By CANDY HERBERT
Kansas Staff Writer
Whether or not to come to the University of Kansas was the question the "Spring at KU" program, sponsored by the KU Athletics Department, helped answer for 18 undecided high school students last Saturday.
The orientation program began at 9:30 a.m. with a general session in the Kansas Union. The samil, informal English Room, where the session was held, set up an office warm, friendly and low-key.

Treacy said a person could not select a man for president if he didn't know what the job would require.
"I started thinking about politics," Treacy said, "and asked myself the question 'What does the president do?'"
He said the first panel would discuss "What does the guy do on a day to day basis?"
The second panel discussion will deal with the press and its possible effect on the elections.
"A lot of people have questions about the press coverage," she said. "What is a partisan or objective what is a partisan or objective. Is the guy writing the article saying something or is he saying nothing who said it is saying something?"

MCLAUGHLIN SAID the program would consist of a tour of the University and a question about God half-way through the tour.
Present to answer questions were Dave Parker, assistant to the dean of men, and Judy Haddad, assistant to the dean of Governor and president director of Government Sarards. Pearson residence hall.
John Myers, director of school relations, whose office worked with McLaughlin to initiate a spiring at-home learning program for personal atmosphere.
Myers said, "This is designed, as an informational Weop. How can we do that? The advantage of the freshmen students to ask any questions you may have."
Myers said the tour was really just an "exposure" to the University.
"The tour will show you a lot of the university but none of it completely. We hope your curiosity will prompt you to come back for a deeper look, once you've acquainted you with KU," he said.
THE WHRILDIN TOUR of the campus began with a walk to the Museum of Natural History in Philadelphia and then to the Museum. McLaughlin pointed out the uses of each museum, and included in their collections.

tour headed towards Fraser Hall to look at an average KU classroom.
AT SUMMERFIELD HALL the groups came together for a question and answer period with McLaughlin Parker and Haddad.
Here again, the informality of the program was apparent. Topics ranging from the College Within a College system to extra-curricular activities were discussed, and students were encouraged to bring up questions and concerning any aspect of KU.
The program ended with a box lunch in the Meadowlark Room of the Union.
After a quick look at Robinson Gymnasium, a drive through the Daisy Hill area and the west campus, the tour stopped at Oliver Hall. Here the students visit an average residence hall.
Kim Boyer, Olathe High School senior, said the program had personalized KU for her.
"The best part was talking to the freshmen guides and learning about their personal experiences and what they had discouraged about the bigness of KU and made the school seem so much more friendly and per-
ANGIE GEHBARDT, another Olathe学生, agreed that the program's strength came from a personal enthusiasm for KU.
Gebhardt said, "I had been to KU before, but this tour taught me a lot about the campus that I
hadn't learned. It gave the school such a friendly atmosphere."
MelLaughlin said he originally became involved in the program as part of his campaign platform for freshman class president.
"I felt that something needed to be done after looking at the decreasing freshman enrollment at KU," McLaughlin said.
McLAUGHLIN SAID letters and registration blanks for the program were sent to high school students who had expressed interest in KU. He said that he would send his letters to high school principals and guidance counselors.
"Next year we hope to have these tours on a year-round basis, with all interested high school students attending from coming on the same weekend."
"This year's program was just
late," he said. "We had about 16 students
last weekend, April 8, and we
