Non-traditional students regroup
By Lara Weber
Kansan staff writer
Non-traditional students have been dealing with some "non-traditional" organizational problems since the spring, but members say they are ready to get on with new plans.
Suzanna Vazquez was elected chairman, it was determined that the election had been in violation of the group's by-laws. In a second election, Helen Krische Dee was elected chairman.

In order to disassociate itself from the problems it has experienced, the group said it would like to adopt a new name. Members are planning to discuss the idea with Carl Damon. Senate treasurer, to ensure that they still would receive Senate funds under a new name.
A non-traditional student is defined by Student Senate as "any undergraduate student who is older than 24 years of age, is married, is a parent, has an education more than 10 miles to the University."
The Non-Traditional Students Organization, which received funds from Senate, fell apart after its founder, Ben Carson, printed an election dispute.
However, Vazquez and Krische Deen both believed they had been elected chairman, and neither would agree to give up the post.
After the April 24 election, in which'
The organizers said they were optimistic about starting a new group for non-traditional students.
The organization sought Senate's assistance.
"We know there's a need if we can find the right combination of things to offer people," Marshall said.
Senate leaders reviewed the organization's by-laws and determined they were invalid. Technically, this would have caused the group to lose its funds allocated by Senate. But, in response, senators continued involvement, Senate agreed to freeze the group's funds until a solution could be reached.
Jeff. Morris, student body vice president, worked with the non-traditional students throughout the summer and into this semester helping them to reorganize.
Morris said that during the summer they wrote new by-laws.
Morris said the group received an ultimatum from Senate.
"We told them, 'We can work with you to solve these problems or you'll lose your funding,' "' he said.
Krische Dee said the purpose of the new organization would be to let other non-traditional students know there was a group for them on campus.
Three non-traditional students, including Krische Dee, meet last night with Morris and William Sanders, Student Executive Committee chairman, to discuss plans for restructuring an organization for non-traditional students. A faculty adviser for the former Non-Traditional Students Organization,
The University should adopt scientific misconduct review guidelines developed in accordance with the Department of Health and Human Services specifications, the grievance review task force was told last night.
By Doug Fishback Kansan staff writer
Carolyn Cross, assistant to the vice chancellor for research, graduate studies and public service, said the primary grievance procedure for scientific research involving federal grant money should be the one a Faculty Senate committee derived from federal guidelines.
KU advised to amend misconduct guidelines
The Senate committee had reviewed University scientific misconduct procedures and had devised a new code of conduct within federal guidelines, she said.
Cross said the Department of Health and Human Services had called upon universities receiving federal scientific research money to submit a verification of their commitment to conduct misconduct guidelines by Nov. 8.
The normal University grievance procedure should be used only as an appellate process, she said.
Cross said the University Senate
had adopted the changes last year.
had adopted the changes last year. The first change defined scientific mounth.
The second change inserted a section into the University rules and regulations to define "faculty" as all elements of the University population, such as as scientific misconduct policies were contained, Cross said.
The third change recognized the applicability of misconduct rules handed down by external financing organizations, such as the federal government, Cross said.
In other business, Hector Clark,
associate professor of mechanical
engineering, criticized University
regulations that specified that the
chairman of the judicial board should
be a member of the legal profession.
Clark said faculty and students were capable of conducting grievance hearings.
"I find that quite offensive and unacceptable." he said.
James Muir, graduate student representative to the task force, disagreed with Clark, saying it would be inappropriate for someone without legal standing to chair judicial hearing boards.
"There has to be some basis for knowledge," Muir said.
Music provides healing therapy
By Jennifer Reynolds Kansan staff writer
Their aim is to improve the quality of life. The device they use to reach this goal is music.
"Music therapy'takes something that is already a part of someone's life and uses it to help them," said Lisa Meiman, Ft. Collins, Colo., senior. "Music therapy is tied closely with psychology because you're trying to determine people's behavior."
She said that music was good therapy because it already played a major role in people's lives.
"Music is very important to people," Meiman said. "The first thing you do when you get home from class is turn on the radio."
After she graduates, Meiman hopes to work with the visually impaired, probably in a state institution.
"I also am interested in working with the terminally ill," she said. "Music is most often used as an additional form of treatment."
The research began in January 1987 at the Veterans Administration Medical Center in Topeka.
Meiman said that research in music therapy was constantly growing.
Alicia Clair, professor of music therapy, is conducting research with patients suffering from Alzheimer's disease.
"We're trying to find ways to discover residual skills in Alzheimer's patients who are already hospitalized and cannot be cared for at home," Clair said.
"This is very important for the quality of life," she said. "If we can bring them out of confusion and into reality for even a few seconds, it is very important to them and to their families."
Clair uses rhythm instruments and singing to help the patients reach reality.
Clair said that some of the patients could sing, others could play a drum, and others would simply make eye contact and focus on the musician.
"Alzheimer's patients suffer a loss of brain tissue and have serious brain damage," she said. "Music may connect in a place or in a way in the brain that other things don't."
Clair also helps teach the spouses of the patients how do the therapy exercises.
"If they can involve themselves it is very important," she said.
