Grievance
'ABOUT THE SECOND charge, he said. "I would like to point out an error in the charge itself. The petition I authored does not call for GLSOK's removal from campus. It calls for a referendum.'
"Concerning the third charge, I would like to say that I have harassed no one. When making inquiries in the GLSOK office, I always conducted myself in a responsible and even courteous manner, and I have witnesses to this fact.
"I presume they felt harassed by my very presence."
Crisp said he thought the complaint should never have been processed by the affirmative action office.
“This is harassment if you ask me,” he said. “They filed a ridiculous complaint under the impression it would not be made public.”
Crisp said Lichtwardt had not met the requirements on the form that asked for dates, location and participants in each occurrence listed.
LICHTWARDT HAD NO comment in response to anything Crisp said.
Roberta Ferron, director of affirmative action, said her office seldom made a decision in the case.
"There is no way for us ever to determine if a complaint is frivolous," she said. "If we were to prematurely say something is wrong, we would violate a person's right to a process."
"Our affirmative action plan covers the administration faculty, unclassified staff, and other staff."
Ferron said she could not confirm or deny any complaint that had been filed in her office.
"These things are supposed to be highly confidential," she said.
HAUNSCHILD'S COMPLAINT WAS similar to Crisp's. He also was charged with sexual preference harassment.
He said the occurrence descriptions were listed as: comments made to Ruth Lichtwardt while working in the library; wearing
of a "fagbusters" T-shirt to the GLSKO office during a television interview; harassing Ruth Lichtwacht at the Senate office building; and calling for the removal of a calling for GLSKO's removal from campus.
He said the remedies desired were listed as: removal from campus; to stop wearing "Faghusters" T-shirts; public apology in the event of over KJR during prime time hours.
Hauschild also responded to the charges against him.
"About two years ago, Ruth worked at the McCollum Hall library," he said. "When I found out she was head of the homosexual services, I used to talk to her about it. She never gave me any indication that she didn't want to talk to me.
"THE CHARGE SHOULD have read conversations with Ruth."
Haushchild said he did wear a "Fagbusters" T-shirt into the GLSOK office while Lichtwardt was being interviewed by a television news reporter.
Anderson, defending Union Carbide and the chemical industry, said there had been a good record in handling toxic materials in the company was at the top in that category.
The five under arrest were described as the manager of the Indian plant, in which Union Carbide owns half interest, and other management employees.
"We have good relations with the Indian government" we've been a job provider
JACKSON BROWNING, COMPANY director of health, safety and environmental affairs, said it was "premature" to say what Union Carbide might decide on future production of the chemical.
India continued from p..i
Browning said that to the best of his knowledge officials did not think there would be any long-term health effect on Indian residents near the plant.
The gas, used in the production of agricultural pesticides, escaped from one of three underground tanks at the plant about 2:30 a.m. and enveloped Bhapol, 350 miles south of New Delhi, and a 15-square mile surrounding area.

Appeal's fate in limbo after board's meeting
People wandered through the streets carrying bodies wrapped in shrouds. Carcasses of water buffalos, goats and other animals still lay in the slum area around the plant, many with their legs frozen upright.

Police at the gates to Hamidia Hospital brandished long, bamboo sticks to keep emotional crowds outside from blocking the entrance.

Nearly two months after a Student Senate committee decided not to hold such an election, the University Judicial Board at a hearing on the appeal of the student's appeal of the committee decision.
A possible campus election to determine whether Gay and Lesbian Services of Kansas will receive Student Senate money still is in limbo.
Members of the board and those involved in the appeal left the meeting in Green Hall
Murray Levin, associate professor of business and chairman of the board, said last night that board members would meet next week to make a decision, which will be a recommendation to Chancellor Gene A. Budiz.
Levin said the board members did not think that they had enough information to
"We didn't have a complete file prior to this evening," he said.
STEVE IMBER, LAWRENCE senior, this spring circulated a petition calling on the Senate to put GLSOK financing up to a campus vote.
GLSOK for fiscal year 1985.
Under Senate rules, 10 percent of the students enrolled must sign a petition for it to be valid. Immer needed more than 2,180 students, and 2,578 students signed the petition
imber started the petition in the spring after the Senate voted to allocate $505 to
Iber has said that he thinks GLSOK could support itself and should not receive Senate
BUT THE SENATE Elections Committee on Oct. 4 said the petition was invalid because it was not properly worded. A week later, the committee said that the petition was discriminatory.
Imber filed his appeal with the judicial board about a week after the Elections Commission voted to annul the vote.
Thom Davidson, Elections Committee chairman, said last night that Imber submitted a four-page document naming the committee in his appeal.
In the document, Davidson said, Imber said he had followed proper procedure in circulating the petition and bringing it to the Elections Committee. The judicial board asked the Elections Committee to submit a similar summary of the issue, he said.
THE PETITION READ, "As a student of this University, I wish to petition the allocation of funds concerning the student organization called Gay and Lesbian Service of Kansas. Included in this petition is my belief that the GLSOK should be self-supportive, and for this reason, I believe that they (GLSOK) should not receive funds of any kind from any student organization from KU."
Imber last night left the meeting flanked by about six students, and he had no comment except to say that no decision had been reached.
The meeting was closed to the public and press.
