IUPUI extension campus grows up

By LESLIE L. FULLER E ditor in Chief

Columbus, Ind. — Local busi­

ness support and tha Indiana General Assembly were responsible for raising the IUPUI-Columbus building here in Bartholomew County.

Community confidence and student demands have kept its classrooms and laboratories full.

"From 4:30 on we can't offer any more classes because we’re at capacity,* said community re­

lations coordinator Lynn Lucas.

"We're trying to add more classes in the daytime . . . our student body is an adult popula­

tion, but in the last four years the 18-19 year-olds have really increased,* she said.

To outsiders, Columbus brings architecture to mind, not educa­

tion. Within the community though, it’s a different story.

A 1982 capital fund drive resulted in $905,000 worth of pledges from local businesses and individuals; "my recollection is that we had a 98 percent payoff of pledges” said IUPUI- Columbus director Paul R. Bip- pen.

Throughout the campaign, IUPUI-Columbus ran ads three times a week in the Columbus Republic printing names of con­

tributors and educating the com­

munity about its fending needs.

TTte campaign ended with funding for the campus and pride for the community, said Bippen, director since 1977.

“They’ve invested pari of their hard-earned money in the belief it was needed . . . they're follow­

ing their investment to see what kind of payback there is going to be,” Bippen said.

IUPUI-Columbus was intend­

ed and primarily remains a campus for studenU to complete up to two years in any degree

K

igram offered by Indiana or rdue universities through IUPUI.

However, it is now possible to complete a degree in certain pro­

grams without ever enrolling in classes at Indianapolis, Bloomington or West Lafayette.

"If one looks at 120 courses of­

fered in fall and spring semesters, fully three-fourths of them are freshman and eoph- more level courses. Then there’ll be another eight to 10 graduate courses. That leaves 20 percent of courses in Columbus at-junior and senior level,” said Bippen.

Bippen isolates IUPUI- Columbus' two greatest current needs as greater support for its existing programs and the addi­

tion of "resident, full-time facul­

ty."

“We need support for faculty research and for the library. Our

library is woefully understaffed and underfunded.

“Our secondary need is addi­

tional faculty. Faculty truly are the heart of an institution. And we need all the heart we can get,” he said.

IUPUI-Columbus faculty have the same problems that irk their Indianapolis counterparts;

maintaining respectable re­

search levels without adequate library materials and fighting for office space in a crowded en­

vironment.

At budget time, Bippen said, he "talks directly with the ap-

a

riate dean of each school in inapolis” so Columbus fac­

ulty salaries are on a par with in the state capital, pits IUPUI-Columbus’

problems, a "feeling of a need being met” reigns on-campus, Bippen said.

“The good news is we have the finest teaching laboratories in fundamental courses, probably in the state,* he said.

Added Lucas, "our students are still reaping the benefits of a recent expansion.*

Prior to fall 1985, students met in public schools for classes requiring lab use. Today, IUPUI-Columbus has a gleam­

ing chemistry lab, a multi­

purpose lab, a biology-science See C O L U M B U S . Page 8

School o f Science a t crossroads

For years, the Purdue School of Science 38th Street quarters inconvenienced students and faculty, barred most cooperative research arrangements and pre­

vented the school from sharing the relative prominence Michigan Street programs en­

joyed.

With ground-breaking of a Sdenca/Engineering Technology building scheduled to take place within a year and a half, and as the School of Science awaits the appointment of a new dean, it appears the school is at a critical crossroads which could determine future potential and growth.

Some believe the school’s growth hinges upon its ability to build a local network of al lioness and market itself to the com­

munity as an essential asset.

"We do a good job at all levels.

And we can do a much better job getting support from state and local government,” said Charles Schauf, chair of the biology de­

partment since 1986. "We need to communicate to the public just how good we are.”

Can Bayh win state next fall?

By JIM GRIM

Hooaiers who reach voting age in time for the May 3 state pri­

mary have lived under Repub­

lican governors for the past 20 years.

One political analyst from IUPUI said these voters cherish the choice between parties and are offended by Republican a t­

tempts to remove Secretary of State Evan Bayh, a Democratic candidate for governor, from the ballot.

“There are people in this state who are voting for a governor this time who have never lived under a Democrat governor,*

said Brian S. Vargus, political analyst and director of the Pub­

lic Opinion Laboratory at IUPUI. “They want the option to choose to do so.”

The last Democrat to serve as governor of Indiana was Roger D. Branigin from 1965-69.

Why, after two decades out of office, do Democrats place high

"The School of Science, be­

cause of what it does, should have its own advocate. But we don’t have the kind of visibility to educate the public at large *

Besides building a network of supporters, some Purdue School of Science faculty believe the school should emphasise re­

search.

Today the biology department receives around $1 million an­

nually in research grants.

"When I took the position,"

said Schauf, “we had a third of that. In the long run, research will in fact pay for itself.”

“The fact of the matter is, by any measure the cost per stu­

dent credit hour is lees than it is many places on campus,” said current dean of the School of Science Marshall Yovite. "It does cost more to hire faculty in science . . that’s a fact of life *

To build a competitive, high quality program, it is necessary “ that the Purdue School of Science at Indianapolis receive a bigger piece of the pie at budget time, Yovite said.

See S C IE N C E . Page 22 hopes in Bayh, a candidate who has little experience in public of­

fice, is 31 years old and finds himself legally battling the Republican-controlled State Election Board about hie residency?

“It doesn't matter who it is,*

Vargus aaid. "A credible Demo­

crat has an advantage because of the climate in Indiana over the last eight years.”

'Hie climate, according to Vargus, includes increased dis­

content and mistrust of Indiana government. He baaed this anal­

ysis on the results of several public opinion surveys — almost all of which include some ques­

tions about politics.

“The groundwork has been laid for a ‘time-for-a change’

thing,” the profeasor of sociology said.

Desire for change follows loss of major industry and jobs, people moving out of state, pub­

lic school criticism, the indict­

ment of the state superinten­

dent of public instruction, as well as the head of the depart ment of corrections, end con­

tinued scandals involving the state licenae branches.

"Hooaier voters like fair play,”

Vargus arid. "Far some reason along the way, the Republicans See B A Y H . Page 13

Students quest for culture

Th« quMt far an understanding of American community has students in a course at IUPUI looking at life over three centuries in towns across the country.

For Christine Dodswell, a political science . major, the quest is particularly enlightening be­

cause she grew up 1h England and lived in South Africa before coming with her husband and children to America.

“You need to know the historical background of a culture to really know it," said Dodswell, and American studies minor.

“It (the culture) doesn’t start in a vacuum,*

she added.

As part of their quest, each student chose an Indiana town in 1860 to research. Dodswell selected Madison, a scenic historical town on the Ohio River.

“We are going to find out the formation and structure of the community — at the end of the semester, we will put it all together — and will see what crosses over from one American com­

munity to another.*

Course instructor, Jan Shipps, professor of history, American studies and religious studies, says the quest is to find “the glue that binds*

the people of these communities together.

“We are searching for what makes American communities different from others,* Shipps added. “Hers in America we have people from all different communities arriving on these shores and settling down.

“What was it that allowed some of these com­

munities to gel and others not? How are Amer­

ican communities different because of this?"

This semester, Shipps' etudente are research­

ing Indiana towns by reviewing the 1860 state census recently made available on computer at IUPUI. The Indiana Historical Society and professors at IUPUI collaborated in getting the 1860 census into a computer program — the first prqject of its kind in the country, according to Shipps.

“We are the first to use the 1860 census on the computer,* said Dodswell. “It’s challenging for those of us who never used a computer before, but it’s a wonderful experience. It provides us with the use of pure research."

"A historical context has a major bearing on the communities of America today, which makes this course so interesting and relevant,”

said Dodswell.

Student election results announced

By JULIE EVANS

The result* of th« IUPUI stu- cUnt government election* were announced at the honors ban­

quet last Monday evening.

Moet of the outcomes weren’t at all surprising because of un­

contested races.

Glenda Smith was elected president with 139 votes, and slated vice president, Nathan Brindle, received 136 votes. The Smith Brindle ticket was un­

contested due to the rejection of

Hyun Bowden's petition because of "insufficient verified signa­

tures.*

Linda Profitt and Dana Tread­

well were elected eenatore-at- large with 63 and 68 votes respectively. On* remaining senator-at-large position remains open due to a lack ofinterest.

Brindle, the new vice presi­

dent, will try to fill the empty position with Liberal Arts stu­

dent William Schilling who was defeated by Christine O’Brien in

the only contested race by a vote of 18-12 for divisional senator, said Election Committee Chairman Chris Jennings.

Marjorie Untalan was elected as the senator for the School of Business with 12 votes. The 17 other unfilled divisional senator positions will be appointed by the dean of each school, said Jennings.

The referendum* on IUPUFs day car* and smoking policy both were passed by students at the polls. Eighty-five students

to five voted that the day car*

should be expanded and 68 stu­

dents to 29 voted that the no smoking policy should be amended.

Jennings attributed low voter turnout to the (act that it was not a real contest election.

"There was no real race, and people weren’t really interested in taking the Us* to fill out a ballot," eaid Minings. "The referendum* helped a lot, be­

cause some people voted just for them."

S p e e c h n i g h t w i n n e r : B e t t e r l a t e t h a n n e v e r

Maybe showing up late for class has its advantages.

Elroy Schulenburg, 42, took first place honor* at last Mon­

day’s 35th Speech Night after enrolling in his Cl 10 Funda­

mentals of Speech Communica­

tion class this semester a week and-a-half late.

Schulenburg, who cam* b**k to school to earn a teaching cer­

tificate for high school math, was on* of six students who sur­

vived a semi-final competition April 11 to compete before an audience of fellow Cl 10 stu­

dents and a panel of judges com­

posed of five faculty members from the Department of Commu­

nication and Theatre.

A standing room only crowd of about 500 C110 students and in­

structors crammed into Lecture Hall Room 101 far this semester's competition. Speech Night is conducted each spring and fall semester for students in

E lro y S c h u le n b u rg C110, an introductory speech course.

Schulenburg’* winning speech,

"The Pursuit of the American Dream,” outlined how to make homes more affordable for young

couples by reducing lot sites without sacrificing privacy.

Freshman business major Tracy L. Timbrook took second place with her speech “How to Combat Illiteracy in America,”

and Trad* L. Holt won third place with a speech on how to safeguard the home to protect children from accidental poison­

ings.

Dawn K. McFarland, Steven K. Dalton and Rita Sue Truelove were the remaining finalists.

Before making it to Speech Night, the six finalists were among 37 students who had to face the scrutiny of their peer*

in the semi-finals.

The students in each section of

C110 nominate on* student to compete in the semi-finals, which, unlike the finals, are judged by other C110 students

All told, approximately 300 students parti a pa ted as speaksrs or judges in the semi finals held in the Mary Cable Building.

Attendance low fo r AIDS programs

Students ‘distant from subject’

Last weak’* sparse attendance by students at the various pro­

grams on campus during AIDS Awareness Week came as no surprise to one of the event’s coordinators.

T m disappointed in a general way, but not surprised,” said Wayne C. Olson, director of the Metropolitan Indianapolis Campus Ministry. T v e talked to* more people this weak than I would’ve been able to before, so that’s a plus.”

Tuesday’s panel discussion by local AIDS patient care experts drew between 75 and 100 people, the largest turnout for any of the scheduled events. At­

tendance at the rest of the pro­

grams was “minimal," said Ol­

son.

Olson and Darrell Arthur, coordinator of support services at the Damien Center, were the only two people to attend the week’s final program on Thurs­

day.

*T7iis particular age group (college students) thinks they're going to live forever,” said Genira Stephens-Hotupp, AIDS program manager for the State Board of Health.

"It makes (them) distant from the subject.”

"There will be a time when everybody knows someone that has AIDS, and that’s when the room will fill up," Stephens- Hotupp told the four people who attended her presentation on Thursday.

Those in attendance gathered in a circle for an informal dis­

cussion on the subject of AIDS and the lack of attendance at the week's activities.

Olson told of a woman who came up to him at the informa­

tion booth in the basement of the University Library and said that four male students seated nearby were debating whether or not to walk up to the booth and take some of the handouts available.

"Two of them were saying they should go up and the other two were saying they shouldn’t,”

said Olson. "At least they were discussing the issue."

Many people dismiss the danger of AIDS because they think it is only a problem for certain groups, said Stephens- Hotupp.

"I often wonder how Amer­

icans accepted the idea of dis­

ease, because if we can’t see it in front of us and we don’t have a plan, then it doesn't exist,” she said.

Stephens-Hotupp stressed that behavior, not sexual preference, is the crux of the AIDS issue.

"Not one single person has to catch this disease," she said. “It can be stopped immediately, it is in our control."

High risk behaviors include any sexual activity, whether heterosexual or homosexual, where bodily fluids are ex­

changed and no protection, such as a condom, is used.

Intravenous drug abuse and the exchange of needles is also a high risk behavior.

Group pickets IUPUI for animal rights

Soma 30 p*opU, advocating the ethical treatment of re- eearch animal*, picketed the I.U. Medical Center, on April 21, Animal Right*1 Day.

Hiie ie the firat euch effort by the Inch ana polie baaed group, CHE ETA (Coalition at Hooaiera Encouraging Ethical Treatment of Animal*)' formed in January ofthia year.

CHE ETA preeident Brett Sear*, in an interview the next day, eaid aha waa particularly concerned with vivi cacti on and eaid aha would like to aee it die- continued all together.

Vivieection, defined in Web- ater’a dictionary aa, "a aurgical operation performed on a living animal to atudy the atructure and function at living organa and parta, and to inveatigate the effect* of diaeaaea and therapy*

facility auper- I Reeearch

ia performed in the IU-Medical Center.

Sear* queetioned the validity of courae work uaing vivieection aaying it waa unneceeaary.

“I epoke to aeveral atudenta who told me “yea 1 do get un­

comfortable when I have to do thia (vivieection),’ said Sear*.

She liated eight different alternative* to viviaection aa well aa to any reeearch involving animal a.

Among them are etudiee with human aubjecta, either poet- mortem or neo-mortam; in vitro

■tudiea; mechanical model* and computer aimulation.

During the picket, two CHEETA repreaentativea went and trcfci irifl Hi WiUim

more, the Dean of the School of Dentistry.

Student fumes about losing parking space during IUPUI special events

The fallowing letter u n i tent to the Sagamar* for publication. It wae addretted to Dr. Robert Bogan D.D.S. a member o f the Parking Advieory Committee.

D e a r Dr. Bogan:

I would like to address the subject of one parking inequity specifically. This would be the restriction of student parking at the Natatorium during special events.

Granted, I am proud that In­

dianapolis and the school of IUPUI have hosted a number of events such as the Pan Am Games and the N.CA.A. Swim­

ming finals, establishing world­

wide recognition. I look forward to more future events which will add to the growth of In­

Without making too much of it, I think it is important to respond to your editorial com­

Being a working student who pays his own tuition, I work hard for my money and under­

If you would like to get stu­

dent feedback on the parking situation, I suggest that you work the gates and turn stu­

dents away for awhile. As it is, the employees of the parking services are now bearing the consequences of your decisions.

If there is some time that we can get together and discuss some of the alternatives open to us such as shuttles or lot expan­

Departing O pinion Editor bids , staff adieu

This Mm eater marks the beginning of an end for me.

rm not sure, though, when “it” will hit me. "It” is the realisation that my associ­

ation with the Sagamore will be no more.

Alas, parting is such sweet sorrow, but I must move on to other things. I'll pack the Sagamore memoriae away with other precious relics and get on with the business of growing up.

Working here has taught me infinite wisdom and allowed me to grow. I will try to utilise that wisdom and knowl- I try to make it a habit when I leave a job to reflect and evaluate it from two points of views.

1) Would I do it over again, and 2) What did I learn from it?

After sorting through five years of working at the Sagamore, (in some ca­

pacity) I’d have to say yes, I would do it again.

When assessing the multitude of knowledge that I’ve gained, I can only say, IVe learned one hell of a lot.

I’ve learned about managing a newspa­

per, writing for a newspaper, being editor of a newspaper, and what is ex­

tremely valuable to me, I’ve learned about people and how to communicate ef­

fectively with them.

I began working at the Sagamore in 1983 as a sales secretary I worked on the salsa side for nearly a year before 1 let anyone know that I had writing expe­

rience It was a classic case of me lacking confidence and being afraid to tread new water.

The next year 1 was appointed Busi­

ness Msnager. Considering that I was an English mitjor, ray fiin-filled days at bill­

ing for advertising and doing payroll eras beginning to place some wear and tear on my non-mathematical brain.

Then . . . it happened.

I was asked to attend a play and write a review for the paper.

I wrote the review and even enjoyed the olay. It wasn’t the first time that I had been published, but seeing my name in print confirmed what I had known all the time: I wanted to write. It was simp­

ly a matter of me cutting the apron strings in the business department.

After winning an Indiana Collegiate Press Association award for “best play review" 1 wandered (more often) to the other side.

Last fall, I was offered the position of Opinion Editor.

What a challenge!

Especially since I knew nothing about the position and what it entailed.

I accepted, merely because someone had faith in me as a writer and believed that I could do it.

I guess the question should be, what haven't I learned?

I suppose the most negative aspect

would be that I'm no better at juggling my time now than when I started out.

Other than that it has been a positive and moot rewarding experience.

Ha! I can say that now, especially since I’ve managed to salvage my roles of wife and mother. (The kids are beginning to recogniM me now, itll take awhile longer with my husband)

On a more positive note, I’ve learned about opinions and editorials, and com­

puters, and losing things on the com­

puters. I’ve learned to edit, cutting when it was too long, adding when it was too short and Mving it for a future issue when it failed to meet Sagamore stan­

dards.

The readers tell us what they like in a paper. Being Opinion Editor afforded me

the opportunity of learning (rather quickly and consistently) what they mdn’t like.

I've learned how to read people and read between the lines

And during this five year period, I learned about friendship. I’ve watched people come and go. I’ve seen hate rela­

tionships and the building of true friend­

ships over the years.

It’s like an administration. There’s the good and bad that come and go with every passing semester But when it’s good, a comradene among the staff de­

velops and it’s really special

This year, I was fortunate. It was a very good year. Not only did we faring to light some valid issues and concerns but we did so with fairness and dignity.

Hopefully, we encouraged and inspired some of you. I hope we made a difference.

Would I do it all over again? Of course!

So what if I never sleep, go crasy in my classes, and lorn a family. (Just kidding, honey.) Seriously though, I would. There are great rewards as a result far writing far the student press I’d encourage any­

one interested in writing to keep it in mind. Time will always be a factor, then again, there are others more adept in organising their time more efficiently than I.

What will I miss the moat?

Nothing could replace those crasy, sany, uptight, wild and wacky ack-o bunch of staffers that I hold near and dear to my heart. Good luck to all of you in future endeavors, and may we meet again. Not too soon, though.

Anticipation and anxiety obsess new Editor

Lost December I made big plans for spring while I was taking a semester off from school.

Besides planning and taking a long- awaited vacation to the Winter Olympics in Calgary, I planned to make consider­

able progress writing a novel. It’s mid- April and I can report one and a half pages written. Alas, even those paltry Mntences are not above m^jor revision.

Somehow nothingness expanded and consumed my days when I didn’t have scheduled obligations. I seem to ac­

complish more when things are a little hectic.

Everyone needs to fssl challenged. So why have I hesitated in officially accept ing an offer to be the Sagamore'e Opinion Editor for next year? IVe said more than once that Fd like the job. I was the Opinion Editor for my high school news­

paper, and I loved the rush from writing a persuasive editorial after invss tigs ting all sides of a topic.

If this sMms like the challenge I*vo been lacking, why all the whining?

Part of my hesitation comes from fear of losing control of my life. I want enough time to excel in my studies, to go to din­

ner and bars with my friends and to run out to a movie with my husband without pencilling it in on my calendar the week before. Tne freedom I have now is un­

satisfying, yet strangely difficult to give up.

Fm not a newcomer to this staff. I’ve spent enough time here to know how the great needs of this newspaper haunt me when rm trying to go to sleep at night or trying to eryoy a free afternoon. Story ideas refuse to give me peace.

Quite simply, I become passionate about my work here. And that intense feeling, although frightening, has con­

vinced me to accept the position.

I have reminded myself that I tend to imagine situations will be worse than they end up being. Hiding from life is easy. Pacing challengM with anthusiMm and resolve ia difficult.

My acceptance also reflects my need to make a difference. It is difficult for me to become righteously enraged about the conditions of our environment or IUPUI’s political arena when I have done nothing to support the causes I believe in.

1 hope that by accepting the poasUon of Opinion Editor I will make a difference.

When I accept the responsibility I also make a commitment to you readers. I will listen not only to the people who write, csdl or walk through the office door but to the voices I hear aa I walk down the halla.

I commit myself to investigating con­

troversy rather than avoiding i t I will reserve judgment until I have analysed information from a variety of printed and living resources.

I will determine the length and place­

ment of a story beaed on the importance of that story to the readers. Giving a story leas than its share of space or prominence in the newspaper may deceive the readers and damage the bond of trust the editors and readers share

I hope to address issues that are daily concerns of our readers and those that have an clamant of news.

IUPUI-Columbus becoming students'first choice, sa ys director

Continued from Pag* 1

lab, and a new m ining lab, all ft Had with equipment that is

“newer, more currant, more like modam buainaae and industry”

Bippan said.

In one lab, fall-time lecturer Lloyd Feldman stands beside the cutaway of a B aeries engine donated by the locally-based Cummins Engine Company, Inc.

Feldman is an instructor tor the Mechanical Engineering Technology two-year program which includes courses in physics, engineering technology, materials and processes, power systems and computer prop- gramming, among others.

Besides the MeT, students can earn associates degrees in Elec­

trical Engineering Technology, Computer Technology, and Com­

puter Integrated Manufacturing through the Purdue Statewide Technology Program, which leases labs and office space through IUPUI.

The Computer Integrated Manufacturing degree program will be offered next fall for the first time.

Phillip Nine, faculty member at IUlHjI-Columbus for three years, is the Purdue Statewide Technology Program on-site coordinator, and serves in an unofficial capacity as coor­

dinator of Purdue programs of­

fered through Indianapolis as well.

“One of the problems we've had here in the Indianapolis area is that Cummins has not

hired a high school graduate far about 13 years,” said Nine.

“Used to be, you graduated Arum

high school here, you went down and filled out an application for Cummins and were hired. ” Today, Cummins replaces retired employees with middle- aged people moving into ap­

prenticeship programs, choosing to retrain rather than hire, Nine said.

As a result, “we're seeing that more and more of the students are going to college here.”

“Very gradually, IUPUI- Columbus is becoming the first choice. Ifs the least expensive way for them to get their educa­

tions,” he said.

IUPUI-Columbus may be the first choice for many students, but others, such as electrical engigineering technology stu­

dent Dave Munt, will transfer later to Indianapolis and West Lafayette.

Nine believes that the demand for technology programs is con­

stant, but necessarily be limited by the area's population.

“We*re going to pick up a larger proportion of the pofHila- tion, but that population is not going to expand very rapidly. As new companies move in, though, and use us for their training programs, weVe going to pick up some.”

Considering the factors — a fairly large pool of student ap­

plicants, strong community sup­

port, interested local busii

— it seems obvious to ask why

IUPUI-Columbus exists as an extension of IUPUI, rather than a full-fledged branch campus like IUPU-Ft. Wayne.

Bippen explained that IUPUI- Columbus as IUPUTe extension receives accreditation each time IUPUI is accredited, and dose not bear the burden of maintain-

“administrative overhead.”

North Central (ac­

crediting institution) comes to Indianapolis and accredits that campus, they are simultaneous­

ly accrediting this campus,” he said. “For faculty to get pay- checks and students to get tran­

scripts” an enormous amount of in g “adm

n V h e n

lU P U t-C o k u n b u s B u ild in g

administrative services are re­

quired, which IUPUI-Columbus receives through association with IUPUI, Bippen said.

Soda] events at IUPUI- Columbus are few and far be­

tween, but those that do materialise seem well-received, ouch as the recent “Second An­

nual Variety Show” which fea­

tured students, faculty and staff in acts ranging from a legs con­

test to a drum sola

IUPUI-Columbus programs falling into the area of com­

munity service indude its con­

tinuing education courses, com­

puterized career counseling, ac­

cess to its 20,000 volume library and T h e Ptedicator” an eco­

nomic quarterly newsletter.

“We have few people,” said Bippen. “Therefore we try to maximise their impact.”

IUPUI-Columbus must “reach out to the community and say we have expertise in our faculty which may be useful to you,” he

The preeence of IUPUI- Columbus in Bartholomew County providee “opportunity and encouragement to go on. I think the investors thought in those terms when they plunked their money down.”
