Prior to his position at DePauw he
was dormitory manager and
instructor of management of Ohio
University and assistant dean of
students at Iowa State University.
He received the B.S. Degree from
Kent State University in Kent,
Ohio, the M.B.A. at Ohio
University in Athens, Ohio and the
Ph.D. from Iowa State University,
Ames, Iowa. His publications
include "Fraternities: An

"Synthesis of a Fraternity."
Dr. McQuilkin's hobbies include
golfing, fishing, and working with
stained glass. He and his wife
Jacquelyn presently live in
Greencastle, Indiana.
The new dean was one of three
candidates extensively interviewed
by various groups. According to W.
Rex Brown, vice president for
Student Affairs, McQuilkin received
positive and favorable reactions
from the groups.
Dr. Charles Gilliland, dean of the
College of Business Administration
and one of the faculty interviewers,
was favorably impressed by
McQuilkin calling him a "young
man with very good judgment."
Student interviewer Lynn Ferris,
representing Panhellenic gave
McQuilkin a "positive report"
because "he seemed to be able to
SG Views On Budget
Too Late For Input
By John S. Gholdston
Through no fault of FTU's administration, student input in
formulating the various Student Activities Budgets will not be added,
according to Frank Santry, President of FTU's Student Government.
"Our authority has been circumvented," Santry told the Senate
Tuesday, "and I am being forced to    	
Miss FTU, Susan Autry, is
participating in the Miss Florida
Beauty Pageant this week.
Miss Autry, 20 year old
psychology major from Kissimmee,
won the Miss FTU title in May with
her rendition of "You Can't Get a
Man With a Gun," from the musical
"Annie 'Get Your Gun." She also
has won contests at Silver Springs
and Osceola County.
Miss   Autry   spent  the  week  at
Lake Highland Preparatory School.
The Miss Florida Debut was
Wednesday night at the Municipal
Auditorium, and Thursday and
tonight are premiere nights for the
contestants. Crowning of Miss
Florida and the Coronation Ball is
Saturday.
The winner of the Miss Florida
pageant will represent the state in
the Miss America contest in
September.
RETRACTION
It was erroneously reported in
the FuTure's last issue that
assistant professor William J.
Bopp's book, "The Police
Rebellion," was produced "with
funds from the FTU
Foundation." According to
Bopp, the book is a private
undertaking and no university
funds have been involved.
work unconstitutionally within my
own system."
Santry explained that annually
the segment of each student's
registration fee, called the Student
Activity Fee, is set aside for student
activities only, such as the Health
Services, Insurance, and Student
Government. "Normally each one
of these budgets must be submitted
to the SG office, and the Senate
must approve each one before it
can be sent to the President's
office," Santry told the FuTUre.
After the President's approval, the
budgets are sent to the Chancellor
of the Board of Regents, who must
make the final approvals.
"Under that system the students
have a voice in how their funds,
which are allocated for their use,
are spent," said Santry.
Santry went on to say that the
budgets were not supposed to be
due to the Chancellor's office until
August 7, but that President
Millican received late word that the
budgets were to be approved and
into the Chancellor's office by
today, at the latest, a full month
ahead of schedule.
"That gave us less than a week to
get each proposed budget from the
various departments, get them
passed   through   the   Senate,   and
approved   by   President   Millican,"
said Santry.
Santry explained to the Senate
that since the Senate was meeting
on Tuesdays, there would be no
way to have them approve the
proposed budgets, except after the
fact.
"The Senate will practically e
cut out of the entire process, said
Santry, "What it amounts to is that
the SG input will have to come
from me, since I will be the only
one able to pass the budgets on to
the President."
Several times Santry emphasized
that the time difference was the
fault of the Chancellor's office and
not one stemming from the FTU
Administration. "The
Administration has been working
closely with me, trying to help us as
much as possible, but," sighed
Santry, "I fear there is nothing that
can be done to prevent it."
Summer Senators were urged by
Santry to drop by his office before
today to give him added input in
the budget considerations.
