10 University Daily Kansan Tuesday, September 11, 1979 --- Classified... From page one step if the University thinks he merits the raise. After an employee has completed the six steps, he can receive 5 percent longevity increases every five years. ASIDE FROM THAT, Collins said, employees receive only the 6 to 7 percent cost of living increases. Collins said that employees could switch classifications after reaching the sixth step of a job, but that they would not go through another six steps. For example, "One classification could have a pay step range of $60 to $1,000, while another class could have said, 'If an employee switches from the lower classification to the higher, he' would be classified." Collins also said that employees who enjoyed their work and reached a high level of competence did not want to change classifications. "As many as half of all classified em- playees have held their jobs for more than six years, he said. "You're dealing with your most experience workers when you take them to the Legislators. You legislators don't take all that into account." COLLINS SAID his salary for working as a geologist was $67,000. Natural History had increased 18.2 percent over the last three years, 0.8 percent less than Berner be estimate of 19 percent salary "I don't think I'm underpera," Collins said. "But I know there are a lot of frustrated employees on this campus who can't keep up with the cost of living." Del Shankel, executive vice chancellor, classified employees were part of a statewide system that KU had little control over. "Our position is that we hope we can get the maximum increase for all our staff," Shankel said. creasing national divorce rate indicated that more women would have to learn to support themselves. Report... From page one "But although more than half of American women work," she said, "the salaries are only 57 percent of what the American male makes. That's because women are concentrated in low-paying jobs, while the well-paid职位 eosmen." The women in secondary schools still are concentrated in home economics courses, she said, and they need to know that they may have to support themselves some day. Administration was included in the study because women predominate in teaching, but rarely make it to administrative positions such as superintendent. "This teaches students that women aren't capable of making important decisions," Gordon said. Percy Sillin, a spokesman for the Kansas Department of Education, said there currently were no women superintendents in Kansas public schools. But he said attempts were being made to change this. Sillin said gradual changes were being brought about in the number of women in vocational education programs. "The problem didn't come about in a year or two," he said, "and it won't go away in a year or two." Sillin said that in the last year, the department had added a position on its staff to monitor sexual equity in Kansas vocational education programs. Sillin said one reason Kansas might have ranked so high in women's athletics was that rural areas had traditionally had many girls participate in sports. “Of course there has been more emphasis on this since Tile IX was instituted,” he said. Tile IX requires schools to provide athletic and academic opportunities for both sexes. Social welfare trains About 300 students in the School of Social Welfare will begin practical training this week with social welfare agencies in either the Kansas City or Wichita area. Margaret Shutz, School of Social Welfare field practice director, said yesterday that about 305 students would start work in schools from hospitals to family service units. "This experience helps." Students in the program must be seniors or first- or second-year graduate students. "This field work gives the students much needed experience in working with social agencies. But we need for social workers, but there still are many agencies because budget cuts from social agencies Second-year graduate students usually can decide where they want to work, Shutz said, but seniors and first-year graduate students in jobs by the field practicum staff. "THE SENIORS and first-year graduates are in the program predominantly to get the fundamentals of social work operation," Shutz said. According to Shirley Garfield, program assistant director, students are placed in hospitals, including mental hospitals, nursing homes, and care homes. Nursing homes, schools, and day care centers. the students involved with the program, Valialla Cunningham, a teacher at the school, liked the program because it gave her a chance to 'direct contact' with people and to be in touch. Last year, Cunningham worked at a Lawrence nursing home through the program. "I developed a close relationship with one lady in particular," she said. "I tried to support her and to help her feel better about life." Students do not get paid for participating in the program, which is a requirement for graduation from the school. The students pay a fee to enroll in the program.
