Homefest '94 lends a hand
Habitat for Humanity to receive proceeds from benefit concert
Patty McGrew doesn't believe in handouts.
Instead, she said, she believed in hand-ups — lending people a hand to help them get started.
As coordinator for Homefest '94; a benefit concert that will raise money for Habitat for Humanity, McGrew, Lawrence resident, said she hoped to raise enough money to lend someone a home as well as a hand.
For the fifth year in a row, Habitat for Humanity will sponsor Homeest, a two-hour variety show that features everything from hot jazz to cool love ballads, McGrew said. It will be 7:30 p.m. Friday at Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St.
"It is our only fund-raising campaign, but we raise more money every year," McGrew said.
Habitat for Humanity, which opened its Lawrence chapter five and a half years ago, builds low-income housing for working families who cannot get a loan, McGrew said. In time, the families pay back the group.
"We give those who work as hard as everybody else the opportunity to buy a home," she said.
The eight groups who will be volunteering their time to Homefest '94 have a wide range of talents, said McGrew. Las Cuatro, a four-piece female group, will perform Latino folk songs, and the Lawrence High School cheerleaders will perform a cheer especially written for Habitat for Humanity, she said.
Chuck Berg, professor of film studios, will be playing the tenor saxophone and the flute with his son, Nathan Berg, in a jazz duet. Nathan Berg, Lawrence senior and an accomplished bass player, toured three years ago with trumpet player Maynard Ferguson and is directing the music for Rock Chalk Review, Chuck Berg said.

Degrees, not faculty positions, are cut
By Jamie Munn
Kansan staff writer
He said that the discontinued programs had few faculty members and
KU officials cited limited funds for the discontinuance of seven degree programs last month. But faculty in those fields probably won't be looking for other jobs or paychecks.
Lindy Eakin, associate vice chancellor for administration and finance, said no faculty member had lost his or her job after the Board of Regents approved the eliminations Jan. 27.
Eakin said the cuts had been intended to keep future costs from increasing — rather than to decrease current expenditures.
"The programs were discontinued because they needed to be brought up to a level that we couldn't afford," Eakin said.
that bringing the programs up to strength would have been expensive.
"We're not taking any resources away," Eakin said. "We're just trying to avoid having to put more into them in the future."
Eakin said that some faculty probably still would be teaching the same classes but that they would be moved to different departments.
"There may be less costs for some of the laboratory work," he said. "That money could then go to the undergraduate courses."
In other situations, such as the elimination of the master's degree in atmospheric science, the professors will teach undergraduate courses, Eakin said. Only the bachelor of science in atmospheric science remains.
David Ambler, vice chancellor for academic affairs, said that professors
Students in the discontinued degree programs have until Dec. 31, 1996, to complete their degrees. But no new students have been accepted in those majors since Dec. 31, 1993, when the University officially eliminated the seven degrees.
would be essentially in the same teaching roles while the programs were being faded out.
Ambler said the faculty, many of them tenured, probably would teach the same classes.
"Everyone remains in their area but not necessarily in their degree," he said.
Ambler said the departments now would not be compelled to hire additional staff in the discontinued programs. This would allow them to focus their limited funds on the courses and degrees that remain.
