Bomb warnings ignored

Hef Jsu needs more than a bomb threat to get out of sed.
"I just went back to sleep." Hsu said.
According to University of Kansas Police records, the Lawrence Police told hall staff at 4:48 a.m. on Sept. 24 to turn out at the school.
The Overland Park freshman at McColum Hall said resident assistants banged on his door early in the morning on Sept. 24 to tell him about a bomb threat at the hall.
'Maybe one or two guys went down to the lobby.' Stubbe said.
Todd Stubbie, Rochester, N.Y., freshman, said he'd know of any residents who left the hall after the RA's
Fred McElhenie, director of residential programs, said residents always are notified about bomb threats, but are not told.
"If you evacuate en masse and a bomb goes off, it will probably kill more people," McElhaney said.
He said resident directors are supposed to call him immediately after they notify police of bomb threats. In this incident, police were told about the first threat, and then the police called hall staff. Randi Schneider, resident director of McColum Hall, said she immediately called McElhene.
McEhlennie said he told Schneider to follow the policy. Schneider said KU police and hall staff checked the public areas of the hall, and did not买 a bomb. Meanwhile, RAS told the students about the bomb threat.

"By now, you can see it was turning into a comedy of errors," Gary said.
Upon hearing that his company was being investigated for fraud, Gary said that he experienced several emotions.
"At first I was scared, then I was disappointed and then I was mad," he said. "Our name was being assigned to me because of reason. We didn't even know what was going on. It's like someone calling you names behind your eyes."
Gary and Linda said they wished the Attorney General's office had tried harder to contact them
The office apparently sent calls and letters to only one number and one address when trying to contact the company, the Guimps said.

Yet the Guinns could have been reached at the Wichita corporation address, by way of the post office, and not the other area radio detecting compa-
"We don't blame them completely," Linda said. "It's their job to investigate. We just wish they would have showed more effort in bringing us before announcing it (the investigation) across the state."
Linda said she and Gary are also to blame for the mix-up.
"We made mistakes," she said. "There were things we could have done to prevent this."

Barbara Bradford, a Lawrence resident who made the trip in a motorized wheelchair, said the march was sparked when SHS officials told Fred Markham, a law enforcement officer, that services would be discontinued if he did not sign a
Bradford said the major problem with the document was that it outlined all of Markham's responsibilities, but none of his rights and none of SRS's duties. She said Markham signed the agreement under protest.
During the meeting, SRS officials agreed to accept suggestions for revisions, and then submit them for approval to SRS's policy board. They did not guard against errors by Dr. Branson, D. Lawrence, who participated in the march.
