Voice given to students in B-School
Students in the School of Business will soon have a voice, though not a vote, in policymaking in their school.
The Undergraduate Affairs Committee, a policy-making body formerly composed of eight elected faculty members from the Business School, has asked that eight students be nominated to serve in an advisory capacity on the committee, announced Richard Polley, assistant professor of business and chairman of the committee. The students will be named by the Business Student Council.
The student representatives will attend the committee meetings on an unrestricted basis. However, they have no vote.
The committee rules curriculum changes, sets up new programs, grants honors and awards, and acts as a board of review for petitioning students.
Pollay said the inclusion of the students on the body came not as a result of a crisis but as a result of "a concern for the student and a recognition of the legitimacy of student representation."
The student representatives "will have a major influence on the committee." Polley said, adding that the idea was greeted with enthusiasm by faculty on the committee.
Subcommittees of the main body are now working on next fall's curriculum. The students will be included on these committees.
A vote of the entire Business School faculty would be required to allow student representatives to vote on committee business.
KU students asked to support Swan
Bob Swan, Democratic candidate for the Second District, last night asked KU students to help in his campaign to end the war in Vietnam.
Swan, speaking here to about 25 persons, said, "I'm a peace candidate right in the heart of American conservatism. I think it's very symbolic."
He contended the encouraging response to his campaign was largely because of the Vietnam conflict. "Students now are much more politically aware," he said.
Pat Lewis, Mission senior and a representative of the old Kennedy organization, attended the meeting and supported Swan.
"I feel the necessity of getting those views into Congress. His principles are important," she said.
Ward Byers, Kansas City, Kan., sophomore, and a former McCarthy campaigner, also attended the meeting and said he supported Swan because "the important thing is stopping the war—the man himself isn't important."

Registrations are now being accepted in the KU-Y office in the Kansas Union for the third annual KU-Y Freshman Camp, Rita Matousek, Cuba, Kan., junior and co-chairman of the steering committee for the event, said.
The theme of this year's camp,
"Isn't It Time to Be Aware?"
will emphasize each student's
knowing his position on personal
and social issues, Miss Matousek
explained.
To date, she said, approximately 20 freshmen have "expressed an interest" in attending the camp Oct. 26 and 27 at the Kiwanis Youth Camp on Lake Shawnee near Topeka.
The camp also will give freshmen the chance to meet faculty members, upperclassmen, and other freshmen.
"We at least want them to realize there are other things besides themselves," she said.
Three panel discussions will highlight the two-day event. Panel members will represent faculty, administration, students, the campus ministry and persons outside the University community.
According to the brochure, the discussion topics will be, "How Am I Prejudiced?", "Does My Student Number Have a VOICE?" and "Who Shall I Turn To?"
Registration fee for the camp is $10. The deadline for registration is Oct. 18, '

Prof gets $14,339 grant
A KU assistant professor of psychology, received a $14,339 grant from the U U.S. Public Health Service to pursue his research on suicide.
Charles Neuringer will work on the project which is being conducted at the Los Angeles Suicide Prevention Center. He commutes to the center at least twice a month.
This is the tenth year he has researched in this area. From a 1966 study, he found that the traditional view of suicidal individuals is false.
"It was thought that people who committed suicide had a negative attitude toward life. However, on a test used to measure value systems, suicidal individuals rated life as more positive than otherwise emotionally disturbed and normal individuals," he said.
Suicidal people think life should be blissful ecstasy, Neuringer said.
"There is an irreconcilable gap between real and ideal life for them, and they can't function," he said.
