GiTtttt-Timw, Coryellis, Saturday, June 27, 1981 Lieuallen Faculty pay cut not likely, says the 6 percent pay hike currently Included for state employees In the 1981-82 budget, By Clay Eals Of the Gazette-Times probably consider the higher education budget, and final action by both chambers of the Legislature is not expected until two or "Unless Oregon adopts I deliberate policy to cut back sharply on the percentage of It population to be served by pulbic four-year colleges and universities, the closure of an Institutions (should) be rejected as response to the current fiscal crisis." the policy said. The -policy said demographic data for 1 Oregon Indicate there will be "a significance Increase" In enrollment by 1990. "We will need all of the space we have," It said. The board also spent nearly two hours hearing testimony on and discussing whether the University of Oregon should continue to offer program "within its law school which allows students to practice law for academic credit on half of the National Wildlife Federation. The program became an issue last winter when Eugene lumberman Aaron Jones threatened to withhold a $250,000 contribution, to the university if the program was not scuttled.

Jones was present at Friday's meeting where his atl rney and several represen- tatives of the' timber industry and' millworkers, food processors and cattlemen urged elimination, of the program, called the of Environmental Law Clinic. Paul Olum, university president, and Derrick Bell, dean of the law school, told the board the clinic has been, restructured In response to the criticism by Jones and others. The clinic, which previously was a Joint venture of the law school and the federation, is now a class entirely under university control, Olum said, A separate organization, the Pacific Northwest Resources Center, has been established. It is controlled by the federation and will continue legal casework on behalf of the federation, he added, Students in the clinic may seek Internships with the center, Olum said, but that does not signify any endorsement by the university of the federation's positions on Issues. Olum said the federation's center, located in a room of the law school, will begin paying 1180 monthly rent Immediately.

He also said that starting in January, the center probably would be located off the campus, In agreement with a Board vote urging the university to consider such action. Board members also asked Lieuallen to 4 report to them on state system procedures for setting up clinics and centers which Involve private organizations. resulting in an actual increase of 3 percent TThe Higher Education Board originally recommended the Legislature consider a 4 percent reduction in faculty pay, instead of the 3 percent Lieuallen said the faculty pay cut and the 21st item on the list, a statewide enrollment reduction of the equivalent of 1,330 full time students, for savings totaling $2.5 million, have the "most legislative support" for retention. "At the very minimum, I think these items will be restored" to the budget, he told the board. It is a "virtual certainty," Lieuallen said, that items one through 14, which total 3419 million, will be cut from the budget That would represent a 3 percent cut in the level of higher education funding recommended by Atiyeh, Lieuallen said.

If cyjs go "very much beyond" that level, sUteVWges and universities will have to declare financial exigency and lay off faculty without timely notice, Lieuallen said. A legislative conference committee will three days before adjournment said. Lieuallen said a special meeting of the Higher Education Board probably will be called in August to allow the board to adopt plan for implementing the Legislature's 1981-82 cuts. The board already is scheduled to meet July 24 and Sept 11. Legislators expect to call special session in August 1982 to deal with the 1982-83 higher education budget.

Members of the Higher Education Board made no comments on Lieuallen's remarks during Friday's day-long meeting at the University of Oregon. Action taken at the meeting Included unanimous passage of a policy which states that the board opposes closing a college or university as a way to cut the higher education budget. Legislators and others have suggested Institutional closure over the years, citing what they say is unnecessary duplication at the state's eight campuses. EUGENE Faculty at Oregon colleges and universities got good news about their salaries Friday. The 1381 Legislature, said Roy Ueualleo, chancellor of the state System of Higher Education, probably will not reduce proposed faculty pay for 1981-52.

"I don't believe anybody Is seriously contemplating" a faculty pay cut, Lieuallen told the state Board of Higher Education. The education subcommittee of the legislative Joint Ways and Means Committee has fashioned a $14.3 million, hit list for the state's 1981-82 higher education Jiudget. The list which represents about 10 percent of the coming year's higher education budget is in limbo. No action on the cuts is expected until next month after legislators determine how much of Gov. Vic Atiyeh's 33 million tax package they want to adopt A 3 percent faculty pay cut is the last of 22 items on the hit list Such a cut would total $5 million.
