                   Friday,November 1,1985  \n# HIGHER EDUCATION ADMINISTRATORS CONCERNED OVER AIDS AMONG STUDENTS\n\nMIAMI BEACH,Fla.--Although Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome(AIDS)hasnot yet become the emotional issue for higher education that it has for ele-mentary and secondary schools,college and university administrators are con-cerned about it.  \nThey are concerned not only about AIDS victims,but about the disease's trans-mission and what it may mean as a public relations problem and legal quagmire.  \nAt the American Council on Education's annual meeting here,those administra-tors gathered to talk about developing AIDS issues and policies for their cam-puses。\"As a former student affairs officer,the problem piques my interest and  \nconcern,\"said Donna Shavlik,director of ACE'sOffice of Women in Higher Education and moderatorof the ACE session.  \nRight now,AIDS poses only a small medical andethical problem for most colleges and universities,according to Dr.RichardKeeling,director of the University of Virginia's student health center.\"It'sbasically a public relations problem,\"he said.  \nCurrently,there are about 14,000 confirmed cases of AIDS,Keeling said,a50 percent increase from 10 years ago.Most of the victims are homosexualmales or intravenous drug users and are typically in their 30s and 40s,headded.Because most victims are over 30,colleges “are not likely to see largenumbers of AIDS cases in undergraduates,although graduate and professionalstudents are likely to be more at risk,\"Keeling told the group.  \nUnclear How ManyBut it is unclear how many undergraduates may be infec-ted with the AIDS virus but do not show any symptoms of the disease,which hasan incubation period of from six months to four years,he added.  \nAnd those students who may be infected but show no evidence of AIDS are alsomost likely to transmit the disease because they feel healthy and continue tohave contact with others,he said.\"The main concern on college campuses is thenumber of healthy carriers.\"  \n\"AIDS,however,is a difficult disease to get since it is carried in bodyfluids primarily exchanged during sexual activity,\"he said.  \n\"People ask me'How safe are dormitory rooms?”Keeling said,\"to which I re-spond,'It depends on what you do in them.'\"(more)  \nEqually unclear to the 11kelihood of AIDS becoming a major health threat oncollege and university campuses is the legal liability of those institutions.  \nACE General Counsel Sheldon Steinbach said that ACE has done gome research intothe liability issue and has come up with several worrisome cases in whichcolleges were held liable for events that occurred off campus but affectedcollege students.  \nThat trend could cause a problem for a college that allows an infected studentto remain on campus,although \"if a university acts on the best medical infor-mation available,it is probably not liable,\"he said.  \nPrivacy IssuesThe issue of AIDS also raises privacy issues:for exam-ple,whether university officials should inform a student that his or her room-mate has AIDS,Steinbach said.Universities also,would be faced with the ques-tion of whether to segregate victims on campus,he said.  \nTo protect themselves,colleges and universities should develop general guide-lines for dealing with AIDS victims and should provide counseling for infectedstudents.  \nCollege administrators should develop public education programs for thosegroups at risk,even if it means going into gay bars,Shavlik said.Keelingagreed with Shavlik,noting that most student health centers are geared towardthe undergraduate and will likely not reach that part of the student communitymost at risk.  \n\"You don't have graduate and professional students as a captive audience in thedorms.And you don't have an on-campus group of intravenous drug users as youdo for gay students,so you must go outside the traditional academic communi-ty,\"he said.  \nThat,too,brings up an interesting legal point for colleges because homosex-uality is still
