Harvard to be closed at Iowa
Beginning Monday the intersection of Iowa and Harvard streets will be closed for at least two weeks. George Williams, director of public works, said yesterday.
The intersection will be closed so that underground wiring for new vehicle-activated crossing signals can be installed and new paving can be poured.
Currently Iowa Street is being widened to accommodate a fifth lane for the left turn. The street will be widened from 400 feet to 460 feet Road to 1,500 feet north of Ninth Street.
The intersection closing will affect only the east-west traffic flow. Northbound and southbound traffic on Iowa will continue, Williams said.
When the work on Harvard is completed the Yale Road intersection will be closed for paving. Williams said city law did not permit construction of both intersections at the same time.
Eventually, paving and wiring work will have to be done at Nith and Iowa. However, Bob Cook, resident engineer for the project, said it would be maintained at the intersection
because of the number of vehicles that use' it.
Cook said he was not sure the traffic flow on Ninth would be maintained. He said several ideas had been discussed, including the right turn access road off Iowa to Ninth.
The Harvard intersection is a school crossing as well as part of a bicycle route. The school crossing will be moved one block north to Yale Road.
Williams said bicyclists probably would have few problems getting around the construction.

KU to review work-study
Recommendations that could effect student hiring practices will be discussed next week by KU department representatives and by the Student Heart Employees. The assistant vice chancellor for student affairs and chairman of the committee, has said.
Sherwool said four recommendations had been made to cut down on the paperwork involved in hiring students and to make hire departments consistent from department to department.
Sherwood said the committee, which had been meeting since last June, proposed that student hourly employment be divided into two categories.
The first category, she said, would be students who apply to departments hiring more than four students for the same type of position, such as building and grounds worker or dining room server.
A 'a job pool' class would mean departments no longer would have to re-advertise every time a job opened up in that category, she said. Departments could advertise each other through a shared Aid. Students could be hired from the job pool at any time during the semester.
Departments hiring four or fewer employees and are required to fall under the category of "job species." For jobs in this category, departments would follow the procedures outlined in the job specifications.
The affirmative action handbook now requires departments to report the race, sex and disability status of job interview candidates to the Office of Affirmative Action.
Sherwood said all the recommendations had been submitted earlier by various departments.
THE COMMITTEE recommended instead that the name and student number for each applicant be run through the entrance race, sex and disability information.
The committee also recommended that a standard application for student employment be used in all departments. Sheward said the application would be made available now used in KU libraries, which are the University's largest employer of students.
This information would then be forwarded
to the Office of Affirmative Action, Sher wood said.
Del Shakel, executive vice chancellor, said he had proposed that the committee be formed last June. The committee was to handle problems the University had in reporting information on affirmative action programs to the federal government.
"Because of the variations among department, we needed to develop a more uniform system of reporting these things to the federal government," Shankel said.
