Married students find life tough and boring
By Janet Snyder
Kansan Staff Reporter
What is it like to be married to a KU student? It's not always easy—and sometimes boring.
Karen Warner and her husband Chuck, Wichita first year law student, are expecting their first child. Karen does some baby-sitting.
Karen said there are times when she would like to be back in school—especially when Chuck is studying. She said she gets bored—so bored in fact that she is now taking a correspondence course so she will have something to do when she has to study.
Cecily Hudson likes being connected with University life. That's one reason she got a job on the Hill.
Study differences
Her husband, Ban, Fort Scott senior, will graduate in January in mechanical engineering. Cecily said she can keep busy while Ban is studying, but there are times he resents the fact that she doesn't have to study and he does.
Both Lyndy Brummer and her husband, Tuck, are in school.
Lyndy said neither get bored because they both have to study. But she said it's hard to cook because some nights Tuck will go to work at 6 p.m., and she might not get home until 5:30.
Lyndy is in education and Tuck is in advertising.
Karyn Hoener is also in education. Her husband, Dick, is in civil engineering and business.
She thinks it's extremely hard to be a housewife and a student. Karyn said it's hard to organize her time, and she doesn't feel
she has enough time to do both housework and study well.
Linda Cox is teaching, supervising student teachers and taking graduate courses. She has just finished her masters degree and is just beginning her doctorate work. Her husband, Kent, is also working on his doctorate in chemistry. Linda and Kent also have an 11-month old so... David.
Linda said her biggest problem is a lack of time to see her husband and son. And her son poses
a slight problem when Linda tries to study.
It helps to be efficient, Linda said, because a housewife can find herself in so many roles, and there is so much pressure.
All the wives agreed that it was important to be able to talk to their husbands about each others interests. They find it enjoyable to learn something about their husbands field of study, even though they may not understand. They all just wish they had more time.
Button profits to buy blazers
Those "Go Big Blue" buttons sold at the KU-lown State and KU-K-State football games helped raise money while raising students' spirits.
The Interfraternity Service Projects committee, which sold the buttons, gave the profits to the Alumni Association, said Mike Davis, San Francisco senior and IFC Service Projects committee chairman.
The money will be used to help buy blazers for the KU Basketball Band, said Dick Wintermote, head of the Alumni Association.
About 4,000 buttons were sold for 25 cents each.
