University Daily Kansan, October 2,1981 Page 11 Washburn defers plea to become state school By STEVE ROBRAHN Staff Reporter The president of Washburn University of Topeka asked a Kansas legislative committee yesterday to defer for two years Washburn's request to become a Board of Regents university. The Kansas Legislative Interim Budget Committee voted unanimously to halt a feasibility study of a state takeover of Washburn, a municipal city after listening to a brief statement by Washburn President John L. Green Jr. "Like any institution, we want to study alternative sources of funding for the future." Green said last night. Green has been president of Washburn for only two months, and five of 10 Washburn regents are new, he said. In the school, the school has no long-range plan. "The combination of those three factors meant deferring a decision to become a school school if I could put a five-year plan together." Green said. said Washburn was still interested in becoming a state institution, but not in becoming an extension campus of the University of Kansas. ABOUT FOUR WEEKS AGO Green "We're no financial crisis," Green said. "We're concerned with the future finances in a way no different than any other organization. "We just didn't want to rush in and make a decision." Green said that Washburn's board of regents would most certainly decline any invitation to become a state school and that the governor would affect the Washburn Law School. "I am pleased the committee approved the deferral," he said. "In two years I'll be back to share our five-year budget and up the conversation where we left off." HOWEVER, a member of the committee who introduced legislation to make Washburn a state school during the 1981 legislative session said it could take as long as five years before Washburn becomes a state institution. "I imagine it will be another five years before Washburn is admitted to the state system," said State Rep. William Bunten, R-Topeka. Homosexuality is not acquired genetically, pathologically nor biologically, but it is learned, Michael Storms, chairman of the pattress at a meeting last night at a meeting of Gay and Lesbian Services of Kansas. By CATHERINE BEHAN Staff Reporter Homosexuality learned, professor savs at a time when children play exclusively with members of their own sex. Storms told about 10 members of the group, in the Pine Room of the Kansas Union, that his research of the origins of homosexuality had shown that most homosexuals had an early onset of sex-drive, coming "Children between the ages of eight and 13 form tight, cohesive groups to which the other sex is not invited to participate," Storms said. When children reach puberty and begin what Storms called a "sexdrive onset," they learn about their own sexuality. "What I like about the theory is that the origin of homosexuality is friendship," he said. "It's part of our culture, but also a part of how all feel toward members of our own sex during hormonal sexual bonding, except that our sexual drive onset begain before society told us to do things with the opposite sex." He said that old theories of the origin of homosexuality didn't fit what a homosexual was really like, but actually fit well with the stereotypes traditionally given to homosexuals. He said it had been impossible for researchers to abandon false hypotheses because they fit the stereotypes so well. "I can tell you that none of the theories of genetic, physiological, biological, psychodynamic, or social learning have ever been supported by any research." he said. Storms said old theories also assumed that something goes wrong to make a person a homosexual and/or a transgender. To find the cause of sexuality in itself. "The eroticization process is a learning process that teaches people to respond to different stimuli," he said. The process begins in early adolescence with sexual fantasizing, masturbation and orgasm, he said.
