Florida Power's photovoltaics a 'healthy system'
Florida Power Corporation's joint research with UCF, Florida Solar Energy Center and Sandia National Laboratories to produce electricity from the sun has passed its first 10 months' tests with high marks:
"A very healthy system," Christy He-rig, FPC marketing development engineer, said of the solar array, half a football field in size, installed by the company at the Econ substation on University Boulevard, three miles west of UCF.
"So far we have been very pleased. It has been operating just the way it was predicted it should," she said.
The panels are set up in rows to catch the maximum sunlight, because they make electricity only when the sun hits the glass and sets off a reaction with a vapor deposition, producing an electric current. The process is clean, does not harm the environment and costs nothing for fuel.
The Econ substation panels were "factory" produced, as compared with "handcrafting" in earlier models, a change that brought down the installation cost.
Herig and Anthony Padilla, FPC's manager of new technoiogy, both said that the experiment will continue, not only to gather production-type data and experience integrating solar-produced power into the utility's system, but also to test newer solar techniques as they are developed in laboratories.
UCF's center located at Cape Canaveral, is Florida's laboratory for solar research.
Since UCF's College of Engineering and FSEC can also benefit from the experience, and possibly add to the improvements, the utility will make their research project available as a class lab. Students, as well as engineers, will soon be able to use it. Florida Power has been a leader in using sun power in remote areas, picking up the technique invented for space and refined by FSEC. Solar cells recharge batteries that power lights for channel buoys marking out the route for barges that carry fuel to FPC's Crystal River generating, plants.
The company uses solar cells on transmission line towers for cathodic protection systems. The electric charge on the metal tower slows down the rusting process.
Earlier this year UCF President Trevor Colbourn took part in the ceremony of lighting a sign on the Beeline Expressway between Orlando and Cape Canaveral. A solar cell powers the sign's lights.
The utility is looking to the possibility of installing solar power sources instead of extending transmission lines where new customers appear in remote areas. Further into the solar-produced electricity may supply peak midday demand imposed by airconditioners.
The Electric Power Research Institute and Sandia National Labs, plus several utilities are interested in a unified program to condition utilities in general to accept solar as the option of the future.
As fossil fuels get more expensive and environmentalists protest their use, the future of solar-generated power grows brighter.

Legislature keeps universities on track to meet growth goals
Hiy. ;er education was treated "very favorably" by the legislature that adjourned on June 2, said Dan Holsen-beck, associate vk e president for University Relations and UCF's official Tallahassee observer.
"Once again our Central Florida delegation went to work for us, looked after our interests and made it a successful year for us.
"We were fortunate to have local legislators in key positions. In the Senate, George Stuart was chairman of the Higher Education Committee and also a member of the Appropriations for Education Subcommittee, while Toni Jennings served on the full Senate Appropriations Committee."
"in the House we received consistent support. The truth is every member of our Central Florida delegation supported UCF on every issue," Holsenbeck said.
The legislature found itself with nonrecurring one-time dollars while at the same time the large, annually recurring expenses face a shrinking dollar supply, Holsenbeck observed.
As a consequence, UCF benefitted greatly in Library enhancement, in buying equipment for the film program and financing construction, including new campus roads and parking.
The budget includes UCF's request for 37 new faculty positions.
UCF will share in the non-recurring Library Information Resources appropriation of $11,944,543 to be prorated sys-temwide, with an additional share of
$750,000 that FAU, FIU and USF also will receive. The UCF Library got a $122,149 appropriation to make it the only Patent Deposit Library in the SUS.
The Board of Regents will allocate to the nine universities the following:
—A student financial aid package of $9 million.
- A n emininent scholar's fund of $14 million.
- A major gifts fund of $10 million. -Equipment matching grants totalling
$2,727,273. -Undergraduate education enhance
ment of $2.7 million. The undergraduate program in film,
television and recording arts, to be offered within the School of Communication received all the funds requested for first year operation, plus additional dollars to take care of equipment requests projected for the first three years (total $775,000).
A $1.1 million SUS fund will provide faculty awards of $7,500 each for outstanding teaching and advising at the undergraduate level.
In the category of construction financed by student fees, UCF requested and got $1,171,263 to boost the size of the first phase of the Student Union. Also, for asbestos and fire code corrections, $255,983 to be spent on student related facilities and $557,343 for dormitories. A $3.2 million construction fund for the fieldhouse and track was reap-propriated.

Colbourn pledges support for student-sponsored rally
In sympathy with student outrage over the brutal repression of Chinese students by their government, President Trevor Colbourn last week pledged his participation in a student government-sponsored rally scheduled for June 19 and granted faculty members the option of excusing students from classes in order to enlarge the protest.
"I am personally proud of those UCF students who have voiced their outrage over the mindless slaughter in Beijing," Colbourn said in a June 6 statement following an earlier meeting with students to discuss plans for the June 19 program.
While urging students, faculty and staff to "speak up, make our feelings known, comfort our surviving Chinese friends as best we can" by attending next Monday's event, Colbourn declined the invitation contained in a student government resolution to declare a "Class Walkout" on June 19 during the 11a.m. to 1 p.m. period the rally will be held and to grant honorary degrees to Chinese students who have been killed in the uprising.
Responding to the request, Colbourn said: "What can we do? As President Bush has noted, not much. Total sanctions would only harden the hardliners in
the Chinese Government still more. Nor would cancelling classes on the UCF campus for two hours on June 19 help. However, individual faculty members are welcome to exercise their option of excusing students from classes between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. on June 19, provided such action does not impair the integrity of the course. In no way can we support a class walkout. Nor would the awarding of posthumous degrees to thousands of unknown dead Chinese students achieve anything other than somehow make us feel better about ourselves. Such actions would put the University and the State University System in the inappropriate position of making a political statement."
In urging individuals to consult their consciences and to make their own individual political statements by attending the June 19 rally, Colbourn said: "As American citizens, we have rights ~ freedom, liberty, and the right to exercise them. This tragedy, perhaps reminiscent of the suppression of freedom in Hungary not many decades ago, serves to remind us how very fortunate we are. Thomas Jefferson once remarked that the tree of liberty needs to be fertilized

plan the remodeling of the Humanities and Fine Arts Building; $1,095,000 for-construction and equipment in the first of two phases to remodel the Chemistry Building; $400,000 for the Daytona Beach Research Center; $4 million for a joint-use classroom and faculty office building at the UCF/Daytona Beach campus.
On the main campus, planning to remodel the Administration Building is financed at $100,000, while $600,000 is set aside to plan CEBA III, which will be an 80,000 square foot home on campus for research activities.
Parking and roadways for the future fieldhouse and related uses have been funded at $1.7 million. Facilities Planning Director Jerry Osterhaus sa id jhe new roadway system will have outlets both to Alfaya Trail near Lake Claire and to McCullough Road that is now being constructed as afour laned, divided highway on the north edge of the campus.
UCF's Florida Solar Energy Center got $100,000 for Homebuilder Education and Training, $75,000 for photovoltaic system design, $100,000 for solar energy in schools workshops, $75,000 for the heatpipes energy efficiency demonstration project, and a carry-over of $3.4 million to relocate the center from Cape Canaveral to the Cocoa UCF/Brevard campus. UCF Physical Plant got $84,325 in energy conservation funds and Florida-Canada Institute at UCF received $50,000.
USPS salaries will be increased by four percent of base pay effective Jan. 1, 1990. The minimum increase will be $700.
Those in the administrative and professional category also get four percent increase of base pay effective Jan. 1.
Unit faculty will receive a five percent increase ( three percent across the board and two percent discretionary) at the beginning of the contract period, but no earlier than Aug. 7. Non-unit faculty will receive five percent on the same dates. The graduate student increase will be four percent.
Health care employees will receive a 3.5 percent increase effective July 1. Law enforcement classes get a three percent pay increase July 1 and a one-step increase on the employee's anniversary date.
PROCEDURE CHANGES
In other substantive legislation, the threshold value of equipment inventory was raised from $200 to $500 and for hardback books from $25 to $100.
Bid laws were modified to handle emergency situations, and travel reports were simplified. The legislature also authorized the universities to create trust funds for sale of art objects and to exchange objects under certain conditions.
The universities were also exempted from the requirement to "purge" mailing lists.

Colbourn pledges student rally support by the blood of tyrants; it should not be by the blood of students in Tiananmen Square."
Colbourn commended the student government for proposing the June 19 program. Pledging to attend, he said he thought "the campus community as a whole will wish to confirm its sense of sadness and its support for the student survivors in Beijing and other Chinese cities."
The student government resolution condemning the repression and proposing the June 19 rally was passed on June 4 by the student senate on a vote of 22 in favor and a single abstention.
June 19 was selected as the date of the UCF student protest because Chinese students had vowed to remain in Tiananmen Square until that date, actually June 20 in China and the date of the convening of the Chinese assembly.

For James L. Brice II, the invitation makes him the second UCF student to be afforded the unique opportunity. Records indicate that UCF and the Uni
versity of Michigan are the only U.S. schools to have students selected to attend ISU both years.
The two-month graduate-level study at Strasbourg will concentrate on eight areas: space resources and manufacturing; space engineering; space sciences; space business and manage ment; space policy and law; human performance in space; space architecture; and satellite applications.
While at UCF, Brice coordinated the Fifth Annual Space Policy symposium in February which brought six international experts to UCF to discuss problems associated with the exploration of Mars. He also is the founding president of the local chapter of Students for the Exploration and Development of Space.
The goal of the Space University is to provide programs for future space professionals from around the world. The international tone of the concept is borne out by a promise from the Soviet Union to send 12 students and five faculty to this year's session in Strasbourg. Included is cosmonaut Oleg At-kov, a cardiologist and veteran of several space missions.
Brice's $10,000 tuition to the International Space University has been provided by TRW Defense Systems, which likewise supported UCF student Angela Pray's enrollment in the 1988 session at MIT.
'Automatic' zip code changes need to be checked by receiver
Onmnnt f i r S f i r v i r es wi l l t rv tn hanHIp ar /^on hcnHIa Computer Services will try to handle July 1 zip code changes automatically, but the safe way to assure prompt delivery of mail from UCF in zones where changes are coming is to check on it personnally.
Bill Branch, Computer Services director, said that Computer Services will make every effort to "automatically" convert zip codes scheduled to change on July 1, 1989. "Students, faculty and staff, however, are reminded that final responsibility rests with each individual for insuring that their zip codes are correct.
"Automatic" changes will be based upon information furnished by the US Postal Service. "These changes are quite straightforward when there is a unique change of one zip code to an other. These are the ones the comput
er can handle. "The ones the computer has problems
with are those that change in the middle of a street or at a county or city line boundary. Those that fit this category will be sent to the post office to be changed," Branch said.
The Postal Service plaes to ease the transition further by delivering mail to old zip codes for one year. They caution, however, that delivery to old zip codes may be slower.
Branch advised, "If you receive mail regularly from UCF, check your next letter after July 1. It it's okay no further action (with UCF) is necessary. If you wish to make sure your zip code is correct, contact the Registrar's Office (students) or the Personnel Services Department (faculty and staff).
