THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN VOL. 101, NO.54 THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANASA ANSAS STATE HISTORICAL SOCIETY TOPEKA, KS 68612 ADVERTISING: 864-4358 (0) THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8. 1990 NEWS:864-4810 Condom machines will be on campus By Jennifer Schultz Kansan staff writer Condoms will be available in KU residence hall hiving machines next semester, David Ambler, vice counselor for student affairs, said last night at a Student Senate meeting. The condoms will be sold in existing machines and should be in place by the beginning of the semester. The cost of the condoms has not been determined, Ambler said. He said mechanical adjustments to the machines and orders for the condensers would also be made before the end of this semester. The condors will be removed from the vending machines during the summer because mostly miners will live in the residence of the University. The University of Kansas has several camps during the summer. The Office of Student Affairs has been considering including the condens in residence hall for classes for years, Amber said. "No one is doing this lightly," want to be sensitive to that. We also want to encourage students to act responsibly." Ambier said the decision to make condoms available in residence halls was made informally by instructors in the last several weeks. Mike Schreiner, student body president, said he thought that Ambler chose to make the announcement at the Senate meeting because Senate played a vocal role in the issue. Last year Senate passed a resolution stating it wanted condonds to be distributed on campus and asked KU to study a condoun vending machine program used at the University of Minnesota "Student Senate has been pressuring the administration to do it for quite a while. Scherner said he felt that the authority to do anything about it." Schreiner said Ambler told him of the decision in a letter sent to him Nov. 1. According to Schreiner, said in the letter that the University discontinue distributing the condoms if the vending machines Senate opposes engineering fee Student Senate passed a resolution last night stating that Student Senate adamantly opposes a proposal that would charge engineering students a $15-a credit-hour fee. Kansan staff writer Bv Jennifer Schultz The resolution also requests that the School of Engineering consult and include engineering students and Senate in making decisions affecting students. Mike Schreiner, student body president, said the resolution would be sent to the Board of Regents The fee was proposed by the deans of engineering at the University of Kansas, Kansas State University and Wichita State University. The proposal, designed to help schools cover the cost of equipment used in engineering courses, will be presented to the Regents in November David Suroff, engineering senator, said, "If engineering equipment costs are going up, then raise our tuition gradually. But one school will always cost more to operate than others. Students should be able to choose their careers by interest and not what they can pay." "One of things I think (senators) ought to be sure about is that they are representing the engineering industry." But Carl Locke, dean of engineering, said the fee was necessary to finance needed equipment. Locke said 40 percent of the engineering schools in the nation charged engineers a special fee to maintain, operate and replace laboratory equipment. Schreiner said this was not the first time a restricted fee had been imposed on students. By Amy Zamierowski Kansan staff writer Dean sees no alternative to fee Although student senators are opposed to an equipment fee, the dean of engineering sees no alternative to retain the quality of the School of Engineering. "Without a substantial increase in funding to the school, we are going to degrade the quality of education," said Carl Locke, dean of engineering. "At this point, engineering equipment has been deployed by the state. We have been getting this fund from private sources, which is an uncertain source." Lucke said the fee was needed to repair and replace existing lab equipment, including compartment lamps. Locke said that although engineering senators passed a referendum against the fee, they did not propose other ways to guarantee the use of equipment and education in the school. David Suroff, engineering senator, said the senators needed to defeat the fce before they began working to find a solution to benefit legislators threatened to cut KU appropriations. Suroff said a concern was that a fee in one school could be as a president and create a new school. Locke said, "The fees may spread, but they may be needed. While students may think they are paying a lot for their tuition, it is lower than many schools." Brian Culliss, president of Engineering Student Council, said he opposed the fee because it would apply only to engineering students, and he hoped that the freshmen would freshen away from the engineering field Shaun Nicholson, co-president of an engineering fraternity, Tau Beta Pi, said he supported the fee because he saw the need to provide his students with opportunities of other means to finance the improvement. Pat Warren, Student Senate Executive Committee chairperson, said it was possible that in 1984-85 the Legislature would have reduced KU's budget by the amount the University raised through the fee. "I am one of the few students who support the fee," he said. some changes," he said. Schreiner also said the proposed engineering fee did not meet the Regents requirement to explore all other possibilities of financing before imposing restricted fees. He said one of those options would be for the money for the School of Q: What do part-time jobs with UPS and Jayhawk Basketball have in common? A: Together, they will take you to the Final Four!!

Coach anticipates a good season coming By Chris Oster "Last year was basically a season ... which our sophomore class got a year older," she said. "They went from being a couple of games under 500 as freshmen to 300 games as sophomores. That alone reflects the improvement of last season." Wednesday, November 7. 1990 / University Daily Kansan Women's basketball coach Marian Washington wants to put last season's 20-9 record in perspective. Kansan sportswriter Sophomores Kay Kay Hart, Terrilyn Johnson, and Shannon Bloxom were second, third, and fourth in minutes played for Kansas. Bloxom and Sophomore Danielle Shareef were second and fourth on the Kansas scoring chart, averaging 11.2 and 8 games per team. Jayhawks in rebounds with 7.9 a game and Hart was second on the team in assists with It is rare for a coach to put so much emphasis on a sophomore class. But the team's offense is one of the best in the league. "By the time they are seniors, we could be a very tough basketball team. Washua While the last year's sophomeres were a key to the season, they were far from alone in 2015. 78 Leading the Jayhawks in scoring and assists was senior Lisa Bradddy, who chipped in 13.6 points a game and 173 assists on the season. "She really had the most experience of any of our players," Washington said. "She is going to be added to the list of outstanding players who have played for the University of Kansas." Another senior, 6-foot 4 inch Lynn Page, added size to the Jayhawks' lineup. "I felt she was able to contribute well to last year's team," Washington said. "She seemed to find the enthusiasm she had her freshman year. See REVIEW, p. 13 1990-91 University of Kansas Women's Basketball Schedule November 15 AUSTRALIA JR.
