Carlin investigates Med Center case
KANSAS CITY, Kan.—A secretary in the affirmative action office at the University of Kansas Medical Center alleged Wednesday that she discriminated against her when it failed to promote her this month.
The secretary, Mikki Townsend,
asked Gov. John Carlin to investigate
the matter during Carlin's visit to
the Med Center Wednesday.
Carl Eberhard, personnel officer in charge of classification at the Med Center, said he was unaware of Townsend's allegations.
An aide to Carlin said yesterday that Carlin's office was investigating the allegation.

Seniors can let University officials know what they think of their experiences at the University of Kansas and that the university last week from Institutional Research.
"I think we find that seniors especially possess very interesting and especially reliable thoughts about the educational process," Jerry Hutchison, associate vice chancellor for Academic Affairs, said yesterday.
"Some have been here for more years than they care to admit," he said.

The survey was sent to the 2,178
The survey asks questions about four areas:
- Basic data, such as the student's major
- General experiences at KU, such as the number of courses in the student's major.
- in. Questions on the student's satisfaction with different University services, such as financial aid and student employment.
- Progress in general areas, such as the student's ability to understand
1. a survey is the best way to find out
At smaller schools, administrators interview each graduating student, Cobb said, but there are too many seniors at KU to interview them individually.
what students think of a university the size of KU, Robert Cobb, executive vice chancellor, said.
When the survey has been analyzed, Institutional Research will send the results to the vice chancellors, who will help them to improve programs in their areas.
"There is no specific use designated for that questionnaire for us," Hutchinson said.
David Ambler, vice chancellor for Student Affairs, said his office would
use the survey information to further investigate student services' needs.
"The study, unfortunately, can't go into a lot of depth" he said. "It just tells you what they didn't like."
But he said that the survey results were a good place to start to develop more in-depth surveys, such as a student opinion survey, that would measure the reasons that students did not like certain services.
"You put it all together and it helps give you a much better picture of areas where we need to improve our service," he said.
The survey is confidential, Cobb said in a cover letter that accompanies the survey.
Student L.D. numbers are requested so Institutional Research can check names off a mailing list as questionnaires are returned, he said.
The numbers are not to be used to identify the student with his responses.
It is important to the accuracy of the study that a high percentage of seniors return their surveys, Teeter said.
To get back as many surveys as possible, Institutional Research will send a second mailing in two weeks to a colleague who returned the first survey. Teeter said.
The last senior survey was done in 1977, she said, but it will be done more frequently from now on.

AN EYE-CATCHING EXAMPLE OF JUDICIAL GERRYMANDERING
to gerrymander, the dictionary tells us, is "to divide an idea into political units in an unnatural and unfair way with the purpose of giving special advantages to one group." Although gerrymander originated in the political realm, our increasingly creative judiciary has appropriated the practical and symbolic ways that it uses its decisions when a decision is reached which assists uneasy importance to one element of a dispute "for the purpose of giving" one litigant "special advantages."
U. S. District Judge Miles Lord, a concerned Minnesota, recently engaged in some judicial gerrymandering while adjudicating a suit filed against the University of Minnesota by one Mark Hall. After having been declared academically ineligible his senior year, Mr. Hall, a three-year starter for the Minnesota basketball team, claimed that his loss of eligibility would substantially damage his chances of a professional career.
Judge Lord ordered Mr. Lord hallettened because he had been recruited "to be a basketball player, not a scholar." In his ruling Judge Lord noted that it "may well be true that a good academic program for the athlete is made virtually impossible by the demands of their sport at the college level." Judge resolved to have the university take action, but this situation is harming to the university, it because they have fostered it and the institution rather than the individual should suffer the consequences."
judge Lord accorded "undue importance" to the plaintiff's athletic pursuits "for the purpose of giving" (him), "special advantages," namely the privilege of representing a state university in intercollegiate athletics without meeting that university's minimum academic standards. By contemporary criteria this is truly judicial gerrymandering of the highest quality; however, at least some of those watching respectfully from the periphyte feel that the best is yet to come.
