MOYE RESIGNS FOR WASHINGTON POST Put lost a fine administrator when Alfred Leon Moye resigned as Vice-Chancellor of Student Affairs for a position in Jimmy Carter's administration this year. Moye is now the Deputy Commisioner for Higher and Continuing Education at the Department of Health. Education and Welfare in Washington D.C. A native of Maryland. Moye went to West Virginia Wesleyan College where he received a B.S. in chemistry. He came to Pittsburgh in 1968 as an assistant professor in chemistry. Moye received his doc torate in 1971. In 1972 he became Dean of Student Affairs and in 1973 was appointed Vice-Chancellor of Student Affairs where he remained until his Washington appointment. As Deputy Commisioner ho will be performing many of the same activities as at Pitt. He will work with the Special student Services, the agency for evaluating and accrediting post-secondary schools, managing higher education monetary sources and meeting with college presidents. As deputy commissioner he hopes to take initiative in giving colleges global perspective. Moye said. The average student has no knowledge or respect for other cultures. The United States cannot afford this isolationist's attitudes as the world is becoming more interdependent. He added that he will try to formulate programs that will provide an cncompassment of all cultures. Eor example. he explained. Why not offer comparative psychology of Russia and United States? There is more ethnic interest in Pittsburgh than any other place I have been to. Dr. Moye said. But. the ethnicity is not translated into the education.” Other advice to the Pitt Campus? Pitt has to gel rid of its Poor Boy Image' around Pittsburgh. It is more appreciated outside Pittsburgh than in its own area. Pill has a unique mission — 60-70percent of its student body is first generation college kids. On a more general basis Moye advised students to educate him or herself for the last |0b rather than the first. Many limes a student will not keep the first |ob after graduation 'Cilmg himself as an example Dr. Moye said he will not return to a career in chemistry because his knowledge of it is now obsolete. However, chemistry has helped me solve problems. I approach them in the same logical way I solved chemistry problems. Since Dr. Moye's '73 Vice-Chancellor appointment Moye feels one of his more important accomplishments at Put is computerizing the Student Job Placement Service. A student had to get up at 502 A M. in order to stand in line for an appointment. Now a student can register on the computer terminal and use video tape machines to find a |ob after graduation. Dr. Moye also helped develop a Learning Skills Center that now offers courses in everything from remedial or speed reading to Lacing Finals fearlessly. We had a Veterans' Affairs Office three years before the Federal government gave funds for n. he said. It is now part of the Special Services office. We also established a health fee that bettered the Student Health Service. We moved the off-campus housing office to Forbes Avenue, an off -campus area. The International Students Service now has three or four sub groups. And the lucical system, which is constantly refining. is the first in the country for establishing the rights and respon sibilities of faculty and students. I am proud of every single division in this office. Dr. Moye said, broadly smiling. Everyone accepted more work for less money. The office has been re trenched in three years. Dr. Moye's Vice-Chancellor position will be open for one year if he decides to return. If he stays in Washington D.C. FIFW may see as many positive, progressive and swift advances coming from Alfred Moye as Pill has. by Barb Tlwmas
