It's up to instructor about going to class
By Stacy Smith Kansan staff writer
Attendance policies in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences vary among classes and instructors.
Although the code on absences in the undergraduate catalogue states that there is no system of permissible absences and that students are expected to attend all classes, there is no uniform attendance policy within the college.
"I really think the notion of leaving it up to the faculty member is the best way to proceed," said Dave Shulenburger, vice chancellor for academic affairs. "There are some courses in which the professor can't accomplish what he or she wishes unless there's regular attendance."
Shulenburger said that instructors should clearly outline their attention to each semester so that students know what is expected of them. However,
"I'm sure they improve attendance, but the real question is if they improve learning," he said.
he said he wasn't sure how effective attendance policies were.
Kurt Dickuck, Rockport, Mo., senior, said he thought the mandatory attendance policies were generally fair, although the instructors often took situations to the extreme. He said that one student in his Spanish class had been in a car accident and that the instructor would not accept his late homework without proof from an insurance company that there really had been an accident.
"That's ridiculous," Dicktum said. "I think attendance policies are pretty fair, but I think in Spanish they're a little too strict."
Ray Hiner, professor of history, said he did not require mandatory attendance in any of his undergraduate courses. He said he would not favor a uniform policy for the dart-
"My main concern is that they do well on the test. If the class is valuable and necessary for their learning, then they will usually come," he said. "At this stage in their academic career, I think they can decide what is important for their education."
ment.
Philip Montgomery, associate professor of math, said he also would not favor a uniform attendance policy. He said he had never had an attendance policy and didn't know any math professor who did.
"Students are adults and they should be treated like adults," Montgomery said. "There would be more people there, but I don't know if that would change anything."
Jeanne Klein, assistant professor of theater and film, said attendance was a vital part of her classes. Students in her classes have their grade dropped one-third for every absence after the first three. She said
the only excuses she accepted were extreme illness or a death in the family.
"If people are skipping a class that much, there's probably something wrong with the class."
"They have to be act-of-god absences," Klein said. "You just can't skip classes in theater. If you're not there, you mist the experience."
Matt Abrams, Chicago freshman,
said he had strict attendance policies
in his English and Spanish classes.
He said his grade would be lowered a
percentage point in each class after
three absences.
Although Abrams said he still would attend class regularly without mandatory attendance, the strict policies were good for those students.
"I think they have to be strict, because I'd say the majority of students would blow off more classes if they didn't have to be there," he said.
KU students revive local multiple sclerosis drive
By Jennifer Metz Kansan staff writer
A KU chapter of Students Against Multiple Sclerosis has been reorganized this year.
"I think the KU campus is a prime area for this type of program," said Shane Langston, special events coordinator for the eastern Kansas chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
Last year, the campaign went into hibernation because the executive directors of the eastern Kansas chapter changed, Langston said. This will be the fifth year KU has participated in the campaign, which was designed seven years ago as a two-part program.
The program, SAMS, includes a fund-raising campaign and a public awareness program aimed at college students, Langston said. Money is raised by student groups for patient services such as wheel chairs, braces and medical bills.
SAMS also provides educational awareness programs for students, Langston said.
Multiple sclerosis is a chronic, progressive disease of the central nervous system which affects more than 250,000 Americans. It strikes most often in people 18 to 40 years of age. Langton said.
He said that traditionally KU students had strongly supported the program.
as a public relations committee, a business committee and an education committee.
"We want to build up our committees so that they'll continue every year," she said. "We want to get a lot of people to do the small things and build from the bottom up."
Fund-raising activities planned for the year include a balloon launch, a Rock-Alike lip-sync and a skip-a-meal program, she said.
Klein said the KU SAMS group hoped to raise $10,000 this year.
