KU Continuing Education Aids Penitentiary Inmates

Sponsored by the University of Kansas Division of Continuing Education, the prison program offered at the penitentiary since 1953. The program started modestly, offering only one course in psychology in the beginning, but it expanded to include the 12 courses offered this semester, according to the director of the program, Jack Crail, extension representative of the classes in continuing education.
Classes are ending this week and next for one of the more unusual educational programs offered by the University of Kansas, the prison program at the North Federal Penitentiary.
MORE CLASSES are offered at Leavenworth penitentiary than at any other federal penitentiary, Crail said. The courses require the same amount of time and effort in teaching of教學 as is offered at KU.
Crail said the total enrollment for the school year was 485. Embryology this semester was 254. Crual said she will show the actual amount of people enrolled since some of the inmates were taking more than usual.
The courses offered this
year are biology, sociology and

computer science. Craal said that

FIVE TEACHERS involved in the program were contacted.
The teachers agreed that there was no problem of security when teaching. The instructors were
required to go through the same security procedures for entering the penitentiary as any other visitor. Entrance involved a gate and door before gaining access to the main part of the building.
There are no security personnel in the classroom with the teacher during the class, the student during the class, locked to each classroom during the classes. Guards patrol the classrooms, and count the inmates in the room.
"But bit by bit, you get used to it and you can get it to you can forget you are in a prison," Gefryou said.
Robert Buchholz, Lawrence graduate student, who teaches a course in accounting said that at first he was a little worried about the imputed taxes and the imputed him that he was no value as a hostage anyway.
JOHN L. GEEFFY, acting professor of anthropology, said he was apprehensive at first that the victim would be in a prison. He said he had never been in a prison before, and he found the idea imposing and alarming.
Following the strikes by the inmates this year which resulted in the transfer of some of the inmates from the removal of others to the hole (a special solution for detention in solitary confinement), Gefroy said he felt real tension on the inmates and custodial staff.
He said, "I got the feeling that it was all unreal. You realize that the main business of the company is custody and not education."
THERE WAS a consensus among the teachers that the
prison inmates were more motivated and committed as students than were students at KU.
Jerry Weakley, assistant instructor in speech and drama, said, "They are in class to better understand the material for working a degree. They were on the whole very active in class. They seem to question to a greater extent information than information in from other courses."
"Their commitment stands out. They have more interest in the world than in taking my course (anthropology 2) and they are more aware of the cultural nature of problems. They know more courses," Gelfoy said.
Gefroy told he was pleasantly surprised by the interest and ability of the inmates to handle the courses.
"NOME OF the inmates are taken to school, which they are paying for themselves. All the classwork has to be done in the evening in order to do homework."
For Francis Awogu, acting professor of political science who teaches a course in African history to a predominately black class, response had two rather different black硬骨 braces. He said the students were stressed in the developments of African hardhats. Also, world issues became more important than the black problem in the United States,
The range of abilities and talents among the prisoners was one of the unique problems faced by the instructors.
Computation Center Faces Fund Crisis

Bassett said the Computation Center was "virtually out of money" and the last two months of fiscal year would be light ongee.

He said there was a planning problem as well as a shortage of funds. He compared the center's greater needs with those of the library. But, he said, the center's "growing pains" were greatest than the library's since the administration as well as the students made demands on it.
WEAKLEY SAID that in his course, Speak up the age range for which he teaches educational background covered many different subjects. Weakley said students may have only a high school diploma or the equivalence they or they may have received from college.
Extensive discussion of the financial status of the University of Kansas Computation Center took place Monday at a meeting of the Denn's Council, according to a paper in the dean of the School of Journalism.
BASSETT  SAID that projections for next year's enrolment estimated a 13 per cent increase in freshman enrollment while Kansas State University's freshman enrolment was to decrease by five per cent. The Computation Department should handle such an increase he said.
the teachers all said they have treated with respect and openness, but not in a way that not been a problem to establish rapport with the inmates in prison.
GEFFROY SAID the inmates are anxious to read, but the library at the prison was too small. He said it could only be those with more than three hours credit, this was a problem.
Buchloch said that in his accounting class many of the students taught himself one man had a degree in engineering, but that no real engineer was present.

The staff members of radio station, KUOK, broadening its reach to new audiences through Audiotourism, work under a disadvantage not familiar to them.
KUOK Seeks Better Facilities
To reach a bathroom, they must go through a maze of locked doors and stairs, followed by hallways to the backstage area of the auditorium; because the radio room is too small, they have to walk.
These inconvenient and time-consuming treks are sympathetic to the students at many of university of Kansas departments and universities.
"The University has been continually aware of our needs," he said "space on this campus has been brought to a standstill because of the delays on Wescoe and lack of funding from the state."
KUOK, operated by students in the university's film program, has requested new space about 1800, according to Brooke A. Linton, director of KUOK.
Linton said that although the physical layout of the station was fairly good in terms of facilities, it lacked health facilities were inadequate.
"THE PROBLEM essentially is that while space is not great at KUOK, it's adequate enough. There are in terrible need." Linton said.
Staff members at the station have drawn up a proposal to the Committee on Radio-Television Film, which concerns, in part, improvements in these facilities. The committee's more fire extinguishers, KUOK now has one extinguisher, situated by the station's only exit.
KUOK is wedged between the entomology research lab and the office furniture in Hoch's office furniture in Hoch's basement. we staff hopes the team will be able to where they will not be surrounded by other operations,
THE CONSTRUCTION of Wesco Hall has added to the parking problem, he said, because the road that runs in back of Hoch is now partially backed by trucks and equipment.
"The ideal place," he said, "would be somewhere that we would know of and use us and someone below us—somewhere that we could be our neighbors."
Mick Dolan, Shawnee Mission junior and current general manager, said parking was a problem for those who worked at KUDU.
Rick Kuper, Overland Park junior and next year's general manager, said the staff had been injured when a ventilation system's inadecency when a dead animal was trapped in one of the vents. The resulting odor, he said, became overpowering, the animal could be removed.
"There is no place for us to park without getting a ticket," he said. "It's especially bad for people who work during the day."
David Dary, assistant professor of radio-television film and next year's faculty adviser to KUUG, said he thought the ideal
Another request is for air conditioning. According to Linton, the ventilation system does not provide good air flow through the station. Consequently, it is often hot and the air is stale.

DARY SAIY that much of the equipment used at KUOR was old and worn. He said he hoped to provide a greater economic base for the station so that the station could afford better facilities and equipment.
According to Linton, the principle expenditure for the station is rental of telephone lines. OOK's ignis to the residence are paid.

3 Students Chosen For Study Abroad
Station KANU is currently using Broadcasting Hall. It shares the building with weavers from the School of Fine Arts.
DOLAN SAID the station earned about $1,000 a semester from advertising. He said this allowed for very little profit.
"Perhaps somebody when the weavers move out, there will be someone who doesn't know it. 'It's not possible now, though because the weavers were there'."

Dary said that if KUOK and KANU were both in Broadcasting Hall, they could be of benefit to each other.
