Phelps said that Hinman filed a sex discrimination suit against the University of Kansas and some faculty members in the late 1970s, before Tacha was appointed vice chancellor in 1981. The lawsuit, which is pending in the U.S. District Court in Topeka, criticizes KU employment policies. The suit includes promotion, recruiting and tenure deficiencies for women and other minorities.

Hinman said Tacha wasn't upholding an agreement signed by the University with the U.S. Department of Labor in 1982 that emphasized equal employment opportunities at KU.

One man's junk furnishes another's apartment
Wednesday, Nov. 6, 1985
By Susie Bishop Kansan Magazine writer
Little money lingers in most students' bank accounts to furnish bare and lifeless apartments and bring for tuition, books, rent and food.
But with just a little imagination, a comfortable apartment can be achieved on even the strictest of budgets.
Each semester many seniors graduate and leave their campus corners and treasures to seek a new life in the working world.
to make her attic corner into a pleasant place to reside. Breitenstein said she had applied coats of paint to the floor and put a bright carpet on the floor.
Those students remaining at the University of Kansas have a chance to find new living quarters and amusements in mishaps for their private palaces.
She said the bold yellow and white decor helped eliminate the feeling that she was living in an attic
Lisa Breitenstein, Overland Park junior, shares an old house with three other roommates on Ohio Street. She lives in a two-story apartment fixing up her room in the attic.
"A lot of times, people are moving out after graduation and are looking to get rid of their things." Neal Pfeiffer, Lenexa senior, said recently.
Household decorations travel in circles from one student to the next, Susan Welling, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore, said. Several items in her apartment came from students who left the University for some
The fun, and sometimes frustrating part of decorating comes after the basic furniture is put in its place.
For the rest of the house, Breitensien said it took about a month for her and her roommates to satisfy the furnishing needs of the house.
Welling said, "When we buy it, we're just taking other students' junk."
"We put a porch swing up for a special touch," she said.
Many students said the majority of their furniture, dishes and wall hangings were provided from leftovers and other pantry items that had stored in basements or cities.
Garage sales offer plenty of bargains for the deal-seeking student, but he should be aware that customers are much jank as they do bargainants.
The resulting collage of furniture styles and colors mixes the most contemporary with the sometimes prehistoric. But the lack of a strict decorating scheme enhances, not detracts, the appeal of the apartment.
Creative students won't let a low budget hamper their desire to make four plain walls into places that reflect their styles and interests.
Breitenstein said the parch swing was free, too. She found it in her parent's house.
"Whenever there is a garage sale, we can't pass it up," Welling said. "We just keep collecting stuff."
Great buys usually don't come knocking at the door, Angrisano said.
"We went to a couple of garage sales, but we didn't find anything," he said. "But we didn't really make an effort either."
Local stores offer many ideas for decorating; some can be costly. Students who plan ahead can find great deals at any time of the year.
Students going to Padre Island during spring break can take a short junt across the border into Mexico and find all sorts of trinkets to brighten up dull apartments at reasonable prices.
Mexican blankets on the floor or the wall make a colorful addition to a room with old, yellowing lehcanon or bamboo mats. You can also bamboo mats can do the same thing.
Mark Cerney, SUA staff member, said about 40 students had taken advantage of the library this year.
Of course, posters also are a great way to solve the dingy wall problem. Every semester, Student Union Accommodations paint paintings to students for small fees.
The Picture Lending Library rents framed pictures to students for 75 cents to $7.50 a semester, depending on their value.
At the beginning of each semester the library has an exhibit of all the pictures. After the show, students still may rent the pictures, but they won't have good of a selection as before, Cerney said.
"All the good stuff is taken, but they can still rent them." he said.
they can sit rent them, he said. Bare floors are easy to dress up, too. Some students said they had seen checkerboard carpets gracing apartment floors. The floor covering is made of taped carpet squares from local rug shops.
After the bare floor is conquered, the next problem is that annoying bright bare light bulb in the room. It will be corrected and corrected quickly and inexpensively.
One inexpensive idea is to buy a Japanese paper lantern to cover the light bulb. The color of the paper
