Walker said When students run themselves down, their immune systems are lowered; causing them to be more susceptible to colds and infections. Walker said For freshmen, adjusting to college life can be particularly stressful. Weller said. Stress can also trigger such physical ailments as tension headaches, abdominal cramps, irritable bowel syndrome and nausea after eating, he said. "YOU TAKE A KID, take him away from his normal environment, and he's going to be more apt to get that stomachache that wouldn't bother him at home," Walker said. Marlene Currie, Omaha, Neb., freshman, agreed that adjusting to Lawrence and "I have a 7:30 class on Mondays, Weddings and Fridays," she said. She was drinking a cup of hot tea in Wescoe out of bed some morning to get out of bed some morning. Currie said she was tired. She has two tests and two papers due next week. And like most freshmen, she's a little home-sick. "It 'worse if I go home, because when I get back I think of all the fun I had." she said. "But I think I'm doing OK so far. No major catastrophes." ONCE FRESHIMEN BECOME acclimated to college, the academic crunch hits. The pressure to choose a career and to graduate in four years often forces students to take "irrational course loads," said James Lichtenberg, an associate professor of counseling who works at the University Counseling Center in Bailey. "But a large number of students — I'd guess most — don't graduate in four years. Lichtenberg said, "A lot of students are trying to jungle too much at once." Joe Humerickhouse, Osage City senior, is taking 20 hours and working three days a week. Humerickhouse waits tables at Alvamar Country Club, works as a security monitor until 5 a.m., twice a week at Ellsworth Hall and spends one week each month working at a state rehabilitation home in Osage City. SQUEEZING TIME TO study in between going to class, working and catching up on sleep hasn't been easy. Humerickhouse said. "I'm definitely pressed for time," he Humerickhouse said he drank several Cokes each day and occasionally took a Vivarin to help him stay awake during his security shifts. said. "Sometimes I feel lethargic and tired. But other times I'll be really nervous and fidgety — just bouncing off the walls." "but I don't think it has a negative effect on me," he said. "I can drink two or three cups a day." To help students learn to cope with stress, Kerkman recommended a program of what he called "behavioral medicine." KERKMAN ADVISED STUDENTS to establish a regular sleeping schedule, eat balanced meals and exercise at least twice a week. But the key, Kerkman said, is teaching students to identify what causes them stress. Once the stress is identified, students can learn several "relaxation responses," such as biofeedback and progressive muscle relaxation. "The trick, though, is to incorporate this relaxation into the daily routine." Kerkman said "You can't do it for a day or a week. You can make it go to make it part of your lifestyle." member of the Socialist Workers Party in Kansas City, Mo. Todd also called for political action. Protest continued from p. 1 "ORGANIZE, MORBIZIE, demonstrate and discuss this stuff politically," he told the crowd. But Highbierger urged the speakers and gatherers to "join us to unite regressors and their political beliefs." "We can work together," he said. "We can build, and we will build a world where a building is made." Alex Bovard, Arden, Del, senior, stopped at the rally on her way to class. She said the rally raised issues that had remained at her mind and had provided her with information. "It's probably one sided," she said, "but it gives me a feel for what's on." Steve Hughes, St Louis freshman, was walking on campus when the rally drew his attention. "I think it's pretty cool that people can get to speak out on what they believe in," he said. "That's important." continued from p.1 "You're talking about combining a church almost with a clinic." Dankwerth, whose trip to Scotland was financed by an Ewart scholarship, also received a traveling scholarship of $140. He used the money to pay for travels around Europe, during which he made the trip. "To actually stand in a cathedral and hear the organ playing, and to feel and smell the old stone, is amazing," he said. "It's like living history." THE KU ARCHITECTURAL history classes do a good job of preparing the student for experiencing a wide variety of architecture, unlike the history classes at Heriot-Watt University, Dankwerk said. At Heriot-Watt University, the emphasis on feedback and criticism of students' projects and the attitude toward the amount of work required for each project are considerably different from KU, he said. The KU architectural program provides a significant amount of feedback from professors and peers about students' designs. "It is very important to give student professor relationships," he said. The working environment at the Scottish university was more like a 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. job, Dankwerth said. 6 12 MINI $0.11 VAMI $0.89 THE GRINDER $1.67 $3.00 HERO 1.75 HERO 1.75 PIPPED BETT 2.00 4.00 HUMAN MEAURAL 1.75 4.55 HUMAN NAILSAG 1.75 4.55 COMBATION MEAURAL NAILSAG 1.75 4.55 PIPPINGTON & HUMAN OHNE 1.60 2.90 HUMAN NIVEA HAM 1.85 4.55 GONDA 1.95 4.75 MIGRATIANS 1.50 2.70 AMERICAN HAM 1.85 4.55 6' 12' MINNIE HALEY HAMON RAYL 1.00 1.00 ROSSI BELL 2.00 1.00 TURKEY 1.00 1.00 COUR 1.95 1.67 PASIRANU 1.95 1.67 REUBEN 2.10 1.90 CANAAN RACON 2.00 1.90 KWALITY COMICS --- Your wardrobe can be enhanced with items from Villager College Town Sassafras Hang Ten Brenner Sport Main Street Pant-Her Jantzen Country Suburban Open Thursday nights until 8:30 MIDNITE SHOW FRIDAY & SATURDAY Paisley BOX OFFICE OPENS AT 11:30 Downtown 843-1085 KWALITY COMICS Comics & Science Fiction 107 W. 7th. 843-7239 PENTACOLOR TV MACOLOR TV Student Discounts for You Call Mike / 1-764-6061 FREE Delivery, Installation DEALING WITH THAT UNEASY FEELING Learn to: initiate conversation make new friends adjust to new social situations Tuesday, September 25 FREE! 5:30 to 9 p.m. To attend please register at the Student Assistance Center 120 Stone Street 844-6344 REASON#2 TO CALL A FRIEND: YOUR SANITY. College life can have an unsettling effect on your state of mind. From sitting in strange classes to living with even stranger people. Sometimes it feels like the only person you can really talk to is yourself. Well, you know what they say about people who talk to themselves. So call an old friend instead. Even if your friends are far away, they still know you and care about you. And they won't judge you by your choice of major or the condition of your laundry. Calling a friend is the best therapy for the money too. Call after 11 PM weeknights or between 11 PM Friday and 5 PM Sunday when rates are the lowest. So call a friend or two, and tell them just how crazy it's been. You'll be surprised how sane it can make you feel. Southwestern Bell Telephone
