Need a Major? Try Unionology
Bv LEE WHITE
Unionology is one course that you won't find listed in the University catalog, yet there are many students at KU enrolled in it. A few students choose it as their major field, but most students enroll in it for two or three hours.
The classes are conducted in the Hawk's Nest or Trail room. Here one can find true liberal arts philosophy in action.
Students are divided into small discussion or "gazing" groups of two, four, six, and sometimes ten persons.
persons.
Topics run the gamut from literature, music, and art, to a discussion of the finer things of life: the anatomy of women and the "Golden Arrow."
To the uninitiated, the Hawk's Nest and Trail room are places where one goes to eat or take a coffee break. But to the serious unioniology major, those rooms have an entirely different meaning.
The typical unionology major usually reaches the Hawk's Nest around 9 a.m. By 10 a.m. he feels a guilty twinge of conscience and decides to make a concession to propriety by attending a class. Leaving a book on the table, he takes advantage of an unwritten code known to all unionologists which in effect says that an unoccupied table with books on it is automatically reserved and is not
to be disturbed.
After attending one class, he decides that he has fulfilled his obligations to the taxpayers who, through supporting the college, make the unionology courses available, and his parents, who are footing the bill for his education.
Before again settling himself comfortably in the Hawk's Nest, he decides to get the one prerequisite supply for all unionology classes, namely a deck of cards.
As soon as the hostess sees his familiar face coming up the steps, she greets him by his first name, and at the same time automatically reaches for a deck of cards. By the time he reaches her desk, she has already recorded his name on the check-out list.
He goes back down stairs and the familiar card game begins. No one really cares about playing cards. The card game is merely something to give them the appearance of being busy while they excitedly study the female figures strolling through the coffee line.
After three or four hours of card playing, the student drifts up to the Trail room where a group resembling the Young Dramatist's League is giving an impromptu performance of Hamlet, Macbeth, or some other light entertaining classic.
Half hidden in a thick cloud o smoke sit the "cool ones," busy humming flatted fifths and dimin
ished sevenths to the "uncool" music on the juke box. When the music stops, strange people such as "Bird," "Dizzy," "Monk," and "Brueck" are discussed.
There are other types too numerous to mention here.

Report Released on Welfare
"The State Department of Social Welfare," the fourth in a series of reports of state-local relations in Kansas, has been released by the Governmental Research center.
The report states that within the limitations imposed by national policy, state-local relations on the Kansas welfare scene seem to be effective in carrying out the program.
The original development of the social welfare program in Kansas was primarily local, but since 1935,
the paramount influence has been that of the national government, the report states. The report recommends:
The report recommends:
A course of action to make the county officials feel that they have a responsible part in the program such as a revision, of the national and state programs so the county officials would have more authority. A revision in the program so that the needs of the individual counties would be given greater consideration.
