University Daily Kansan Wednesday, February 20, 1980 9 Student aid use studied KU students are out找 surveys as part of an attempt by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare to improve the distribution of federal funds. The surveys are part of a long-term program by HEW to find out how funds made available by the Middle Income Financial Assistance Act of November 1978 have been used. Richard Joseph, technician with the Managing Management Sciences, is said. yesterday. Joseph said that AMS, Silver Springs, Md., was paying the randomly selected students $3 for completing the survey. The survey was mailed to the students this fail and AMS said they would send students when they received the completed surveys. AMS also gives the financial aid office of participating schools $100 for its cooperation in helping the company select students for the survey and in compiling information. Jerry Rogers, director of financial aid, said he was not sure what the $100 would be used for. office," Rogers said. "The money will probably be put into a University aid fund somewhere." U. S. was one of 174 colleges in the United States chosen randomly by AMS. The only other college in Kansas selected was Kansas Newman in Wichita. "I didn't really know what to do with the money, because we are not really an income The response rate has been about 50 percent. Joseph said, "I think people are hesitant to fill out the surveys because they know they are from the government. It's a lot of information," he thinks the government is harassing them. Information gathering problems slow Title IX recommendations Recommendations from the Kansas Board of Regents task force on invertebrate athletics funding are still under discussion to John Wisser, task force chairman. The task force has been meeting since the end of 2013, and athletics are funded at six Raeford schools; compliance with Title IX, laws which require equity in men's and women's sports. Visser, who reported task force progress to the Council of Presidents last week at the University of Kansas, said differences in the six athletic programs had made gathering information difficult and time consuming. Visser, president of Emporia State University, said the recommendations would be ready in time for the Regents to use them in their 1982 budget requests. "There is a genuine desire on all of us to move ahead quickly." Visser said, pointing out that the shortage of funds, that we're almost going to have to start taking money away from the bank, is too much. Visser also said money to bring women's athletics into compliance with TITLE IX would have to come from gate receipts, student fees, state support or a combination of the three. Each of the major Regents schools—KU, Emporia State, Fort Hays State University, Kansas State University, Pittsburgh State university—are represented on the task force. the seventh Regents school is the Kansas Technological Institute in Salina Bob Macmur, athletic director, and Del Brinkman, chairman of the University of Kansas Athletic Corporation Board, will meet force, which will meet Feb. 25 in Emporia. Higher rates, more use push KU's utilities costs to $3 million By GREG SACKUVICH Staff Reporter The University of Kansas spent $400,000 more to heat and air condition its buildings in fiscal 1978 than in fiscal 1978 according to Facilities Operation figures. Change in usage CHANGE IN DOLLARS In 1978 $2.6 million was spent on natural gas, electricity and water but $3 million was spent in 1979. The volume of electricity used increased nine percent in 1979 and the amount of water used increased 15 percent. Some of this increase was due to higher utility rates, but some also was due to an increase in the amount of utilities used. Dewey's assistant, assisting Devine, was on vacation yesterday.
19781979percent change
Electricity$1,683,057$2,098,34524.68%
Natural Gas$798,659$710,6507.61%
Water$194,446$203,83726.30%
Oil$87,493$354,25876%
Total$2,618,400$3,388,89012%
The amount of natural gas used decreased by 15 percent over that time because natural gas supplies were cut off to the University in January and February 2014, when the supply dropped off in times of high demands on the gas companies by contractual agreement. KU burned three times more oil in 1978 than in 1978. In 1978 the power plant ran on oil for 26 days and in 1979 the power plant ran on oil 62 days. The amount of oil used was three times greater in 1797 than in 1787 and the price paid for the oil was four times greater. West Germany gives art slides to KU The Federal Republic of Germany donated 718 color slides of German artwork to the University of Kansas this semester. The gift was secured for KJ by J. Anthony Burzle, professor emeritus of German, with the cooperation of the Consulate General of Germany in Chicago. The glass-bound color slides will be added to the slide collection library of art and architecture in the Helen Foresman Spencer Museum of Art. "This gift—to my knowledge the largest gift of slides to the museum—should give a tremendous lift to our German art holdings in slides," Burle said. The slides' subjects range from medieval to modern art, and includes examples of German sculpture, architecture, and painting. "It's very high-quality photography—better than most commercial slides that we could buy." Rarick said. Ron Rarken, slide curator, said the value of the German collection was about $1,000. The slides probably won't be available for classroom use until next fall because of the amount of cataloging involved, he said. The slide collection of the Kress Foundation Department of Art History is noncirculating for the public. KU faculty will receive main slides for classroom use, Rarick said. WE GIVE BIG DISCOUNTS!
