Profs profit from classroom switch
By CORAL BEACH Staff Reporter
Six KU professors traded their places behind the lectern for regular classroom seats this year when they visited a university visiting proffessionally program.
Under the program, professors in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences spend a year in a department or professional school other than their own, Dan Sedgeol, associate dean of the College said.
"The professors will be sitting in on teams, team-teaching and working on research projects," Sedelow said. "You really learn a lot about a subject when you have to teach it. Hopefully the professors teach it better." He backed up their departments and teach more effectively because of it.
Sedelow said that the goal of the
program was to take advantage of the major "on-site" resources within the University. She said these resources could be used to develop new interdisciplinary courses and to increase the diversity within existing disciplines.
T. P. Srinivasan, professor of math, who has visited the linguistics department this year, said that the work he has been very rewarding and satisfying.
"Certainly the different perspective I gain from this experience will give a new depth to my teaching," Srinivasan said. "It has been a challenge to learn something completely new."
Levine, professor of English, who visited the School of Music and both Richard Cole, professor of philosophy, and David Willer, professor of sociology, who visited the department of history.
The other five professors who participated in the program this year, and the departments they visited were: Fred / VanLevck, professor of math, who visited the School of Business; Grant Goodman, professor of history, who visited the department of anthropology; Stuart
Sedelow said that the visiting professors were replaced with assistant instructors while they were in the other departments and schools. The visiting professors received their regular salaries while they participated in the program, even though they did not have their regular departmental responsibilities during the year.
An Exxon -Foundation grant provided one month's summer salary for each of this year's and next year's visiting professors. Sedgewell said that she was going to teach the program but that the program could continue after next year, but that nothing was certain yet.

Contraceptive may supply new choice
A small plug that blocks the fallopian tube openings may become a viable alternative to available contraceptives for women.
Testing of the new contraceptive has started recently at several European hospitals.
The plug is made of material similar to that used in contact lenses. It is inserted by a physician via the vagina and falls into the fallopian tube openings.
The plug, about 1.4 millimeters in diameter, is stiff when inserted but absorbs fluid and expands once inside and expands according to the researcher, Jan Brunnden.
According to the Swedish researcher who developed the method, the plug stops the egg's journey from the fallopian tube, preventing conception.
Brundin said that tests of an earlier version of the plug showed that it had
effectively prevented pregnancy and was easy to remove. So far, six women have had normal pregnancies after having the plug removed.
Gilbert Greenwald, reproductive biology research professor at the University of Kansas Medical Center, said that Brundin's results were encouraging but that previous attempts to plug the fallopian tubes had not been successful. Greenwald said he had not heard about Brundin's new plug.
To have a community, we need to work together.
A well-integrated community has many strong elements which support each other—residential neighborhoods, businesses, academic institutions, public facilities, industries. City government should draw not only on outside expertise, but also on the experience of the people who live and work here. Good decisions take into account a wide range of opinions.

"Most of them have not worked
because the anatomy the area is not
that uniform from woman to woman",
he said. "The problem has been that
they have not been able to completely plug the gap."

According to Brundin, the plug has not yet showed any side effects. However, Greenwald said that other companies also had looked promising at first.
Greenwild also said inflammation and scar tissue formation had caused complications with similar plugs in the past. Scar tissue could close the tubes and permanently prevent a woman from becoming pregnant.
"When they have tried them out extensively, the success rate has not really been all that great," he said.
