Organizational structure explained
University administration here to serve student
By SANFORD RUSSO
Battalion Staff
A university is a strange animal in
the mind of a systems analyzer.
It’s not really a business, although
there are money concerns. It’s not
just a place of education, although
there are classes held daily year in
and year out. It’s not a service, al
though there are plenty of helping
agencies around. It’s not a research
foundation, although research is a
major occupation for many univer
sity employes.
A university of any size is a combi
nation of all these things, and what’s
more, the bigger a university gets,
the more complex and confusing the
organizational charts become.
When President Jack K. Williams
came to A&M he had a challenging
task awaiting him. He had to guide
through its growing pains a univer
sity that was to become the fastest
growing institute of higher learning
in the United States. As any parent
will tell, that’s no easy job.
Williams came to A&M in
November 1970, to replace Earl
Rudder who had died the previous
year. Like any administrator,
Williams set about looking at what
existed and redesigned it to be work
able under his hand.
Through the retirement of vice
presidents, positions have been con
solidated until where there were
seven vice presidencies there are
now three.The remaining three are
executive vice president of adminis
tration, vice president of academic
affairs and vice president of student
services.
During the summer of 1976, Dr.
Williams has had a number of heart
attacks which have made it impossi
ble for him to carry on the duties of
president. Presently Williams is
listed in fair condition at Houston
Methodist Hospital and is com
municating with administrative offi
cers.
During Williams’ leave of ab
sence, the duties of president of both
A&M and the A&M system (consist
ing of A&M and its research an
nexes, Prairie View A&M, Tarleton
State, and the Galveston campus)
rest in the hands of W. C. Freeman,
executive vice president for adminis
tration.
Freeman was appointed to act for
the president by A&M’s nine-
member Board of Regents July 29.
He will retain these duties until the
Board changes his status.
Freeman’s job as executive vice
president of administration for the
system is only a part-time position

because he is also the chief adminis
trative officer for A&M University.
“I’ll take as much time as it takes to
get the job done,” Freeman said.
As administrative chief. Freeman
rides herd on all the business that
takes place at A&M. Such people as
the university comptroller, Clark
Diebel; the supervisor and coor
dinator of university maintenance,
purchasing, management services
and systems construction, Howard
Vestal; systems physical plant,
Logan Council; and the system’s
personnel officer, Ray Smith report
directly to Freeman.
“What we re going to do is utilize
the talents and abilities of people on
staff through the delegation of re
sponsibility,” Freeman said in a re
cent interview when asked how he
expected to handle the business con
cerns of both the University, which
had been under the jurisdiction of
retiring business vice president Tom
Cherry, and the system.
Freeman came to A&M in 1947
and “has just been present” since
that date moving into his current po
sition. He received his B.S. from
A&M in Agricultural Administra
tion.
Basically, Freeman sees his job as
coordination and mobilization of
funds received for the University’s
operation from the student, the fed
eral and state governments, research
sponsors and donators while staying
within the boundaries of rules and
regulations set by these agents.
To help keep the University
within boundaries. Systems Attor
ney James Bond checks over all con
tracts and agreements made by Uni
versity personnel or directors. The
University is currently looking for
another man to work in the office.
Bond joined A&M March 1 and is
replacing Judge James Amis, who re
tires September 1.
In Freeman’s mind, Williams has
been simplifying and streamlining
the organizational structure of A&M
since his arrival on campus.
An area where there has been
tremendous reshuffling of names
and responsibilities is student serv
ices, under the direction of Dr. John
Koldus. Koldus came to A&M at the
first hint of the enrollment boom,
1972. Since that time Koldus has not
only taken the duties of dean of stu
dents but also acquired the duties of
all agencies that deal with student
wants and needs outside the class
room.
Anything that receives student
services fees, aside from the Athletic
Department (which is another
story), is generally listed as Koldus’
responsibility.
(There are some things at A&M
which are handled through commit
tees which answer directly to the
president. Some, like the student
newspaper, could be considered
student services. Others could be
considered administrative like study
of new regulations. Still others
should be academic, like choice of
Centennial lecturers. But if you’re
th e president you can organize
things as you are allowed by your
bosses.)
The people working in the student
services office with Dr. Koldus are
Howard S. Perry, who deals with
administrative problems, associate
vice-president; Gen. Ormand
Simpson, assistant vice president;
and Larry M. Ludewig, administra
tive assistant to the vice president.
Koldus then has division directors
who handle the day-to-day function
ing of the different services available
on campus. The division directors
are O. L. Luther, University Police
chief and one-time Texas Banger; J.
Wayne Stark, Memorial Student
Center Council and Directorate
which does student union pro
gramming; Dr. Claude Goswick,
Health Center; Dr. Charles W.
Powell, Student Affairs; Dr. Wade
Birch, Personal Counseling; Dr.
Carolyn Adair, Student Activities;
Ken Robison, Student Legal Ad
visor; and Col. Tom Parsons, Com
mandant of the Corps.
Each of these people directly
serve the students in a face-to-face
situation and have back-up staffs.
Not to be overlooked, is the
Academic Affairs branch.
This is overseen by Dr. John C.
Calhoun, who stepped into his posi
tion in 1971. He also has done plenty
of reshuffling in the intervening
years. He is in charge of curriculum,
research and promotion of educa
tion.
Working in his office are Dr.
Robert Wainerdi, associate vice-
president and Dr. Haskell Monroe,
dean of faculties. There are several
directors under Calhoun. They are
Leatha Malloy, Educational Infor
mation Services; Dr. Charles
McCandless, Academic Planning
and Services; Dr. James Bradley,
Continuing Education; Dr. Robert
Berg, University Research; and Dr.
Irene Hoadley, Libraries.
