4 TUESDAY, APRIL 6, 2004 NCSU looks to Foxs follower Plans makeup of selection committee BY AMY THOMSON STAFF WRITERS With its chancellor on the verge of heading west, N.C. State University might have some head hunting to do. While she hasn’t officially been offered a job, Chancellor Marye Anne Fox has announced her intention to take over the chan cellorship at the University of California-San Diego, forcing N.C. State to launch an arduous nationwide search for her replace ment. Under the code of the UNC sys tem, a committee of N.C. State stu dents, faculty, trustees and alumni will have to select three equally acceptable candidates. Joni Worthington, communica tions director for the UNC system, said the exact makeup of the com mittee will be discussed in the next few weeks by system President Molly Broad and Peaches Blank, chairwoman of N.C. State’s Board of Trustees. Cynthia Bonner, UNC-system THE Daily Crossword By Robert H.

The BOG will then vote whether to approve or reject the recom mendation. The board also would have to approve the new chancel lor’s salary. Fox was the second highest paid UNC-system chancellor behind UNC-Chapel Hill’s James Moeser. Fox’s salary for the 2003-04 school year was $248,225. One of officials’ main considera tions will be to increase the diver sity of the committee. “Obviously, we want to make (the committee) as representative of the campus community as possible,” said Katie Perry, N.C. State’s senior vice provost for academic affairs. Bonner said it is still too early to speculate on who would be on the committee or how much the selec tion process will cost.

The firms typically charge about a third of the incoming executive’s salary. Universities also have to pay for advertising, transportation and other interview-related expenses. If the new chancellor receives a paycheck similar to Fox’s, the firm used to find him will charge closer to SBO,OOO. Bonner said there are advan tages to using such a group, partic ularly when members of a search committee already are busy per forming their everyday jobs. “The search firms are experts at identifying candidates who are successful in their current posi tions and might otherwise not be looking for a job. “That’s not to say that commit tee members couldn’t do that, but they all have other jobs.” Assistant State & National Editor Stephanie Jordan contributed to this article.

David Dreier, R-Calif., said the United States was willing to help deter mine who was behind the series of bombings and shootings. Uzbek authorities are still hunt ing for those suspected of carrying out the attacks. “How many? If we knew that, then we’d be the happiest people in the world,” Prosecutor-General spokeswoman Svetlana Artikova said. Officials have said unspecified international terror groups were responsible for the attacks, which mainly targeted police, , killing 10 officers and four civilians. Thirty three alleged terrorists were killed in four days of explosions, suicide attacks and assaults on police that began March 28. Dreier said the attacks should Judge dismisses two claims in APS battle BY SARA LEWKOWICZ STAFF WRITER An Orange County Superior Court judge threw out claims Monday by both sides of the ongo ing legal battle between the Animal Protection Society and critics Judith Reitman and Elliot Cramer. Judge John R. Jolly Jr. dismissed a defamation countersuit filed by APS in response to a suit filed by Cramer and Reitman along with Reitman and Cramer’s claim of breach of fiduciary duty. Barry Nakell, attorney for Reitman and Cramer, said Jolly did not give any reason for the dis missal of the claims. Jolly did not dismiss the defamation countersuit filed by APS directors and Laura Walters but did acknowledge the difficulty the plaintiffs would encounter in proving their case. “We will defend those claims at iaihj (Bar Hrrl P.O.

A U.S. State Department report on human rights in Uzbekistan released in February said the gov ernment was committing “numer ous serious abuses.” At least four people died in cus tody last year because of mistreat ment by authorities, the report said, and between 5,300 and 5,800 people were in prisons for political or religious reasons. Still, the United States and Uzbekistan have been close allies since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, and the United States is using an air base near the Afghan border, a key asset in ousting the Taliban from power in late 2001. Dreier said the U.S. delegation was “very encouraged from the reports that we have been seeing in the area of human rights,” but did n’t provide any examples. Uzbekistan and the United trial,” Nakell said. “I believe that the court probably held that the First Amendment applies to the claims of APS for defamation. I don’t understand why the court let that go to trial.” Former APS President Pat Beyle expressed her relief at the court’s decision. “I am so relieved, and I am so delighted,” she said. “This has been going on for a very long time, and it’s time to move on and have this over with.” Cramer and Reitman filed their suit two years ago claiming that the APS board illegally altered the orga nization’s bylaws to prevent non board members from participating in the election of board members. APS and Laura Walters, direc tor of the animal shelter at the time, countered with claims of libel, slander and defamation.

For the Uzbek government to continue receiving direct U.S. aid, the Secretary of State must certi fy that the country is making progress on human rights and other civil liberties. On Sunday, Safayev told foreign journalists that cutting off aid to the country would be a mistake and insisted progress was being made on human rights and eco nomic reforms. Dreier’s delegation was in Uzbekistan to “conduct oversight on the U.S. regional security pres ence, including the ongoing opera tions in Afghanistan,” the U.S. Embassy in Tashkent said in a statement. Also on Monday, the Chairman in-Office of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, Bulgarian Foreign Minister Solomon Passy, said Uzbek President Islam Karimov told him that the country was ready to cooperate with the OSCE in the run-up to parliamentary elections later this year. Passy did not say if OSCE elec tion observers will monitor the vote. come under harsh criticism from Cramer and Reitman over how it runs the county’s animal shelter. Asa result, the Orange County Board of Commissioners appoint ed a task force to examine the future of the shelter. After examining the manage ment and structure of APS and file shelter, the commissioners decid ed Thursday to remove animal shelter control from APS. Members of a task force sub-com mittee met today to discuss the ultimate fate of the animal shelter. Jim Kramer, a member of the county’s task force, said he believes the animal shelter will end up in the hands of the county. “From the last meeting, it’s pret ty clear that the county is going to take over the shelter one way or another,” he said. “It’s just a matter of going through the formalities and the shift in regime.” Kramer said he is relieved at the developments regarding the organ ization. “I have a very poor opinion of the APS. ... I really hope the county can get in there and do what they are supposed to be doing.” The trial date is set for June 28. Contact the City Editor at citydesk@unc.edu.
