VOLUME 7, NUMBER 22
Six Faculty Members Named 1993-94
Distinguished Scholar-Teachers
Six UMCP faculty members have
been named Distinguished Scholar-
Teachers for the 1993-1994 academic
year. They are WilHam Bechhaefcr,
iirchi lecture; James Dally, mechanical
engineering; John Gannon, computer
sciences; Maria Mcintosh, agronomy;
Margaret Palmer, zoology; and Lee
Preston, business and management.
The Distinguished Scholar-Teach-
ers will receive STOOO for profession-
al expenses, teach a University
Honors course, and present a public
lecture during the 1994 sprhig
semester.
The following is a brief summary
of the awardees' research interests
and proposed honors course.
William Bechhoefer
Stemming from a formative
encounter with Arab architecture in
the late sixties, William Bechhoefer's
scholarship, teaching and profession-
al practice have reflected a commit-
ment to exploring architecture as "a
synthesis of cultural, technological
and aesthetic concerns."
Since joining the School of Archi-
tecture in 1970, Bechhoefer has made
countless trips to the Middle East,
particularly to Amasya, Turkey. He
has written extensively about urban
Turkish architecture and was respon-
sible for creating the degree concen-
tration in International Studies in
Architecture.
Bechhoefer's international experi-
ence has also influenced his proposed
honors course, "Cross-Cultural Val-
ues and Architecture." Drawing on
anthropology, sociology, intellectual
history and economics, as weil as
architecture, the course would focus
on "the motivations people bring to
the making of built environments,
with examples taken from many cul-
tures a roim d the wor 1 d . "

Math Professor Mikhael Gromov Wins Prestigious Wolf Prize
Math Professor Mikhael Gromov,
widely believed to be the world's
leading geometrician, is co-winner of
the 1993 Wolf Foundation Prize in
Mathematics, which is accompanied
by a $100,01)0 award.
The Wolf Prize, considered second
only to the Nobel Prize in prestige, is
presented annually by the Israel-
based Wolf Foundation for outstand-
ing achievements in medicine,
chemistry, physics, agriculture, the
arts, and mathematics. The Israeli
president will present the award to
Gromov on May 1 6 in Jerusalem.
Gromov won the prize for his
work in symplectic and Riemannian
geometry and the geometry of
groups.
Gromov, who shared the prize
with College de la France Professor
Jacques Tits, also holds a chair in
mathematics at the Institut des
Hautes Etudes Scientifiques in Bures-
sur-Yvette, France.
Born in Boksitogorsk, U.S.S.R,,
Gromov received his Ph.D. from the
University of Leningrad, Since
receiving his doctorate, he emigrated
to France and began work at Mary-
land in 1991.
In addition to the Wolf Prize, Gro-
mov has won the Moscow Mathemat-
ics Society Prize; the Oswald Veblen
Prize in Geometry from the American
Mathematical Society; and the Elie
Cartan Prize from the French Acade-
mv of Sciences. He is a foreign asso-
ciate of the National Academy of
Sciences and the American Academy
of Arts and Science, and a foreign
member of the French Academy of
Sciences.
Gromov becomes Maryland's
third Wolf Prize winner, joining Agri-
culture Professor Theodor Diener,
who won in 1987, and Michael Fisher,

The locale may have been north-
ern Maryland, but the focus was on
the Middle East as some bO scholars
and clergy converged on the univer-
sity's Donaldson Brown Center in
Port Deposit February 20-21 to ask
the question, "Can religion be a
bridge to peace?"
The recent stalling of peace talks
in the Midtile East lent some urgency
to this interfaith "trialogue" of Jews,
Muslims and Christians on the
Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Participants hailed from the U.S.
and such Middle East locations as
Israel, the West Bank and Gaza,
Egypt and Jordan.
The event was sponsored by
Maryland's Center for International
Development and Conflict Manage-
ment (CIDCM) and is part of their
larger Religion and Peace Project.
CIDCM is hoping to build on
momentum generated by the confer-
ence with a similar meeting this June
in Jerusalem featuring participants
from Jerusalem's Hebrew University,
Bethlehem University and the West
Bank's Bir Zeit University.

Honor Council Experiences Growing Pains
CIDCM Director
Edy Kaufman
The Student Honor Council, which
tries al! cases of academic dishonesty
on campus, is excited about possible
changes that could improve its effi-
ciency.
The Campus Senate is currently
reviewing the Code of Academic
Integrity, which governs the Honor
Council and defines university poli-
cies on academic dishonesty. The
original code called for a review dur-
ing the 1992-93 academic year in
order to determine any changes that
would be necessary for it to "evolve."
During a special Campus Senate
open hearing on Januarv 26, opinions
differed over Riles concerning who
could advise accused students during
Honor Council hearings, but all
agreed on new procedures designed
to speed up the pace at which cases
move through the system.
Plans for pn>posed changes were
submitted by the Student Legal Aid
Office {in conjunction with the SGA),
the Honor Council, and the Office of
Judicial Programs. The Adjunct Com-
mittee on Student Conduct has writ-
ten a proposal using what it deemed
to be the best parts of each of these
plans, which the Campus Senate will
vote on in April.
"One of our major problems is a
lag in getting cases done," says the
chairman of the Student Honor
Council, Michael Hess. "About 95-98
percent of this is due to a lack of
funding."
Under the current code, a typical
case could take up to three months or
longer with as many as 20 letters and
30 phone calls per case. Last year the
Honor Council handled 123 cases
with no full-time staff.
The backlog of cases can also be
attributed to the procedures used.
Currently, all cases are referred to an
Honor Board (made up of three stu-
dents and two faculty members ) to be
reviewed regardless of the circum-
stances. Because this takes too much
time, under the new proposal uncon-
tested cases would be resolved with a
standard sanction at a less formal
meeting, rather than a full Honor
Board Review,
"The question before us was how
to speed up the process but still have
it be fair to the student," Hess says.
The flow of new ideas came most-
ly from students, and a great deal of
cooperation prevailed as the hearings
went on.
The current code allows students
to be advised bv anyone they choose,
including lawyers, during an Honor
Board Review. The Honor Council
and Judicial Programs proposals
called for allowing only other stu-
dents or facultv as advisors.
Peace Conference
contiiniL'ii from pi^c }
A third leg is scheduled for next
fall in Maryland, and, since the
Grand Mufti of Cairo sent regards to
the gathering in Port Deposit, a meet-
ing in the Egyptian capital has also
been suggested.
A series of activities at the univer-
sity are also in the works for the com-
ing months. These include forums on
the status of women and the growth
of Islamic organisations in the Mid-
dle East, as well as films and literarv
events.
During the first day of the confer-
ence, Jewish, Christian and Muslim
theologians examined precedents for
peace in their respective faiths. These
talks frequently highlighted a dis-
juncture between the peaceful pro-
nouncements of religious doctrines
and the often bloody history of the
three religions.
The three speakers were Rabbi
Shira Lander of the Institute for
Christian-Jewish Studies; David Lit-
tle, a fellow at the U.S. Institute of
Peace; and Abdel Omran, Director of
the CIDCM Population and Health
Program.
Focus on the second day shifted
from theological discussion to the
role religion is currently playing in
the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
In his talk, CIDCM Director Edy
Kaufman depicted an Israeli Jewish
populace deepiv divided on issues of
religion, peace and territorial expan-
sion.
Shukri Abed, a senior fellow at
CIDCM, addressed the growing
influence of the religious Islamic
movement Hamas in the West Bank
and Gaza, indicating that support
there may be slipping for the secular
Palestine Liberation Organization.
The keynote address on "Religion,
Universality, and Peace" was deliv-
ered by Landami Boiling, of Har-
vard's Conflict Management Croup.
Boiling, whose first memories of war
were of WWI, toid of his experiences
with war and religion in a number of
tW'entieth century conflicts.
Other speakers included Govern-
ment and Politics professor Charles
Butterworth and other leaders of
interfaith and peace groups.

"\ think the faculty made it clear
that they didn't want to be involved
in a protracted, adversarial process,"
said Gary Pavela, director of Judicial
Programs, "When lawyers who don't
know our system are involved, it can
become that wav, and it's not gotid
for the students involved."
When the SGA and Student Legal
Aid proposed going in the opposite
direction bv allowing lawyers the
freedom to cross-examine during
reviews, heated debate ensued.
Some of the new features that will
be voted on include: increased fund-
ing for the Honor Council, informal
conferences to resolve uncontested
cases, a self referral clause in which
students who turn themselves in
receive lessened sanctions, and an
appeals process.
"With the recommended changes,
it shows that our system is adaptable
to dealing with changes that arise,"
savs Tim Cole, legal advisor at Stu-
dent Legal Aid. "It has the potential
to be the kind of system that other
schools can look at."
Indeed, other schools are looking
at it. The Code of Academic Integri-
ty's influence can be felt at both Rut-
gers University and the University of
Pennsylvania, which are considering
similar programs.
The university has become a
founding member of the National
Center for Academic Integrity, and
has been asked to host its second
annual conference in April. Represen-
tatives are expected to come from
such schools as the University of Vir-
ginia, Princeton, and M.l.T.

fracture mechanics. He has written
over 200 articles and has been elected
as a fellow to the American Society of
Mechanical Engineers, the Society for
Experimental Mechanics, and the
American Academy of Mechanics.
But in recent years. Daily's schol-
arly and teaching interests have
focused on engineering education.
He helped develop the new freshman
course, "Introduction to Engineering
Design," that gives students hands-
on experience to design problems at
the beginning of their academic
careers, rather than at the end.
Dally i-s also working with a study
group at Vanderbilt University to
prepare an upcoming book, Pnmdi^iu
Shifts in En^iiinriiig Educatiau: The
Influence of Computer and CommtDucn-
tian Teclnwlogf/.
Daily's honors course, "Mechanics
of Materials," will likely include
innovations in computer-aided
instruction and collaborative learn-
ing. His public lecture wil! be on
"Questioning the Curriculum in Sci-
ence and Engineering."
John Gannon
A specialist in the analysis of formal
software system descriptions, com-
puter science professor John Cannon
has won several grants from the
National Science Foundation, the U.S.
Air Force and IBM,
Since 1975, he has also consistently
received excellent teaching evalua-
tions and has received teaching
awards from his department, college,
and from the Pan -Hellenic Council,
At this point. Cannon's proposed
honors coui^e is still to be determined,
Maria Mcintosh
Admittedly "eclectic" in her
research, agronomy professor Maria
Mcintosh's scholarly interests include
work on genetic diversity of crop
plants in relation to germplasm man-
agement, evaluation and develop-

ment of a "core" germplasm for an
alfalfa-related species, and (since
1979) the effects of municipal sludge
disposal on tree populations and
forests.
The tie that binds, though, is her
statistical expertise in experimental
design and data analysis. Since 1982,
she has been part of a UMCP/USDA
joint statistical consulting laboratory
for agricultural and life scientists, and
has often provided statistical guid-
ance for her graduate students' theses
and dissertations.
For her honors course, Mcintosh
will teach "Science and Society," a
course on the "workings of science,
the impacts of science on society, and
ethical dilemmas related to science."
Margaret Palmer
Internationally recognized and
highly regarded as an aquatic eco le-
gist, associate professor Margaret
Palmer specializes in understanding
how hydrodynamics affect the dis-
persal processes of microscopic inver-
tebrates (meiofauna) which inhabit
marine interstitial sediments.
In recent years, she has also
focu.sed her attention on freshwater
streams, which is the focus for one of
the two National Science Foundation
grants she is currently working on.
In 1990 she was selected as a Lilly
Teaching Fellow. That same year, she
also began teaching her popular
"Women and Science" course, which
will influence a more philosophical
honors course, "Gender and Scientific
Knowledge," to be taught next year.
Topics to be explored in "Gender
and Scientific Knowledge" include
the representation of gender differ-
ences in science, the use of sex-linked
metaphors in science, and the effect
of androcentric biases on scientific
objectivity.
Lee Preston
Since coming to Maryland in 1980
to direct the Center for Business and
Public Policy, business and manage-
ment professor Lee Preston has dra-
matically influenced his college's
curriculum.
In addition to routinely teaching
highly-rated courses in the under-
graduate, MBA, and doctoral pro-
grams, Preston helped establish the
Center for International Business and
Education Research through U.S.
Department of Education grants. He
also organized the development of an
international business and foreign
language program on campus.
For his honors seminar, "After the
Earth Summit," Preston will focus on
the developments leading up to the
Rio de Janerio Earth Summit, the
actual deliberations and results
achieved, and the national and inter-
national policy issues raised at the

Performing Arts Center Was a Long Time Coming
Though Maryland's proposed per-
forming arts center has made front
page headlines in the past two weeks,
the plan has been in the works for
about fifteen year.s, with a university
committee meeting on the issue dur-
ing the last seven.
The proposal was thrust into the
limelight, and the construction sched-
ule accelerated, recently when the
state and Prince George's county gov-
ernments decided to team up to build
the center, now due for completion
by the end of the decade.
The center's $83 million price tag
will be spread over six fiscal years
starting in FY 1994, with the facility
to be constructed in two phases.
The first phase for music would be
completed in 1996, followed by the
theater phase slated for completion in
the year 2000.
The center will be a single build-
ing housing four performance halls,
rehearsal space, a performing arts
library, and even a full-scale restaurant.
"It will definitely be the biggest
structure on this campus," says Jon
Boone, acting executive director of
the Music Department, who has been
working on the project for about 15
years. The center is due to occupy
300,000 st]uare feet and be over TOO
feet tall.
The center's concert hall will seat
800 to 1000, contrary to a figure of
1500 cited in a February 23 Washing-
coittintu'd on page 4

The center will also include a 600-seat
proscenium theater, a 25n-seat experi-
mental theater, and a 200-seat recital hall
for solo or chamber music performances.
Although there was pressure to make
the concert hall much bigger, the univer-
sity planning committee decided that too
large a hall would compromise the edu-
cational goals of the center.
"When it's a 1500 to 2000-seat hall,
student voices don't carry very well, and
it's not a very good educational e5<peri-
ence," says Boone.
In addition to its primary goal of serv-
ing the university's theater, dance and
music departments, the center will be
home to such groups as the Prince
George's Philharmonic and the Mary-
land Opera Society.
The construction process will start
with a national competition to select an
architect, to be chosen by Thanksgiving,
Although the committee has iiot yet
settled on a location for the center, Boone
believes it will be built along University
Boulevard, somewhere between that
street's dormitories and the President's
