Photo exhibit spurs sensitivity

Kansan staff writer
The "I Dream a World" photo exhibit in the Spencer Museum of Art has spurred efforts to create a multicultural approach to education at KU, said Del Brinkman, vice chancellor for academic affairs.
At a reception Saturday at the Kansas Union Ballroom, KU officials said fund raising to establish a chair-person in social justice would begin immediately. The chairperson would coordinate faculty programs and departments provide a multi-cultural education.
"The purpose of the chair is to foster an appreciation of human diversity and to enhance sensitivity that involve the world," Brinkman said.
The appointed chairperson would develop new courses and broaden the human-relations aspect of the curriculum.
Brinkman and Del Shankel,
interim executive vice chancellor,
welcomed more than 150 faculty
and staff to participate in the
department and tours of the photo exhibit.
Pulitzer Prize-winning photogra pher.
The exhibit recognizes the contributions of Black women in history through photos by Brian Lanker, a
Gloria Randle Scott, president of Bennett College in Greensboro, N.C. is one of the 75 women featured in the photo series. In a videotaped message, Scott told guests at the reception that Lanker's photos had been a major contribution to the United States.
Scott said that historically, women had pursued changes in society.
"As each woman found her own place and time to make a stand to change America, so must you," she said.
KU, Hiratsuka summer exchange planned
Kansan staff report
Next summer, the Office of Study Abroad will offer a summer program in Hiratsuka. Lawrence's new Japanese sister city.
Anne Wilcox, program assistant in the office, said the University of Kansas and Kanagawa University, which is in Hiratsuka, were preparing their first exchange program.
The program will last four to six weeks, and participants can earn up to six hours of non-Western culture credits, she said.
The office recently conducted a survey in Japanese and East Asian languages and cultures classes that showed at least 86 students were
interested in the program and that 30 students definitely would join the program, Wilcox said.
The office is working to offer a semester-long program for Fall 1991. KU has academic exchange programs with two other Japanese universities: Fukuoka University and Sophia University.
