Most students think of a party as a time to drink beer, dance and meet people. But for David Haugh, Tom Wickland and Dave Gregory, parties are for making money.
The three are enterprising students who combine business with pleasure to furnish music, photographs and favors for KU parties.
The dozens of parties sponsored by fraternities, sororites residence halls and scholarship halls provide an opportunity to make money in a work atmosphere less is less structurally more relaxed than most traditional student jobs.
Students who plan parties for the various living groups often prefer to work with other students.
Carol Woodward, social chairman
of Downtown Hall, said, "Working with students definitely helps. They do a lot of extra things and add a personal touch."
HUAGH, TOPEKA JUNIR, provides one of the most important factors for a good party; music. Working with Blue Fire Sounds, Haugh provides both lighting and sound systems for parties.
Haugh said that maintaining the sound equipment, keeping the record selection current and advertising the service was no small task.
"To make it profitable took a lot of work." he said.
Still, Haugh said he liked the independence that working as a disc jockey gave him.
jacket he gave." "I like working weekend nights," he said. "It's a fun atmosphere and it pays very well."
Haugh said he earned at least $150 every night he worked.
Wicklund, Fairway senior and a photographer for University Photography, also said he liked the atmosphere of working at parties.
"I GET TO SEE a lot of people," he said.
Wicklund said having a student photograph party goes helped them relax and pose for pictures.
Having someone who's a student and who's been at parties, too, makes it easier to let go," he said.
Liz Call, manager of University Photography, said she liked the advantages of using student photographers.
"We always hire students," she said. "They know more people and are able to acclimate themselves to a party situation."
Call said an outgoing personality was the most important quality for a party photographer.
Gregory, Buehler senior, sells
glassware and sportwear party favors for Norman Lewis Associates. He said low pressure sales tactics are the best response from students.
Norman Lewis is a service organization, Gregory said. After setting up distribution, the company hires Collegiate International, a Kansas City, Mo., company, to manufacture the glasses.

"We try to give more personalized service." Gregory said. "Students like working with other students."
"Bearward said. 'It's fun to put on a good party. I'd rather help a college student make a dollar than someone else."
