Lovellete? Pankratz? Who Are Those Guys?
Kansan Staff Reporters
You can't always believe everything you hear, and that may be especially true on the University of Kansas campus. Depending on your preferences, you pression that Del Shanker, KU's executive vice chancellor, is an astronaut, or that Clyde Lovelletti, KU's All-American center for space exploration, builds Buildings and Grounds and never mind what he might have been in the past.
These and other surprising bits of information cropped up yesterday when four Kansan reporters asked at random a total of 100 KU students to identify Shankel, Lovellett, Ed Rolfs, John Beisner and Howard Pankratz.
Here are the results of their survey:
Fourteen of the students, including five foreign students, hadn't heard of any of the five.
Though elections for student body president will be held next Wednesday and Thursday, a sizeable number of those surveyed were still not sure who the candidates were, much less what they were running for.
OF THE 64 students who had at least heard of Ed Rolfs, Junction City junior, only 37 knew that he is campaigning for student body president, and 16 knew only that he was in the running for some office. One student said she'd seen the Rolfs posters as they were being printed with "some kind of encounter groups or meetings—something like that."
Forty-nine of the students said they had heard of Beinser, Salina junior, but only 28 knew that he is a candidate for student body president. "He's a nice person," that he was running for some kind of office.
The candidates' campaign posters seemed to be one of the primary sources of evidence for their claims.
Bill to Maintain Gap in State, Non-State Fees
TOPEKA (AP) -A bill that would maintain different fees at state universities and colleges for Kansas students and out-of-state students introduced in the Kansas House yesterday.
The bill would make tuition the same for all students, but would allow the Board of Regents to remit part of the fees paid by them who graduate from Kansas high schools.
Kansas now charges higher fees to out-of- state students than it does to in-state students.
But with the lowering of the age of majority from 21 to 18, it became easy for students who had graduated from high schools in other states to establish residence in Kansas while attending a state university or college, thereby qualifying for the lower fees.
"I didn't pay much attention to the posters," one student volunteered. "I don't like it, but I like the way it looks."
Another student said, "I'll vote if I run into a voting station, but I won't go out of my car."
The name Del Shankel got a response from 45 of the students, but the responses ranged from him to them. He turned in with the nation's space program and the sports world. Only 17 knew that Shankel is KU's executive vice chancellor, a post to which he was appointed.
Only 26 of the students had heard of Lovellette, but 21 of them correctly identified him as a basketball player. There was some confusion about the years he played, but four of the 21 knew that he had played for KU "back in the 80s," and one student seceded fully prepared to relate every detail to his career, much to the surprise of the reporter.
AND AS FOR Howard Pankratz? Well, nobody could really identify him, and those who tried didn't even come close. And perhius that is understandable.
Rumor has it that he is a KU graduate now working for a newspaper in Colorado. But there is another rumor that the name is a standard pseudonym in the newspaper that paps up now and again as a byname, thus no one wants to be identified with.
"Howard Pankratz is the mayor of Muckadilla, Australia," says John Bohun. "I have never heard of this."
He is "a maybe fictional, maybe real newspaper character," says Sammie Messick, a secretary in the School of journalism.
