Escort service opening delayed

The date for the introduction of a proposed campus escrort service has been extended to allow time to find more volunteers, Sally Duncan said. She steeredering committee said last night.
The service, which would provide excuses for students who walk home after dark, had been scheduled to begin operation Oct. 29. Committee has not set another starting date.
But members of the steering committee say they are rapidly overcoming the obstacles delaying introduction of the service on campus.
The committee has obtained bases of operation at Corbin and Marvin hills, Dan
Schenkein, committee member, said The group also has been offered space at Hashinger Hall.
Schenkan said that although the com-
munity has been offered applications from students who wanted to act as volunteer escorts, about 100 more volunteers would be necessary for the community to accept.
THE GROUP IS planning to canvass scholarship halls, residence halls and Greek living groups in search of additional volunteers.
Committee member Todd Zwaal said volunteers would be required to provide three local character references on appraisals and to attend screening interviews.
Schenkein said volunteers would be given cards with the Campus Safety Services Logo and the volunteer's name on them.
"When volunteers go to a building to escort someone," Schenken said, "they will introduce themselves and present the cards for identification."
The escort service, which would operate between the hours of 6 p.m. and 8 a.m. every day, would serve only the KU campus and camping living groups at first. It would expand its services later if it proved successful, members of the committee have said.
TURNER SAID the group had yet to resolve the problem of funding for the service.
"But we don't think it will be any problem once we get organized," she said.
She said the Campus Safety Services group to get recognition as a student group from organizations and activities. Recognition would make the group eligible for Student Recognition.
A committee for education and male awareness of rape has also been set up under the umbrella of Campus Safety Services.
Jo Lee Clusey, a member of the education committee, said the committee was planning educational programs for campus living groups and neighborhood groups, such as the Oread Neighborhood group. The programs probably would begin next semester.
Park purchase a long process

If Rep. Larry Winn, R-Kan, pushes his proposed Tallgrass Prairie National Park bill through Congress, it could be decades long. A government could buy the proposed 374,000 acres.
County extension agents in Waukee, Butler, Cowley, Lyon, Chase and Chanqua counties said yesterday that the grassland farmers were reluctant to sell their land.
Winn introduced a bill Oct. 15 that would establish a national park in Kansas
grassland areas, including parts of Chautauqua, Cowley, Wauasee, Chase, Butler, Greenwood and Lyon counties.
"This is a very long-range plan. "Winn said yesterday in a phone interview. "It may take 100 years to buy that much land, but we are not trying to take on the whole state."
Winn has been working toward establishing a tallgrass park for about 10 years and has introduced several park services. He also co-founded the Secretary of Interior to buy grassland as
Immiment domain would allow the government to acquire the land by declaring it to be in the public's interest and paying the landowner a fair market price.
it came on the market, rather than acquiring it by imminent domain.
PAT MALYE, county extension agent in
Gilbert, said the couple come up for sale very often. Much of them was passed on from the family and has been owned by the same rancher for a long time.
He said the land was selling for a minimum of about $300 per acre.
Winn's bill would allow the Secretary of Interior to spend $10 million a year to buy grasslands.
Darrol Marlow, county extension agent in Wabasau County, said land there was sold for $50 to $1,000 per acre. The more acres were sold, the larger the saleage where crops can be grown, he said.
Mike Holder, county extension agent in Chase County, said, "Not near as much land is sold here as in other parts of the country or other parts of Kansas."

Formula funding draws criticism
By JEFF SJERVEN Staff Renorter
One provision in the current Regents formula funding proposal that worries some KU faculty members is good enrollment quotas in University schools, T.P. Srivaman, associate chair president of the麻省理工学院，Associate Chair of University Professors，said yesterday.
"I don't think formula fundings lacks the training he said. We should emphasize the positive aspects of happening is that the value of the principles behind the proposal seem to get lost in the process."
Srinivasan said some faculty members thought one weakness in the proposal was the statistical breakdown of education costs in different schools.
Because funding under the new formula takes different education costs into consideration, the University will receive more than 70% of the students enroll in high-cost fields, he said.
Two high-cost programs include those offered by the School of Fine Arts and the School of Architecture and Urban Design.
THE REGENTS FORMULA funding proposal was formulated by a special task team composed of representatives from Reigate and the University of Regents in August, the task force said funding requests would be directly tied to student credit hours and to comprehensive requirements.
Because of cost differences between schools, the report said, shifts in enrollment could have an effect on total funding.
"If an institution experiences an enrollment decrease that is spread proportionately across all disciplines and levels, the proposed approach will require a major rethink of the curriculum topromptly equal to that required by the previous system," the report reads.
'BUT, FOR EXAMPLE, if enrollment is low in-cost instructional areas and decreases in the same amount in high-cost instructional areas, the proposed
approach will require a reduction in resources."
Universities in New York have used a similar discipline compared with several years ago. Answl, assistant vice chancellor for finance and business at the State University of North Carolina, served as interim director.
However, Ralph Christoffersen, KU's vice chancellor for academic affairs, said there was no basis for concern.
"THAT HAS NEVER been talked about, nor is it a good form of education," he said. "The idea behind identifying fund needs by analyzing the needs of students exactly what it costs to educate students.
Srinivasan said that although the AAPP disagreed with some details of the funding proposal, it agreed with five main principles of formula funding:
"There is a danger of a qoqat system under the formula." Anwar said yesterday that the committee has corroded about that. The concern is valid to some extent in undergraduate programs at universities.
"Under current funding procedures, a shift in enrollment from liberal arts to the School of Fine Arts would increase costs, but allocations from the state would remain the same. This is because current funding is only on full-time equivalent enrollment."
- Appropriations for higher education should be based on past data, instead of enrollment predictions.
- FUNDING PROCEDURES should have a built-in lead time of a year or two so that employees who are to be released can be notified.
- Appropriations should be based not on headcount, but on program cost and quality of programs. For example, shift allocated funds between programs in the most efficient way with appropriate budgets.
- The appropriations procedure should ensure quality and efficient year-round use of resources and should not encourage competition among Regents institutions.

Schumm has been working with city officials and representatives of taverns in Lawrence since July to improve the city's ceral malt beverage licensing ordinance.
Beer drinkers won't be able to stand outside a tavern holding a can of beer if a proposed revision version is approved by the commissioner. Bochum said yesterday.
The revision proposed by Schumm will be considered at Tuesday's city commission meeting.
Revisions proposed in liquor ordinance
He said one of the major changes in the ordinance would be a section prohibiting people from standing outside taverns or parking in park lots with open beer containers.
He said the changes were made in
response to complaints about crowds gathering outside of taverns and about litter caused by the crowds.
Other complaints were received about tavern patrons throwing beers can at passing motorists and urinating in public.
HE SAID THAT the problems were particularly bad in the spring and summer, and that the ordinance was old and needed updating.
"There are many more taverns and private clubs in town since the ordinance was originally' he said, "With more bags there are more problems."
Under the old ordinance, police officers could do nothing about persons holding drinks outside a tavern when they actually were seen consuming the beer.
dinance should help free police See BEER page 12
