Two years of investigation and hearings on the fate of Emil Tonkovich, KU professor of law, will come to an end after a five-member faculty review committee, which is presently deliberating in an undisclosed location, reaches a conclusion by July 30.
Rutherford Turnbull, professor of special education and head of the committee, said that a written opinion and recommendation would be submitted to Chancellor Gene Badie upon completion.
two years of investigation into the accusations against Emil Tonkovic may be coming to a close. A decision is expected in July.
In August 1991, Tammy McVey, a former student of Tonkovich, told University administrators that in Summer 1988 Tonkovich pressured her into performing oral sex after a

Tonkovich denied that any sex act occurred with McVey and insisted that her story was ever-changing.
On May 12 of this year, closing arguments in the case were offered by Rose Marino, associative general counsel, and by Tonkovich himself.
In her closing statement, Marino stressed the gravity of Tonkovich's alleged unethical behavior.
"This case is about one professor's exploitation of his position as a faculty member, his exploitation of students for his own private benefit." Marino said according to a transcript prepared by a local reporting service.
"This case is about one professor trying — or — procuring sex from female students in his class."
Tonkovich then thanked his supporters and defended his decision to fight the chancellor's complaint.
"I have dedicated my entire adult life to public service and to the principles of justice," Tonkovich said. "I have never done anything unethical

'Hawks come home to cheers
By Todd Puntney Kansan staff writer
Despite elimination from the College World Series, the Kansas baseball team came home Monday afternoon to an anxious crowd of 300 who performed the Rock Chalk chant and cheered "Go KU!" as the team stepped off the bus at Allen Field House.
"We really do appreciate that," said Kansas baseball coach Dave Bingham, who made school history by leading the team to its first appearance in the College World Series in Omaha. Neb.
"This means so much for you people to be here and meet the team and give them the congratulations that they so deserve," he said.
The Jayhawks lost both games in the double-elimination series, losing to Texas A&M 5-1 last Friday and to Long Beach State 6-1 on Sunday.
Bingham said he was proud of the team that obtained a 45-18 record and event into the Series as the underdog
"We were really trying hard to prove that we were more than just a Cinderella team that got there on a glass slipper," he said. "We wanted to win, we wanted to show that we were for real. But the thing that hurts us the most is that we feel we weren't able to put our best foot forward."
Jeff Strange, Arkansas City senior, who attended the homecoming, said it was the least he could do to show his support for the team.
"I wish I could have gone to Omaha to see them play, but since I didn't this was the best way to show my enthusiasm and appreciation," he said.
Mike Prosser, Golden, Colo., senior said the team deserved the fans' support.
"They're a great team and they made history. I'm glad people showed up to Wikimedia."
The team contributed to Kansas' becoming the first university in the nation to win a bowl game, be in the Final Four and play in the College World Series in the same year.
Senior catcher Jeff Niemeier said that he enjoyed the Series and the success of this year's team, but that the future held even more promise.
"One thing now is that the seniors who are leaving are going to become fans, too." Niemeyer said. "As fans we've got a lot to look forward to."
Bingham praised the seven seniors for their determination and effort and said they helped create a baseball program that would continue to grow.
"The credit really goes to those seven kids who stuck with it all the way when things were tough," he said. "We've got a lot of young stars who are going to come through this thing in the future, but the path, quite honestly, has been cleared by those seven kids."
He said he was sad to see the seniors leave, even though the team would still be strong next year.
"Yesterday when we lost was like a little piece had been cut out of you that you never get back," he said.
Senior catcher Jeff Niemeier talks with Tom Hedrick, radio voice of the Jayhawks, as Coach Dave Bingham waits to be interviewed. They were in the University of Kansas Athletic Corporation's maintenance shop at Allen Field House Monday after the homecoming rally.

Former KU Student Body President Brad Garlinghouse was one of three men who participated in placing the personal advertisement that appeared in the April 20 issue of the *Kansan* and named Nikki Millard. Lexena junior.
Three members of the Kansan's spring semester advertising staff — Wade Baxter, Osawatome junior, Cathy McWilliams, Topeka junior, and Sue Kratky, Omaha, Neb, senior — said Garlinghouse was at the business office counter with two other men when the advertisement was entered into a Kansan computer the afternoon of April 27.
McWilliams and Baxter identified Garlinghouse from photographs shown to them during an internal investigation overseen by Tom Eblen, Kansan general manager. Kratky, who knows Garlinghouse, told Jeanne Hines, Kansan advertising adviser, that Garlinghouse was one of the men at the counter.
Garlinghouse, who now lives and works in Wichita, said he might have been at the Kansan that afternoon but not to place an advertisement.
"I could have been there," he said. "I'm at the Kansan offices a couple times a week. But I did not write the ad. I did not place it. And I did not pay for it. I emptily deny any involvement in those things."
The 11-line, 97-word advertisement referred to a relationship between Millard and another, unnamed person.
On the afternoon of April 27, McWilliams took a telephone call to the Kansan regarding the advertisement. The caller dictated to McWilliams the advertisement that he wanted printed, she said. McWilliams' notes included a back-cell name of "Brad" and a telephone number.
According to the Southwestern Bell 1992-93 Lawrence telephone directory, the call-back number was that of Troy Benson, Overland Park junior, and Chad Gunther. Topeka senior. Benson and Gunther were house mates of Garlinghouse at 1029 Kentucky St. Garlinghouse had his own telephone number.
After Eben suggested revisions to the advertisement, McWilliams called the number, asked for "Brad" and told the man with whom she spoke that he needed to come to the Kansan to have the advertisement entered into the computer.
Garlinghouse said he was the only Brad
who lived at the house. He said he did not know who called the Kansan, dictated the advertisement and left the telephone number and name. He did not speak to McWilliams on the telephone that afternoon, he said.
"I'm not dumb enough to leave a phone number that I could, in any way, be traced to." Garlinghouse said.
When Garlinghouse and two other men came to the Kansan business office April 27, Kratty entered the advertisement into the computer, she said. The call-back name entered into the computer was that of a former boyfriend of Millard. The callback telephone number was that of Millard.
Millard said that she did not think he was responsible for it.
Millard said she once had an argument
The former boyfriend said he did not place the advertisement.
Millard and Garlinghouse said relations between them had been strained during the spring semester.
Millard, who had worked for Garlinghouse as co-director of the Center for Community Outreach, said she believed Garlinghouse was responsible for the advertisement.
"They went out of their way to use it a lot." she said.
with one of Garlinghouse's friends about the word "bitch." After the argument, Garlinghouse and the friend used the word in reference to her, she said.
One line in the advertisement referred to the word.
Garlinghouse said."I never had heard that 'bitch' stuffbefore.
Millard also said Garlinghouse and his friends used the nickname "little Millard" to refer to her. The nickname was used in the advertisement.
Garlinghouse said, "A lot of people called her 'little Millard.'"
Millard said she and Garlinghouse had dated twice during their freshman year. Garlinghouse said they had never dated.
"I was at Georgetown during my freshman year," Garlinghouse said. "The first time I met her was at a bar toward the end of my sophomore year. We kissed then, but we never dated."
Garlinghouse said he had no reason to try to damage Millard's reputation.

"She did a good job with community service this year," he said. "I don't have any motivation or interest in trying to damage her reputation."
