"It's like studying at Wescow; you block out all of the noise when you want to." Stephane said. "And the coffee is better than at Wescow."
STEPHAN2, A cellular biology major, and didelman, a mathematics and French major, said they rarely got more than five hours of sleep a night.
11 we get five hours, we're doing good," Stephan said. "Freshmen come up to me and they tell me they don't like coffee.
"They'll learn. Boy, will they learn."
Iderman said coffee was not the only thing keeping him going, however. He also has a mental strategy convincing him to keep studying, he said.
Tom Stockton, manager of Sambo's, said that when he began as manager a year ago, he invited students to study there.
"I tell myself that vacation is just a few weeks away and that if I can make it till then, I can catch up on some sleep," he said.
"THEY HELP us out by buying food and we help them out by providing a good atmosphere to study in," he said.
However, Stockton said the
During finals week, Stockton said students drink a lot more coffee and stay a little longer.
"If they all just came in and had coffee, it just wouldn't work," he said.
"At finals time, you can come in here with your eyes closed and you'll think that no one's in here—it's so quiet," he said.
"Also at finals time, our water bill is higher from all the commodes flushing."
In contrast to most other late-nighters, most of the students in Gordon Wittenberg design studio they could stay up all night without coffee or other caffeine substances. Wittenberg is an assistant professor of architecture and urban design.

More than half of the class members were at the studio in Marvin Hall at 2 a.m. one Friday and most of them said they had been working night on a project due that day.
"I like night studying," Pohman said. "I get睡perier during the day, but atnight it's like our own little society uphere."
Other spots where students said they liked to study included the Lutheran Student Center, 401W. 10th St., residence hall, and the library, and that old stand-by—the dorm rooms.
Health, safety rules make maintenance a never-ending job
Keeping KU buildings and equipment in compliance with state health and safety standards is a never-ending job, according to Harry Kreider, assistant director of preventive maintenance for Facilities Operations.
"Most of our equipment is old enough that it doesn't come up to today's standards."
The violations consisted mainly of machinery without the proper safety guards.
"Our intent is to get these things so they won't be a hassle five or 10 years from now."

Kreider also encourages FO employees to look for violations on their own.
County plans corrections reform
THE DEPARTMENT of Human Resources allowed Kreider to make his own timetable for taking care of the infractions, which required to submit reports periodically.

The new law, the Community Corrections Act, authorizes the secretary of corrections to provide grants to counties in Kansas for instituting corrections programs.
Douglas County officials are planning participation in a new law passed by the Kansas Legislature that would make significant changes in corrections.
Counties participate on a voluntary basis. A county must have a population of 30,000, or if one or two participate together, a combined population of 20,000.
The programs would be directed toward nonviolent offenders, allowing them to
"We can make unannounced inspections, but we don't like to do that," he says.

THE INSTITUTE of Public Affairs will present a seminar on community corrections Nov. 8 and 9 at the Kansas Union. The seminar will inform the public about provisions of the Community Corrections Act.
"The law changes corrections policy direction from prison to community orientation," said Michael Ahrerm, director of the Department of Affairs, a division of Continuing Education.
"These programs are to keep people out of prison," Forrest Saw, assistant professor of social welfare, said. "The programs were designed to help prevent probations and fines, an employment service and supervised group living. There also could be counseling from mental health specialists."
Under the act, counties that want to participate must form planning committees headed by the County Commission. Justices, enforcement officials, health-care professionals, and if necessary, health-care professionals would help the commission adopt a comprehensive plan for
the development of community correctional services.
COUNTIES ARE not qualified to receive grants until their comprehensive plans have been approved by the secretary of corrections.
Salaries for professional personnel would be provided by the grant authorized to the
Counties are given broad authority to carry out the provisions of their comprehensive plans. They may acquire property, employ persons and make grants to nonprofit organizations to improve county correctional services.
State Rep. Pat Hurley, D-Leavenworth, said it took about a year to plan and carry through a complete corrections program in a community.
"INSTEAD OF POURING all of the state money into a $17-million brick-and-mortar structure and adding to the property tax by increasing the state money into the community," Hurley said.

"But community corrections is one more step in the direct de-institutionalizing. The problems start in he community and they come back to the community. The act will make the effort to make offenders deal with the community, not separated from it."
