A budget that would raise the price of parking permits was approved yesterday by the University Senate Executive Committee.
SenEx OKs parking fee hike
By Dan England Kansan staff writer
Yellow student stickers would be raised $3, from $50 to $53. Residence hall stickers would be raised $2, from $33 to $35.
Faculty stickers would be raised by $5: blue stickers from $80 to $85, and red stickers from $65 to $70.
SenEx originally rejected the budget at its meeting two weeks ago, but Alan Black, head of the University Parking Board, wrote a letter to SenEx justifying the increases.
In the letter, he said that the operating costs of the parking department
Because the department is financially self-sufficient, as required by state law, it receives no money from taxes or tuition payments, and it must make up for the expenses some other way. Black said at the meeting.
will increase by 3 percent next year, and the proposed permit price increase will cover that.
Black said the increase was necessary for next fall because the money from the increase would help pay for a $150,000 project that would build separate entry and exit drives for the parking lot east of the Kansas Union.
Robert Frifau, professor of physics and astronomy, said he would not be able to return.
"I hate to pay for parking, but it sounds like a reasonable increase," Friauf said.
But other members had some reser
vations about passing the budget.
Sandra Zimdarz-Swartz, associate professor of religious studies, said she would like her salary to increase along with the parking budget.
"I don't remember receiving a 3 percent salary increase last year," tired Darswant Swartz said. "I'm really tired of my salary getting nickeled and dined to death."
The members' reservation showed in the final vote out of the six members present, only two voted to pass the bill, with one vote against and three abstaining.
University Council will consider the board's recommendations Feb. 11. If the executive vice chancellor approves the bill, it must be submitted to the Board of Regents by Feb. 19.
Spooner Hall updates climate-control system
CAMPUS BRIEFS
Spooner Hall, home of the Museum of Anthropology, is updating its climate-control system to better preserve the thousands of artifacts housed in the museum.
The current climate-control system uses window air conditioners and room humidifiers to help preserve the museum's collection, said Maria Martin, museum secretary.
KU Navy ROTC honors top Fall 1992 midshipmen
This system could not maintain the proper temperature and humidity levels, she said.
The new system will be a state-of the art system, Martin said. It will precisely regulate the temperatures and humidity levels in the building.
"Cotton" Elston, superintendent for B.A. Green Construction Co., 1207 Iowa St., said the project began about three weeks ago. The Lawrence firm is responsible for all the work involved, including the construction of a retaining wall and concrete pad outside the building for the unit.
Five University of Kansas students recently were named Midshipmen of the Semester by KU Navy ROTC for Fall 1992.
Each semester, an awards review board recognizes one outstanding student from each of the freshman, sophomore, junior, senior and officer-candidate classes.
Selection is based on grade point average, a military aptitude score and the student's contributions to the unit during the previous semester. The students receive a certificate of recognition from the naval science department and a $100 U.S. savings bond.
Students honored are: Daniel J. Bradley, Lawrence officer candidate; Darrell C. Railsback, Bartlesville, Okla., freshman; Andrew R. Wiksten, Topeka sophomore; David W. Hanks, Little Rock, Ark., junior; and Richard G. Honan II, Kansas City, Mo., senior.
Second bank joins dispute over payments for copiers
The University of Kansas Center for Research Inc. has been named as the defendant in a second lawsuit over payment for copy machines.
Bank 10 of Belton in Belton, Mo., filed the suit seeking $19,614 in Douglas County District Court Friday. According to the suit, the center defaulted on its payments after receiving a copier and a sorter on June 27, 1990.
The first suit, filed by Hillcrest Bank in Kansas City, Mo., Jan. 13 in Douglas County District Court, seeks $24,350.
According to the suit, the center received two copiers and one sorter on March 18, 1992, and has since defaulted on its payments.
Both cases involve copy equipment purchased from Century Office Products Inc., 925 Iowa St.
