TUITION REVENUES, BUDGET ON TARGET

Revenue for Michigan Tech's current fiscal year FY05) meets the university's projections, and the budget is on target to be balanced, President Glenn Mroz reported to the campus community Wednesday.

During his second open forum in as many months, Mroz discussed criteria for the 2005–06 budget, noted the need for a larger endowment, reviewed enrollment targets, and announced that his self-evaluation statement for the University Senate is now posted on the web.

Mroz said tuition revenue for this fall is projected to exceed budget estimates by about $230,000. He expects state revenue to equal the targeted $50.2 million for the year. The state appropriation includes a $1.5 million "rebate," provided to universities that keep tuition below the rate of inflation.

With a 2.3 percent tuition increase for 2004-05, Tech posted the lowest percentage increase in the state.

"This was approved last spring, so that we could provide some degree of certainty to our students and parents," Mroz said. "We remain committed to our promise."

He noted that a 1 percent tuition increase grosses about $500,000, but nets about $370,000 after considering tuition discounts.

In developing the 2005-06 budget, Mroz said he and his executive team will focus on continued belt-tightening and increasing revenue. He said the budget will be balanced, "just like 200–-05," and will include consideration of funding compensation increases. "We have to do that or our good faculty and staff will leave."

Mroz said he is hopeful that the state will provide an increase. "Each one percent increase in state appropriations means $490,000 to our budget," he said.

He also said more aggressive enrollment targets and increased emphasis on sponsored research will add to the bottom line.

"Each $1 million in sponsored research adds $350,000 in indirect cost recovery," he said. He reminded the audience that enrollment targets first set for 2010 are being moved up to 2007. He reaffirmed the targets of 6,000 undergrads and 1,000 graduate students.

"An increased enrollment of 265 students means a net revenue increase of $1.3 million," he said.

The long-term financial solution is to work to increase the university's endowment, Mroz said. "We have to augment this partnership we have with the state," he said. "We have to increase our endowment."

2. HAND NAMED CONFLICT OF INTEREST COORDINATOR

by Laura Walikainen, student writer

This fall, David Hand will take over as Michigan Tech’s conflict of interest coordinator. Hand, professor of civil and environmental engineering, will fill the position formerly held by Christa Walck, professor of business and economics.

The coordinator reviews potential conflicts of interest and advises faculty and staff on whether or not their activities constitute a conflict of interest. A committee assists the coordinator in solving complex cases.

The guiding documents on conflict of interest are the university’s conflict of interest policy, which is set by the Board of Control, and the

conflict of interest procedures, which were approved by the University Senate in May 2003.

These procedures, listed in the Faculty Handbook, define conflicts of interest as “opportunities for inappropriate personal gain during the pursuit of official duties” or “conflict[s] of commitment--the choices individuals make about their professional priorities, especially the

allocation of their time to the different institutions and organizations they serve as professionals.”

“I would encourage everyone to review these procedures; if they believe they might have a conflict of interest, they should call the conflict of interest coordinator for clarification,” said Walck.

Walck is resigning to focus on her research interests.

“It was an educational process for me,” she said about her time as coordinator. “We want to minimize the conflicts but at the same time not discourage people from engaging in different kinds of activities that would benefit the institution and the community. People just need to be aware of what conflicts might arise as they pursue multiple opportunities and learn how to manage them.”

Hand, who worked to get the conflict of interest policy passed by the University Senate, is looking forward to his new role.

“I would like to continue my university service and carry on the great job that was done by past coordinators,” said Hand. “The institutional conflict of interest policy is important for the future, especially considering the SmartZone and other developments.”

7. TEACHING AT TECH: BIMODAL GRADE DISTRIBUTIONS

Many fellow Michigan Tech professors have commented on the emergence of a bimodal grade distribution in the courses that they teach. They usually say something like "I am seeing a big clump of students in the 85-95 percent area and a second large clump around the 60-65 percent range with very, very few students in the middle." Usually, these reports come with some expression of amazement and frustration about what to do with those students who represent the cluster at the bottom. Typically, these professors report that many of the students in the bottom cluster often miss class, fail to take quizzes or neglect to turn in assignments on time. Many tend to achieve dismal scores on the midterm, the final or both.

Typically, instructors ask, "Why are they here if they don't want to learn?" Though they are physically present, many never really take ownership of their learning. Though they are repeatedly forewarned during orientation, some fail to recognize that the pattern of behaviors that got them through high school will likely prove insufficient to assure their success at Tech. Still others succumb to some combination of homesickness, electronic distractions or the demoralizing effects of social isolation.

In courses populated by first-year students, instructors can play an especially vital role in encouraging students to get engaged and to succeed in their studies. Beginning students who fail to submit acceptable work need to get immediate and unequivocal feedback that these behaviors won't work here. Timely referrals to learning centers, advisors, Counseling Services and the First-Year Program Office are likely to help some percentage of these students to get connected. To this end, instructors should plan early assessments with rapid feedback to allow students that fail to have an opportunity to catch up before it's too late.

Another group of students tends to allow its performance level to fall off in courses outside the major. This curricular myopia is a byproduct of a culture that is coming to see higher education purely as vocational preparation and may have been reinforced by career-focused parents and classmates. Advisors and faculty members should think twice before suggesting subtly or overtly that Gen Ed courses are somehow not as important as the courses in the major. The appropriate venue for such curricular debates is not the undergraduate classroom. Students who approach their educational experience applying a "Will I need this at work?" filter miss the richness that a university education is intended to provide.

If we truly value what we teach, we should take the time to convey to our students why lasting and meaningful mastery of the course material is important in their future educational, professional and personal lives. Many students carry highly unrealistic images of what will be required of them in the workplace. "I don't need to learn to write; I'll have a secretary to do that for me!"

Aristotle observed that an effective professional person needs to be able to stir the emotions and earn trust, as well as create logical, factually correct arguments. If we are serious about preparing students to create the future, we can't afford to allow the mundane characterizations that some students bring with them to go unchecked.

All of the elements of this academic community need to work together to tirelessly encourage students to become enthusiastic, openly curious, lifelong learners. The days of a homogeneous, pre-motivated cadre of focused students are long gone, if they ever existed at all. Working together, we just might be able to convince some marginal performers that taking their education seriously is in our common interest.

8. FRED WINTERS: FOREVER A FAVORITE

Every year the MTU Student Entertainment Board has the same discussion, whether or not to bring Fred Winters, Tech's favorite hypnotist, back again. The answer has been a resounding yes. This year, the board is once again bringing Fred back, for the 12th year in succession, for one performance only at the Rozsa Center on Saturday, Sept. 25, at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are on sale at the Rozsa Center Box Office (487-3200, 11:30 a.m.-5 p.m., Monday-Friday, and from noon on the day of the show) or you can purchase tickets on line at http://www.tickets.mtu.edu.

Although the audience is usually predominantly students, the show has lots of appeal for the post-college crowd. Hypnotism is fascinating, and watching a master like Fred Winters is a real experience. There's never any lack of enthusiastic volunteers to go up on stage and strut their stuff while under hypnosis, and others who become hypnotized in the audience often join them. However, don't think that you'll become automatically hypnotized if you're in the audience. It only works if you want it to. And it is quite amusing to watch the person sitting beside you gradually succumb, while you are stone cold sober, so to speak.

Under Winter’s spell, macho guys believe they're cute poodles or dainty ballerinas who pirouette and preen to the delight of the audience. He always keeps the show fresh by introducing new segments and always watches his subjects carefully, making sure that they don't harm themselves in their enthusiasm to follow his often-hilarious instructions. The magic of this fun show is that the volunteers act out their parts like real comedians, as if what they're doing is a perfectly normal thing to do, and don't seem to notice there are hundreds of people watching them do it. And if you doubt that it's all real, talk to someone who's been hypnotized after the show; it'll make a believer out of you.

The visit of Frederick Winters is sponsored by the MTU Student Entertainment Board with funding from the MTU Student Activity Fee and is coordinated by the MTU Great Events Series Office (487-2844). For more information visit http://www.greatevents.mtu.edu.

9. SILENT FILM SATURDAY AT CLUB INDIGO

The Mu Beta Psi music fraternity brings composer/pianist Melvin Kangas to the Calumet Theatre for Club Indigo's annual silent film festival.

On Saturday, Sept. 25, Club Indigo presents Kangas at the piano for a trio of silent film comedy classics. Included are "Bumping into Broadway" with Harold Lloyd, "Back Stage" with Fatty Arbuckle and Buster Keaton, and "Mighty Like a Moose" with Charlie Chase.

Lloyd, Arbuckle, Keaton and Chase were all exceptional comics during the Keystone Movie days of the ‘20s; each had his own comic demeanor and personality on which to build a special recognizable brand of humor. Lloyd's device was to accidentally fall into dangerous situations and then with remarkable luck get out of them alive. Arbuckle's wide-eyed innocent look made him the perpetual fall guy for perilous situations. Keaton, a supreme athlete in his own right, capitalized on spectacular physical feats as his "great stone face" registered nothing. And Chase, with his clipped mustache and slicked down hair, became the brainy comic who would win out by his wits.

The trio of films will be shown at 7:15 p.m., preceded as usual at 6 p.m. by a gourmet buffet created in homage to the silent film era by chef Erik Karvonen of Fitzgerald’s restaurant in Eagle River. The cost is still $15 for dinner and the movie, $3.50 for the movie alone. Reservations for limited seating for the buffet should be made at least a day in advance by calling the Calumet Theatre at 337-2610.

15. SEMINAR OCT. 1 ON REMOVING WATER POLLUTANTS

Bruce E. Rittmann, John Evans Professor of Environmental Engineering at Northwestern University, will give a talk, "The Hydrogen-Based Membrane Biofilm Reactor for Removing Oxidized Contaminants," on Friday, Oct. 1, at 3 p.m. in Dow 642.

Among the most challenging pollutants for the treatment of drinking water and groundwater are those whose common characteristic is that they are chemically oxidized. The classic oxidized pollutants are nitrate and nitrite, and emerging oxidized pollutants include perchlorate, bromate, chlorinated solvents, many metals and radionuclides. In almost every case, microbiological reduction leads to innocuous products.

Rittmann will describe a novel biological treatment process that should be able to reduce almost all of the oxidized pollutants, the hydrogen-based Membrane Biofilm Reactor (MBfR). Hydrogen gas is fed to the inside of hollow fiber membranes, diffuses through the membrane wall, and is then consumed by biofilm bacteria that use it as their electron-donor substrate while reducing one or more of the oxidized pollutants as their electron-acceptor substrate. Over the past few years, Rittmann has carried out extensive studies to evaluate the fundamentals and the application of the MBfR for reduction of nitrate and perchlorate, and has also begun work on a larger suite of oxidized contaminants. This presentation reviews his results, which include laboratory and pilot-scale studies on treatment performance, fundamental research on the microbial ecology and kinetics of the perchlorate-reducing bacteria, and the potential of the MBfR for other oxidized contaminants. The presentation illustrates how it is possible to integrate research and development that spans both the basics and commercialization.

Rittmann's talk is supported by the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering as part of the Association of Environmental Engineering & Science Professors Distinguished Lecturer Tour. The Environmental Engineering Graduate Seminar series for the whole semester can be viewed at http://www.cee.mtu.edu/grad/seminar/Seminar.html
