received a 15,000 grant to
submit a proposal that could
net the school $2 million in
cash and equipment from
IBM
The management
department, headed by
Kichard Huseman, will
submit a research proposal
on the management of in
formation systems on Jan
15. IMS
If IBM approves the
proposal, the University’s
business school would
become one of 12 business
schools in the nation to
receive a grant through the
IBM Program Support for
Education in the
Management of Information
Systems
“I think we have a good
chance at getting the
award." Huseman said "We
have a core of three
professors working on the
proposal, plus other faculty
in the business college are
involved in segments of the
project.”
The school would receive
$1 million worth of IBM
equipment of its choice
during the 1965-86 academic-
year The remaining $1
million would be used to
increase the number of post

faculty qualifications
"There is a new priority
from the administration for
recruiting private grants,"
said Albert Niemi, the dean
of the business school
"We don’t have a lot of
outside support now , which
is true of most business
schools, but I felt we could do
more, so I've asked the
department heads to be a lot
more aggressive,” Niemi
said
We have the best faculty
of any business school in the
South in terms of
publications in leading
academic journals, so this
faculty should be able to get
the grants to support this,"

increase is a beefed-up DUI Task Force

Deoole are continuing to drink and drive

enforcement efforts more drunk drivers are being ap^
prehended." Painter said
Detective Melvin Perdue, a Clark Countv crime prevention
officer, said that there have been only 297 DUI arrests in the
areas of the county outside of Athens
"Perhaps they are apprehending them in the city, before
they get out into the county. Perdue said
He said that the responsibilities of police officers in
unincorporated parts of Clarke County are not divided as
they are in Athens, where police have specialized units
monitoring such things as possible DUIs. traffic control and
general crime prevention
Painter said that the Athens police DUI task force monitors
only possible DUI offenders
Painter said that even though she thought alcohol con
sumption is increasing in Athens, there has been a reduction
in the number of alcohol related accidents
12 8 percent of all accidents were alcohol related in 1981
she said “In 1983 this figure dropped to 6 7 percent "

on such a special occasion."
Pearson said
Pearson, who argued the
case in front of many of his
students and area attorneys,
said the change of en
vironment and the capacity

students, professors and
local residents attended the
sessions from 10 a m to
noon
