The Board of Overseers gave final approval yesterday to Wacker as Dr. Dana L. Farnsworth's successor, effective July 1. When he takes over, or possibly beforehand, he will devote some time to UHS clinical duties.
"I want to find out what is currently being done in terms of facilities and people," he said. "If you're going to change it [UHS], you have to know what you're changing."
"UHS performs a reasonably good service now, and it has a good reputation among college health services. I don't envision any drastic changes, not immediately." he said.
Wacker said he wants to get as much feedback as possible about UHS. "I suspect I can find this out more from the consumers than the providers," he added.
While Wacker was interviewed yesterday afternoon in the PBBH Biophysics Laboratory, where he has studied the application of biochemistry to clinical medicine, President Pusey met privately with the chiefs of the various departments of UHS, to discuss Wacker's appointment.
