New dean
selected
for Social
Work
By SUSAN McCREIGHT
Prof. Harold Johnson has been selec-
ted as the new dean of the University's
School of Social Work. The dean-
designate will assume his new post July
1, replacing Phillip Fellin, who will
return to teaching, having completed a
second five-year term as dean.
As dean, Johnson will have to grapple
with the impending budget cuts that are
sure to hit the School of Social Work.
Michigan State University ad-
ministrators have discussed the
possibility of eliminating the MSU
School of Social Work and University
administrators here have targeted the
library of the University School of
Social Work for probable reductions.
Starting out with limited funds and
faced with a possible budget cut of up to
$119,000, the School will have to depend
on outside funding, Johnson said in an
interview Monday. He said he plans to
solicit alternative funding from
federal research programs, foun-
dations, and other private grants.
THOUGH, TO SOME students, the of-
fice of dean may seem distant from the
daily routine of lectures and study,
Johnson says he also plans to have a
direct influence on the quality of
teaching in the classroom. Johnson said
the School's curriculum needs con-
tinued scrutiny and reorganization, but
added that he plans to maintain the
School's emphasis on research.
Johnson said high quality research is
central to the mission of the School of
Social Work. "Knowledge derived from
research is the basis for curriculum
improvement," he said, adding that
research projects offer employment
opportunities for graduates and that the
findings of such research are fused into
the curriculum. Johnson also said he
will work to maintain the diversity of
the School's student body.
THE DEAN-DESIGNATE is an
authority in areas central to the
profession, of social work and concen-
trations within the field. He has served
as a consultant to the U.S. Department
of Justice, the Michigan Commission on
Corrections, and has been the principle
investigator for more than a dozen
research grants and contracts, in-
cluding "Images of Old Age in
America," "Health Advocacy for Older
People," and the "Gerontology Career
Training Program."
