Parking Decal Increased $10
By JEAN CLAUDE dc la FRANCE
Assistant Sports Editor
UM President Edward T. Foote has approved a $11) hike for parking decals, effective in the Fall of 1982.
Acting upon the recommendation of Vice President for Financial Affairs David lieberman. Foote approved the increase Which supposedly stemmed from the University's Parking Authority.
But USBG Senate Speaker Eric Lieberman said that he is concerned with proper procedures not being followed.
In a interview with The Miami Hurricane Tuesday night, David Lieberman said that "the people involved in making up the University's budget” decided on an increase of $20 to cover overhead expenditures.
The decision was made because for the first time in its history, the parking department would be charged an indirect cost. The indi rect cost is projected to be $100,000, said David Lieberman.
The Hurricane learned late Wednesday of several new developments which conflict with the vice-president s account.
Item: David Lieberman said the hike was made because had the university charged the parking department an indirect cost, it is likely that the latter would run into a deficit.
Item: Dr. Joseph Moder, chairman of the Parking Authority, said the financial state of the parking department will not be known until late May when the university will balance its books.
In addition, Moder told I he llur ricanc in an exclusive interview that the Parking Authority, which operates on a $100,000 budget, "set aside $100,000 in contingency funds in case of a deficit the year before The money is from a monetary surplus, because parking revenues exceeded expenditures
Item: According to a reliable source close to the Parking Authority, the parking department has been paying for “indirect costs' all along.
USBG officials are worried that the new revenues arc set to cover deficits occured elsewhere within the university.
An aggreement reached between the administration and the student goverment in 1977 calls for all parking funds to be put back into the parking service.
David Lieberman told The Hum cane that parking would have been in deficit once the university began charging indirect costs.

In a USBG Senate bill, Colin Gabay asked for proof that the increase was justified.
Lieberman responded with a memorandum to Vice President for Student Affairs William Butler, which said that the figure was derived after a projection made by the university's budget committee that the indirect costs would total close to $100,000 in extra expenditures.
Moder called the figure "totally coincidental” with the contingency fund set aside by the Parking Authority.
Eric Lieberman said USBG was concerned that the Parking Authority was “told" to recommend the increase.
"What good is it if you have a Parking Authority and you do not let it make its own decisions?” he asked
Acknowledging that he prompted the Authority to “look into the necessity of an increase,” David Lieberman said nonetheless: "I did not issue any orders."
"It is the Body that recommends whatever it wants but therp were no threats made.”
In a meeting with student leaders Wednesday, Foote said he approved the increase but did not have knowledge of the specifics of the matter, according to USBG president Aurelio Quinones.
According to David Lieberman, Foote was one of the people involved in projecting a need for the $20 increase.
Foote also said his decision on the matter was not final, according to USBG Vice President Stacey Wein, who attended the meeting.
A copy of David Lieberman's memorandum, coming from the President's office, indicated thal the administration was ready to go ahead with the increase.
The copy, to which The Httrri cane was privy, was sent to Oliver Bonnert of the Business Affairs office. Moder, and Dr. Fugene Clasby, Chairman of the Faculty Senate.
Foote wrote on it, “I approve of this. Please implement." The signature was dated April 23 — students leaders were not aware of Foote’s approval until Wednesday morning.
The Faculty Senate, which according to policy should have been given a notice of 60 days for such changes, did not know of the changes until this week.
"As far as we are concerned, this is not a dead issue," Eric Lieberman said. "Foote has got to realize that students are paying this university and have a right to be a part of making any decisions that affect them."
Lee Named New
Provost

(if the Hurricane staff
Dr. William F Lee, dean of the School of Music for 18 years, has been named Provost and Executive Vice President, effective ,i ne 1,1982. Lee succeeds Dr. Clarence G. Stuckwisch, who has held the position on an interim basis for the 1981-82 year and is retiring Mav 31
The decision came as a surprise to many people, including Undergraduate Student Body Government leaders. While USBG leaders met with Foote Wednesday afternoon, he gave no indication the new provost would be named so soon. USBG Senate Speaker Eric Lieberman said the decision "was a total shock. I did not expect an answer to come out so quickly
“I am a bit bothered by the fact that he | Foote | did not give us some notice It is like we have feared all along, the university is losing sight of who it is here to serve,” Lieberman added.
USBG President Aurelio Quiñones said the decision "showed a total disregard for student opinion. There is no way you can pick a permanent provost in a week. The decision made a total farce out of the original Provost search committee.
“I feel misled because the indication was that no decision was about to be made altough | Foote said | there would be one soon. We were given three different options when one was apparently decided upon already.”
President Foote said that while he did meet with Quiñones Wednesday, “the decision was not ready to be announced. I told USBG,” said Foote, “that the provost would be announced in an immediate future and discussed the three alternatives.” The alternatives included naming himself provost and carrying out both jobs, selecting an interim provost, or picking a permanent provost.
“The selection process was virtually completed but not entirely,'' said Foote, which is why he did not notify USBG “that a selection was imminent."
Lee said he "views it |the provost's job| as a tremendous challenge to help with the new president to turn the ship around and improve the academic quality of the university.
“1 look forward to working with the students, to get their views on what kind of an education they receive. Students are extremely helpful and we need to sit together and try to solve problems.
" This office must have some permanency. There have been seven provosts here since I've been dean," Lee added.
Dean Kleinman, dean .of the School of Education and Allied Professions, said."I am just delighted with the appointment. It’s just the appointment we need to keep the University moving forward." Lee is a “real leader . . . he can bridge the past with the future.
I look forward to working with the students, to get their views on what kind of an education they receive. Students are extremely helpful and we need to sit together and try to solve problems.'
Dr. William F. Lee, newly-elected Provost
"He will be strong for students and he knows what the students need; he’s been here for a long time."
Foote has been searching for a provost all year, but the first search, which was nationwide, came up empty. Stuckwisch said that after the external search was
conducted and the person selected declined the post, the president talked "to many, many people within the university" to make sure no one was being overlooked
Foote then recommended Lee to the consultative board, made up of the deans and the Faculty Senate council. The board approved it, and. according to the rules of the university, the president appointed Lee based on that action. The president has the authority to appoint the provost.
“When Lee came here, the university was ready to phase out the School of Music. It is now one of the finest schools in the country," Stuckwisch said.
Foote said. "Dr Lee brings an unusual combination of talents and experience to this important post. He is an accomplished scholar, composer, musician and teacher who has earned national recognition as an educational leader
“In nearly two decades as dean of the University of Miami School of Music, Dr. Lee has brought a small, struggling institution to vigorous strength and prominence. The place crackles with quality, pride and excitement. He is an outstanding administrator in the best sense
“I have been thinking about this
appointment for more than a year. 1 could not be more pleased with the choice of Dean Lee. He is an outstanding administrator, fine teacher, scholar, and a truly gifted academic leader. A very important position is in good hands."
Quinones said, “the School of Music is one of the most successful schools in the university, starting off with recruitment and retention and working right up to school spirit. If he can transmit this success to the entire university, then we have quite a provost on our hands. I wish him well and look forward to working with him as Student Gov ernment president
Lee, 53, earned his Bachelor of Music and Master of Science degrees from North Texas State University. He also holds Master of Music and Doctor of Philosophy degrees from the University of Texas and did advanced studies at the Eastman School of Music, Rochester, New York
A professional composer and arranger as well as an award- winning author, he has earned 13 American Society of Composers. Authors, and Publishers awards for the quality and frequency of performance of his serious compositions.

boote Rejects Evaluation
By JEAN CLAUDE de la FRANCE
Assistant Sports Editor
Hie UM Faculty Senate proposal which would have provided for the evaluation of UM president-in the future was rejected by President Edward T Foote last week.
In a letter read at the Senate meeting Monday by Senate Chairman Eugene Clasby, Foote said: ‘‘Having recently been evaluated from almost every angle conceivable, i cannot generate high enthusiasm for creating yet another system of evaluating the President."
Saying that lie is being evaluated by the University Trustees, l oote said he is "not persuaded that the university needs a more formal procedure of evaluation than that now existing."
“It is important that the faculty has a right to evaluate the chief executive officer of the university," said Robert Zaller, senator of the history department.
"I am not against the idea of evaluating the president." Foote said in an interview He also said he is not ruling out the possibility of establishing such a system in the future.
According to the president, the legislation has been pending before his arrival at UM.
The legislation, which was sent to Foote as an addendum to a bill dealing with evaluations of deans and department chairpersons, was misinter-
preted by the president. Clasby said
Foote's reaction "suggests to me that the president is confusing the whole evaluation issue," flashy said.
The mistake has caused a delay on the implementation of deans and chairpersons evaluation procedures. The bill is expected to be sent to Foote again without the rider.
In other matters the senate heard an updated report on the state of the university's recruiting efforts from Admissions Director George Giampetro.
Giampetro said two surveys taken of prospective students have given the admissions office a better understanding of what strategy to use in recruiting against competing schools.
Along with adding new ground to the UM's recruiting territory, admissions officials went on the road to meet with prospective students and their parents
Financial Aid award letters are also being sent out earlier than usual, Giampetro said, to help students in making up their minds.
Foote appeared before the Senate and -aid he is looking at four alternatives in his search for provost for the university
He could either continue the search for someone on the outside, look for someone from within the administration, appoint an interim provost. C':he least desirable of the alternatives ') or take- over the duties of provost himself.

Ground Broken For New Buildm«*:

Groundbreaking for the new' $3 million School of Continuing Studies was held Wednesday afternoon behind the Learning Center.
Attending the ceremonies w'ere UM President Edward T. Foote, and guests, James L. Knight, chairman of the board, The Miami Herald, Ed Williamson, president of the UM Citizens Board and Williamson Cadillac Company, James McLamore, Chairman of the UM Board of Trustees and John McMullan, executive editor of The Herald.
After breaking ground, all had praise for Knight, the primary-donor for the new facility. Knight is "the least pompous man in the community," Foote said. McLamore added that he "doesn't know a citizen that does more in this community than James Knight."
Dean M. Robert Allen, dean of the School of Continuing Studies said, “Jim’s been an inspiration to me, this school, and this university"
The building will be located near the Learning Center in the northeast section of campus. Construction work on the 30,000-square-foot facility will take a year, according to Allen
The building is currently two-thirds funded — $1 million in accumulated interest from a James L. Knight Charitable Trust gift and a recent challenge grant of $1 million, also from the Trust. The UM Citizens Board is spearheading the fund drive to raise $1 million to match the challenge grant.
Completion of the building will centralize the School’s extensive programs that are currently -scattered throughout campus on a
I
space-available basis.
“The University places high priority on this project as part of its objectives and its aspirations for future development. Continuing education today is important for both professionals and non-professionals of all ages. Updating educational skills is increasingly critical to advancement in careers or in changing professions and for enhancing individual and group lifestyles." F'oote said
Allen noted that reports of every major national or regional commission on the subject of current critical needs in American education stresses continuing professional and adult education
Essentially a classroom building, it will contain 17 classrooms — 12 for up to 35 students; three for a maximum of tit) students (divisible into tw-o rooms), and two classrooms for 75 to 100 students; a reception. registration and advising
and counseling area and support facilities
A feature of the building will be a modern multi-purpose independent studies laboratory, which will also be in support of Intensive English students. The building will be linked to the University's downtown conference center — the James L. Knight International Center which is scheduled to open later this year, and to the I earning Center on campus.
