Student Senate attendance down Long meetings cause problems Attendance at Student Senate meetings is low this semester. Dave Awbrey, Student Senate president, said the problem of attendance is due to long meetings. He said at each meeting it was necessary to elect replacements for Senate members who had dropped out. The Nov. 5 meeting, for example, lasted four and one-half hours. Twenty-three committee reports were heard, two resolutions were passed, seven vacancies were filled. Three roll calls were necessary. Two of the roll calls were to determine if a quorum was present. Awbrey said there was too much to do at the meetings, but beginning with the next meeting, the agenda will be shortened and meetings will be scheduled every two weeks. There have been five Student Senate meetings-four regular meetings and one emergency session. The regular meetings were Sept. 17, Oct. 8, Oct. 22, and Nov. 5. The special session was Oct. 1. Faculty requests medical center funds Physician manpower is scarce in the Kansas City area. The University of Kansas School of Medicine faculty has approved a new approach to solve the shortage problem. Dr. George A. Wolf Jr., dean and provost, said the faculty has requested the details to be worked out and funds allocated for the following provisions: - A new department at the medical center is to be set up to train young physicians in the family practice of medicine. - Hospitals throughout the state are to develop and improve internship and residency programs. - Size of the entering class is to be increased. - They must make commitments which will lead to the construction of a new multi-disciplinary science education building and new teaching hospital, required by the increased size of the entering class. Two weeks ago, Dr. Wolf announced medical faculty approval of a flexible curriculum which would allow medical students to complete the doctor of medicine degree in three rather than four years. Physicians wishing to go into general practice would complete a residency program for postgraduate training sponsored by the department of family practice. Both medical students and residents would receive some training at the KU Medical Center and some in Kansas communities outside metropolitan Kansas City.
