ASK plans Margin push
By Jennifer Schultz
Students should take immediate action if they hope to secure financing for KU's future, the student body president said yesterday.
"This is a crucial year for KU," said Mike Schreiner, student body president. "We are going to see a lot of funding problems. The only way to turn that around is student involvement. In 1887, KU faced a similar situation and students came out in incredible waves for higher education."
Kansan staff writer
Mike Schreiner spoke at the Associated Students of Kansas orientation meeting at the International Room in the Kansas Union.
He said many students did not realize how bad KU's financial situation could become.
"K-State is already facing these problems," he said "Students are being away away from classes because they have enough teachers to teach them."
Greg Hughes, ASK director, said KU students should voice their concerns or the University would lose groups funded by the Margin of Excellence.
The Margin was the Board of Regents three-year plan to bring the total financing of its seven institutions to 95 percent of their peer schools and to bring faculty salaries to 100 percent of their peers. The
"Legislators don't realize how overcrowded classes are, how bad add/drop is, and how underpaid teachers are," he said.
Twenty people attended last night's meeting. Hughes said about 150 students had shown interest in ASK this fall.
Legislature financed the first two years but not the third.
"This year the advisory board will research and formulate policy decisions for ASK, along with research on how to manage new policies for next year." he said.
Hughes said these policy decisions would be given to the five-member policy council, which would present them at the state level.
Assembly approves curricula

The College Assembly of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences introduced new faculty members and approved changes in curricula yesterday in its first meeting of the semester.
The meeting, which took place in Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union, was attended by about 50 of students and graduate students on the Council.

body of the college, according to yesterday's assembly agenda. It formulates rules, regulations and policies for the college.
Yesterday, 36 new faculty members were introduced to the assembly Changes in course and prerequisites also were approved.
In the past few semesters, student participation in the assembly has waned.

automatically elected. However, a supplemental election to fill the rest of the seats will not be held this year unless a controversial issue arises
Attendance at assembly meetings also has been low, Hall said.
James Muyksen, dean of the college, said that the low student participation in the assembly could imply that student representatives, who met with the agenda before the assembly, were satisfied with the agenda.
Dan Owens, Overland Park sophomore, is one of the assembly members who attended the meeting yesterday. Owens said he blamed the low turnout on students who did not think they could make differences.
Lawvers to help reservists prepare
Kansan staff report
The Kansas Bar Association introduced a program yesterday that will provide free legal service for military reservists put on active duty because of the crisis in the Persian Gulf.
The program, dubbed "Project Call-Up," will match reservists with participating lawyers in or near the reservists' hometowns.
Lt. Col. N. Trip Shawer, project coordinator, said that 271 lawyers in Kansas had volunteered for the program.
"What we're trying to do is respond
to the possibility that some of our reservists will be called to active duty," he said.
Shawer said lawyers would aid reservoirs in preparing or updating simple wills and power-of-attorney documents.
A simple will is a will that does not include trust provisions, Shawver said. A power of attorney is a document that allows a person to perform functions for the reservist, such as taking care of someone else that someone else can take care of the reservist's business while he or she is on active duty.
The military provides these legal services to active-duty members and to reservists in special circumstances such as the Persian Gulf crisis. But it is often inconvenient for a reservoir to drive to a base to have reservoirs installed. A new program will allow reservists to receive legal services closer to home.
The Project Call-Up telephone number is 913-234-5819. Hours are a.m. to 5 p.m.
To be eligible for the service, a reservist must have orders sending him or her on active duty, Shawver said.
