'Graying' teachers may threaten
From Associated Press reports
NEW YORK America's teaching
force is aging, and reformers fear the
trend could thwart the drive toward
school improvement.
During the last 20 years, the average
age of the nation's 2.3 million public
school teachers rose from 36 to 41,
according to statistics from the National
Education Association. Unpublished
data from the 1988 Current Population
Survey of the Census Bureau shows
that 48.4 percent are 40 or older.
Educators have usually invoked such
statistics as evidence that mass teacher
retirements lie ahead with no cer-

fleeted disagreement with the site among
committee members.
"If the committee had trouble reach
ing an agreement, I am concerned with
that and will speak to Chairman Sand
ers," Hardin said. He said no one from
the committee had recommended an
alternative site to him.

Some college newspapers have dealt
with less cooperative administrations,
Thompson said. The student newspaper
at Southwest Missouri State University
has taken a grievance to court, although
a date has not yet been set for litigation.
Two pieces of legislation before
Congress this summer could exempt
campus police records from the Buckley
Amendment if passed. The Crime

tainty that the profession is attractive
enough to draw young recruits.
Half to 54 percent of the nation's
teachers will be eligible for retirement
by the year 2000, said Jewell Gould,
research director of the American Fed
eration of Teachers.
This "graying" of the profession
contains other worrisome messages,
several reformers believe. Age statis
tics suggest that a decade of school
reform has been at least partly misdi
rected. "School reformers haven't looked a
lot at the fact that in a decade, many of

indicates the uneasiness about the whole

Gooding, (D-PA), would require all
colleges and universities that partici
pate in federal assistance programs to
submit campus crime statistics to the
FBI, state police, employees, prospec
tive applicants and their parents. It has
been passed by the House and is awaiting
approval in the Senate.
Senate Bill 1925 is similar to the
Crime Awareness and Campus Secu

this summer.

Hammond, a professor at Columbia
Teachers College and an authority on
the teaching profession.
Ernest L. Boyer, president of the
Carnegie Foundation for the Advance
ment of Teaching, said the numbers
mean the nation had better pay more
heed to improving the training of the
next generation of teachers. He said this
group will carry the burden of reform
for years to come.
He said it was a mistake to focus
almost exclusively on present teachers.
"Both older and younger teachers
have to be considered, but if I were to
Stirling Haig, a committee member,
said he thought the group was still con
cerned about the distance of the proposed
site from campus and how it would
affect course scheduling.
Gilian Cell, dean of the College of
Arts and Sciences, said she had met
recently with Paul Rizzo, dean of the
School of Business, to workout some of
the problems. "We're going to have to
do a lot of planning to make it work,"
said Cell.
Stephen Birdsall, associate dean of
the College of Arts and Sciences, said
the school was concerned "about the
ability of students to get the full range of
activities that are present on campus."
Goulson said that the problems posed
by the Kenan site for the undergraduate
business program was one of the
committee ' s biggest concerns. "Putt ing

draw a conclusion, I'd say we have been
far too neglectful of educating the new
generation of teachers who will be de

said Boyer in a recent interview.
Court removes IRS agent from case

an Internal Revenue Service agent was
incompetent and rude in her dealings

Plans for the $30 million business
school include a high-rise parking deck
to be built near the Dean Dome. One
committee member said he thought the
deck "would assuage complaints of
some of the 'big rams' (Education
Foundation members) about parking at
the Dean Dome."
The committee, which consists of
eight faculty members, two under
graduates and one graduate student, had
discussed the proposed site at its April
meeting, but decided to postpone a vote
because commuting and scheduling
problems had not been resolved.

"The combination of incompetence
and rudeness with which the Stouts
were treated at the hands of Heyward
and her supervisor is unacceptable," the
judge's order said, adding that it "dem
onstrates the IRS's lack of organization
and respect for the taxpayers."
The judge last month voided a search
warrant he had approved for a search of
the Stout's business. The affidavit con
tended Mrs. Stout was switching bank
accounts in an effort to conceal assets
and avoid paying $ 1 0,900 in back taxes.
Deaths
Chapel Hill was a spur-of-the moment
decision by Rose.
Rose's brother, Dennis Rose of
Richmond, Va., said in the Chapel Hill
Herald June 1 1 he thought Rose went to
Chapel Hill to kill himself and decided
to take his mother along and kill her at
the last minute because he was afraid of
what his suicide would do to her.
Dennis Rose also said his mother
donated her body to the University
teaching labs six years ago and that
Rose donated his body to the same place
in March, 1990. He speculated that his

The Stouts have complained that IRS
officials gave them four different fig
ures to satisfy the taxes. Their business
was raided May 10 by six agents who
took $2.46 belonging to an employee
and money collected from the sale of
novelty clowns by a private citizen,
evidence showed.
The agents also rifled through busi
ness records, froze the company's bank
account and filed a lien on the company
that supplies the business oil and gas.
The Stouts are now trying to sell their
business to satisfy the IRS bill.

brother travelled to Chapel Hill so that
it would be easier to donate their bodies
to the labs.
Police said Rose's motive for shoot
ing his mother is undetermined, and the
case cannot be considered closed until
lab reports are completed and received.
Interim Public Safety Director John
DeVitto said the State Bureau of Inves
tigation was doing tests to determine
whether there were powder burns on the
hands of either of the bodies. DeVitto
said those tests, as well as others the
nature of which he refused to disclose,
would be finished in about a week.
