Holder m By Jean Ralston Gamacock Staff Writer USC President James B. Holderman told the U.S. House of Representative Rules Committee on Monday that governmental information management is inefficient and the government should reimburse higher education institutions for paperwork and report-keeping costs. "The malaise that federal program administration is causing in universities is very real and is sapping the strength of our universities in achieving ex cellence in teaching, research, and service for our communities and society," Holderman said. i Holderman spoke at a public hearing of the rules committee in the Campus Room of Capstone Dormitory. The hearing's purpose was to give state and local officials in government and business the | opportunity to contribute to a congressional review of federal programs and regulations. THE HEARING, which was brought to Columbia by U.S. Rep. Butler Derrick, D-3rd District, was the only one of its kind to be held on the state and local level. Holderman testified that 27 governmental agencies involving race, sex, and age discrimination and other work related responsibilities require the university to fill out separate reports, which causes the highest informational rlom<inr)c onH (ha drttatact finan.

The cost-reimbursement principle would make federal program administrators re-examine the use and value of the information they require from the universities, Holdermansaid. MUCH OF THE information collected by the federal agencies have vague or, in some cases, completely unknown uses, he said. This situation is caused by problems in reporting and recordkeenine requirements. including unnecessary reports, duplication of reports, lack of standardization of data elements, unscheduled reporting requirements and inadequate instructions and guidance, according to Holderman.

Holderman praised the efforts of the committee and the House of Representatives in attending to the needs to reduce the reporting and paperwork burdens of the federal programs in universities, state and local government and the private sector. "Today, there are no mechanisms in our in tergovernmental system for coordinating the efforts of university administrators and federal program managers to confront the complex and difficult management and operating issues that frustrate and burden both sides," Holderman said. A REPORT BY two USC professors in the Department of Government and International Studies was submitted to the committee by Holderman. This report, made in June 1977, surveyed how federal and state program reporting requirements affected university operations and what the major problems were.
