Legislators . . .

"When you talk about funds to renovate all the state buildings that need attention, you're talking about millions and millions of dollars." Martin said.
"We will examine proposals from KU and from other schools and develop a list of projects that need immediate attention and receive top priority from the Legislature.
THE TOUR OF OPENS began at 10 a.m. with an examination of Strong Hall. Legislators were told that the building needed several improvements, including a new elevator that would make the building more accessible and a central air conditioning system.
Later the legislators were taken to Flint Hall where Del Brinkman, dean of the School of Journalism, explained a proposed
remodeling project that better utilize space and limit connection between classes.
At Snow Hall, legislators were told by Brower Burchell, professor of biology, that the building needed to be gutted out and rebuilt inside.
"We need more room for biological studies and for using new equipment," Burchell said. "The building vibrates whenever large earthquakes occur, which is difficult to conduct delicate experiments."
BURCHILL ALSO said that none of Snow's animal care rooms met federal standards.
Other projects approved by the Regents involve replacing steam lines that serve the University's eight scholarship halls, Von Ende said.
"The steam lines are badly deteriorated," he said. "If they should go down, there would be no heat in our scholarship halls."

Four other student students who also had been put on suspension for the same reason were reinstated by StudEx after a letter of apology was turned in by each student.
The Student Senate executive committee dismissed 18 student senators yesterday because of poor attendance since last spring's elections.
The 18 vacancies will be filled by the runners-up in each Senate seat in last spring's elections, Rafferty said.
Also at the meeting, Laurie Winnie chairman of St. Louis student senate and member of the Student Senate sports committee, had sent a letter of resignation to Margaret Belfort, student senate president.
Chanay, who has been chairman for 18
months, stated in his letter that he was resigning with mixed emotions.
Chang said that commitments to school, business interests and fraternity obligations were the reasons for his resignation.
At the end of his letter, Chamay said he was proud of his former student body president and Reggie Robinson, former student body vice president, when "student government made him a part of it."
He said he hoped "student government can once again return to the credibility achieved by the Harper-Robinson administration."
On the agenda for the Student Senate meeting tonight is an election for a seat on the University Senate executive committee, which will preside over profit student organizations to have fundraising events on campus, a resolution supporting a proposal for the state funding of nonstudent use of the Kansas Union and a resolution defining the newly formed classified senate.
Student Senate will meet tonight at 6:30 p.m. in the Satellite Union.

Wiechert also said KU would like the Legislature to match what federal funds the University could get for work on campus. The university is the oldest building on the Lawrence campus.
Civilization program also have caused some confusion among the program's instructors, according to Tim George, an instructor of Western Civilization.
"In a large part, the confusion is due to her inexperience. The instructor wasn't sure about the chance of the beginning of the semester," George, an assistant instructor of Western College.
Dykes and other administrators took the legislators on a similar tour Monday of the Colleges of Health Sciences campus in Kansas City, Kan.

The greatest problem created by the changes, according to Richard Flering, is that teachers are now required to Civilization program is, that instructors in the 194 and 185 courses will have less time for their own teaching.
"We're showing them everything so they can see firsthand what we need," he said. "However, it is very unlikely that the Republicans will make the Regents and support other projects."
"In a large part, the confusion is due to the fact that most of the instructors weren't sure about the changes until the beginning of the semester." George said.
In the past, Fleming said, instructors gave students their entire grade, based on a grading scale created by the instructor. In the past, Fleming said, the student's grades will depend on the final.
Dykes said the legislators probably would consider only those proposals approved by the Receits.
Western Civ finals required
Students taking Western Civilization 104 and 105 this year will be taking final examinations each semester instead of a comprehensive exam at the end of the year, James Seaver, director of the Northern Civilization program said this week.
The two-credit-hour courses were changed into three credit hours and the final exam was added. Seaver said.
The two-hour Western Civilization honor courses, 114 and 115, also became three-hour courses with final examinations, Seaver said.
In past years, students enrolled in Western Civilization 104 and 114, or 105 and 115 for two hours of credit took a comprehensive examination after the second
"A lot of students were apprehensive about the comprehensive exam," Saver said. "Now we hope, students will participate in our program with a bit less apprehension."
Some students have been confused by the changes, according to Richard L. Spear, an instructor in the Western Civilization program.
Students in the schools of social welfare and journalism will have to take the final exams each semester, the deans of the two schools said.
"The PRECISI way in which the exam will be given isn't exactly tacked down, but that will be cleared up soon." he said.
THE CHANGES in the Western
By taking the comprehensive exam, students received another two hours credit.
Some students, including those planning to enter the schools of journalism and social welfare, were required to take Western Civilization courses but were not required to take Western Business. ALL STUDENTS taking the Western Civilization courses will take the

final exams each semester and will receive three hours credit for the courses, Seaver said.
Details of the examinations have not been settled, Spear said, and this has lead to confusion among some students.
"A lot of students may get screwed because some instructors will stress things that won't be on the final." Fleming said.
