Residents of organized housing are now permitted to have beer in their rooms. Action on the beer issue in residence halls began in November, and in December we will gain approval of our beer policy
The beer policy was initiated by the halls' senates and coordinated by the Association of University Residence Halls John Hill Hopkins director of the University Housing Office, said last week.
The last hall to be granted approval was Lewis Hall, whose policy was approved in early February.
BEER IS PERMITTED at hall social functions, Hill said, but it must be bought outside the

Caligard said the chancellor had indicated he preferred research and chancellor of academics, affairs, and chancellor of research and graduate studies be faculty members of the University of Kansas.
He said the committee held an "in-depth meeting" and reviewed recommendations from students and faculty.

The committee will meet again Thursday night
residence halls, because beer vaping is prohibited on campus. Hall residents police themselves, he said.
"The requirement is that the student governments create a policy which will deal with the control of the situation." Hill said. It has a question of the office controlling policy."
Proposals for beer in the halls are reviewed by AURH before being forwarded to Vice President of Student Affairs, William M. Bafour, Hill said.
Michael Sundermeyer, president of AURH, said guidelines for drafting beer policies were set down by the AURH.
HE SAID each policy had to include: (1) where the beer could be consumed; (2) how the policy would be enforced; (3) how the proposal could be changed, and recognize University policy and state law regarding the consumption of alcoholic beverages.
some campus fraternities and some similar proposals concerning the fraternity through the Inter-fraternity Council (IPC), said James R. King of the University.
He said that those fraternities with approved proposals were less likely to take alcoholic beverages because they were situated in private rather than in a public setting.
"The blanket policy from the

An explanation with the petition says, "Child care is a service that should be provided to children whose parents employees, faculty and student mothers, and faculty wives" because this presupposes that it is some how the exclusive responsibility to raise and care for the children."

Francie said Sunday that the petition was being circulated to "show solidarity between actions for the day care center."
The petition calls for child care facilities to be included in the University budget for the fiscal year starting July 1, 1972. There is a table for obtaining signatures of the Sisters and members of the Sisters will also be on campus circulating petitions, Francke said.

Four white male educators at KKU teach classes about blacks and blacks who agree their ideas are irrelevant in understanding of minorities.

FOX SAD said in the 1980's he thought that a white male was unable to teach minority studies, but his attitude had changed. He said the problem was not that instructors were not well informed that they were not well informed.

Fox said the only problem was that he couldn't control the confidence or trust of his women to carry out their duties, and him not to understand, he said.
"THEIR IS a range of experiences a man cannot go through, but how does this self-explain? He specifically explains history?" Fox said. He makes no pretext of woman entirely, he said.
Wilmer Linkuel, professor of speech and drama, expressed similar sentiments about his mother's Rhetoric of Women's Rights."
"I don't teach feminism, I teach about feminism," said Linkugal. "The word feminism implies a rhetorical struggle. The course attempts to analyze themes, ideas, and arguments behind women's speakers and their strategies in presenting them." said Linkugal.
Linkaug said he qualified to become a doctor of rhetorical training and he wrote his doctoral thesis on Anna Howard Shaw, an early feminist
LINEKUGAL SAID he couldn't tell someone how it felt to be a woman and didn't, but the course extended personal perspectives.
Linkugal said he insisted on viewing the subject in historical perspective, and he has taught it for three semesters.
