Pharmacy school continues two-year search for dean
By David Stewart
kansan staff writer
Entering its second academic year without a permanent dean, the KU School of Pharmacy has finished mailing 500 letters in its search for qualified candidates.
Valentino Stella, professor of pharmaceutical chemistry and head of the dean search committee, said the school sent out the last of the letters yesterday. The committee targeted colleagues and current deans in the 75 pharmacy schools around the country as potential applicants, Stella said.
The committee had two top finalists for the dean's position in April, but both chose to decline the position for personal reasons, Stella said.
... the bad news was we weren't able in the end to attract those two candidates, "Stella said. "The good news is that we didn't appoint the wrong dean. Let's not just appoint someone to appoint someone."
Gary Grunewald, professor of medicinal chemistry and the current intern dean for the School of Pharmacy, replaced Ronald Borchardt;
cear of pharmaceutical chemistry, after Borchardt stepped down in the spring after a year as interm dean.
"We would like to start serious evaluations of candidates in mid-October." Stella said. "We hope to reach a decision on who we can interview fairly quickly, with maybe a final candidate by the end of this calendar year. Whether that's realistic or not, I don't know."
Jeremy Matchett, associate dean of the School of Pharmacy, described the search for a new dean as a long and laborious process. He said 12 other universities were looking for a permanent dean for their pharmacy schools.
Among the other schools that are also searching for a new dean of their pharmacy school are the University of Minnesota, the University of Utah and the University of California in San Francisco, Stella said.
The dean of pharmacy's responsibilities have moved from strictly academic and administrative guidance to a less academic, more fund-raising and budget-related role, Stella said.
"I think the dean's position is a very
stressful job, "Stella said." With harder economic times, it's not as attractive. The new dean will have hard budget decisions to make."
With its national recognition and its high enrollment, the KU School of Pharmacy should be able to attract a large number of students. Ed Wheeler executive vice chancellor
Some of the characteristics that make a good dean include being a good manager and keeping the faculty responsive to changes in the field of study. Meyen said.
The committee has an additional incentive this year to find a permanent dean because of the school's move for all undergraduates to earn a 6-year doctor of pharmacy degree instead of the required 5-year bachelor of science of pharmacy, Stella said.
"The new dean will have to get the new curriculum in place to see if there are any changes needed in classes or funding," Stella said. "You can't ask the interm dean to take responsibility for these decisions. That would hamstring the newly appointed dean."
Flooding hurts Johnny's business
By Traci Carl
Kansan staff writer
"Business is bad, and the building is sinking.
Things have looked better for Doug Hassig and Rick Renroff, co-owners of Johnny's Tavern, 401 North Second St.
"The whole thing's just killed us," Hassig said. "This is the worst summer we've ever had."
Since a storm and sewer pipe under North Second Street collapsed and caused a large hole in the street in front of Johnny's this summer, the bar has lost customers, and the south wall of the building has sunk.
Renko said the bar had not been attracting the large crowds of college students it used to attract. Free buses that Johnny's hired at the start of school have not helped business either. Renko said. The buses picked up and delivered students safely to
and from campus to the tavern, he said, but they were discontinued last weekend because students were not interested in riding them.
"The most we ever had ride a bus was 10," he said. "Sometimes, they were empty."
The buses would stop at various points around campus and at sorority and fraternity houses.
Renko said he sent out letters to fraternities and sororites asking for suggestions on how to make the buses more popular or if they were even a feasible idea.
But Brett Atlas, president of Zeta Beta Tau and Glenview, Ill., sophomore, said he thought the buses were a good idea.
"I would definitely use it," he said.
"It's a lot easier than trying to get a ride home."
Johnny's should have waited longer for the buses to catch on. Atlas said. Rush and other beginning-of-the-year
activities probably kept many students away.
A lack of customers is not the only problem Johnny's faces.
The building, which is about 100 years old, was built on sandy ground, Hassig said. Extra ground water from the broken storm and sewer pipe probably was causing the building to settle, he said.
Three electric pumps had been pumping water out of the building's basement until last week, Hassig said.
The only visible damage is a stuck delivery door and cracks in the wall, which will be repaired when the insurance money arrives, he said.
Damage done to business is not repaired as easily.
The hole brought construction and a detour that complicated traffic to Johnny's, Renko said.
"People think they can't get here," he said. "They think we're closed."
Juice bar lacks permit, closes temporarily

"Juicers, a club at 913 N. Second St. that features nude dancing and does not sell alcoholic beverages, voluntarily closed Wednesday night after police issued the owner's citation for not displaying a valid adult-entertainment license. Lawrence police reported
*Pat McAllister, the owner, bought the bar from Jeff Wallace on Friday, police said.*
An ordinance for sexually oriented entertainment businesses was passed in August by the City Commission, and Wallace had 30 days to comply with new regulations, said Rod Bremmy, assistant city manager. Wednesday was Wallace's deadline to meet the regulations.
"The new owner must now comply with the regulations," Bremmy said.
The fine for operating without a license is up to $500 and six months in jail. Bremby said.
McAllister said he was applying for a license through his attorney and would be opening the club as soon as he made changes in his stage and sign to meet city requirements. According to the ordinance, nudity is prohibited unless the performer is on a stage that is a certain height and distance from the patrons, and the patrons can not interact or touch the performers, said Jo Andersen, city.
commissioner.
"We stopped short of prohibiting nudity because we thought the constitutionality would be challenged," Andersen said. "We didn't think it would fly."
McAllister said the citation was a misunderstanding about the amount of time he had to apply for a license.
The ordinance prohibits the club from operating within 1,000 feet of a business that sells liquor, he said. Wehner Retail Liquor, 923 N. Second St., is across the street from the club.
But Brentley said there were other requirements McAllister needed to meet.
McAllister said he was not aware of that requirement. Bremby said he could not say whether McAllister's license would be approved, but the club did not meet requirements when it was originally operating.
McAllister said the city responder wasn't suspicious. They don't deny the existence of businesses, and that's their purpose. McAllester said.
"I know that we are going to evaluate his license in view of the new ordinance," he said.

Dad went ballistic over the phone bill
his daughter, Jennifer, ran up talking to that low-life, Snake, in Chicago
Before he hung himself with the phone cord, he cut off Jen's calling card — for life.
Now Jennifer's really bummed. How can she call Snake to let him know the heat's off and they can run off together?
Lucky for jen, she can go to the Time Machine and buy a "rasch" calling card for $4.50
Lucky for jen, she can go to The Times Machine and buy a "cash" calling card for $4.50 for 10 minutes of interstate long-distance. Or should she get a 30-minute card for $9.90? Better make that a 75-minute card for $24.75. After all, it's more than 50% cheaper than using a payphone. And it's private.
It's Time to TALK! "cash" calling cards. It's about time.
It's about time.
