Wisconsin Faculty
For Effecting
Means Suggested for Cos
Cutting, Efficiency
Maintenance.
Nine recommendations aimed
"to assist administrative officers
in meeting emergencies and effect
ing economies" during the coming
two years were adopted by the
University of Wisconsin faculty re
cently. By their action, the faculty
members revealed their willingness
to co-operate in every way possible
to reduce the cost of the univer
sity to the state, and at the same
time preserve its educational value
to Wisconsin s citizens.
Constituting the first move in
the job of retrenchment and reor
ganization needed to balance the
university's 1933-35 budget, the
recommendations, which were con
tained in a special report of the
university committee made during
the past year at the request of the
faculty, are as follews:
1. On Maintenance of Staff:
That the dismissal of members of
the staff of the rank of professor
or associate professor prior to the
retirement age be for cause only;
that if it becomes necessary to
curtail extensively the work of a
department, the associate profes
sors and professors involved should
s i be retained, posibly at a reduced
salary, until they can secure other
positions; that deserving assistant
professors whose terms expire
hould be reappointed; that staff
members in the lower ranks exhib
iting qualities of character and in
tellect which would justify their
holding ultimately a permanent
place in a university of the first
rank be retained; and that lower
rank faculty members doing meri'
torious work but not of the high
est type be retained as far as pos
sible.
2. On Salary Waivert for In
structional Staff: That in deter
mining the scale of salary waivers,
sufficient allowance be made to
permit promotions in rank and
normal salaries of particularly
meritorious members of the statf,
and as far as possible to meet com
petition from outside the univer
sity; that the waivers be based on
a sliding scale of the type used
for income taxation; that the low
est bracket receive a waiver com
mensurate with the decrease in the
cost of living, the scle progress
ing arithmetically on higher sal
aries; that the waiver scale be low
ered for members of the staff who
are placed on reduced normal sal
ary arid schedule of work.
3. On Staff Replacements: That
the policy throughout the univer
sity for the next biennium be not
to replace staff members who
leave the institution, wherever the
essential work can be adequately
carried on, by the remaining mem
bers of the staff or by new men
of lower rank.
4. On the Library: That the li
.. brary receive no cut which would

scholarly activities.
5. On Laboratory Equipment
That departments with labora
tories examine their experimental
tecnnique ana equipment wnn a
view to making savings wherever
rossibie.
6. On Teachina Load: .That
teaching load of staff members
should not foe increased materially
because to do so would involve ae
creased teaching efficiency.
7. On Methods of Instruction
That the lecture method of inslruc
tion be not used to replace other
methods of instruction except
where it is believed to be equally
effective: that lectures should be
supplemented by quizzes; and that
a sharper distinction be drawn ne
tween science courses designed for
general culture and those ior pio
fessional purposes.
8. On Curtailment of Expan
sion: That durine the period of re
coverv the university should set it
self against all forms or expansion
involving additional expense witn
out corresponding curtailments.
9. On Multiplication of Courses
That committees should be elected
within each of the seven divisions
of specialized study, such as bio
logical, chemical, etc., to deal with
the thinness, diversification and
duplication of courses, and that
the chairmen of tnese aivisionai
committees shall constitute a com
mittee to unify and correlate the
recommendations or tnese Division
al committees and to report them
to the faculty.
Resides the recommendations,
the renort nresented information
relative to the present financial
situation ot tne university, u
formulated criteria for the ap
r.mis.al of the university's various
activities, such as teaching, re
search, and extension.
The report pointed out that in
the current hiennium. specific fund
appropriations and revolving funds
were reduced aDout ouu,uw. ru
the coming biennium, 1933-35, the
total cut below the original appro
priations from the state for the
1931-33 biennium is ?2,445,0O0, ap
nrovimatelv 29 percent, while the
operating fund for the coming bi
ennium, from wnicn most salaries
and wages are paid, is reduced 27.5
percent.
Pointing out tnat tne tnree ma
ior activities of a ereat university
are residence teaching, research,
nnri extension, the report main
tains that the state needs men
trained in every vocation in wnicn
specialized knowledge and training
are necessary for successful serv
ice of the community. It needs also
a body of citizens prepared to as
sume leadership in the social, polit
ical, and cultural life of the day.
To furnish the instruction nec
essary to these ends, the major
nrt of the expenditures of an
American university both in time
and money are and should be
made, the committee declares,
tino- out that a university will
not be a great teaching institution
unless its faculty is emmrai
scholarship and research.

ly conscious of the problems with
which teachers are n ow oeing
confronted in the new order of
things and are bendine every ef
fort to prepare our students in a
way that will not only enable them
te appreciate and see clearly their
responsiblities but to meet them in
a satisfactory manner."
Dr. Matzen went on to show how
administrative training for school
supervisors and superintendents is
ot the greatest necessity if the
schools which they direct are to
fulfill the responsibilities thrust
on them by this social decentrali
zation. He outlined in a general
way what this training should bo.
As to general and pre-profes-sional
training, the successful su
perintendent should be acquainted
with th("Hcndenciea of economic
and business practices.' In order
to safe-guard the school from par
tisan politics and to une'rrstand the

"Some of my listeners may
think, Dr. Matzen concluded, "that
the trainine1 I have outlined for
superintendents is a large order.
Yes, it probably is, and should be,
because there is no single worker
in any community who is doing a
work that is more far-reaching in
its influences on citizenship de
velopment than that of the super
intendent or scnoois.
"It is my prediction that when
boards of education and communi
ties become aware of the distinct
service it is possible for a trained
superintendent to renaer as com
pared with services of one lacking
such training, thev will investigate
thoroughly the qualifications of
applicants wno are Deing con

have mentioned.
