Art, design students to show recent work
Approximately 20 art and design students will show their most recent work from this Sunday until Feb. 21 at the Art and Design Building's third floor gallery. Several areas of study in art and design will be represented including painting and drawing, sculpture, new genre, textiles, ceramics, printmaking and metal.
Sara Rochford, coordinator of basic studies in art and design, said the exhibit was a useful outlet for the graduate students and KU community.
Rochford said it was a great venue for other students and faculty to see what the graduate students were
doing and also give graduate students an opportunity to display their work.

The exhibit will be from 1 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Sunday; 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Wednesday; 8:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Thursday; and 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Friday. Admission is free and open to the public.

University employee arrested, charged
A 26-year-old KU employee, Jonathan S. James, was arrested and booked into Douglas County Jail yesterday, shortly after midnight. Lt. David Cobb of the Lawrence Police Department said an officer pulled a car over in the 1500 block of West Sixth Street for speeding and asked the suspect to step out of the car because he appeared to be under the influence of alcohol. Cobb said the suspect failed a breath test and was arrested. He said that while handcuffed, the suspect head butted the officer in the face. The suspect was charged yesterday with battery against a law enforcement officer, driving under the influence and beating. A hearing will be held Monday at 1:30 p.m.
