Trustees OK request
for $190.1. million
By DAN REICHL
Collegian Staff Writer
The University Board of
Trustees Friday approved an
appropriations request of $190.1
million for the University's 1985-86
budget.
The request represents a 16.8
percent increase over last year's
appropriation.
University President Bryce
Jordan said the increased request
is necessary in order to prevent a
tuition increase for next fall.
"Tuition rates have increased in
each of the past 17 years to the
point where Penn State's tuition is
among the very highest in the
nation for major public
universities," Jordan said.
"We cannot halt this trend
without support from the state," he
said.
Jordan remains "perpetually
optimistic" that the request would
be granted but pointed out that if it
is not, a tuition increase is possible.
Jordan said he will emphasize to,
the legislature how state dollars
will be spent for the overall
revitalization of Pennsylvania.
"The University's financial
progress rests on a three-legged
stool: increased state support,
increased private support and
better management. Unless we can
make all three move ahead, our
fourth option is a tuition increase.
That option is repugnant to this
administration," Jordan said.
Trustee Marian U. Coppersmith
said she didn't think a tuition
increase should be used as an "ace
in-the-hole" in case the University
is denied the full increase.
"I think we are all still aching
from the tuition increase which
was necessary at our last
meeting," she said.
Undergraduate Student
Government President Adam
Levinson said he was pleased that
no tuition increase is currently
planned and expressed optimism
that the University can avoid the

request is not granted.
"If the University does not get
the full 16.8 percent increase it has
requested, that does not
necessarily mean tuition will rise.
Contributions from the private
sector have increased significantly
and that's something we're
working on again this year," said
Levinson.
Jordan explained that the
appropriation request represents
two specific concerns: an increase
in basic operating costs and a set of
three "critical obligations or
opportunities that require
immediate attention."
He said the three critical areas,
Gardens
receive new home
By DAN REICHL
Caßeulah Staff Writer.
Buckhout Gardens will not be
wiped out as many had feared, but
the University has decided that
the gardens will undergo a change
of address.
Final plans for the relocation of
the gardens to make room for new
laboratory facilities were
approved Friday by the
University Board of Trustees.
Stanley Schaffer, chairman of
the committee on physical plant,
said the gardens will be rebuilt
"about 100 feet to the east of where
they are now located," and that
the new gardens will be
comparable in quality to the old.
"We might even do a little
better," he said. "The existing
garden is located such that many
of the visitors to University Park
and even many of the students'
have never seen it. The new
gardens will have all the benefits
of the old, but in a more obvious
location."
Board President Walter J. Conti
which represent $B.l million of the
appropriation request, incltale
additional support for the College
of Engineering, new programs in
biotechnology, neurosciences and
molecular biology, and increased
funding for minority student aid.
In other business, the trustees
also approved a separate $49.8
million capital budget request for
1985786. This money, if approved by
the state legislature, will be used
for 11 projects including $l9 million
for a new center for engineering
excellence in research. It also
includes $750,000 for remodeling
the Busines§ . Administration
Building as well as $2.7 million
to renovate Carnegie Building.
saved;
said the board had given the
matter-careful consideration -
before reaching a decision.
"We are extremely sensitive to
the needs and concerns of the
students and spent an awful lot of
time seriously considering all the
ramifications. I think we were
able to solve the problems and
come up with a very good
solution," he said.
Dan Evans, vice president of
Eco-Action, said he was "not
entirely pleased" with the board's
decision.
"There's another issue they
didn't consider," Evans said.
"There will be a five-story
building cutting off light to the
greenhouse.
"At least the new location is
close. It's important that the
garden and greenhouse stay
together since one person
maintains them both," he said.
Evans said he had sent a petition
with more than 1,000 signatures to
the trustees. "I'm pleased to see
letter writing does have an
effect," he said.
Alternative housing:
More men and women may share dorms in future
By KRISTINE SORCHILLA
Collegian Staff Writer
The implementation of alternate-wing housing
residence hall floors occupied by men in one wing and
women in another is possible for Fall Semester 1985,
the president of the Association of Residence Hall
Students said.
Linda Rovder,said although seven proposals for
alternative housing have been submitted to the
University since 1972, this is the first time a proposal
has come this close to implementation.
"The proposal is not different (from the previous
proposals), the timing is just different. University
administrators have been very helpful, very
receptive," Rovder said.
A survey taken several years ago to determine the

Admissions dean resigns
By DAN REICHL
Collegian Staff Writer
University Dean of Admissions Donald G. Dickason
has resigned effective this Saturday, University
President Bryce Jordan announced Friday at a
meeting of the University Board of Trustees.
Dickason declined to comment on why he resigned.
Jordan said he "wouldn't want to comment" on the
resignation but speculated that Dickason possibly
"wishes to seek another position."
Praising Dickason as a "national leader among
admissions officers," Jordan maintained that the
resignation had nothing to do with the difficulties
response to co-ed housing was very positive, and
indicated the idea was almost completely accepted,
Joe Cronauer, ARHS Creative Living Options
Committee chairman, said.
"Alternative housing is not such an issue anymore
Parents and administrators were worried about
promiscuity and grades, but it worked out that no
major problems they thought about appeared,"
Cronauer said.
Alternative housing first appeared in some
universities in the early 19705. It has become so
popular that the University is one of the few major
universities that does not offer this housing option,
Rovder said.
One reason for the proposal rejections may be that
Pennsylavania is a conservative state, and the

new computerized admissions system.
Robert E. Dunham, vice president of undergraduate
studies, will be overseeing operations of the
Admissions Office until a replacement is found.
Jordan said the search for a replacement is already
underway and he expects to have assembled a panel of
candidates for the post within 60 days. He said the new
admissions officer may be in place early in the new
calendar year.
An advertisement appeared in the Sept. 5 edition of
The Chronicle of Higher Education notifying potential
candidates that the post will be available Sept. 15.
