied Health, where the teaching load is excessive and where greater emphasis is being placed on re— search, the availability of a doctoral program is essential to tenured and untenured faculty. Since the University is a microcosm of colleges and since there are many departments in those colleges, it is no longer inbreed- ing to earn a degree in another college because a totally different faculty would be teaching the ”student faculty.“ -10- Other prestigious universities have become aware of the advan- tages of having doctoral preparation for their faculty given within their institutions. One example is the University of Illinois at Urbana—Champaign. If we believe in the quality of our graduate programs and fur- ther, if we want to strengthen them, how better to do it than by promoting our graduate programs and by accepting our faculty who are theoretically already screened and selected for quality? The Senate Council has solicited information from the Univer— sity in general about the apparent need for such a modification. Our responses indicate that as many as forty (40) current faculty could be interested in advanced study of this type. In addition, a number of persons in the University community have written strong endorsements of this proposal. Last, but certainly not least, the Visiting Committee Report of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) made a specific suggestion to the University that this rule be relaxed. This proposal is offered with the endorsement of the Senate Council. The proposal will be sent to the President and then to the Board of Trustees as a modification of the current Governing Regulations. There was no further business, and the meeting adjourned at 3:30 p.m. Randall w. Dahl Secretary, Univeristy Senate DR. WESLEY PATTERSON GARRIGUS Dr. Wesley Patterson Garrigus, Professor Emeritus of Animal Sciences, passed away April 11, 1985.
