EDUCATION  \nDAILY  \nThe Independent dally news service foradministrators in postsecondaryeducation.  \nMonday,January 28,1985  \n# LITTLE EXPECTED FROM ED REORGANIZATION STUDY;PERSONNEL CHANGES IMMINENT\n\nEducation Department officials,following White House orders,have launchedseveral investigations into restructuring the department.But most of theirexamination centers on streamlining ED bureaucracy and,according to top EDsources,would bring few changes noticeable to department outsiders.  \nActing ED Secretary Gary Jones is investigating several recommendations madelast year by the conservative Heritage Foundation,instructing ED officials tostudy merging the National Institute of Education,the National Center forEducation Statistics and ED's Office of Education Research and Improvement.  \nJones also is looking into slashing the number of ED regional offices,thereare now 10,combining ED's Intergovernmental and Interagency Affairs officewith its Legislation and Public Affairs Office,and merging the Office ofManagement with the Office of Planning,Budget and Evaluation.  \nBureacracy Reduced     The changes,which were recommended in the HeritageFoundation's \"Mandate for Leadership II,\"are geared at \"reducing the layers ofmanagement,\"according to an ED official(HED,Nov.20)·  \nJones,who said he may leave ED as early as this week,said the study groupswill report to William Bennett,who was to appear before senators today on hisconfirmation as the new education secretary.Upon nominating Bennett as ED'shead earlier this month,President Reagan directed the National Endowment forthe Humanities chairman to examine ED's structure and Jones began the investi-gation immediately.  \nA top ED official close to Bennett said that as secretary,Bennett would con-sider results from the Jones-appointed study groups and look into other stream-lining.But the source,who declined to be named,said it is unlikely thatdrastic changes would come during Bennett's tenure,despite the White House'sdesire to see the department abolished,or at least downgraded.  \nFew Substantial Changes\"I think he [Bennett]will look at everything,but I just don't think there is support for very radical changes in status onthe Hil1,\"the official said.\"Whatever reorganization takes place,it may notbe a story beyond the [Washington,D.C.]beltway.\"  \nChanges also are brewing among top ED posts.Jones,who served as undersecre-tary to former Education Secretary Terrel Bell and wanted to take Bell's postwhen he resigned,said,\"It is time that I left and he [Bennett]have his ownnumber one person.\"Jones said he is unsure where he will work next but said,\"I've got people who are discussing options with me.\"  \nSources say Gary Bauer,ED's deputy undersecretary for planning,budget and(more)  \n# LITTLE EXPECTED FROM ED REORGANIZATION STUDY(Cont.)\n\nevaluation,is the leading contender for the undersecretary position Jones willvacate.Bauer prepared Bennett for his Senate Labor and Human Resources Com-mittee hearing that was to begin today,and in an intervlew,Bauer said heknows Bennett\"personally.\"  \nIn addition,Anne Graham,assistant secretary for ED's Office of Legislationand Public Affairs,has been offered a job in the National Aeronautics andSpace Administration's external relations office,sources said,but she hasn'tdecided whether to take it.Graham did not return repeated phone calls to heroffice.  \nAccording to a top ED source,most of the department's other presidentiallyappointed heads are hoping to remain during Bennett's tenure.  \n\"A lot of new secretaries come on board and it takes a year or more beforepresidential appointees drift away and new ones come in,\"explained anotherofficial.\"Bennett has some fairly clear and often-expressed views about hiseducation philosophy and I don't know whether or how many [current officials]might be uncomfortable with his views.\"--Robin Wilson  \n# EMPLOYMENT FOR JOURNALISM
