Chancellor Raymond Nichols said Thursday that he was opposed to any enrollment restrictions. He said that the open admissions policy had worked for KU in providing qualified and motivated students.
The Council to Presidents has studied the problem of restrictions said John Visser, president of Kansas State Teachers College at Emporia. Several methods have been discussed, but each will require putting together a set of documents, which would be undesirable, he said.
THE REGENTS implemented recommendations dealing with graduate students in education, culture and journalism from the report on higher education. These recommendations included discontinuing 20 programs at KU and putting 24 others on campus.
The report said that a masters program must produce at least two degrees a year and a doctoral program one degree a year to be continued.
Masters programs which produce two to five degrees a year and doctoral programs which produce one or two degrees a year were put on probation.
Nichols said last December when the report was released that the loss of the recommended programs would not hurt KU many of them of whom were already inactive.
The approval of these recommendations by the board was a continuation of a process started in December. Then the Regents approved a plan to improve higher education in Kansas.
PROGRAMS WHICH the report recommended for discontinuance include: Ph.D. in petroleum engineering, M.A.T. in English, M.A.T. in math, M.A.T. in history, M.A.T. in mathematics, M.A.T. in social studies, M.A. in higher education, M.A. in research and measures,

Committee to Gather Views on Clinton Uses
by CAROLYN OLSON Kansan Staff Writer
A steering committee to gather opinions about proposed uses of Clinton Reservoir was formed Saturday at a meeting of Citizens Coalition for Clinton Lake.
Members of the steering committee are representatives from the League of Women Voters, the Douglas County Environmental Improvement Council, the Sierra Club, the Girl Scouts, the Lawrence Educational Association, Wheelport Motorcycle Club, the Audubon Society, the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, the Lawrence Board of Education, the KK Basic Water Association, Lawrence High School environmentalists and consultants from the Kansas Biological Survey and the Geological Survey.
Dan Palmquist, chairman of the coalition and a member of the Douglas County Environmental Improvement Council, said the steering committee would meet again at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Centron Corporation, 1621 West 9th to discuss finances and staffing. The corporation will distribute material about Clinton Reservoir and citizens' reactions to the reservoir.
the steering committee will submit majority and minority reports to the Corps of Engineers; the Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission; the city and government agencies; and legalists and Game Association, and legislators from this area." Palmuot said.
Palmquist said the debate concerning Clinton Reservoir concerner restricted
versus multiple recreational use of the reservoir.
"Many persons want motorboats, specifically those with high-speed motors for skiers, to be outlawed at Clinton Reservoir," Palmquist said. "Then there are others who want the lake to be specifically for skiers."
The convention was sponsored by the Association of University Residence Halls at Iowa State University.
"The steering committee of the citizen's coalition will have a draft of the differing views of the group by March 1," Palmquintz wrote, and drafting plans and maps done by then."
Thomas said that KU's Hashinger Hall was an experimental hall that was geared to meet the needs of fine arts students. The delegates toured Hashinger and then listened to other schools give presentations on their experimental programs.
The citizen's coalition was formed last Tuesday in a meeting attended by about 60 persons. The meeting was sponsored by the League of Women Voters, and it was similar to other meetings sponsored by the Chamber Commerce and the Corps of Engineers.
Most of the schools were from Kansas, but several schools from Missouri, Texas, Arkansas and Oklahoma were represented, including New York University, Ethiopia, Ethiopian, senior and president of AUHR.
On Saturday, John Blackburn, vice chancellor for student affairs at the University of Denver, spoke about the experimental system of residence halls at his university. There, each residence hall is specialized for the residents who live there.
