Board of Regents approves UCF's campus master plan

A brief presentation by President John Hitt to the Board of Regents during its

meeting here Sept. 14 and 15, brought a unanimous vote of approval for UCF's new campus master plan. The plan must be approved by the state Legislature to be finalized. (See page 4 for a map of the plan.)

In other business, the Board of Regents recommended that the nine operating state universities be allowed to increase tuition by as much as 10 percent. The resolution from the board would have to be approved by the Legislature, also. Only one regent, Education Commissioner Frank Brogan, voted against the measure, agreeing that while there is a need for

Coca-Cola donates $50,000 toward UCF scholarship fund

In an effort to create more diversity among the future teaching work force, UCF established a

$50,000 scholarship fund with a grant from the Coca-Cola Foundation to support five students participating in the Teacher Education for America's Minority Program. Participants in the program, offered through UCF's College of Education, will receive five-year scholarships that will pay for tuition and books.

Diane Gray, senior education program manager for the Coca-Cola Foundation in Atlanta, presented a $50,000 check to President John Hitt and UCF College of Education Dean Mary Palmer. Martha Bell, director of TEAM-UCF, was also on hand for the ceremony.

TEAM-UCF is a comprehensive program that recruits and trains minorities majoring in education and plan to be teachers. In its five-year

increasing tuition, increases should be more gradual so current students are not penalized.

Hitt and the other university presidents urged the regents to propose the increase to cover the growing student population in Florida. The average tuition in the nation is $3,000 a year; whereas, the State University System averages $1,750. Although the SUS was about average in tuition during the 1970s, Florida's tuition ranks toward the bottom of the scale today—44th in the country.

A10 percent increase would cost the average student taking 30 credits during the academic year an extra $114 to a total of less than $2,000.

The regents also agreed to study the need for adding other fees, including a technology fee, on the urging of the university presidents. The presidents voiced concern on not being able to provide students with the up-to-date technology that would allow them to prepare for the current work environment.

"We have a great need to provide technology to students, but at this time we are not able to estimate the exact dimension of those needs," said Hitt.

A number of universities already access technology fees at anywhere from $50 a semester to $3,000.

The campus plan approved by the BOR sticks to the original circular plan

and proposes to create an academic core, which would place all academic buildings within a 1,200 foot radius of the center of campus. That includes Pegasus Circle, where the new Student Union Building is located, and Apollo Circle, the wide walkway that passes between the Reflecting Pond and the Administration Building. The plan also calls for similar academic areas of study to be linked together by common courtyards or quadrangles.

The major change for the campus involves closing vehicle traffic in the inner core with parking garages placed at the edge of the inner core,

Engineering professors look for cure to highway headaches University of Central Florida

professors are relying on high-tech medicine to help

the Florida Department of Transportation prevent highway headaches.

Working under grants exceeding $1 million in partnership with FDOT, faculty members in the College of Engineering's Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering are

tackling 10 separate research projects that range from predicting Interstate-4 traffic congestion caused by accidents and rubbernecking to developing a driving simulator that could lead to safer, more cost-effective highways throughout the state.

Other current FDOT research projects include:

• Testing the feasibility of building bridges partly of plastic to

better withstand the pounding of heavy traffic;

• Evaluating highway drainage system designs against rainfall data in different parts of the state so that handling capacities can be built matching actual run-off conditions;

• Assessing how much the electronic toll collections (EPASS) on the East-West Expressway and Beltway have improved traffic flows

at toll plazas; • Instrumenting a Tampa-area,

prestressed concrete bridge for temperature and strain measurements, which will provide state officials with benchmark data to evaluate contractors' redesign proposals;

• Identifying the extent that the

strength concrete bridges make them more susceptible to vibration from heavy, fast-moving trucks;

• Predicting where in Florida vehicle emissions will cause unacceptably high pollution;

• Evaluating the air-quality benefit of driving cars once they have warmed up;

• And determining the wind-resistance effectiveness of different supports and connections for highway signs.

Of all the projects, development of the driving simulator is the largest. Funded at $400,000 over two years, the research promises to make UCF the statewide center for simulating future highways to optimize construction costs and safety features, according to Essam Radwan, chair, Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering. Specifically, UCF is to develop specifications for a 21st century driving simulator while upgrading a UCF simulator built with now-aging technology.

Knowing in advance how people will react to different construction, safety, maintenance and traffic engineering issues will enable state highway officials to make the best choices when building new roadways or modifying or maintaining old ones, Radwan said. Even the unexceptional chore of painting highway lane lines can profit from simulation technology, he said.

"Imagine the millions of dollars spent each year on paint for highway striping and consider the savings that could be realized by painting narrower stripes if it could be done without putting drivers at a greater safety risk," he offered. "A driving simulator can test and quantify people's reactions to different width striping under different speed, roadway, lighting and weather conditions and will yield information on the safest and most cost-effective width."

While UCF's selection as a statewide highway simulation center doubtlessly will turn on the sophistication of the driving simulator UCF produces and the value of the data it collects, the technology itself seems destined to play an increasingly significant role in highway planning.

Richard Long, director of research for the Florida Department of Transportation, would like to see driver simulation technology developed so that proposed highways could be designed and tested in cyberspace before the first dollar is spent buying right-of-ways. The technology,, he said, has applications beyond roadway planning, including driver education and driver licensing.

Radwan concurs on the bright future for such simulators and agrees almost completely with Long's pronouncement that, "There is no reason Florida can't be the national leader in driver simulation technology." Radwan offers only a slight amendment. "I would substitute 'UCF' for 'Florida,'" he said.

UCF professor heads up international conference on parallel computing

Narsingh Deo, the Millican Endowed Chair professor of computer science, is the conference general chair for the Eighth International Confer­ence on Parallel and Distributed Computing Systems. The conference began on Sept. 20 and runs until the Sept. 23 at the Sheraton Plaza Hotel. The conference will provide a forum for researchers to exchange up-to-date technical knowledge and experience. Keynote speakers will also provide tutorial sessions.

Deo is also the director of UCF's Center for Parallel Computation. Prior to taking his present position in 1986, he was a professor of computer science at Washington State University, acting as the department chair from 1980-83.

He has written four books on computer science, which have been translated into several foreign languages (Russian, Polish and Japanese). He holds a number of patents in computer hardware and has been the recipient of many awards, including NASA's Apollo Achievement Award and the Governor's Award for Outstanding Contribution to High Tech Research in Florida.

COCA-COLA, continued from page 1 history, TEAM-UCF has graduated 56 candidates, maintained a 98 percent track record of employment for graduates and contributed largely to an increase of over 5 percent in UCF's College of Education minority graduation rate.

According to the 1994 Statistical Abstract of the United States, minorities made up approximately 13 percent of K-12 educators in the U.S. Their number is steadily declining and is expected to drop to 5 percent by the year 2000. In contrast, Gale's Statistical Record of Children reports that minority students in 1992 made up 20 percent of the total K-12 student population. The number of minority students has since been increasing and is expected to reach 33 percent by the turn of the century.

Funds received from the Coca-Cola Foundation will help provide scholarships to students who otherwise may not have the financial resources to attend and stay in college.

learning opportunities for all students," said Gray. "It also aims to help TEAM-UCF students advance through the teacher training 'pipeline' to graduation and into the classroom."

The Coca-Cola Foundation, the philanthropic arm of the Coca-Cola Co., has made a $50 million, decade-long commitment to advance excellence in education in the 1990s. The foundation offers support to public and private colleges and universities; elementary and secondary schools; teacher training; initiatives for minority students; arts and environmental education; and programs that promote international understanding.

UCF's College of Education offers over 30 degree programs in which minorities and other college students may participate. Within the last year, the college awarded over 800 degrees. In its effort to attract more minorities to prepare to become teachers, UCF embraced TEAM-UCF as a program of recruitment, support, training and placement.

World-renowned mathematician to present three lectures at UCF

Sir James Lighthill, a member of the Royal Society of London and the U.S. National Academy of Science, will deliver three lectures as part of the Mathematics Distinguished Lecture Series. All three lectures will be in Phillips Hall, room 409.

UCF's Campus Master Plan M C C U L L O C H

BOR, continued from page 1 yet easily accessible by main campus roads.

A number of buildings are planned for the next 10 to 15 years, which include a building for the School of Communication, a building for the College of Health and Public Affairs, an engineering research lab, a Social Sciences Building and several classrooms. The Visual Arts Center—which includes the already in-use Visual Arts Building—will include an Art Complex II and an Art Complex III for theater and music.

Units for student housing will be located at the southern end of campus near the Central Florida Boulevard entrance. Any further Greek housing will be built in that area, also.

Recreational facilities will be relocated near the UCF Arena, though some facilities will remain in their current southern location to accommodate the students housed in that area. Past the turn of the century, a number of buildings are scheduled for construction for a variety of fields of studies and research. See Map Legend for details.

Heart of Florida United Way drive kicks off at UCF; officials encourage wide participation by employees

The team of UCF employees heading up UCF's annual drive for the Heart of Florida United Way campaign will again encourage campuswide participation from university employees. According to JoEllen Borum, assistant director of Personnel Services Department, and this year's campaign director, the percentage of participation has been inching up over the last several years. Two years ago when university officials decided that the goal for UCF's drive should be wider participation rather than a dollar amount, participation and monies raised increased. Two years ago, 38 percent of employees gave and $52,000 was raised. Last year, those figures climbed to almost 46 percent and $74,439.

"This year, we'll be working to increase giving to 50 to 55 percent," Borum said.

Last year, 24 departments or units reported 100 percent giving from their employees. The College of Business Administration led the rest of the university with eight units or departments out of 11 having 100 percent giving.

For the second year, employees can choose to have their donations directed to any one of the 250 agencies through the Florida State Employees' Charitable Campaign, which includes the local, state, national and international United Way agencies.

"In the past, all donations went only to local United Way agencies. But now, employees have a large choice of agencies to receive their donations," Borum said. "For instance, employees at our other campus locations will have the option of having their funds sent directly to agencies in their own areas. All donations, regardless of what agencies are chosen, will be credited toward UCF's contribution to the United Way."

Employees can also choose to have their donations deducted from their paychecks. Campaign coordinators will begin contacting employees in their units this week with detailed information on the drive. The campaign will be wrapped up Nov. 3.

The coordinators for the Heart of Florida United Way campaign prepare for their kick-off activities.

PAGE 4 THE UCF REPORT

UCF teams receive top-notch medical care As UCF prepares to join the ranks of big-time

football teams with its first step—entering Division IA next year—the university is working to line up all the ingredients of a team that can compete at the top level. One part of that recipe is something UCF doesn't have to worry about: a top-notch team of physicians to oversee the health and safety of its athletes.

Jewett Orthopaedic Clinic, which is nationally known as a leader in sports medicine, has been on the UCF team since 1985. UCF is in good company. The clinic also acts as the team physicians for the Orlando Magic, the Orlando Cubs, the Orlando Venue World Cup Soccer, the Orlando Solar Bears, Rollins College and many local high school athletic programs.

Dr. Carl Croft, UCF's lead physician from the clinic, said the toughest part of his job is saying "no" to the athletes.

"We try to get them back playing as quickly as possible, but we make sure that they're rehabilitated so that they're not going to injure themselves again," he said.

The easy part is healing them. The expertise of the team physicians with their years of successes makes the diagnosis and treatment of most conditions a fairly standard process for them. They work hand-in-hand with UCF's trainer, Kevin Mercuri, to provide physical therapy, medication or

surgery for whatever problems develop. Jewett Orthopaedic Clinic brings a number of sub-specialists to the mix. If an athlete has a problem with his hand, Croft and the other members of the team consult with one of the clinic's hand specialists. Same thing with knees, ankles, hips, spines. All of the 20 physicians at the clinic are available for consultations.

The physicians oversee treatments for minor sprains, bruises and contusions as well as the more debilitating injuries, such as torn ligaments.

The team physicians not only give physical exams prior to each sports season, but are present at

Dr. Carl Croft

most of UCF athletic events. Two or three physicians are usually present at the football games.

"We're always on call," Croft said. "But usually we're out to the UCF campus to check on the athletes two or three times a week."

Croft's enthusiasm for sports medicine grew from his own love of sports. He played football at West Point in the 1950s when Vince Lombardi was one of the coaches there. Years later (1963-64), Croft was the team physician at West Point.

"Before the 1970s, there really weren't any specialities in orthopaedic surgery," Croft explained. "During that decade, I started doing more and more work with sports injuries. I now specialize in sports medicine and arthroscopy."

Arthroscopy involves examination of a joint using a special surgical instrument. Croft, a graduate of Duke University's medical school, was the first in the Southeast to conduct such an examination. He is also a founding member of the American Orthopaedic Society of Sports Medicine.

Steve Sloan, director of UCF's Athletic Department, said that the team physicians have provided quality care to UCF's athletes for many years.

"They're also very caring people, very supportive," Sloan said. "They're really top-of-the-line in their field. The UCF athletic program really benefits from their tremendous expertise."

World-ranked water-skiers face off with competitors in France

JB&T

Two UCF MBA student water-skiers competed in the men's slalom division of the 1995 World Water Ski Championships Sept. 11 -17 in Nice, France.

Official results from the championship were unavailable at the time The UCF Report went to press.

The International Water Ski Federation ranks Drew Ross sixth and Ken Autore seventh among the world's men slalom skiers. In addition, Autore, one of 19 Americans who competed in the championship, is ranked fourth among U.S. men slalom skiers. Ross, who attended as a representative from Canada, is ranked first in his country and holds the Canadian record.

The World Water Ski Championships event is divided into six parts: slalom, tricks and long­distance jumping competitions for men, and slalom, tricks and long-distance jumping competitions for women.

Both Autore and Ross have competed in skiing competitions for several years. In 1983 and 1984, Autore was named the Junior Boys Eastern Region Slalom Champion. By 1986, he gained further recognition as an outstanding slalom skier when he appeared in a National Geographic section on outstanding youths titled "Kids Did It."

Autore started skiing at the age of 2 and Ross at 4. Both sought ideal areas to live where they can practice their sport year-round. They now own homes located on two Central Florida lakes where they practice extensively. And their practicing has paid off in more ways than one.

Autore's and Ross' successes as skiers are not only capturing the eye of slalom fans, but of manufacturers of water-related products. Autore and Ross endorse KD Waterskis. Autore also endorses Ray Ban Sun Glasses by Bausch & Lomb and has endorsed Ski Supreme Boats and Henderson Wetsuits. Ross endorses O'Neill Wetsuits, Malibu Boats and Masterline.

In addition to endorsements, both write for the internationally known WaterSki magazine, which is published by World Publications in Winter Park.

Autore writes a monthly column titled "Quick Tips," and Ross frequently writes feature articles. Ross and his brother Doug wrote a recent article titled "The Left and Right Way to Better Slalom" that appeared in the October edition of WaterSki. His brother is also a UCF graduate and is ranked ninth in the world by the International Water Ski Federation.

Autore, who did his undergraduate work at UCF, moved to Orlando in 1990 and enrolled at the university on an athletic scholarship. He competed on UCF's ski team and helped it to capture several national and international titles. Ross obtained a

bachelor's degree from Rollins College, where he assisted the Rollins College squad in winning the 1989 national title as an All-American.

Autore and Ross plan on completing their graduate studies at UCF by next year. Autore, who presently gives private skiing lessons at his home, wants to work in an investment-oriented field. Ross said that he will attend law school and has plans of practicing law in the U.S.
