Integrated Humanities enjoys revival
By MARK ZIEMAN Staff Reporter
Partly because of the work of a group of students, the Integrated Humanities program, a four-course-sequence based on the reading of classic works of literature, has ensured its enrollment this semester after years of controversy and student neglect.
The program, team-taught by Dennis Quinn, professor of English, and John Schroder, professor of classes, has attracted the faculty almost since its inception in 1970.
Quinn said that he was not quite sure caused the increased enrollment, but he
"We had an exceptionally energetic group of students last year," he said, "and some of them formed the Students for the Integrated Humanities."
THE GROUP raised money for a detailed brown-and-red brochure to explain the program to prospective students.
"It appears that the brochure the students put together and distributed

Opponents have labeled the program "a form of inductation" and have accused the instructors of being instructors converting students to Roman Catholicism.
In one instance, the father of a past IBST student accused the instructors of persuading his son to join a secluded monastery along with other students.
In the spring of 1976, the program was dealt another blow when two students participating in an HHP semester in North Carolina were being trapped by an incoming tide.
After the incident, the program suffered a large drop in enrollment, but Quinn said at the time that the drop was caused by an administrative decision. Quinn said she had emailing brochures to incoming freshmen and not because of the controversy.

KU fraternity awarded Harvard Trophy
The Phi Delta Theta fraternity at the University of Kansas has won the highest award given by its national authority, the Haskell Trophy, for the second consecutive year.
The fraternity received the trophy this fall for outstanding achievement in service, community service, academics and involvement during the 1980-'81 school year.
To qualify for the trophy, the fraternity had to receive one of the 25 awards in the NI-M-Excellence Awards given for overall philanthropic and campus activities.
In the last 56 years, the KU chapter has won the award 12 times, according to a report of students of KU's chapter. There are 160 chapters in the United States and Canada.
"It's quite an honor and the men here at the house are striving for it next year," Hall said.
The chapter also won the Paul C. Beam Award for an outstanding single-day basketball tournament to benefit Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Society America. The chapter awarded $6,000 raised from the tournament to the society.

Yesterday's inquisition into the Aug. 12 murder of a Topeka woman substantiated evidence implicating an assistant prosecutor in arranging to District Attorney Mike Malea.
Three witnesses, all from Topeka, were subpoenaed to the inquisition.
