De Soto mother and special student to act as special education librarian
By MARK ZIEMAN Staff Reporter
"I didn't do anything, I just wanted to help out," said Peggy Bodam.
A concerned mother and the University of Kansas have combined their resources to reopen the library of KU's department of special education, which had been closed this semester due to budget decrease in the department's budget.
Starting today, the De Soto housewife and KU special student will drive into Lawrence five days a week to volunteer her time as the department's librarian.
"The program is so important to us," she said, "and the library is just as important to the students who are trying to learn."
"This has been the greatest thing that's happened to us," she said, explaining that her four-year-old son, Sally, is getting ready for education early-intervention program.
THIS YEAR, the department's budget was cut from $300,000 to $99,500, said H. Rutherford Turnbull, chairman of the special education department.
In addition to closing the library in Hayworth Hall, the department was forced to discontinue all student scholarships and stipends, cancel courses and limit money for supplies an faculty travel expenses, he said.
Bodam said that she decided to volunteer a few hours a day after reading about the department's plight in a Sept. 16 Kansan article.
"I decided the minute I read the newspaper article," she said. "I just thought it was a shame, especially when it's something I can do."
She said that she was getting other mothers to donate their time, as well as setting up "a mail campaign between the parents and the Legislature."
“There are a lot of programs in this department that are federally funded,” she said. “If we had to pay for them out our own pockets, we could not afford to.”
"They doubled the ante on us, and we are delighted." he said.
Turnbull said the money would be used to pay students to work in the company.
"The article has obviously produced a heightened sensitivity to the needs of the special education students," he said. "I'm very grateful to those people who community and at the University have responded in such a positive way."

Quilts to be exhibited at area museum
In great-grandmother's day, a quilt meant an opportunity to gather with other area ladies to sew and gossip. But the quilt that once kept great-grandpa warm has evolved into an example of historic American art.
"We have over 280 members, from California to the East Coast, who belong to this guild," Shirar said. "People write letters asking for our newsletter and wanting to exchange patterns."
To increase appreciation for this craft, the Lawrence-based Kw Valley Quilters Guild is holding its third annual Showing of Quilts at the Watkins Community Museum, 1047 Massachusetts St. from Sept. 19 to 27.
MORE THAN HALF of the 200 items on display will be quilts. Patchwork tote bags, pillows and wall hangings are displayed, showing modern uses for an old duvet.
THESE OUT-OF-STATE members became aware of the organization's existence through increased national
The guild has also borrowed 19th century patchworks from the Kansas State Historical Society for the display. Seven of the items are quilts.
"One was made from fragments of old Revolutionary War soldiers' uniforms," said Maria Shirar, an organizer of the exhibition. "It's not very pretty, but it adds flavor of history."
The items are not all from Kansas. Two quilts from Pennsylvania have already arrived for the exhibition, and Shirar expects more.
