'Tide' Turns Jazzy
By RON BROZANIC
BY RON BRODINIE
Kanean Reviewer
Tide, a band popular in the Lawrence area for the last few years, has changed Changes in their music. The jazz have made the band more flexible, and in some ways more creative than the Tide of earlier decades.
Tim Smith, the group's gute
and sax player, has been
replaced by Greg Mackender,
who has added vibes to the band's
lust of instruments. He also plays
some of the songs and does some
of the song written.
B Lynch, formerly with Together, is now Tide's rhythm guitarist. He also is vocalist on more than half the songs.
the rest of the original Tide is still intact, Paul Miller is on bass, Steve Hall on drums and Jim Gillen, lead guitar, piano and keyboard.
Stringer is an exceptional guitarist, at home with all types of instruments. His work on jazz-orientated music, his riff昂首 border and dissonant
manage to fit the underlying chord progressions.
Tide is well balanced. The vocals by Lynch and Stringer are equally good, but there is less vocal harmony than in previous years, but when it is used at the end of a song
The band is still playing some of their old material, such as "The Cowboy Song," "The Litleen and 'You're Not the Only One'."
I personally miss the flute, and it's a nice piece. In Tide's earlier music, they now seem to favor the blues, despite Mackendron's equal ability on the flute.
Tide has added some new material to their act, such as the Rolling Stones' "Under My Thumb," Traffic's "40,000" and Jack Bruez's "Theme from an Imaginary Western."
Those who heard Tide at the ted dog on Saturday night heard the band and felt it was a chance to hear an artist. It was a professional group of musicians.

Deans of the various schools at the University of Kansas voiced mixed emotions about a new program at the University of Indiana that allows students who suffer a semester of bad grades to exclude those grades from their core grade point averages.
Deans React to Plan for Grades
The students who declare-
ment, will have the grades
semester, will have the grades
and courses appear on their
record, but will not be affected by
these.
At the University of Kansas, most students are allowed to choose a credit-no credit option
George R Waggoner, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and University in the Indiana plan if a student were transferring from one college.
"It might be feasible for students who enter one school early in their careers and find that it's not its talent. There are many other schools with grades from another school as he enters another field." he said.
WAGGONER added, "The only reason for giving the students a test is to prove probable failure of a student to graduate because he could not answer it."
Students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences need 124 hours of work and 248 grade points. Waggoner said. He said he has never taken a reasonable form of the Indiana concept. One bad semester of work will not put a student in a position of a grade point deficit, because he may take as many grades necessary to earn his 248 points.
Waggoner questioned the term, "academic bankruptcy." He said it was both clever and humiliating.
WAGGONER also questioned the stipulation of a one-semester limitation on the program.
"Emotional problems don't necessarily end at the end of the semester," he said.
Jerry Hutchinson, assistant vice chancellor of academic affairs, said he was not familiar with the Indiana program. He planned a plan was used at KU on an indoor baskets, but was not advertised.
"Such consideration (as the Indiana plan) is employed by the individual instructor when he allows a student to withdraw. An grade can always be given at the end of the instructor." Hutchinson said.
"I have had a number of students I took care of this way, he said, "and I'm sure that many of them have done the same thing."
Hutchinson also is an assistant professor of education, and a graduate counselor.
HUTCHINSON said he had a
"Too many parties or too much time with a car are inadequate for your job," the bankruptcy" he said. "If a student knows he has an out, he may give in. Hopefully, many of us will be able to handle genuine problems of students."
"One problem in a formal structure such as Indiana is it protects the status of but also is also an inducement or enticement for those with minor problems who have growing or discipline," he said.
HOWARD MOSSBERG, dean of the School of Pharmacy, said he did not favor academic bankruptcy. He expressed concern when he called a "trend in higher education to reduce standards."
"Students are told when they enter the school that an irregularity—such as academic failure caused by financial or domestic problems—that causes them to drop in progress will place them in academic probation." Mossberg said.
"The student on probation has a right to appeal his probation to our committee," he said. "In the case of an appeal, I should sit in the committee. I can't think of an instance where any other plan can work." He usually given another chance."
WHEN ASKED whether that meant that the student was well prepared, he said the student would have to keep his poor grade; but was well prepared.
According to  Mossberg,

to substitute required courses.
He estimated that 15 or 20 petitionts

The pharmacy school has a 2.0 grade point average overall requirement. Mossberg said that the pharmacy school requires that in some individual cases.

An informational meeting for prospective law students will be held on Monday, April 12, in Forum Room of the Kansas Union, according to J. A. Burzle, associate dean of the College of Sciences and pre-law adviser.
The second meeting is scheduled for 4:30 p.m. Sept. 21, in the Forum Room of the Kansas Union. Dean J. Elwood Slover of University, Topeka, will discuss the Washburn Law School program
Prospective Law Students Will Meet
The meeting is the first in a series of meetings with deans and professors from law schools in the United States. The purpose of the meetings is to acquaint college juniors and pre-graduate students with the requirements of U.S. law schools, the law school opportunities, Burke said.
The Law School Admission Text will be administered on the following dates: Saturday, Oct. 21, 1972; Saturday, Dec. 16, 1972; Sunday, Oct. 10, 1973; Saturday, April 14, 1973; Saturday, July 28, 1973.

KU Computer Enrollment Expected Within 3 Years
By JIM KENDELL Kansas Staff Writer
It's impossible for a University of Kansas student to pay his fees by mail and show up just in time for his first day of class, but 3,000 students at Wichita State University have more at WSU and Kansas State University came to school only to pay their fees.
KU Registrar William L. Kelly says such a computer-aided pre-enrolment system is two to three years off for KU.
"We're taking one step at a time toward that goal," Kelly said Monday.
K-State has had computer aided pre-enrolment since the fall 1986, according to E. M. Dean of admissions at K-State.

enrolment for the spring
semester takes place late in
morning.
Pre-enrollment consists of seeing an adviser and picking out the proper classes. A computer takes this data and schedules so that each of his classes will be as small as possible.
Gerritz said this system was used in the administration of enabled administrators to open sections of classes that were in demand and close sections of classrooms.
When a student comes to school in the fall or spring, all he has to do is fill out her registration form, and he pays his fees. Gerritz said.
The computer has even been programmed to leave 45 minutes to boot. The computer prints out a registration form and schedule
IF A CONFLICT occurs in i student checkouts, KState students enrolled in Twelve thousand of 15,000 K-State students enrolled using this method
In KU's current enrollment process and K-State's old one, the student who enrolled last had the least choice of classes.
Gerritz said, "I think we've had an awfully good reception from the students."
He said professors were amazed to see the same number of students in each class.
THE PRE-ENROLLMENT procedure at WSU is slightly different, according to WSU Resistor Victor Zaravarya.
THIS YEAR about a fifth of the student body at WSU paid its fees by mail and another fifth had paid their fees at enrollment
He can wait until regular enrollment to pay his fees. Students can even drop classes and add them at regular enrollment.
At WSU students see their advisers and request classes at certain times on certain days, and at other times they class as the doy at KState
"The chancellor needed to know more accurately what his budget was—how much money he to run the University," Kelly said.
"At the last three registrations many of the people were kind to comment on how smooth it was, Zavarella said Monday.
The money and manpower available for such a project depend on the priority the program gives to the program. Kelly said.
During pre-enrollment WSU students pick up class cards, seniors pick up older seconds, etc. Before the exam, students receive his schedule in the mail and has the option of paying his fees then. Zarvarella
He said the main advantage of the computer-aided system was the savings in student and administration time.
Kelly said many problems
he faced to solve before
KU went online for a new
system. He listed program
complexity, time, money and
sales.
MOST STUDENTS were aware of the change in enrollment. Some of the older students were among the few unaware of the change, Kelly
This fall KU students paid the fees at enrollment for the first time. Kelly said students had to help the chancellor with his bid.
KELLY SAID the computer program had to be complex because BU had more students than KELLY had courses than K-State or WSU.

one.
"If a person is in scholastic difficulty, such that reenrollment is prohibited, and extenuating circumstances make his case special, he has a right to petition the committee. The committee will review his case and has the right to wave the rules."
One of the ways KU tries to fill in gaps is by using the courses and the classes available is by using the course request survey student's enrollment package.
"I've had an awfully lot of students say, 'Why didn't we do it'
Those guidelines specify, as any rule or regulation, and there is no leaver. We have a Petitions Constitution Committee for appeals.

Students may have found it a little more difficult to sneak into Alen Field House before their fall, which this fall than other semesters.
Clifford Clark, dean of the School of Business, said he liked the concept of the Indiana plan. "The general notion is good. It allows students to have so many students with these problems," Clark said.
Students enrolled in business courses have the right to withdraw at any time during the semester. Clark explained that students should enroll in the courses, regardless of their school affiliations.
Whether a department is able to offer more lessons of a class requested on the surveys depends on the department's budget.
W. Stitt Robinson, chairman of the history department, said, "I didn't find any student who reached me with a letter asking for the stamp they needed."

Kelly said, "There wasn't any change. It was just a matter of us being more bent on abiding by the rules."
As in Indiana's program, the Business School leaves the courses on the student's tran- sition to university, failing mark left for reference.
Edward P. Bassett, dean of the School of Journalism, said he too, like the concept.
Clark explained that the present system of withdrawal at any time was a new program that he has been developing for mittee headened by Knapper, associate professor of business, and bankruptcy program as used at Indiana is that the student does not have to take his peers exact Clark's instructions.
"It it's merit. I've recently been offered a position such bad grades at the first of his academic career that it is virtually impossible for him to graduate."
BASSETT SAID, however, that drops in hours of work for an arbitrary reason. He said he could support such a request on his interest agenda.
"When a student takes on an overload of work, like on a newspaper, there may be a need for the student to consider such a plan. If his grades fall due to his participation on the paper," he said.
"Also, there is a trend for students to take more and more time to look at our methods of measurement of growth and progress. If deletion of a period of growth or graduation, it should be considered."
Bassett said student problems did not always lie in emotional problems or problems of too much detail. Bassett's administrators should look at a student's period of decline and see why he got off the a bad start. They should look to see whether they are using a certain type of study methods. Bassett said

upset by an outside interest.
The School of Fine Arts maintains what Thomas Gordon, dean, calls 'quality controls.' Students must attain at least a certain level of training and departments in the school have higher requirements. Gordon said Occupational Therapy, for example, is one department in biological and social sciences.
GORTON WENT on to say that piano and voice required a "B" average in the major subject. The student who cannot meet standards for any reason is advised to major majors, Gorton said.
"We have a system of warning probation. A student has to meet probation requirements to retest him, but he cannot, he can not," he said.
Gorton used a baseball analog to back up the school's probation
Size Limitations Hit Law School
By BOB LITCHFIELD
Kansas Staff Writer
A lack of space and an increased number of applications caused the University of Kansas to send 400 to 500 Kansas residents 'who think we're doing them wrong because we were Kansas' only state-supported law school.' Dickinson, dean of the school.
Several measures have been taken to alleviate the shortage of space. A temporary annex northeast of Green Hall was opened this summer providing one room and a student placement service for summer internships and postgraduate employment.
This year, Dickinson said, the law school received 1,650 applications for the Open 10, 20 or 9 per cent, could be accepted.
A new law school building is on the list of priorities to be submitted by the governor, Legislature, Dickinson said, but he added that it could not become a law school.
AN EXPANDED summer, more students to enroll, all this summer approximately 175 students, about one-third of the fall total, enrolled in the school. Another 80 students to receive his Juris Doctor degree in three summers and to graduate of the usual three full years.
If it accepts the proposal, the legislature would set up an archival construction budget in 1975. This would mean the building probably could be occupied at the 1977-78 school year, he said.
"WE WOULD have to project 20 or 30 years into the future, and see what enrolment will be then, and build a building with this in mind," he said.
The size of a new Law School building has not been determined.
Dickinson this might cause a dilemma in trying to keep enrollment small enough to guarantee quality education and at the same time offering an award in law to all qualified applicants.
Two reasons for the recent boom in Law School applications throughout the country were offered. The main reason,
PROSPECTIVE LAW STUDENTS
On Wednesday, Sept. 13 at 4:00 p.m. in the Forum Room of the Kansas Union, D. Martin Dickenson and several faculty members and administrative officers of the K.U. Law School will meet with students interested in attending Law School. They will discuss entrance requirements, the Law School Aptitude Test and the curriculum and program of the Law School.
Dickinson thought, was the poor job market.
"There just aren't enough jobs in many other areas," people complain to college professors, graduate degrees, often can't find employment." Dickinson says.
While the number of lawyers has more than doubled in recent years, the demand still exists.
"this CAN be seen by noting that startling salaries have grown larger proportionately to the increase of lawyers," he said.
Dickinson noted the changing image of lawyers in society, and pointed to television shows such as "The Bold Ones" and "The Bold Ones."
Starting salaries for law school graduates range from $9,000 to $17,000, he said, depending on the region.
Dickinson noted changes in the university's enrollment and percentage of older students and more minority groups were represented in the school.
system. "Generally a student can be on probation for three semesters. That is three chances in a row. Personally, I feel that is the way it works. That's all you get in baseball, three chances and you're out."
Clinic to Help Speech Flaws
He said he believed such programs gave a realistic look at 'he profession.
"The profession has broadened in recent years, and these programs reflect some of the changes" he said.
The Speech and Hearing Clinic at University of Kansas will offer a computer program for adult stutterers and children in community and KU during the fall semester. Meetings will be held on Wednesday, Thursday in 288 Worthah Hall.
