THURSDAY, MARCH 13, 2003 NEWS THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 5A Chalmers CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A "People have talked about the effectiveness of doing nothing, of sitting in a closed room and doing nothing," she said. "That in my opinion was the biggest problem." When Taylor was sitting outside the closed room, the fellow February Sisters took over the old East Asian Studies building to demand a day care center. Their overnight sit-in proved successful even though Chalmers and the senate executive committee turned off the building's water and electricity during the Febru- arv cold, Chalmers said. Marilyn Stokstad, February Sister and distinguished professor, isn't a Chalmers fan. But she said Chalmers did a great job in calming students during the Vietnam protests. As far as women were concerned, he was a very bad chancellor, she said. Capt. Joe Marzluff was in charge of the ROTC program during the Chalmers years. He was also at the presentation. "I'm one of the few people who think Larry Chalmers was the right person at the right time to be here in Lawrence in charge of the University of Kansas," he said. "He would sit there, hold hands, talk about things for hours on end, and by that time the crisis was over," he said. Tommy Bobo, Fine Arts senator, attended the presentation and sponsored the recommendation at Senate. Marzluff said Chalmers' inde- cisiveness regarding the Vietnam War protests was good because more people would have been killed if the University had a stronger, more decisive leader. "Any comment that you would make about him — about his best of times and his worst of times — are due to his indecisiveness." Bobo said. When at the University of Florida, Chalmers appointed the first female assistant dean of faculty. He said he did this not because she was a woman but because she was qualified. "The criticism that I was not as proactive as I could have been is probably a valid observation," Chalmers said. Yellow CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A In regards to the February Sisters demands, Chalmers said he probably would have gotten around to them. "I was only here for three years," he said jokingly. A turbulent three they were. The members of Y.E.L.L.O.W. addressed questions and concerns about the bike program at the meeting, which caused at least two senators, David Mitchell, graduate student senator, and Adam Obley, holdover senator, to change their votes in favor of program. Kit Brauer, holdover senator, is still opposed to the program. Edited by Julie Jantzer "The KU student body has never shown a commitment to cycling because of the topography of the campus," Brauer said. In other news: Previously, once a senator had deferred speaking privileges to a nonsenator, senate Student Senate passed a bill that would allow students who are not in Senate to be able to speak without opposition. members could object to the student speaking. But now the Senate will not have that option. Scott McKenzie, CLAS senator, said this would decrease the barriers for student voices to be heard. "I hope that this is part of greater series of changes to Student Senate that will increase the student involvement in the body that represents the students," he said. Student Senate passed a resolution to support the immediate construction of a new Multicultural Resource Center. Student Senate overruled a veto by Student Body President Jonathan Ng.Ng wanted to veto a resolution to wish Mike Appleby well. Appleby was the transportation coordinator for the last two years who was deployed in January.
