Condens will be available in KU residence hall vending machines next semester, David Ambler, vice chancellor 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 condoms would also be before the end of this semester.
The condoms will be removed from the vending machines during the summer because mostly minors will live in the residence number said. The University of Arkansas held several camps during the summer.
The Office of Student Affairs has been considering including the condoms in residence hall bathrooms for years, Ambler said.
"No one is doing this lightly."
want to be sensitive to that. We also want to encourage students to act responsibly "
Ambler 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 resourc-
statting it wanted condoms to be distributed on campus and asked KU to study a condom vending machine program used at the University of Minnesota.
"Student Senate has been presuring the administration to do it for quite a long time." Schreer said. "We don't authorize to do anything about it."
Schreiner said Ambler told him of the decision in a letter sent to him Nov 1 According to Schreiner Ambler said in the letter that he discontinue distributing the condoms if the vending machines
Senate opposes engineering fee
By Jennifer Schultz
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
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."
But Carl Locke, dean of engineering, said the fee was necessary to finance needed equipment.
"One of things I think (senators) ought to be sure about is that they are representing the engineering community."
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

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 is not being funded by the state. We have been doing very poorly with private sources, which is an uncertain source."
Locke said the fee was needed to repair and replace existing lab equipment, including com-
Locke said that although engineering senators passed a referendum against the fee, they did not propose other ways to guarantee the equipment and education in the school.
David Suroff, engineering senator, said the
senators needed to defeat the fee before they began working to find a solution to benefit
Suroff said a concern was that a fee in one school could set a precedent and create a rule for others.
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 not to other students. He freshmen away from the engineer field
legislators threatened to cut KU appropriations.
ShauN Nicholson, co-president of an engineering fraternity, Tau Beta Pi, said he supported the fee because he saw the need to increase the number of students of other means to finance the improvements.

legislators threatened to cut KU appropriations. 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.
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.

Unknowns made a statement on the court
By Chris Oster
After a Jeff Gueldner desperation jumper was blocked, and the 1989-90 basketball season ended with a 71-70 loss to UCLA, it was hard to remember just how incredible a season it had been for the 30-5 Jawhaves.
Kansan sportswriter
"It was tough to get over that game." forward Mark Randall recalled recently. "It took me about two or three weeks to get over the fact that we had lost. After that, I think everybody looked back and realized that we had a successful season.
"If you would have said before the season that we would end up 30-5, I don't think anybody would have believed you," he said.
Kansas started its season by defeating Alabama-Birmingham, Louisiana State, UNLV, and St. John's to capture the Presence Dome VIV at the time. Louise Dorman VIV at the time would end two teams in the nation. UNLV would end its season as national champion.
After taking the NIT, the Jayhawks not only were ranked, but had leapt onto the
Little was known about the 1988 edition of the Kansas basketball team before the start of the season. Publications had picked the Jayhawks to finish anywhere from fourth to eighth in the Big Eight Conference, and a national ranking was not to be heard.
Randall said the team knee they would be a force, despite what the polls said at the time. "It was the best," he said.
That changed quickly when the Jayhawks took to the court.
"I'm not going to say we were surprised by our start," he said. "We knew we had a lot of experience. We had guys who had worked with us, and we had a matter of how well we came together."

They came together quite well, thank you.
For the next 14 weeks, Kansas' ranking never fell below the No. 2 spot. Four of those weeks were spent as the No. 1 team in the nation.
Four victories after the NIT and a record of 8-0, Kansas was set to play host to its traditional rival, Kentucky, with first-year Dick Pitton bringing in his fast-paced efface
Four school records dropped in the 150-95 defeat of Kentucky. Kansas scored more points in a half (80 in the first), more points in a game (150), more field goals (52), and more assists (36) in that game than had any team in Kansas history.
The dream season continued as the Jayhawks pushed their season-long win against the Nets, and the
