Volume 22, Number 39 May 23, 1972 COLLEGE PRESIDENT CLARIFIES FACULTY EVALUATION PICTURE President Robert E. Kennedy issued a written statement on Friday (May 19) addressed to the deans of Cal Poly's seven instructional schools for the purpose of eliminating cur­ rent confusion as to his position on the subject of student evaluation of faculty. The confusion was due to a communications failure, Dr. Kennedy said. He noted that his stand on student evaluations is the same as it has been for the past five years. In June, 1967, he expressed in writing his hope that students, faculty, and administra­ tion could cooperatively develop a program of faculty evaluations which would include systematic student input. Dr. Kennedy said recent interpretations of his desire for a systematic input of students on faculty performance resulted from two misunderstandings. First, he noted that he had not "demanded" a college-wide mandatory program by the end of the Spring Quarter. Sec­ ondly, he said he had not endorsed a single-evaluation instrument nor any procedure cur­ rently in use in any academic school as the "ideal" for mandatory use on a college-wide basis. Students of the ASSIST program who met with President Kennedy on April 27 had recommended that a mandatory evaluation of faculty be adopted for the coming year.. The results of that meeting had been summarized in a written statement by ASI Representative Hilary Findley and pr~sented to the Academic Council. Dr. Kennedy said he was asked to attend the May 15 meeting of the Academic Council, primarily to verify the accuracy of the statements on which he had been indirectly quoted by Findley. During President Ken­ nedy's short appearance at the Academic Council meeting he stated, "Mr. Findley's state­ ment is accurate as to what I said and the remarks are consistent with the position I have been taking on this matter for the past five years." ASSIST Recommendation As a result of the discussion of the ASSIST Committee's current recommendation that a "mandatory evaluation of faculty should be adopted on this campus in the coming year" without having the results used in a publication, the Academic Council passed a motion that would recommend to the president a policy of "mandatory student evaluation of fac­ ulty with tabulated results to be included in the personnel file of the individual fac­ ulty members effective this Spring Quarter." Chairman Dale Andrews (Academic Vice Pres­ ident) appointed a committee of Messrs. Higdon, Coats, Findley, Voss, and Boche to de­ velop procedures to implement such a policy and present a recommendation to the Academ­ ic Council at a regular meeting on May 22. Dr. Andrews made it clear to the council that no action on implementation would take place until a plan recommended by the coun­ cil was approved by the .president. Reports on this recommendation led to action on the following day (May 16) by the A~a­ demic Senate, which a · year ago had taken the following position: " • • • the Academic Senate SLO reaffirm its support of student evaluation of academic instruction and fur­ ther that the Academic Senate SLO recommend full cooperation of all faculty, departments, (Continued on Page 2) Cal Poly Report -- May 23, 1972 -- Page 2 PRESIDENT CLARIFIES FACULTY EVALUATION • , , (Continued from Page 1) and schools with student evaluation which is used in accordance with existing faculty personnel policies, but carried out by students with no interposition of faculty con­ trol or supervision of such evaluations." In the May 16 meeting the Academic Senate's action opposing "the Administration's pro­ posed imposition of a college-wide student evaluation procedure" was prompted, said observers, by the interpretation that President Kennedy had agreed to a single, college­ wide, mandatory system of student evaluation of faculty to be implemented prior to the end of the Spring Quarter." In his memorandum to the deans, President Kennedy said, "It makes no difference now how that erroneous information was circulated -- it is obvious that I am entirely to blame for my failure to communicate accurately. I am extremely sorry and I apologize to every­ one who has been upset by the mistaken impression that I was ordering such a course of action." Since President Kennedy was in Sacramento seeking legislative support for salary in­ creases, additional EOP funds, increased funding for equipment and more capital outlay funds on both May 16 and 17, he was not able to be present at the Academic Senate meet­ ing when the issue as to his intentions on the matter of faculty evaluation by students were discussed in floor debate. His subsequent memorandum of clarification circulated to deans and academic department heads on May 19 clarifies the following three points: 1. The student evaluation of faculty system to be used during the current Spring Quar­ ter will be whatever pilot or trial system the school or department has already developed or is developing. 2. An ad hoc committee of student, faculty and administrative members will be assigned the responsibility of evaluating the various trial and pilot programs currently in use on this campus and will use the most effective procedures as guidelines for a general, college-wide set of minimum standards within which each instructional school will op­ erate its own future evaluation program. 3. The resulting procedures would be ready for implementation before the end of the Fall Quarter, 1972. CAL POLY FAMILY DAY AT ROARING CAMP Sunday, June 11, has been set aside as Cal Poly Family Day at Roaring Camp in Felton.

Cal Poly Report -- May 23, 1972 -- Page 6 ORCHESTRA CONCERT WILL BE FINALE OF CAMPUS SEASON An evening concert by the Cal Poly Chamber Orchestra on Friday (May 26) will conclude the 1971~72 concert season on campus. The program, which is being sponsored by the Music Department, will be presented in the Cal Poly Theater starting at 8:30 p.m. Ad­ mission will be free and the public is invited. Variety, an ingredient that has become a trademark of the 40-member college orchestra, will be easily recognizable in the program selected for the May 2~ performance by Clifton E. Swanson, conductor. of the orchestra. . Swanson, a member of the Cal Poly faculty since 1968, explained this week that the orchestra normally spe~ializes in music that is rarely performed because it was written for small groups or is little known. Even so, numbers by such familiar composers as Sibelius, Stravinsky, Vivaldi, and Mozart are all programned for next week's concert. Scheduled' to join the Cal Poly orchestra for the performance in the college theater are soloist Ken Roth, presently a graduate student at Stanford University, and a String Quartet composed of violinists Mike Poleinski and Carol Kersten, David Cook on the viola, and John Hoyt on the violincello. Roth has been a solo performer in the San Francisco area and in New England where he played with the Boston Philharmonic, the Cantata Singers of Boston, and the Cambridge Consort. Composed of members of the Chamber Orchestra the Cal Poly String Quartet has performed locally several times and took part in a recent concert tour with the Cal Poly Chamber Singers. TALK BY ECONOMIC CONSULTANT SLATED THURSDAY MORNING Arnold Paulson, consultant to four presidential hopefuls and the man who believes he has the answer ·to the United. States' economic stability, will speak at Cal Poly at 11 a.m. on Thursday (May 25). Paulson will appear in the Cal Poly Theater under sponsor­ ship of the Speakers Forum of the Associated Students, Inc. The public is invited and admission will be free. Paulson, of Granite Falls, Minn., is executive director of the National Organization for Raw Materials, Inc., and of Citizens Congress for Private Enterprise. A former super­ market operator in Granite Falls, and later owner and operator of an electronics out­ let, he has been active in Chamber of Commerce work for over 20 years. In 1950, the Minnesota Junior Chamber of Commerce named him "Outstanding Young Man ot the Year." Twelve years ago, through his chamber activities, Paulson became involved in efforts to recruit industry to rural communities. In developing data to support recruitment efforts, he became keenly interested in economic analysis. He was tutored by the late Carl Wilkins, who has served as an economic analyst for congressional committees. Paulson supports guaranteed income for all, increased value for all production -- ag­ riculture, industry, and labor -- and the abandonment of an economy based on indebted­ ness. He has been consulted by presidential hopefuls Hubert H. Humphrey, George Mc­ Govern, Eugene McCarthy, and George Wallace and has also presented his analysis of economic conditions before 'congressional committees.

In use since 1959, the present Student Health Center was designed to handle the needs of a student body of 6,000, half the current enrollment. E.
