4.M. REPORT OF DEATHS

The following deaths were reported:

1. S. Thomas Beversdorf, Professor of Music, Bloomington, died February 15, 1981.
2. Lester C. Oppenlander, Assistant Professor of Education, IUPUI, retired, died February 12, 1981.

Trustee Black called upon Vice President Gros Louis who introduced Dr. Howard Mehlinger, new Dean of the School of Education, and asked for his comments.

Dr. Mehlinger first thanked members of the Board of Trustees, President Ryan, and Vice President Gros Louis for their confidence in asking him to accept the position of Dean. He regards this opportunity as both an honor and a challenge and promised to do his very best to serve as capably as possible. He noted that the School had been served very well indeed, since former Dean Gousha relinquished the position, by Acting Dean Larry Brown and his staff.

Dean Mehlinger continued, saying that, even though it is not the perfect occasion on which to speak of plans for the future, he did believe certain matters should be noted. First, most everyone knows that elementary schools and secondard schools are facing a great many difficulties and challenges at this time. Many of their problems are old ones and include their continuing struggle to provide equal educational opportunities for all students and meeting the challenge to provide to students, who graduate from high school, the skills and knowledge to enable them to find rewarding careers and assume roles as responsible citizens.

Some of their problems are new and different. These include efforts to close buildings, instead of building new ones, and efforts to displace teachers instead of hiring additional ones.

Dr. Mehlinger said that in his opinion the adequacy of elementary and secondary schools in Indiana is one of the responsibilities of the University School of Education. Interestingly enough, the problems of the School of Education sometimes parallel the problems of the elementary and secondary schools. For instance, Americans are not fully satisfied that Schools of Education are adequately training elementary and secondary teachers and the School of Education faculty, like the secondary schools, is declining in number. Dr. Mehlinger added that the problems of all of the schools can be addressed from pretty much the same direction and certainly cannot be met by individuals acting in isolation. On the contrary, he believes strongly that the School of Education must continue to forge partnerships with a variety of groups. It must continue its efforts of cooperation, stemming from the merger, between the education faculties in Bloomington and Indianapolis and as the mission of that core campus develops, it must increase efforts to better link together the regional campuses with the core campus. Further, he believes that the School of Education can do much more than it has in coordinating its efforts with that of other schools, departments, and units on each of the campuses. He would further extend the linkage with other teaching education institutions in the state, with the Department of Public Instruction, and with professional associations so that all together, in a cooperative endeavor, they can meet the needs of education within Indiana.
