Policies Responsibility Stressed By MCC Chairman Herbert Lutter, newly elected chairman of the McHenry County college board of trustees, receives congratulations from Dr. William Ryan, left, who was elected vice-chairman. Lutter, of unincorporated Cary, is an attorney who called for the board ro revise its table of organization and policies in detail in the next few months. DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME Daylight Saving time returns Sunday, April 30, and this is a reminder to set clocks ahead onfe hour Saturday night. Resolving to work toward the revision of the college's table of organization and board policy manual, Herbert Lutter of unincorporated Cary was elected last week to serve as board chairman at the MCC board reorganization meeting. "Many of our problems in the past were directly or indirectly tied to policies not being un­ derstood or followed", Lutter declared in taking over his new position. He called having detailed policies and a table of organization "one of the prime responsibilities of the board". Lutter is completing his third term as a trustee. Dr. William Ryan of Crystal Lake was named vice- chairman and Robert Weidner of Harvard, reelected to serve as board secretary. Both were reelected to the board at the April election. Prior to the reorganization vote, Gerald Smith, Woodstock, chairman of the board for the last two years, stated he would not accept the chairman's position for another term. Smith said, "Three examples I have tried to set as chairman are that the board meetings are not rehearsed between members of the board and the administration prior to public meetings. All matters not af­ fecting personnel have been discussed in open sessions and the college and the board are held in high esteem by the general public because of this, and the board of trustees is the ultimate authority on all matters affecting McHenry County college and the trustees may not relinquish the responsibility nor the authority to any individual or group of individuals." The board selected the firm of Elmer Fox, Westheimer and Co., certified public ac­ countants, Elgin, to conduct the annual audit of the college's financial records and prac­ tices. A prepared statement was read by Michael Frazier, MCC classified staff member, bringing to the board's at­ tention the formation of the McHenry County college staff organization. Composed of classified staff members and employees from the professional-technical level, the group proposed that the board adopt the resolution to recognize the organization as the bargaining agent for the members and appoint a negotiations team to begin bargaining discussipns. The board requested the matter be placed on the agenda for the regular May meeting. MCC president. Dr. Robert G. Harris, outlined informational material including board policy on students driving college cars, an up-date on telephone usage, the campus traffic flow plan and reports on articulation with industry, high schools and the community The board approved bonuses for part-time faculty, summer employment of counseling personnel, part-time com­ munity-services personnel, and the appointments of Lorraine Stahl, Wonder Lake. Debra Steinsdorfer, Crystal Lake. John White. McHenry. and Ronald Peterson. Crystal Lake, to the MCC classified staff In other business the board approved the treasurer's report as presented, approved the one and five-year plan, approved five chargebacks, heard a report on campus planning presented by John Garrett, vice-president, and formed a committee to investigate the feasibility of creating an ad­ ditional community relations position, and approved (subject to a study by Weidner and Dr Harris) a sub-lease of farm land to an MCC student to be used for his internship program in agriculture. The board will hold a special meeting May 4 at 7:30 p.m. to discuss the MCC athletic program and athletic facilities. Update On School Funded Programs Board members of Elementary School District 15 received an update on funded programs when they met for an educational session Tuesday night at Landmark school. They also learned that the district has received com­ mendation for its Gifted program. Fred Kusch, assistant superintendent for Educational Services, explained that both Title I and Title IV are federally funded programs administered through the state. Title I has been annually funded for District 15 since the law, the Elementary & Secondary Education Act of 1965, was enacted. Essentially^ the funds are used for those designated "educationally disavantaged children," and for the most part is for remedial instruction. Funding in the amount of $52,000 is asked. There are currently 120 students who benefit and next year this number is expected to increase to 160. Funding also may in­ crease by $5,000. Sixteen people on the school staff are involved part time in the program, which requires no funds from the local school district. Title IV is another part of the program and deals mainly with library materials. Funding provides $2 per student, with a target amount for books at 61 percent; for audio-visual materials, 35 percent and for periodicals, 4 percent. Title IV funding approved March 22 was for $6,862. For the Gifted program, funding in the amount of $5,400 is asked. Kusch will go to Springfield in May, on in vitation, to explain McHenry s unique Gifted program for other interested school leaders Kusch said survey sheets had been sent to parents of some children the school feels should be enrolled in the Gifted program He added that this does not include the area of vocational education Honor MCC Scholars, Leaders l̂lowerwocJ 1 WEEKEND Tag-a-Tree Sale Emerald Queen Norway Maple Very hardy tree for all of Northern Illinois.
