Haskell students out of room, luck
By BILL UYEKI
Staff Writer
Lately, there hasn't been much room to live at Haskell Indian Junior College.
Two of six residence halls are overcrowded at Haskell, one of three post-secondary schools for American Indian students, by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (HAI)
To compound problems, school officials say, only one of the two residence halls planned for construction will be built, because of a lack of funds.
Some of the school's residence halls, such as those for Haskell's athletes, have two students in a room, an "ideal situation," Smith said.
About 700 of Haskell's 1,091 students live in the residence halls, Benny Smith, acting director of residential programs, said Friday. The remaining students live off campus, and some have encountered landlords with landlords and rent payments.
Other halls, like the men's Oseoelca-Keoku Hall and the women's Winona Hall, sometimes have three or four students in rooms designed for two students.
Smith said that Oseola-Keokuk, the largest residence hall, had 282 students in 100 rooms this semester. Included is an alumnae room and a faculty room of 22 rooms for honor students only, which had not more than two per room. But, minus the honor wing, the rest of the hall averages 134 students.
"I don't like cramming four people into one room," said a student in the men's hall. "I don't see how a person can get an education like this.
"Some people don't care how they live, but I do."
Another student said that some at Haskell didn't care about studying, which made it difficult for roommates in a crowded room who wanted to study.
another student said, "if a guy has a lot of clothes, we have to bring in an extra closest." of times you leave your clothes in your luggage.
Some freshman students at the men's hall complained that they didn't have a choice of what room to live in, or who their roommates would be. Others said that hall mates would sometimes enter room checks, sometimes entering rooms at 4 a.m., every day for a week.
Joe Hathcote, residence hall supervisor at Oscela-Keokuk, said students had a choice of rooms to live in, but new students who didn't know anybody at Haskell were assigned to rooms. He said he hoped housing applications would be offered to students next fall, so students could list preferred roommates.
BOCO...
KU$'s first attempt at computer dating will probably succeed because KU and IJ are closely related.
"We both have big bell towers and big dorms," he said.
The deadline for applications is Friday.
The cost is $3.50 individually or $2.75 for a
manual training package.
BOCO offered to put a picture in the Kansan of large groups that filled out applications. Six living groups have accepted her offer and have appeared in a variety of poses.
The name of each person who applies will appear on the list of every person he is matched with. All answers to questions on applications are confidential, Damigis said.
Kansan makeup gets fifth place
The Kansas recently placed fifth in the college and university division of the Inland Daily Press Association's typography and makeup contest.
The presentation of the award was made yesterday at the association's annual spring meeting in New York.
The Indiana Daily Student, University of Indiana, won first place, followed by the Columbia Missouri, University of Missouri; the Daily Illini, University of Illinois, and the Daily Iowa, University of Illinois.
Inspections have been conducted in the past for "disciplinary problems" he said, but there haven't been any this semester. Mr. Nastasaki has been on disbursement was on on Haitong can.
Wallace Galluzi, president of Haskell, said the residence halls were insufficient because they were built when Haskell was a high school.
"Besides that," he said, "there is a lack of housing in the community."
Accepting fewer students would ease the housing situation, Gallucci said, but it is more important to make Haskell available to many Indian students.
"We don't think we ought to cut a kid's education to make more room in the bedroom."
Gullianzi said that Sen. James Pearson, R-Kan., has been instrumental in helping with the effort to build a new hospital.
Lee Gerkin, research assistant to Pearson, said yesterday that construction on the new residence hall at Haskell would begin within 30 to 60 days, and would be finished within a year after the building starts.
Gerkin said the reason for the lack of money to build two halls was that a possible error in the architectural engineer's estimate of the halls' total cost.
The original estimate, he said, was $2.85 million for both halls. This amount was allotted to Haskell from the BIA for the fiscal 1975, he said.
Beginning last December, Gerklin said, bids were taken for the construction of the halls, and the lowest bid was $7.78 million—about 10% less than the highest bidding period last only 60 days, he said, and because of wage increases and higher construction costs, any rebids would have to be made within two weeks.
"This came up at a particularly bad time." Gerkin said.
"We're caught in the inflation spiral," Gallucci said.
With the available funds, Gerkin said, one residence hall will be built, along with the parking lot and recreational facilities for two halls. Construction of the second hall would cost an additional $1.4 million, he said;
Because it is the fiscal year 1978, Gerkin said, Pearson plans to request funds for fiscal year 1977.
Within the next two months, he said, Pearson will give statements and testimony on why Haskell needs more money to a subcommittee of the Interior Department, the State Department, the State Department and Pearson were optimistic about receiving additional funds for fiscal year 1977.
About 300 Haskell staff live off-campus, Smith said. The students live in apartments scattered across the city, Smith said. He was also houseing on the east side of Lawrence.
