Pulitzer prize winner to reschedule visit
Guests expecting to see Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Roger Wilkins Sunday night were met with a surprise: Richard Norton Smith, director of the Dole Institute of Politics spoke instead.
Wilkins was a no-show for a speech scheduled for 7:30 p.m. last Sunday after a snowstorm along the eastern seaboard piled more than a foot of snow on the Washington, D.C., area where Wilkins lives. Norton spoke about Abraham Lincoln in Wilkins' absence.
Though a date has not been set, Wilkins will try to reschedule his speech for sometime in the spring, officials from the Dole Institute said.
Wilkins won the Pulitzer Prize as a member of The Washington Post for its coverage of the Watergate scandal. Wilkins is now retired from journalism and is a professor at George Mason University in Fairfax, Va.

Final election code available for students
The final draft of the election code is available at the Dean of Students office in 133 Strong Hall. The Elections Commission made finishing touches to the code after taking complaints at a public hearing Sunday at the Kansan Union. The code will also be online by the end of the week at http://www.ku.edu/-election.
"A good code will prevent a lot of violations, so we will be able to ensure the most fair election possible," said election commission chair Diana Calkins.
Election complaints can be turned in to 133 Strong Hall no later than two days after discovering violations.

Boy undergoes surgery after mauling by family dog
WICHITA — A 4-year-old boy underwent surgery last Sunday after being mauled by the family's Rottweiler in his back yard.
The boy was critically injured by bites to his face and neck before his parents could pull the dog off, police said. One of his two sisters told police he also was bitten by the family's black Labrador.
"I heard crying and moaning and then saw the dog biting him," said 14-year-old neighbor Vickie Phothilath, who alerted the boy's parents of the attack.
Police said the attack occurred at about 4:30 p.m. when the boy was playing in the back yard.
Phothilath said her 9-year-old sister, Mickie, was the first to hear the boy's cries for help. When the older sister saw what was happening, she ran to the front yard and told the boy's parents.
