The Student Assistance Center will conduct workshops this semester to help students improve study habits, learn to use KU's resources and feel more comfortable in new social settings.
Sessions help students cope
The workshops will be offered in two series: one at 7 p.m. Tuesdays in 4012 Wescoe Hall, the other at 7 p.m. Wednesdays in 300 Strong Hall
Workshops offered include Savvy, a how-to workshop for new students, Listening and Notetaking, Time Management, and Taking Control of Calculus and Preparing for Exams, said Linda Marshall, assistant director of the center.
Workshops are open to all students and are offered at no charge except the Reading for Comprehension and Speed workshop, which costs $17.
Movie on the Hill airs tonight
Kansan staff report
Marsall said Listening and Notetaking was one of most popular and helpful workstations.
"Students don't have to sign up for the workshops," she said. "Just come when they are offered. Our workshops are helpful at any grade level. We've had freshmen and graduate students attend the same workshops. All students are invited to attend."

Anita Bajaj, SUA president, said she expected about 1,000 students to attend. SUA will give free insulated holders to the first 800 to arrive.

SUA also plans to distribute free soft drinks and Baby Ruth candy bars, and KJHK will provide music from the movie, which begins at dusk.
A free showing of "Caddyshack" will kick off Student Union Activities fall film series at the second annual meeting. Attendance will be on the hill in front of the cappuccino.
"Movie on the Hill is one of our biggest events," Baaji said. "It's a neat way for new students and students coming back to KU to mingle and get to know each other. It's a fun, quiet event that's free."
SUA begins its regular showing of films Sept. 4 with the animated feature "All Dogs Go to Heaven."
Weekend feature films usually cost more, with some costing as much as $750, said Marc Parillo, SUA feature films coordinator. The feature films
Two SUA committees choose movies for the semester, the spectrum films committee and the feature films committee. Spectrum films are shown Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights and Saturday afternoons. Feature films are shown on weekend nights.
"What we try to do with the spectrum films is include a broad range of classic, foreign, and cult films. We've come up with a good cross of films," said Tara May, SUA spectrum films coordinator.
"We knew what we were shooting for, and we didn't want movies that were too obsure or too mainstream," she said. "Then we contacted agents who distribute films and compare them to our budget."
He said SUA tried to select movies before they were released on video, although such films were more expensive to screen.
committee's budget is about $20,000.
"We have to look at what the students want," Parliol said. "KU likes controversy films."
This year's film schedule includes John Water's "Pink Flamingos" and Andy Warhol's "Bad," along with a wide array of foreign and cult films.
"We want students to understand that going to the SUA movies is not like going to the Dickinson." May said. "Going to see a film at the Union is a unique experience because it's all student run and organized."
May and Parillo said their committees wanted to increase attendance levels this year by choosing films that students wanted to see.
Attendance runs from fewer than 10 people for the more obscure films to more than 200 for some of the popular midnight features, May said.

Bars cater to music interests
Kansan staff writer
Lawrence night club owners are making it easy to get into the swing of things when looking for local entertainment. For a nominee, they are now catering to fun seekers of every age and musical preference.
"Dance bars are on the comeback," said Kelly Driscoll, owner of the Mad Hatter, 700 New Hampshire St. "The sports bars had their day. Now people want you to entertain them and give them the opportunity to entertain themselves. People aren't drinking as much today so you can't just put in a T.V. and call it a bar."
Bar and club owners need to cater to the crowd by providing good dance music. Driscoll said they should be in front of their music, top 40, classic rock and
some country and western
"We keep up with what's hot on the radio." Driscoll said.
Don Schmidt, owner of Pizzazz,
901 Mississippi St., said he thought that dancing was becoming more popular than drinking because people were becoming more conscious of the effects of alcohol.
Pizazz has three dance floors and features top 40 and rock music.
"We have a variety of music that will take care of everybody's appetite." Schmidt said.
Another local club that features top 40 and rock music is Just a Playhouse, 806 W. 24th St. The club has live entertainment Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, said manager Jim Elkins.
"People like to come out and dance to get their exercise, socialize and listen to live bands," he
said
Six nights a week, the Bottleneck, 777 New Hampshire St., offers a variety of live music including rock, funk, reggae and blues, said Doug Vink, manager of the Bottleneck.
The Jazzhats, 926 $\frac{1}{2}$ Massachusetts St., caters to all musical tastes by providing live bands that play a variety of music, including reggae, said RICK McNely, Newbury.
The Shiloh, 1003 E. 23rd St.
gives country music lovers live
entertainment every Friday and
saturday.

Most of these club owners and managers said that 50 to 95 percent of their customers danced. However, Vince and McNeeseley said the customers who danced depended on the time, the event and the show.
