U of L: For Better or for Worse BY STEVE WINGFIELD 1975-76 Editor, The Louisville Cardinal One of the definitions of impression in Webster's New World Dictionary is a notion, feeling, or recollection, esp. a vague one. This is the definition under which | will operate for this essay. The most common impressions that | have heard during my years at this uni- versity are: -An incredibly large high school with teachers masquerading as professors. -A conglomerate of different schools and programs, all of which are underfunded, -Mickey Mouse's Kingdom. -A growing urban university with lots of potential, little of which has been realized. -A poor excuse for an institution of higher learning with some programs that rate as good. -An institution plagued by budgetary insufficiencies and poor leadership that pushed the quality down. -A pretty good school, but things could be better. My impression, though not all that original, is all of the above. To say this is not as ridiculous as it would seem. U of L itself is a mishmash, or to use the academic jargon, a compen- dium of multi-varied composition. There is no one identity associated with the univer- sity, its administrators, faculty, programs, students, and role in the community. U of L has developed rather strangely through the years. Starting the 1960's as a financially solvent municipal university that catered to the elite of the Jefferson County population, it rapidly went to the verge of bankruptcy and entered the state system of higher education. At that point the so-called walls of the university began to break down, and people of every socio-economic background began enroll- ing at U of L.
