12 Thursday, August 30, 1979 University Daily Kansan Students get more loans, grants In addition to increased enrollment at the University of Kansas, there has also been an increase of students in Jerry Rogers' students by the Office of Financial Aid, Jerry Rogers, director of financial aid, said. However, Rogers said the higher financial aid payments were not attributable to higher enrollment. "We are handling more grants and loans for the students of our Student Assistance Association signed by Pressman. la.t November and the increased availability of guaranteed student loans," The act allowed more students to receive more money, he said. Carter promised in his 1976 presidential campaign to find sources of assistance for riddle income families because of rising costs at American colleges and universities. Jeff Weinberg, associate director of financial aid, said exact dollar figures spent on aid programs were hard to determine. The Opportunity Grant program and the guaranteed loan program had experienced the greatest dollar volume increases of all the financial aid grants. "WE STILL HAVE 750 applications left to process this August, and they alone represent about $2 million," he said. He said that the amount of college Work Study money given out had increased since last year, but that the amount of Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants and the amount of Loan payment had remained stable. Weinberg said 2,828 guaranteed student loans were processed by the financial aid office from January to July 1979- an increase of 1,299 from the first six months of As of yesterday, the office had processed 390 loans in August, and had 750 more to deal with. Only 513 loans were processed in August 1978. If the number of loans already processed this August by his office are any indication, Rogers said, the number of loans granted in 1979 should overwhelmingly exceed those given in 1977 and 1978. "THE FIGURES are staggering—so much that they're about to stagger us right out of the business," Roster said. Rogers said that some students who are on a work study program or are given grants to pay for their school fees, Grants or National Direct Student Loans also may receive a Basic Education Grant. All of the 290 grants have been processed this year and approximately 600 more are expected by the year. By Oct. 31, 1978, the financial aid office had processed 1,819 grants for that year, he said. Incorporation response lukewarm By DAVID LEWIS Staff Renorter Student organizations at the University of Kansas have been slow to respond to a KU budget cut. The university is corporation to student groups, Steve Bray for KU legal services, said yesterday. Last summer, KU legal services published a series of ads in the University Daily Kanan offering legal services any time of year. The organization that wanted incorporation. Ruddick said the student organizations lacked interest in incorporating because it was advantageous only in rather limited situations, such as lawsuits. -KANSAN Under a corporation, the victim would sue the organization instead of an individual. The Alpha Two-Way Store, 2011 W. 28 St., was burglarized Tuesday morning between 4:30 and 8:30 and more than $7,000 stolen. Lawrence Police said yesterday. For example, if an unincorporated student organization held a cookout and a patron suffered food poisoning, the victim could file a suit against an individual of the group. Rudick said, however, that an individual would not necessarily be protected by the corporation if his actions were blatantly negligent. Police said $450 in cash was taken along with $7,090 of citizens band radios and a television. Police said they had no suspects in the case. Police Beat MARGARET BERLIN, student body president, expressed some interest in incorporating the senate. Kansas law requires corporation applications to be approved by the secretary of state. The process is "fairly swift," Ruddick said. He said most student organizations would never incorporate. According to police, Al Holt, 3004 W. 51st, owner of the store, discovered his store had been burglarized when he arrived at work Tuesday morning. Holt told police that he found that the south door to the store had been taken out and the merchandise had been taken out. To become incorporated, a student organization would have to pay a $50 filing fee. he said. Only one organization has requested incorporation since Ruddick assumed his position at the KU legal services Mar. 19. "If we were a corporation, we would not be bound to state regulations concerning student fees," Berlin said. "Right now, we don't have anything that the state does not allocate." The process of incorporation is an easy one. Ruddick said. However, Ruddick said the student organizations would not issue stocks as a normal corporation would. "Certain requirements, such as annual meetings, reports, keeping books in order, would have to be met." he said. "A lot of organizations don't need to incorporate themselves," he said. "A lot depends on their activities. For example, a group and a group don't need to incorporate itself." Student organizations would receive "perpetual" incorporations, which would last indefinitely, he said. "If a student organization became a corporation, it would have a board of directors, an annual meeting, and most everything a corporation has." Ruddick "For example, if we were a corporation, we could make a contribution to a political group." Ruddick said only non-profit student organizations were eligible for incorporation. Corporations would present some problems to student organizations, Ruddick said. "They would come to me," he said. "We would have to set up a name for the corporation, decide whether it was a profit or a loss, decide how we set up election for a board of directors."
