KU students who experience shyness may want to attend a workshop next month titled "Overcoming Shyness," sponsored by Adult Life Resource Centers.
The workshop will be from 7 to 10 p.m. April 15 and 22 in the Cincinnati 862 BSA aisle. Information will focus on understanding and overcoming shyness, including the use of a substitute for an substitute studying for social contact, according to Arthur Thomas, associate professor of counseling.
Some students cope with shyness by just being good students and studying a lot," he said.
"Some students cope with shyness by just being good students and studying a lot," he said. "Instead of socially interacting, they just study."
Thomas, who heads the workshop, said that those sthy students who substitute excessive studying for social interaction during their education would suffer later.
"After school they will not have
demands for studying," he said.
"Because they haven't experienced social interaction they will encounter anxiety."
Thomas said also that some students encountered anxiety because they had had few dates.
"Some KU students have never had a date," he said. "They are usually too shy to ask a person out, so they just postpone a one form of self-defeating behavior."
THOMAS SAID that shyness, which could be successfully overcome by individuals who wished to do so. Shyness affects 85 million Americans, Thomas
Situational shyness, according to Thomas, is anxiety that a person experiences just before he encounters an unfamiliar situation.
"I think 100 percent of the American public would admit to situational shyness at one time or another," he said, "but for some it is more traumatic."

Lehman said the investigation, the work of his team, was being completed. The findings arrived in his office about two weeks ago, he said, and were circulated to all parties involved in the investigation so they could be ready for the conclusion.
The executive board of the Association, which meets on April 28, will consider what action to take on the report, he said.
"They will decide whether to accept it, reject it, and whether to make it public," Lehman said.
The Association is investigating charges stemming from a 1976 research project headed by Crawford in Belize in Central America.
A research assistant for the project alleged that Crawford used improper research

An investigation into Crawford's research methods by the KU vice chancellor of research and graduate studies at the time found no evidence to support the findings.
