KU physician sees sexual values change
By ANA DEL CORRAL Staff Reporter
Sexual freedom has changed much at KU during the last quarter of a century, says Raymond Schwegler, a physician and gynecologist who has worked at Watkins Hospital for 25 years.
"There is much more promiscuity," he said last week. "We certainly see a lot of infections that we never saw 20 years ago."
Schweigel, head of Watkins' new gynecology department, said he considered the changes towards more sexual freedom negative because they increased the risk of contracting a venereal disease.
"Herpes is a case in point," he said. "TWENTY PERCENT OF the American population is afflicted by Herpes." "This means that every fifth man that you pass on the street might be a carrier," he said.
Schwegler, who has a medical
degree from the University of Minnesota, studied pre-med at the University of Kansas, and all of his children graduated from KU. He said this made him care a lot about the KU students who came to see him.
People go to see Schweigter about all sorts of gynecological problems, but a large percentage of his patients go to see him for advice on contraception.
"Most of the things we see revolve around the pill and the diaphragm," he said. "The pill is the one most common method of contraception."
JOHN BUGHMAN, actor director for Watkins Pharmacy, said the pharmacy sold about 600 cycles of birth control pills every month and 280 duphragms a year. One cycle is the contraceptive receptive pills needed for one month.
Schweger said, "The number of people coming with contraceptive needs is vastly greater than it used to be."
"One of our main purposes is to educate in any way we can with their
personal problems," he said. "We are here to recommend and to suggest. We don't make any attempts to order people's morals."
Schwegler said that if a patient were suffering from health problems as a result of using the pill, he would try to turn her toward other contractions.
civilians.
He said that Kansas' reputation as a conservative state was not evident in the cases he dealt with.
the cases he dealt with.
"This is a sort of melting pot," he said.
He said that KU, like most American colleges, had a cosmopolitan population and that he had treated students from countries such as Iran, England, Germany, and several South American countries.
THE GYNEOLOGY DEPARTMENT at Watkins, Schwegler said, also offers some prenatal care during the first few months of pregnancy
Watkins refers cases
He said if a patient chose abortion, the department usually referred women to the University of Kansas for treatment. The department's comprehensive Health in Kansas City, Kan.
"We first determine whether they are pregnant or not and then try to see they are referred to areas that are appropriate for the practitioners will not do it in law."
Also, Watkins Hospital does not deal with all forms of contraception. He said doctors at Watkins did not put in place contraception because IUDs often caused infections.
THE HEALTH CARE that Watkins offers is paid for by student fees.
However, he said, the biggest saving for students comes from having their prescriptions filled at Watkins Pharmacy where, because the state offers a discount price, drugs can be sold cheaper.
He said a package of birth control pills, which is one cycle, costs $3 at the pharmacy. The pills sell for between $7 and $10 in retail pharmacies.
On Friday, Green Hall had become a greenhouse in the eyes of many people who work and study there.
A combination of 100-degree temperatures, an abundance of windows, a malfunctioning air conditioner and a University energy conservation program made the building uncomfortable.
On Thursday, the air conditioner was down at Green, and the heat in the building was blamed for sending one person to the hospital because of heat exhaustion.
Green Hall folks feel the heat
"I have not received less than 50 complaints in the past 24 hours." Michael J. Davis, dean of the School of Law, said Friday afternoon.
William Hogan, associate executive vice chancellor, said the shutdowns had been going on since July 1, and they
Davis said the heat had an ugly effect on people's enthusiasm for work and study. He also questioned the University's practice of shutting down air conditioners in 14 buildings, including Green, or two one-hour periods during the day.
were designed to cut down on the University's electric bill.
Hogan said that the breakdown at Green on Thursday was fixed later that day and that the temperatures in the hall were tolerable Friday.
Hogan said he did not think the energy-conservation program should have to take the last of complaints for the excessive heat last week at Green.
He said part of the reason Green Hall was so hot was the building's multi-window design, which allows the sun to penetrate most of the building.
"It's outrageous," said Peter Schanck, director of the law library. "I would guess that my office is in the 90s."
Hogan said he had only received complaints about hot temperatures from people in Green Hall people in the city, and from the buildings on the energy program.
For two weeks before the beginning of the semester, the air conditioning in Fraser was not working and temperatures had reached the 90s in some offices. The system was fixed by the time classes began.
