AS or administration
Who gets the refund?
By Karen Jenkins
Last week Western's administration
turned down an offer
from the Associated Students to
lend it money from the Bookstore
Reserve Account to help
cover the 5 percent budget reduction
ordered by Gov. Booth
Gardner.
At the same time the administration
announced it would use
$30,000 the A S. was planning to
receive to help raise the $449,000
needed to cover the budget cuts.
The $30,000 is being refunded
from a Social Security account
that the A S "has been paying
into during the past several years
as an employer," Yvonne Ward,
AS secretary/treasurer, said. A
federal court ruled last fall it did
not have to pay ;-»to that fund.
The A S expected to receive
the money and planned for it in
next year's budget.
But Western's President G.
Robert Ross said that last fall
when the university heard the
money was being returned, they
planned to use it for nonrecurring
university expenses.
"I was never considering that
money going baiK there (the
A S budget)," Ross said.
He added, "At least, that is
something we'd never discussed."
But Ward said it wasn't a matter
that needed to be discussed.
"It's not a question of the university
promising the money to
us. It was our money to start
with. Now that it's being
returned, it should naturally go
back to the A S.," Ward said.
Ross said Sunday he didn't
recall all the details of where the
money came from but he
planned to look into where
money originated and where it
should go.
"The first thing we need to do
is get a ruling from the attorney
general's office," Ross said.
The A S has asked Assistant
Attorney General Wendy Bohlke

China, Western exchange tech
By J. Thomas Bauer
Next year an exchange program
between Western and
Chongqing University in
Chongqing, China will bring two
Chinese students to Western and
send three professors to Chongqing
to help China with its automotive
technology.
Last month, Paul Ford, Western's
vice-president for academic
affairs; Mike Seal, technology
professor and Vehicle Research
Institute director; George Sandi-son,
Board of Trustees chairman
and Henry Schwarz, history
professor, met with Chongqing
officials in China to discuss thei.
details of the exchange program.
Ford said plans for the
exchange provide for two Chinese
mechanical engineering
students working on their master's
degrees to come to Western
for one academic.year and for
three Western professors to present
a two-week lecture series at
Chongqing University.
The two Chongqing students
will work as research assistants
in Western's Vehicle Research
Institute (VR1).
Going to Chongqing this time
next year will be Seal, Claude
Hill, technology professor, and
William Brown, senior technician
at the VRI. Seal will lecture
on transmission engineering and
aerodynamics, Brown on diesel
engines and Hill on plastics.
Seal said he believes China
could be where Japan is now in
automotive technology in about
15 years.
"Lord knows they have the
people. What has held them back
was a bureaucracy .which prevented
new technology from
coming into China," Seal said.
Ford said he also believes
China has opened up,
explaining:
"China is changing from a
communal system to a system of
individual responsibility," Ford
said. Ford likened "individual
responsibility" to capitalism.
Ford said another exchange
program, with a Chinese university
may be planned. Southwest
China Teacher's College in Bei
Bei, China, is interested in hosting
computer science and business
professors from Western.
Cowabunga!
