But competition among universities for minority scholars is great, and the student minority population, while small at the U., is producing less university graduates nationally, she said. The lack of minority representation in the student population may be one reason minority teachers decline invitations to teach at the U., but a more prevalent obstacle to minority faculty recruitment is a reputation Salt Lake City harbors.

The "Annual Report of Auxiliary Enterprises Financial Operations," prepared by the various auxiliary units and by the U. accounting department, was presented to members of the U. Institutional Council on Tuesday. ' Council members unanimously approved the report. In accordance with the Utah State Board of Regents' policy, a report of auxiliary enterprises (such as parking services and residential living) is required to be submitted each year to the Regents. Regents request the report from each institution of higher education because, in the past, many auxiliaries at other institutions have experienced serious financial trouble, Walt Gnemi, U. vice president for Administrative Services, said. The report details expenditures and income for all of the U.'s auxiliary operations as well as specific operations during 1990. It also predicts these for 1991. "All U. auxiliaries are operating within university and Regent regulations," Gnemi said. "In my opinion, they are all well managed and provide a reasonable level of service for the charges they make." All U. auxiliary enterprises combined earned more than $32.2 million in 1990 in total revenue from sales and services, student fees, and other areas. After spending more than $28.6 million on costs, the U. earned more than $3.6 million in net revenues. "(The auxiliaries are making enough money to make payments on their principal debt and to pay for their operating expenses," Gnemi said. Under the U. Auxiliary and Campus Facilities Revenue Bond System guidelines, any revenue from a participating auxiliary in excess of expenditures and any transfers must be given to a bond trustee, Gnemi said. see "revenue" on page four Utah public, higher ed Researchers to study salary increases differ exercise-smokin- g link Susan Williams Chronicle Staff Writer By Salaries for Utah higher education faculty increased at a slower rate than those for Utah public education teachers, according two reports. The Utah Foundation reported that teacher salaries were raised, on the average, by 6.7 percent, to but with the normal yearly increment added, "the total pay increase for most Utah teachers in 1990-9- 1 averaged $2,151, or 10.6." State Board of Regents memorandum stated that most Utah institutions of higher education were allocated a 4.5 percent salary increase. However, a 1990-9- 1 With this allocation, plus funds from various other sources, the University of Utah faculty averaged a 6.61 percent increase in salaries. Other Utah institutions of higher education had salary increases ranging from 5.31 percent to 9.49 percent. W. Ralph Hardy, director of Budget and Resource Planning, said the increase was greater than 4.5 percent because money from internal sources was also used. "It was very difficult to get that much," Hardy said. Colleges from the U. campus reallocated funds to increase salaries. A significant amount of funds had already been reallocated, he said. "That is not a painless process," he said. Don Tucker, member of the U. faculty budget and planning committee and math professor, said the additional money also came from "cannibalization." Cannibalization includes process reallocation of funds and the inability to fill open positions. Departments which do not fill all their positions still has the same amount of money to spend on salary, Tucker said. The Utah Foundation report also said, "Legislation adopted by the 1990 Utah Legislature provided that each professional see "salaries" on page five groups which consist of chronic smokers who are interested in By Melissa Garber Chronicle Staff Writer A team of researchers from the University of Utah has developed a study to test the effects aerobic exercise has on the ability of older chronic smokers to quit smoking. Robert Hill, professor of educational psychology said, "It's part of a continuing effort to improve the quality of life in older people." Researchers want to examine the relationship between aerobic exercise and quitting smoking. Hill said that past studies have shown smokers who are trying to quit have an easier time stopping when they are practicing a regujar exercise routine. Michael Rigdon is of the grant and professor of family and preventative medicine. He will examine behavior patterns of the smokers. A grant from the Andruss Foundation, enabled the team of researchers to set up three test quitting smoking. They must have smoked at least five packs a day and be at least 50 years old The study is unique in the fact that very few studies have been done on older people who want to quit smoking. Hill believes that exercise will be an effective way to not only increase the health of the participants, but he said, "exercise is totally incompatible with smoking." "Exercise is a fairly effective mechanism to help prevent relapses once people have already stopped smoking," Hill said. In the first group researchers tested the participants by placing them in aerobic exercise to see if exercise alone would help them quit smoking. Hill said, "Aerobic exercise itself doesn't seem to help them actually quit." But he added, "It did improve lifestyle." The second test group was put into smoking-cessatio- n training see "smoking" on page four Non-Prof- it Org. U.S. Postage Paid Permit No. 1529 Salt Lake City, UT |
