Summer
And then there is yet another student favorite, the Lawrence Opera House, that will not be a part of local color for a while. The Opera house is being sold.
But, don't worry, because according to Travel and Leisure magazine, a group of small towns that has "mystery, tradition, beard and a sense of limitless possibilities."
IN ACADEMICS, the Gourman report, a privately owned university rating service, rated KU fairly high KU's undergraduate curriculum and programs were ranked 40th out of 1,744 institutions surveyed and the graduate programs were ranked 40th out of 562. Data for the survey was gathered by the institutions themselves and through private investigation.
The undergraduate architecture program in the School of Architecture and Urban Design bettered its 1977 ranking of 32 by jumping to a seven. However, the business administration program in the School of Business fell from the 10-18 range in 1977 to the 22-58 range of any program surveyed.
New additions to Lawrence include two women first flighters at 600 Mass and two women first pilots.
KU was sorry to lose one of its professors this summer. James "Tony" Gowen, director of the freshmenphomore English department, died at the age of 52. His colleagues said he would be greatly missed.
With the majority of students gone during the summer, Lawrence might have been relatively quiet. However, from mid-June to July 1, the city was invaded by noisy cicadas. The inch-long insects appear only once every 17 years to eat ravenously, lay eggs and die. This process produced an intense buzzing and roaring as the insects are and beat their wings.
Insects were not the only thing causing a flurry, however. Two high school girls attending KU's summer fine arts camp in June called their parents from Des Moines, claiming they had been kidnapped by a religious cult in Minsky's parking lot at 23rd and Iowa Streets.
They said the cult members had surrounded them, forced them into a van and taken them to Des Moines. The girls to go to Des Moines. The girls to convert them. They dumped them.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Des Moines police department and the Lawrence police department are charged in a case, but no arrests have been made.
And now one more reassuring thought for the start of the 1981 school year. This summer Lawrence, as a U.S. city with over 50,000 people, was only in the third-highest risk category in the event of a nuclear attack.
IDs to be issued next month
By JO LYNNE WALZ Staff Reporter
It has been a year since Gill Dyk,
dean of admissions and records, announced that the University of Kansas would start issuing photo identification cards. Now he says the equipment to manufacture the cards finally is here.
Plans are being made to distribute the cards sometime in September, Dock said.
Students will be charged $1.50 for a new card and $5 to replace a lost or stolen card. Dyck said that those charges would cover only the costs of the equipment, materials such as film, and worker wages.
At enrollment, new students will receive temporary white paper IDs, which will be replaced by the photo IDs in September. Duck said.
He said that the exact time and location of the card distribution had not yet been decided.
**WHEN THE CARDS are issued in September, however, a student who wants a photo ID will sign a blank card and have his picture taken. The picture and the card will then be laminated ready for immediate use by the student.**
The new IDs will be the fifth KU identification card in 15 years.
AFTER THE NEW photo IDs are issued, the old plastic IDs will still be
valid, and students will not be required to replace them. Dyck said.
However, if a student does decide to replace an old ID with a new photo ID, he will have a more positive identification card for check cashing, according to Warner Ferguson, associate director of the Kansas Union.
"I haven't seen the new IDs," Ferguson said, "but any ID that has a photo on it is a bigger help than one that doesn't."
Ferguson said that those with temporary DIs had been asked to provide additional identification when cashing checks at the Kansas University but that they were not required to present only temporary DIs until the photo cards were distributed.
ANOTHER BENEFIT of the new cards is that they will be delivered to students faster than the old IDs were, Dyck said.
Like the old plastic IDs, the new cards will have numbered magnetic strips on the backs that will be scanned by electronic equipment and entered into the Watson Library computer every time students check out books.
Clifford H. Haka, director of circulation at Watson Library, said that if one of the credit card-type IDs were stolen, the magnetic number on that card would not go from the computer's memory so that one could check out books with it.
