Paper chases awav non-law students
By CYNTHIA HRENCHIR Staff Reporter
As the KU student busily helps his homework in the new Green Hall Law Library, a staff member quietly arranges the desks on the table beside him and walked away.
: The slip was a reminder that the student had to leave unless he was using the library's legal materials, a laptop is also placed at the library entrance.
"You are free to use the library as long as you use our materials," Mary Burchell, staff member, said recently. The school, of the law school, school but were.
"This is a working library, not passive," he said. "It's not for everyone on campus or in town to study at." "It was the reason for the limitation we faced."
"There are only 358 work places in the library," he said. "That will seat 65 percent of the students who attend the
law school. That 65 percent can be seated as remuneration by law."
Two types of seating are available at the library. Tables are arranged throughout the stacks on all five floors and tables on the walls on all but the second level.
THESE CARLETS are checked out to individual law students as a place to keep their books and materials, and comprisse a reserved study area.
"They are unavailable for general use. There aren't even enough of them for each student here to have one." They are assigned each year by a lottery."
The library's collection of 170,000 volumes adds to the problem.
"Most of the books do not circulate." Burlish said, "which means that the students have to use them here. That is the reason we have such long hours."
The law school is able to impose this off-limits rule because a 1974 agreement from the jurisdiction of a library from the University library system to the law university.
"Funds for the law school come directly out of our budget," Davis said. "It's part of our school. Funding comes through the university and the law school and then to the library."
BUT EVEN WITH the rule, and the white slips of paper the staff hands out, students who don't use legal materials still come to the library to study.
"It's the closest place that's open for long hours," Peter Hampton, Topsfield, Maine, graduate student, said. Hampton lives at McColum Hall, one of several residence halls near the library.
"Last year during a class, I took a tour," Hampton said. "When I saw how nice it was, I decided to study there."
"I like to study there because the people are there to study. The air conditioning and heating are always good, and the atmosphere is clean."
Dave Dingee, Walkil, N.Y., graduate student, and resident of McCollum, also studies regularly at the law library.
"Since I came here to start graduate studies this fall, I've been studying there," he said.
DINGEE IS TAKING a business law course and at times does make use of the library's legal materials. He likes the off-limits policy.
"It's close to McCollum, quiet and clean. Watson's all cluttered."
"It's good that it's only for serious students," he said. "Besides, I applied to the law school and paid the application fee, so that's my rent."
Dingee said, however, he had given up his saat in a carrel a few times when asked.
"If someone wants the seat, I get up. No problem," she said.
Jim Borelli, Overland Park first-year law student, said that he didn't study much at Green.
"A lot of times when I do, I have a real problem trying to find a space," he said.
Robert Holcomb, Manhattan second-year law student, said he had a seen lot of undergraduates attempting to pretend they were law students.
"They pull out some law book," he said, "and put an accounting book right by it."

Regents Center will advertise
By STEVE ROBRAHN Staff Reporter
Staff Reporter
Joining the ranks of diesel truck driving schools, bartending academies and computer programming institutes, the University of Kansas will begin a television advertising campaign in December.
"We're not calling it advertising," Bob Burdick, associate director of University Relations, said yesterday. "We're not public information announcements."
Burdick said the University planned to purchase commercial time on two Kansas City television stations to inform people about programs offered at the KU Regents Center in Overland Park.
Enrollment at the Regents Center was down by more than 300 students this fall and could have prompted the campaign, which will be the first series of television commercials that the University has ever run.
"This wasn't really in response to the enrollment decline," Burdick said. "We've done a number of things to increase awareness about the Regents Center."
IN THE PAST, KU has mailed brochures and placed advertisements in several newspapers in the Kansas City metropolitan area, he said.
"But we felt as if we should do something more," Burdick said. "We thought it was time to test television and see how effective it was."
advertised on television, he said, in addition to the University of Missouri.
Both Johnson County and Kansas City, Kan., community colleges have
"The spots will be tasteful done and, will reflect the integrity of the institution. They won't, in any way, be flashy or splashy."
The participants were chosen by their schools as leaders of today and tornowr, Sherwood said. Two students who represented Northeast Nebraska Technical Community College in Norfolk, Neb., said they thought the conference was worthwhile.
"The indications from those schools were that television was fairly effective," Burdick said, "and we thought we might try it."
Cobb spoke to about 130 students who participated in the Kansas-Nebraska Educational Consortium Students Leadership Conference, which began yesterday and will continue until noon today.
from both community and four-year colleges to attend the conference to develop their leadership skills, teach them leadership skills, helped coordinate the conference.
The students paid about $15 to attend the conference, which is held annually at different schools in Kansas and Nebraska. Sherwood
The office of academic affairs has made available $10,000 for the television commercials, he said. The commercials will be aired during a two-month period in December prior to Region 5 enrollment, scheduled for Jan. 5 and 6.
"I want to emphasize that we're not out scraping for students, necessarily." Burdick said. "The overwhelming majority of people go to the Regents Center for graduate programs. This is to let people know that the alternative is there and if they want to take it, then they can.
"The key to being a campus leader is to keep those memories ever fresh in your mind." Cobb said. "Maintain the memory of service to what your convictions are."
"I thought it would be kind of boring, but it hasn't been," said Melody Hilmer.
Cobb spoke during a dinner for the students and said it was important for campus leaders to speak out about their "latent convictions."
The commercials will be simple and not highly produced, Burdick said. Some of the spots will run during the 6 and 10 p.m. newscasts. Others will be aired early in the morning and late at night, he said.
UNIVERSITY RELATIONS will produce this report, but the said university has not been given the right to do so.
"But you have to spend some time thinking about what your latent convictions are," Cobb said.
Campus leaders should remember the hard times they had when they were freshmen to do a good job of helping the students they lead, Robert Cobb, executive vice chancellor, said yesterday.
Janet Blide said, "You may not use them (the lectures) for the rest of your life, but they were good."
Mary Gersh, director of the Regents Center, said she was pleased about the University's decision to run the announcements.

Leaders should recall past
by O. Newton King R.Ph.
"You should recall times in your dim dark past when you entered college for the first time and remember those anxieties in order to be of some service to those who follow you."
The students came from Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri and Oklahoma
What should you do when you have the flu? You will probably have a fever, sometimes as high as 103*, body aches, a runny nose, scratchy throat and general discomfort. As long as the fever lasts, take aspirin or acetamiphen (Tyleno) every four hours and drink plenty of fluids. A fever tends to dehydrate the body. As a result, additional fluids are necessary. An extra quart of fluid a day per degree of fever is recommended. You probably won't feel up to par for a week. If the fever lasts for more than two days, consult a physician.
HANDY HINT:
Gargling with salt water can relieve the pain of minor sore throats.
