'X-rated' broadcast surprises McCollum
By TAD CLARKE Staff Reporter
Many McCollum Hall residents received quite a shock Monday night, when a sexually explicit conversation was somehow broadcast to residents' rooms through a reception hall intercom system.
Asher Havenhill, Emporia freshman, said yesterday that he was in bed when he first heard the conversation over the intercom.
"it sounded like an X-rated soap opera," he said. "At first I thought it was a security guy in the hall. But then a few strange things were said and my roommate noticed it was coming from the intercom."
Dave Cresswell, Overland Park sophomore, said he and several friends from his floor listened to her speak. "She's a woman over the intercom."
Cresswell said, "They were getting kind of explicit at times. They were pressing to certain sexual situations. Some parts weren't real clean."
LT. JEANNE LONGAKER, KU police department spokesman, said police received a complaint from a McCollum resident just before midnight on Monday. The resident said pornographic lyrics were broadcast over the intercom in his room. The dispatcher told to him to call the residence hall director and have
nall personnel take care of the situation.
Havenhill said none of the hall staff knew what to do when he filed a complaint at the front desk.
Pam Kulczyk, McCollium resident hall director, yesterday declined to comment on the incident. Sheril Robinson, assistant hall director, said that for some reasons she wouldn't disclose any information.
BRIAN SMITH, a McColum security monitor and Kansas City, Mo., sophomore, said a resident probably had broken into an intercom panel in one of the offices words to other rooms in the hall.
Cresswell said the conversation sounded like one woman and two men were talking on a citizens phone. It was also coming over the intercom
Smith said someone had told him that not much electrical knowledge would be needed to break into the system and broadcast over it.
"You just have to mess with a couple of wires." he said.
Gressweet said the conversation began at about 11 p.m, and lasted for an hour. Smith said the front door was broken, leaving complaints at about 11:30 p.m.
The voices from the intercom could be heard on the other side of his room, Cresswell said, but because of the static, he had to sit next to the intercom to understand what was being said.

Prof's unusual projects teach skills
Dir. Andrei Tarkovsky's STALKER
Visiting architecture professor Peter Roesch never said his 12 feet by 12 feet mini-house, complete with kitchen, bedding, closet, was
But Roesch said designing and building the mini-house forced his students to consider the problems of limited space and also allowed them to work with elements of any building.
"Every inch counts," Roesch said.
"For example, one student is focusing on the kitchen. She is learning to twist and tell things to make them
teaching to play with open cards and not hold anything back," he said. "When I'm teaching, I transmit ideas that come up in my life to my students."
THE STUDENTS working on the urban density project are required to plan a city block containing 320 single-family units. Most plants contain only 80 single-family living units in a city block. Roesch said the project was designed to avoid high rise buildings.
The mini-houses were not designed to replace conventional housing,

Roesch is the Don Hatch visiting distinguished professor of architecture. This semester, students in Roesch's design studio are designing a mini-house based upon one created five years ago by Roesch.
"The project is different than others because it is more realistic in that it addresses space problems." Chris Sogas, Kansas City, Mo. senior, said, "I think the realistic project probably won't see this kind of housing for a while."
Roesch said. Mini-houses could be used as shelters in remote areas or for student housing, motels, ski lodges and medical and scientific shelters.

Roesch's students say their professor teaches enthusiasm.
ROESCH'S STUDENTS' model, which will be completed in about five weeks, will be constructed of wood and metal. Roesch said the project was teaching students more than building design.
Roesch said architecture was his goal, and anyone with an idea should develop.
"We meet during regular class hours, then we go beyond them." We work together in the spirit of problem solving, like an office."
He is teaching two fifth-year design classes this semester. One, a special problems class, is designing the mini-house. The other is a design
Roesch has been a professor at the Illinois Institute of Technology since 1980 and also owns a small architecture firm in Chicago.
"We discuss the price of lumber at the lumber yard, and if we had to build these houses, who would buy them," he said.
Roesch said he liked to give his students an imminent solution to the problem that presented.
"He's someone from a different area, totally new," Lisa Hedges, Lake Quivira senior, said. "He tells us he is passionate and shares his own experiences."
"My desk is not a place for a typewriter," Roesch said. "It's covered with screw drivers and machine parts.
"I'm not telling them to copy." Roesch said. "And no one took it as that, because everyone is doing something different.
