Taylor Sees Sex Barriers Diminishing
Speaking before a small audience at the first session of a career seminar sponsored by the Commission on the Status of Women, Emily Taylor, dean of women, said Tuesday that she thought sex barriers were diminishing.
Taylor said that according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the number of women in the labor force should increase by 43 per cent during the next decade.
"Even though this paints a rosey picture," she said, "all career opportunities will not be available."
Some career roles traditionally filled by women are now being over by man, Taylor said, such as nursing positions or grade school teachers.
"I think that's great. The more men inadvertently expose themselves to be forced to look further," she said.
Industries are pushing for women to fill engineering jobs previously held by men to such an extent that the School of Engineering has issued a publication urging women to consider engineering as a career possibility, she said.
possibilities," Taylor said.
Tom Moore of the Kansas Commission on
waste discrimination partially stemmed from
traditional employment practices.
"People find themselves saying, 'It just wouldn't feel right,' when they are confronted with the possibility of a woman policeman," Moore said.
Another problem that women have had, Moore said, is an inability to qualify for jobs in higher positions because they cannot gain experience on a lower level.
"With women, just as in the case of race.
employers are being compelled to be more responsible about rentments," he said.
Moore said about one-fifth of the total caseload handled by the Kansas Commission on Civil Rights dealt with sex-based complaints.
"We've just really started our investigations around the first of this year," he said.

WILLIAM H. SPENCER CANDIDATE FOR CITY COMMISSION SPEAKS TO KU
I am Bill Spencer, candidate for City Commission of the City of Lawrence. Before I tell you about my qualifications, I want to tell you something about myself.
I was born and raised in Chicago and came to the University of Kansas in the summer of 1962. After living in Pearson Scholarship Hall for the first two years, I lived in an apartment with my wife, Anne. In 1965, I completed my Bachelors in Psychology and Human Relations, going on to obtain an M.B.A. degree in 1967. I went to work in Minneapolis, Minn., as a market research analyst, then returned to Lawrence in September of 1968 and opened Competition Sports Cars, Inc., which I still run.
Not being a politician, my experience with city government has tended to be quite informal. As a student, as a businessman and, as always, a taxpayer, I have had to deal with the city, its administration, and its policies. I am seeking the office of City Commissioner because the results produced by those administrators responsible for setting and implementing policy have not always been in the public interest. Obviously, I feel that whatever strengths I possess and those experiences I have had, have prepared me to capably represent the student, the businessman and the taxpayer.
P. S. I'll be saying some very specific things in future issues, watch for them.
