University Daily Kansan, September 1, 1981 Page 5 Enrollment From page one School of Architecture, which was up from 436 to 556 students. W. Max Lucas, dean of the school, attributed the increase to the school's high national reputation. He said that according to the 1980 Gourman Report, a rating of undergraduate students' architecture was ranked seventh in the nation, and structural engineering program was ranked fourth. "I feel it is an excellent undergraduate program. That's generally recognized throughout this area and around the country," Lucas said. He also said more students were enrolled because the school had added a fifth year to its undergraduate program and a few seniors had returned for an extra year. The School of Engineering continued growing, although enrollment began to level off this year. The school had grown from 1,750 in 1979 to 1,990 in 1980, but this year's enrolment was 1,964. Robert Zerwek, associate dean of engineering at the university, expected enrollment to increase for new years. It's been a very popular field for a number of opportunities. There are a lot of job opport- nities available. He said enrollment may not have increased as much as in past years because the number of high school graduates was leveling off. While engineering students are thinking about job opportunities, enrollment in the School of Fine Arts continued its downward trend. 1980 figures were 1,173, compared to this year's 1,071. James Moeser, dean of the school, blamed the school's aattrition on the economy. "The students migrate into areas where they are sure knowledge of marketability"18. Moeager say. He said that the arts and economic hardship did not mix. Although it appears the School of Business lost 7 students, John Tolleson, dean of the school, said that "every student was very disappointed." The school changed its admission requirements this year. Students must stay in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences until they have completed certain courses. Courses now required for entrance in the school were required only for graduation in past years. Business enrollment is now 798, but Tolleson expected the number of students graduating in the spring and in 1983 to be the same as in past years. "The change is more apparent than real," he said. Of over a dozen KU students questioned, most said they would use the pill, but only for a few years. The longest time any student said she would use the pill was 10 years. Diaphragms and condoms were most frequently listed as alternate birth control methods. Birth Control From page one "It's about the most hasteful of the ones Karen Adams, Railway senior, said about the train. Adams said she had not seriously considered using another kind of birth control, but she added that she thought the pill was dangerous if taken without it. The nurse she planned to use it for no more than 10 years. She said she consulted with her family doctor before getting her prescription and went back to check her blood pressure every six months to a year. "The last time I had it checked, they told me I was incredibly normal," she said. Adams said the only side effect she had noticed was weight gain. Elizabeth Strahl, Prairie Village sophomore, she planned to use it for only six years. Strahi said she felt she had been adequately warned about the oil's risks "They warn you about everything on the packages," she said. "She (Strahl's doctor) asked me about everything and told me all the precautions." But in some cases where warnings about the pill came true, women have charged that the oral contraceptives were dangerous and they had not been properly warned of the risks. In 1979, Kathleen Ertel of Fullerton, Calif. won a $2.5 million in damages against the Ortho Pharmaceutical Corporation after she suffered a stroke and was paralyzed while taking birth with her doctor and the pill's manufacturer had not warned her property of the pill's potential harm. In a similar case in which a jury awarded a plaintiff $3.8 million in damages in a suit against the same company, the federal judge in the case insisted that he would have decided he may have雷电 instructed in instructing the jury. The plaintiff, Susan L. Odgers of Sterling Mich. Mich., now lectures on the hazards of the pit. "Doctors call me a 'freak case', even though it's estimated that one in every 2,000 women taking the pill suffers a blood clotting disorder or has anemia, they said. "How many 'freak cases' do they need?" Statistically, figures on the patient information for pill users show that women bet wen the ages of 15 and 44 who use the pill have lower death rates than those of the same age not using the pill, except for women who are 40 to 44 years old and smoke. Dahl said he examined his patients' medical history and discussed potential hazards of the pill with them, but the patients made their own decisions whether to use the pill. "I give them the information, and from that, "make their decision," he said. "All I am in a position to believe." Rita Bowden, director of nursing at the Patient Care Center, advises patients should them own birth control. "We'll tell them what is not recommended from their history," Bowden said. "We let them chat about it." She said the health center gave patients a physical examination and took the full health history of the patient and her family before making a recommendation. "We can always give you statistics on what is most effective, but that doesn't always mean it's the best." Bowden said. "The best method is the one the woman wants to use." One of the pill's greatest advantages is its effectiveness as a precaution. Used correctly, it can prevent an overdose.
