Clinton College of Public Policy

FAYETTEVILLE (DP) -- Officials of the University of Arkansas hope to create a new William Jefferson Clinton College of Public Policy with funds left over from an appropriation for the Clinton Presidential Library.

B. Alan Sugg, president of the university system, says the Clinton College will be a free-standing school -- a so-called "college without walls" -- where graduate-level students can earn a master's degree while performing public services.

"To understand the concept of a free-standing school, just picture a pair of pants without a zipper," said Sugg. "Studies will not be confined by the traditional restrictions imposed by a linear curriculum." Despite an apparent abundance of hedging, Sugg maintains that the courses will interconnect the rooms in students' lives via open paths without windowless hallways. "Besides, the behavior code requires instructors to never be 'alone' with students. Of course, we're still working on a definition of 'alone'."

"This is an effort to move $1.1 million in leftover funds, given to the Clinton Library to a separate, free-standing unit in the UA system," said Pat Torvestad, director of planning and development for the UA system.

According to auditors, the library budget surplus came about because so many Clinton Administration records are missing or have been accidentally destroyed by fires and shredding, that the library is only expected to fill to one quarter of its design capacity. The problem will be further exaggerated if the President is unable to finish out his second term in office.

The university has requested establishment of 16 full-time positions in the 1999-2000 Higher Education funding budget. 32 additional part-time positions and an open-ended number of volunteer positions have been requested for the internship program.

The following information was gleaned from the application to the Arkansas state legislature and obtained through the Freedom of Information Act.

On federal campuses, classes will be held in the conjugal visitation chambers or linen closets, depending on availability.

Classes meet in late evening, in early morning, or after Easter services. Classes commence as soon as Hillary leaves the premises.

 


Fees

To be determined. Estimated to be greater than the cost of watching the President's weekly radio address, but less than the price of a night in the Lincoln Bedroom). Students should be prepaired to pay with thier lives.
