a USOE fellow in the
sociology department and
pursued doctoral studies in
educational management

Increased services for spe
cial students and direct in
volvement with students are
two goals of the University's
new associate dean of student
affairs
Dr. William R Mendenhall
became the new dean on Aug,
1 after being approved by the
University System Board of
Regents July 13.
In an interview with The Red
and Black. Mendenhall dis
cussed his goals for the
division of Student Affairs.
"I'd like for the division of
Student Affairs to become a
pro-active unit as it relates to
student concerns and student
needs We have a good
division, but we need emphasis
on services for special stu
dents. We need some women's
programs and programs for
handicapped students
“We’re doing some of those
things now with minority
programs in Student Activities,
but we need more How we'll
do it I’m not quite sure—it
depends on the strength of the
people we've got
"I'd also like to see the
division become a sounding
board for student concerns I
think of myself as a student
advocate.”
Mendenhall said he would
particularly like to simplify the
administrative process for
students and enhance degree
programs
A lot of his time weald be
spent in direct involvement
with students, he said.
"My administrative style is
to spend a lot of time out of the
office You can't operate in an
office and expect people to
come to you.
"This has been my back
ground There's one problem in
that here I have more
administrative responsibility
for other units. That will cut
down somewhat on my time,
but I plan to block out certain
times for students, whether
that means going to the
fraternities, residence halls,
whatever."
Part of that administrative
responsibility includes working
with committees such as the
Board of Student Communica
tions and the allocations
committee, he said

Police cruiser
hits Dalton youth
By TOM BARTON
City editor
A University police c* uiser, en route to the University’s Health
Services, struck a six-year-old Dalton youth who was crossing
Lumpkin Street near Baldwin after the Georgia-Clemson football
game last Saturday afternoon.
Admitted to St. Mary’s Hospital was Eric Vaughn, who was
listed in satisfactory condition His mother, Pat Vaughn, was
treated for a scratch on the arm and r eleased. The incident was
investigated by the Athens police.
According to police reports, an unconscious woman was being
treated by two physicians near Sanford Stadium after the game
An ambulance that was requested was re-routed to another
emergency, but the driver told Sgt. John Cleveland of the
University police that he could transport the woman to Health
Services. Both physicians accompanied the girl in the back of the
cruiser.
With both lights and sirens on, the cruiser drove north on
Lumpkin with the four rows of out-going, post-game traffic.
When the cruiser passed Baldwin, a boy reportedly "darted
out” in front of the vehicle and was struck
The accident was reported by two Atlanta television stations
over the weekend, one with a filmed report
The coverage upset several University officials.
WAGA^TV, Channel 5’s Ken Roberts reported on Sunday’s noon
news report that "a woman was killed and a child hospitalized’’
when they were struck by a University police cruiser.
WXIA-TV, Channel ll’s Joe Washington reported on the
Saturday evening news that their cameraman was interfered
with by University police and students from filming the incident
on Lumpkin. The filmed report featured a hand that repeatedly
covered up the camera lens, and several bystanders who made
obscene gestures to the cameraman
Chief David Saye of the University police felt that the filmed
report "sensationalized quite a bit,” and "provoked some ill
feelings" among the spectators who reacted to the cameraman
running close to the victim and blocking rescue operations.
Norman Bassett Jr., of the University’s Public Relations
Department, said he personally was "kind of hacked" about the
filmed report.
"It sounded like we had storm troopers for the University
policemen, running people down," Bassett said.
Sgt. Steve Almond of the University police added that the
hands which blocked the lens of the Channel 11 camera did not
belong to policemen.
"The person who was blocking the camera was wearing a
brown shirt, and we were wearing short-sleeved blue shirts that
day," Almond said.
A pokesman for the Channel 11 news department could not be
reached for comment.
But a spokesman for Channel 5 said the station received its
information reporting the death of the woman from "one of the
wire services." The spokesman could not remember which wire
service was used.

work that Dwight (Douglas)
has been doing I'll be
co-ordinating things within the
division. That'll take consider
able time."
The allocations committee
was a subject of controversy
last year, just as the entire
allocations process has been
controversial In recent years.
Last year certain student
leaders, particularly in the
Student Senate, accused Doug
las of taking the allocation of
student activity fees away
from the students when he set
up an allocations committee
composed of students and
administrators
The senate was not united in
its outcry against Douglas, but
those senators who did protest
were aided by other students,
particularly an independent
organization called the Task
Force on Student Activity
Fees
Although students outnum
bered administrators by one on
the committee, protestors said
Douglas could handpick stu
dents, thus nullifying the
student voice. Douglas respon
ded to that last year by
offering the student committee
seats to members of the senate
allocations committee
Since he will be heading the
allocations committee. Men
denhall may well be embroiled
in similar controversy this
year He said he does not know
if he’ll be able to resolve the
conflict this year, and he has
not yet given a lot of thought to
the allocations process
“I’m not into it yet. I know
what some of the concerns are.
I prefer not to be biased by
what has gone on before
"We had less than an ideal
system. It's stiU probably less
than ideal ”
Mendenhall said he did not
know if he would be appointing
committee members
"I assumed it was a standing
committee "
Though Douglas expressed
hope last year that some
committee members would
return to serve this year, he
must still resolve the issue of
how to select students for the
committee. Also, one admini
strator on last year’s commit
tee no longer holds the position
which prompted Douglas to
appoint him
Part of this year's commit
tee will likely be made up of
new members then. But
Mendenhall would like to see
some committee members
serve again this year
"You have to have some
continuity; otherwise, you in
vent the wheel every year. You
also have to have adjustment,
though. You don’t want to
become stagnant.”
