"I'm kind of skeptical about the process," he said.
IN THE PAST, students went to individual departments to drop and add classes. Faculty members were notified of enrollment by e-mail or by drop and add slips in their mailboxes.
Under the computer drop and add process,
however, students fill out only one card and
then click on "Save" to save it.
Seaver said he saw no advantages in the new drop-add system. He said he would like to see computer early enrollment retained because future courses were returned to the hands of the department.
SEAVER SAID he had received complaints from, faculty because they did not get notice of each add and drop unless a student told them.
He said he was not sure, however, what SenEx planned to do about the matter.
James Carothers, associate professor of English, said KU instructors were not learning of drops and adds as they occurred. Because of this, he said, attendance reports
Thompson said he had suggested at a meeting with the Council of Deans last April that faculty members receive two rosters of adds and drops, one at the end of the second week of classes and one at the end of the fifth week.
were confused, and faculty were not advise students of which courses were still open.
But budget reductions forced his office to cancel the second-week roster, Thompson said.
FACULTY MEMBERS will not get attendance rosters that list all adds and drops until the end of the fifth week of classes, which also is the last opportunity to drop a class under University policy, Thompson said.
Thompson said he was upset about the long lines. He said he hoped that in the future students would begin to make schedule changes on the drop-aid period after enrollment.
Thompson said some students thought the new enrollment system was responsible for the large number of closed classes. But the closing of required courses such as English
He said he was considering scheduling appointments for students to drop and add classes in future semesters.
STUDENTS WOULD choose a five-minute period to make any schedule changes, and the long lines would disappear, Thompson said.
101 and Math 101 was actually the result of budget reductions, he said.
Thompson said that students had been allowed to make schedule changes last Saturday, but few students took advantage of the extra day.
Some students are learning to beat the system by working with it, he said. Some students are coming to add classes with several alternative courses picked out, which means they need to make fewer trips back and forth.
Janiece Halbur, Garden City, sophomore, said she had the new add-drop policy and was confused about when a deen's stamp was needed. Yesterday was her fifth time through
"THERE MUST be an easier way to add a class." Halburn said.
Thorpe

"He was a very quiet man," said Gail. "He knew he won, the world knew he won, and he didn't have to have the medals to prove he was the winner."
THE IOC had new copies of the 1912 medals struck for the occasion. The original medals were awarded to the second-place finishers, a Swede and a Norwegian. One was stolen and the other is believed to be in the archives of a Swedish museum.
After years of requests, the U.S. Olympic committee recently agreed to ask the IOC to
Thore was born in 1888 in a cabin along the
North Canadian River, near Stroud, Okla. He was named Wa-tho-huck, meaning "Bright path."
In September 1896 he began a short stay at Haskell, which at that time was on a military system. At Haskell, Thorpe became interested in football and was given his first "football"— four leather straps sewn together and stuffed with rags — by Haskell star Chauncey Archigüette.
Thorpe went on to play both professional baseball and football. He became supervisor of recreation for Chicago parks before he died in 1953. He was elected to both the college and professional football halls of fame, and the Indian Sports Hall of Fame, located at Haskell.

"I'm hoping they wouldn't carry over any bitterness from the campaign," she said.

Any bitterness among Republicans toward Lady is not justified, Gaar said, because Lady had taken a stand on an tax that was the fairest that could be assessed.
Rep. Jess Branson, D-Lawrence, said she was surprised at the news of Lady's Senate opposition. She said she did not think Carlin's appointment was a political payoff.
Lady was appointed because of his knowledge of the Legislature and of the Board of Regents, she said.
"We are already in operation in Jolliffe Hall." Dary said. "It may affect the morale of the students, but most of the students in broadcasting are juniors or seniors, so they know that the new building will not be finished in time for them."
last year and into temporary rooms in the Blake Hall annex, Jolliffe Hall and other buildings on campus.
He said the department was still looking for a permanent home. However, he said he did not know where the broadcasting facilities would go if the new building were not built.
"THAT'S A CASE where University administration would have to decide." he said.

mination would have to occur. He said,
In his statement, Bodig denied that the
postponement meant an lessening of interest in the project on the part of Weir and his wife.
"Rather," he said in the statement, "we see this as a time to encourage an even broader involvement of knowledgeable individuals serving in telecommunications to assist us and help design a truly exceptional program for the University of Kansas."
Brinkman said he thought Budig's statement called for study in many different areas, but said he hadn't taken a stand.

He also said he did not know how long the pestonement would last.
"I think when finances have loosened and a study is done, the program will come back," he
Francisco's tentative decision not to seek re-election was personal and that he would respect her decision.
He said he had not decided whether to run for re-election. Francisco's decision would have no effect on his own, he said. His two-year term on the commission ends this year.
COMMISSIONER DON BINNS, who also is up for re-election but has not filed, said he was surprised by Francisco's decision because he had thought she was going to run.
"She's changed her mind before and it wouldn't surprise me to see her change her mind again." Binns said.
Commissioner Nancy Shontz told she was disappointed by Francisco's decision.
From page 1
"I'd like to see her run again," Sharon said. Francisco said she ran for the City Commission four years ago thinking she had no chance to win a four-year term.
The top two finishers in the voting in each city election have four-year terms on the commission, and the third-place finisher has a two-year term.
"He may be on a high plain, but that doesn't prevent him from relating to those who aren't," Bastin said.
Hockett's parents, R.E. and Joyce Hockett agreed.
Like their son, the Hockettts they were surprised at his being named a Rhodes Scholar. They said they knew he had what it took to be a scholar, but they also knew there were many other students equally qualified.

Hockett is quick to defend that side of himself. "The prankster in everybody is an important part of character to keep," he said. "But without respect for him, amnistition. It's kind of like the child in us all."
J. Eldon Fields, professor of political science, said Hockett had an imaginative mind.

"It's fun to watch his wheels go round," said Fields, who is Hockett's adviser for his honors thesis. "In 37 years around the University, he's the most outstanding student I've had."
