"The October 1998 edition of Healthcare Informatics recognized the Health Science Center by including its Web site and stating that we provide an 'excellent tool kit for testing procedures for embedded devices,'" said A. Jerome York, vice president and chief information officer. "This is another acknowledgement of the excellent planning and preparation that has taken place for the institution's Year 2000 challenge."

The UTHSCSA Web site is listed with a select group of online resources at the conclusion of an article titled "Before You See Smoke." The story discusses hospitals' responses to the Y2K issue, noting that they "rank at the bottom of the list, along with cash-strapped educational institutions, as the least-mobilized industry sector for addressing Year 2000 problems."

Hospitals face breakdowns in biomedical systems with embedded microprocessors. These include electrocardiograms, ventilators, IV pumps and CT scanners.

The Health Science Center site is also one of 27 university sites worldwide listed as recommended Y2K references by EDUCAUSE, a national non-profit advocacy group for higher education and information technology. The list is on the Web.

The UTHSCSA site contains Y2K guidance on common software, compliance status of hundreds of embedded logic devices and systems, and the written responses on Y2K readiness from nearly 300 of the Health Science Center's suppliers of critical goods and services.

Y2K planning at the Health Science Center began in 1995 with identification of critical systems vulnerable to the problem.

The current focus is on critical suppliers and the exchange of electronic information with other organizations.

Y2K problems will occur because many computers are programmed to read years as two digits instead of four. A non-Y2K-compliant computer could see the year 2000 as 1900, for example.

The President's Year 2000 Task Force began meeting in September 1997. Members include Dr. Gary Clark, medicine; Renee Cornett, dental hygiene; Margaret Drake, institutional management support; Dr. Deborah Greene; vice president for institutional effectiveness and planning; Molly Greene, vice president's office; Dr. Gary Guest, dental diagnostic science; and Murray Howard, vice president's office.

Members also include Dr. Terry Mikiten, associate graduate dean; Dr. Ruth Pakieser, nursing; Christopher Kirby, intellectual property administration; Dr. Frank Stafford, computing resources; Frank Quijano; instrumentation services; Jim Barrett, computing resources; and Noemi Trejo, computing resources.

Valuable efforts by 76 departmental Y2K representatives have produced inventories of 12,000 campus items, including serial numbers for the items.

NIH grants and agreements increased 8 percent in FY98

NIH had not published final FY98 results as of Wednesday (Jan. 20), but the preliminary figure is consistent with the total of grants and other agreements recorded by the Office of Grants Management in FY98, said Jane Youngers, grants management director.

The Health Science Center's increase corresponded to a rise in NIH appropriations. The NIH experienced a 7 1/2 percent increase in FY98, Youngers said. "We should be proud that our faculty stayed competitive and took advantage of the additional monies NIH awarded," she said.

The federal government's fiscal year differs from the state's fiscal year by one month, she noted.

Grants management likely will have final numbers from the NIH in four to six weeks, and will make those available to department chairs and the Executive Committee at that time, Youngers said.

With the NIH increase as a foundation, total sponsored programs increased by 14 percent in FY98 to an all-time high of $128.5 million. The FY97 total was $112.5 million.

Though the parking lots are full, few problems are reported

The student "D" lot near Louis Pasteur Drive was filled to capacity one day this week. First-year students utilized the off-campus parking lot on Datapoint Drive.

Although more questions were asked, not many more problems occurred than in a typical week before construction, according to the University Police Department.

People improperly parking their vehicles were issued warnings. Starting Monday, Jan.25, citations will be issued. Anyone with parking questions may call university police at ext. 2790.

"I want to thank everyone for their cooperation; it has been truly outstanding," said University Police Chief Robert Bratten.

As more construction vehicles enter the campus in upcoming weeks, parking and driving on the campus may be affected further. University police will keep everyone updated through messages on a marquee sign at the Floyd Curl Drive entrance, on the university police Web site, in The News, and on fliers.

Pick a catalog, any catalog

Curtis Nickel (left) from general stores speaks with Steve King and Jennifer Wood, purchasing, during the 1999 Boise Cascade Office Products Show. The show attracted hundreds of faculty and staff and introduced them to new products in the 1999 Boise Cascade catalog. All the items are available through general stores, a division of general services. Nickel explained that in addition to the catalog, which includes more than 10,000 items, a new, slimmer "preferred" catalog is available for the first time. The new books, which contain items that can be ordered on next-day turnaround, are available by calling general stores, ext. 5982.

Theft alert issued by hospital council

In the North Texas incidents, two men posing as equipment repairmen entered the surgery units of two hospitals and stole $750,000 in laparoscopes and endoscopes, and $500,000 in x-ray equipment. In one case, the suspects were wearing green scrub suits, lab coats and vendor ID badges. Security videos show the equipment was transported in a two-ton truck and conversion van.

The university police Crime Prevention Unit wants faculty, staff and students to be aware of the thefts and to report any suspicious activities to the police department.

RAHC meeting

Dr. Thomas retires

Former holder of professorships in departments of pharmacology and toxicology in several medical schools, including Iowa, Virginia and West Virginia, he mentored many doctoral students and trained several postdoctoral fellows. From 1973 to 1982, he served as associate dean of the School of Medicine at West Virginia University. Dr. Thomas joined the Health Science Center after five years of corporate research. He oversaw the university's support services and facilities used in academic training and research, and received many appointments and awards, including membership in the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences. His most recent honor, bestowed in December, is the TSBR Distinguished Service Award from the Texas Society for Biomedical Research.

In Memoriam

Long worked with U.S. veterans
in Frank Tejeda Outpatient Clinic

A native of Michigan, Dr. Long earned her medical degree from Michigan State University in 1987. She completed a four-year internship and residency at the Health Science Center in 1991 and a geriatric psychiatry fellowship at the university in 1993. That year, she became a staff psychiatrist at the South Texas Veterans Health Care System and assistant professor at the Health Science Center.

Among her many responsibilities, she worked with the VA's Mental Health Outpatient Service and at the Frank Tejeda Outpatient Clinic doing compensation and pension exams for veterans.

Dr. Long was a Diplomate of the National Board of Medical Examiners and of the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. In 1996, she received the Department of Psychiatry's Excellence in Teaching Award.

In lieu of flowers, her family requests that memorials be made to the Battered Women's Shelter in San Antonio.

She was the daughter of Maurice and Marilyn Long.
