UT criticized over lack of night classed AUSTIN (AP) — Every Tuesday night, Steve Tipton leaves his day job and drives to an Apple Computer fa cility for a three-hour class. Tipton, a National Guard re cruiter who aspires to be a colonel, is happy to have found an evening MBA program — offered by St. Ed ward’s University. But he steams about the way the University of Texas responded when he asked about evening master’s of busi ness administration programs. “I called and they said, ‘Night school? You must be kidding,”’ Tipton, 45, recalled in an interview with the Austin American-States- man published Tuesday. “There’s just an arrogance there at being ‘the’ university. I guess we’re not their market,” he said. Some local businesses and res idents complain UT does little for adults who would like to continue their education after working hours. St. Edwards, a private college, was accommodating and understanding of his schedule^ Tipton said. UT is not the only major uni versity that doesn’t have tradition al night school. Officials said they are working harder to provide al ternatives for working adults. UT offers a two-year, $26,000 executive MBA program known as Option II on two Fridays and Sat urdays a month. The class also meets in four week-long sessions spread out during the two years. Tipton and several of his class mates said they can not take off work on Fridays, so the UT pro gram is not an option. Others in the city’s business community say there are wide spread needs the state’s biggest public university is best equipped to serve. Demands have accelerat ed as Austin has become a high- tech center, drawing more and more well-educated adults. In response, UT has added Fri- day-Saturday master’s degree programs in software engineer ing and in commercializing sci ence and technology. It also of fers a number of evening courses, some at the graduate level. Many cater to managers and high-tech workers, including courses that earn students certificates rather than degrees. But many Austin high-tech work ers make a 45-minute drive to South west Texas State University in San mperime litters wei T tried >ought Tr . “We fee hole Person, so Jit to see il 0/ Marcos to pursue a master’s ino® puter science or an MBA. “Our average MBA sti/di’/it> s someone in the high-tecliinte- try in Austin who wants management,” SWT Jerome Supple said.
