Efforts to increase information promised
A more concerted effort will be made in the future to inform prospective students of extracurricular activities at the University and in the area where these communications Committee decided last night.
In a discussion with the committee John Myers, director of admissions, said there was "crying need" for information on the non-academic aspects of KU.
nere's no simple document that
they're students are doing the time
they've not in class.
Dave Shapiro, committee member,
characterized this year as an organizational
one with regard to the establishment of
information to the prospective KU student.
Myers said when one student wrote to him recently wanting information on the student organizations at KU, he had to xerox the information from the campus phone directory.
Shapiro he was told by Del Shankel, executive vice chancellor; that there were some monies in a contingency fund that could be used to mail information to prospective students and establish other channels to inform them.
Shapiro told the campus was KU'S third biggest selling point and that more should be told about activities on it and in the Lawrence community.
Zionism . . .

original Zionist movement was a form of racism, however.
El-Hodiri said the resolution probably would have been postponed if Dani P. Meynahun, United States ambassador to the United Nations, hadn't made the issue seem like a confrontation between Third World countries and the western world.
by rousing the issue, Moynan made them (countries that were ready to vote for postponement) not postpone and vote for action on the resolution," he said.
Countries voted for the anti-Zionism act, El-Hodiri said, because they "were expressing frustration at the fact that there was a movement for peace (in the Middle East)."
El-Hodir said it would be "silly" for the United States to cutback on aid to the United Nations because the U.S. would be acting against its own interests.
Myers said the effort would be directed toward students, not recruiting prospective students.
"We really don't have to recruit," he said. "If we do an adequate job of telling them what's here, nothing else should be necessary."
Kevin Flynn, committee chairman, said an advertisement would be run next week to inform KU students of the Committee's persons willing to work with the Committee.
Flynn also said the Student Senate was putting together a brochure for distribution to prospective students informing them of its work.
Stan Williams, black Wichita junior, said, "I've come to recognize racism in its various forms and it seems that individual identities are secondary to institutionalized forms."
TODAY: A report on the new HELEN FORSEMAN SPENCER MUSEUM will be presented by Charles Eldridge, director of the art museum, at 3:30 p.m. in the
Ernie Garcia, Chicano assistant to the dean of men, said that institutionalized racism was best seen in token federal jobs given to some key minor leaders. This included Geraldine Guzman in the 1970s and early 1970s. These jobs kept the leaders from being effective in minority
Williams sighted several instances where black organizations at KU had been discriminated against by student organizations or where projects funded by student organizations didn't pertain to blacks.
Williams said that blatant individual forms of racism, such as jokes about blacks or derogatory graffiti on bathroom walls, were easy to deal with. He said in interviews he found that the system and student organizations were frustrating to deal with.
TONIGHT: THE KU FOLK DANCE CLUB will meet at 7:30 and also at 2:30 p.m. from 8:30 to 10:00 at the Lindley Observatory.

"In most of the United States, people in minority groups are not in positions of power," said Tom Moore, an administrator in the Kansas Civil Rights Commission.

On Campus
KU did receive a recommendation to be granted authority to dispense additional fees that are collected from enrollment beyond that projected, he said.
At the Med Center, a 12 per cent hospital request was cut to 6 per cent. The pharmacy and clinical support staff were cut to 9 per cent. All capital improvement programs at the

fund be supplemented by $200,000 from physical plant salaries that would normally have gone to temporary and seasonal workers.
"However, I'm sure the University will make a case for all of them." he said.
As a graduate student involved in several student organizations, Garcia said that he could see how KU often worked in the same way.
KU administrators will defend the 1977 budget before Gov. Robert F. Bennett N. 18. The governor isn't obliged to adhere to Bibb's proposed cuts.
A requested $85,583 to provide additional summer session faculty to equal increased enrollment figures was cut completely. Nitcher said.
"Minority people need to hold positions of real power and policy making," Garcia said.
Amounts requested to fund the new law school and visual arts facilities were left unchanged. Other capital improvement projects calling for $3,547,000 were deleted. The Robinson gymnasium and Malott Hall additions and initial construction money for the computer facility were capital improvement projects rejected.
Nicher said that Bibb had deleted all proposals for new University programs, as well.
Med Center were cut, including the proposed radiation therapy center.
Nitcher said that Bibb proposed $62,500 of the budget $364,400 for supplies and utility costs to service new buildings. The funds would be used mainly to close in and heat the new law school so contractors might finish inside work during the winter.
Blackbird said that there were three forms of racism he had seen at KU. They are individual racist remarks made by students of institutional racism and racial violence.
Kenny Blackbird, Lawrence graduate student, said institutionalized forms of racism at KU had kept Indians from attending KU.
"Violence must be met with violence," Blackbird said.
Blackbird said, "10 per cent of the American student Indians go to Haskell (Indian Junior College), but only six tenths of one per cent go to KU."
The HOPE Award will be presented tomorrow at halftime of the University of Kansas-University of Colorado football game.
Blackbird said that once his car had been vandalized by five white students and that they were the victims of a carjacking.
At Wichita State University on Oct. 25, Bibb said that if more hard decisions weren't made on the individual campuses concerning budgets, the trend toward more state control over higher education would be advanced.

The five finalists are: Allan Gicer, assistant professor of political science; J. Hammond McNish, adjunct professor of business; Calder M. Pickett, professor of business; Dana Quinn, professor of English; and Les Young, professor of journalism.
