The director of projects pos ition is being sought by Joe Carter, Cheryl Fricke, Mary Ellen Martin, James McLean and Jesse Vallejo. The MSC Council will announce appointments March 3. The appoin tees will take office April 4. Through interviews, the council tries to “get some insight into qual ifications and find out what their (the applicants’) goals are,” Mike Hatch, vice president of administra tion, said. The council looks to see if the ap plicant has had any management experience, Hatch said. The amount of time a person will have to devote to work will also be considered when filling positions. Course load, extra curricular ac tivities and part time jobs will be looked at before a decision is made. By JUDY BAGGETT Staff Writer Neglecting to plan ahead for technological changes often results in unexpected side effects, Joseph Coates, technology assessment ex pert, said repeatedly in the final SCONA lecture Saturday. “No one is concerned with all as pects of major problems we face,” he said to the 100-person audience. At least once a month, there is a case, such as food poisoning, of major public concern. Coates said our technological problems could be because “we have in fact, moved into a world that is totally man made,” yet we are regulated by rules made as though “we lived in the old world of nature. ” Every aspect of your life is totally manmade, Coates told the audi ence, and then asked if anyone had completely escaped from a man made environment lately. We need changes in the man agement of technology, he said, be cause present planning procedures are inadequate. Right now, only three questions are answered be fore an innovation is put on the mar ket. -Can it be done? -Will it sell? -Is it safe? More foresight is needed, he said again. Coates stressed that all major so cial issues are caused by technology. He gave an example of the effect of birth control pills on morality and women’s working market. He asked those in the audience who had close friends unmarried but living with someone to raise their hands. When only about a dozen re sponded, he laughingly attributed the lack of response to “the cultural lag of Texas. ” About 10 to 20 per cent of college students are shacking up with someone, he estimated. “A technology has wrought a so cial revolution and no one was watching,” he added. Another issue is poisoning from canned foods. When the canned food industry scales up production to meet public demand, sometimes there is a technological failure and bad food is dumped on the market. Coates said society today has three technological needs. One is the need for public wisdom in policies and programs since public officials sometimes ignore situations that they can’t predict. The second is flexible techniques. Our system of government is too crisp. “The world is so complex that we need sublety," he said. Foresight and flexibility are needed, he said, but to a bureaucrat these spell trou ble and inconvenience. The final need, he said, isonefor a feedback system, which would better inform decision makers of public opinion alsout policies. - A9S By 1 Sta “Mr. Supermai I is Hiolo b> David Kimmel SCONA speaker Joseph F.
