Let's call a truce...
This was the scene Wednesday night in the Kansas Union Jayhawk Room as the Student Mobilization Committee, with the aid of several members, reorganized its committee structure.
Housing committee offers code changes
The University Housing Committee met in the Strong Hall Regents Room Wednesday to discuss proposed changes in the housing code.
Halina Pawl, chairman of the committee, said the committee would accept housing grievances at any time. Anyone who has any complaints should put them in writing and present them to William Baifour, dean of students, or the People-to-People office, Miss Pawl said.
"We are interested in helping tenants get action on legitimate complaints." Miss Pawl said. "If it becomes necessary we will refer them to other agencies such as the Legal Aid Society. All complaints will be kept confidential."
Miss Pawl said that tenants should talk to their landlords if they had any complaints. If the
landlord refuses to do anything about it, the tenant should familiarize himself with the Lawrence Minimal Structures Code and report the complaint, she said.
The committee is working on a proposal to present to the Kansas Legislature early next year. The proposal deals with standard improvements, a more adequate definition of standards and more tenant protection.
Housing literature may be picked up in the Student Senate office or by calling Miss Pawl at 843-9289.
