Prior to the formal establishment of the University attorney's office, KU officials had asked the university administration to conduct the investigation and prosecution of cases stemming from campus vandalism during the school year.
Charles, Oldfather, recently appointed University attorney, was involved in the investigation, but jurisdiction in the cases was referred to the office of Mike Elwell, Douglas County attorney.
Students charged with minor violations on the campus usually have been prosecuted through the University Judiciary.
In the two weeks following the first round of the national minilist decided that "no reasonable distinction" could be made between the students and the candidates.
Freshmen Differ from Nat'l Norm
Developing a philosophy of life was the objective considered most essential to entering KU freshman, according to results from a questionnaire circulated by the American Council on Education.
Raising a family and becoming an authority in their chosen fields were listed as the second and most important life objectives.
The questionnaires were an aid by computers and summaries of students were distributed to the 425 participating colleges and universities.
The survey indicated that a higher than average number of KU freshmen acquired the library's materials regularly checked out by library books, read unrequired poetry and visited art galleries. They also scored above the national average in the consumption of vitamins.
The majority of freshmen indicated they were from middle class and upper class homes, went to public high schools where they graduated or worked as trades or better and were in the topperate of their graduating classes.
From high school students, the KU freshmen earned more state honors in music and speech than they did in art or sports parts in plays and held more top offices in student organizations than the national norms with which they were compared. But these schools gave fewer letters in varsity sports.
KU's freshmen scored twice the national norm in the number of students majoring in fine arts, and results showed above average grades in science sciences and pre-professional curriculums. More of them planned to be artists and doctors than the national norm but there were fewer engineers and more undergrads undecided about career plans.
Students wanted more voice in designing curriculums, thought that colleges were too lax about it. A large number of the Army should be voluntary.
Nearly a third of the entering freshmen were still interested in joining a fraternity or sorority more than the national average.
Sixty-seven per cent felt some concern about financing their educations, but most indicated he money would come from the university or national norm. The questionnaire showed that more parents of KU reshmesh have higher education, including college degrees; more businessmen and a few more doctors and lawyers than average.
Chancellor E Laurence Chilish student who involves in something largely non-student yields his right to have his case presented.
The total results of investigations conducted by the Kansas Bureau of Investigation University security personnel The Lawrence Police Department have turned over to Elwell, Dec. 23.
Oldfather said, "I don't see how we can reasonably separate the students and the non-students."
Oldfather indicated there would be no "cumulative punishment" for students involved. Once the students are prosecuted, all students will take no disciplinary action through its own judicial system

Vacancy charges were filed against five officers once KU joined the KU police by the KU security department during the semester break. The five were charged with non-publicification during early morning hours, according to Captain Bob Kuehnen.
5 Charged as Vagrants
Four of the five were nonstudents." Olson said. "The fifth did not claim to be when he was taught, but later proved to be a student.
Nonames were released.
Olsen said normal security checks for identification during early morning hours were in order, but he break because there was little reason for persons to be on campus. However, if persons who were stopped were students, and they did not stop being on campus, they were
allowed to continue whatever they were doing, he said.
When students returned to Lawrence the intensity of security the decreased, and resumed procedures were resumed, he said.
The five charged with
vagranty, which is not a misdeemer, have not yet had court hearings. Olson said the defendant was guilty of the penalty, if the five are found guilty formally, the guilty guilty rather than imprisonment, he said.
