SEEN THOSE FLASHING
LIGHTS LATELY?
CANYON (AP) — The president
of West Texas State University said
Wednesday that underlying reasons
affecting all aspects of education in
the state are behind the faculty sen
ate’s desire that he be fired.
According to a recent survey, fac
ulty members favor the dismissal of
President Ed Roach because of cost
overruns on the new president’s
home. Results of the survey showed
that 87 percent of the faculty no
longer have confidence in Roach,
said Don Eaivick, faculty senate pres
ident.
“f feel I’m speaking for the major
ity of the faculty when I say we want
a new president,” Envick said Tues
day.
Roach said Wednesday that he
understands the faculty’s anger but
he feels it is a result of the strenuous
state of Texas education.
“I think the uncertainty among
faculty members in the state is high,”
he said. “A lot of the things they are
saying are symbolic of underlying
problems with Texas education.”
Roach joined the university two
years ago after leaving a department
head post at Southwest Texas State
University. Since coming to WTSU,
he has implemented a 16-month
planning process to streamline the
university and the administration,
he said.
“We made some changes,” he
said. “Whenever you make changes
there are winners and losers. A uni
versity is not like a business. You
can’t just let someone go in a univer
sity.”
Roach has been under fire since
midsummer when he and his wife
moved into the new president’s man
sion. 1 he campus had been without
a president’s home since 1 972.
The home originally was bud
geted for $494,000, but $991,000
was spent on the 7,801-square foot
home. The cost did not include land
scaping.
Roach said the home would be
used for a variety of university f unc
tions, including fund raising.
On Oct. 91, the Coordinating
Board of the Texas College and Uni-
versity System voted to disallow
$2 1 1,000 of the cost and told regents
to repay the sum. Regents have not
announced a plan for repaying the
funds.
Roach said he had made his com
ments to the coordinating board
about the house and didn’t want to
discuss it I m t her.
“It certainly was bad timing,” he
said of the decision to build the
home.
Envick said the cost overruns en
raged faculty members, who were
pruning their budgets to adapt to
slate-mandated cuts.
“The house sits out there as a kind
of symbol — of arrogance,” Envick
said. “It has damaged the image of
our university and placed doubt in
the minds of alumni that we can
manage money.”
Roach said university alumni and
the student senate have voted over
whelmingly to endorse his efforts at
improving the university.
Oilman T. Boone Pickens, presi
dent of the board of regents, said
Roach certainly doesn’t lack confi
dence from the board and criticized
the faculty senate for the survey.

HOUS TON (AP) — The ailing economy and
tight controls on health care costs are making it
harder to provide free medical care to those who
cannot af ford to pay, some Houston-area doctors
say.
Dr. Jorge Pinera put an advertisment in a
small local newspaper three years ago telling his
patients not to worry if they were unemployed or
were without health insurance because they
would be treated f ree of charge.
Pinera said he still feels that same obligation —
but he isn’t repeating his advertisment.
“I can’t help all of them,” he said.
Pinera said he has no extra money to off set the
costs of treating large numbers of poor patients
for f ree.
The local economy, battered by the oil price
collapse, and stringent controls on health care
costs instituted by government and business have
squeezed excess dollars out of the system.
Dr. Betty Stephenson, president of the Harris
County Medical Society, said she has decided not
to reactivate the society’s “recession-distressed
program” for the newly unemployed.
The program, which brought Houston na
tional recognition in 1989, offered to find doc
tors for people who recently lost their jobs and
health insurance.
