Yetman said student athletes adding or dropping classes without approval had led to serious problems in the past.
"This has been a source of grave abuse," he said. "It has been injurious to our program, and I don't want to see it continue.
"As a faculty member, I want to nail this down as tightly as possible." Failure to obtain such approval is defined under the policy as student athlete misconduct. Yetman said. One of the possible consequences of misconduct is the loss of athletic scholarships.
Other recommendations include special academic orientation sessions for student athletes unable to
'We want to be sure we're recruiting academically eligible athletes who are capable of graduating from the University.'

attend the University's summer orientation program; a panel of faculty members with strong academic credentials to serve as academic advisers for student athletes; diagnostic testing to identify student athletes who might need special academic support; and a monitoring system that would automatically "red flag" problem areas during enrollment.
Gary Hunter, assistant athletic director, said the University of Iowa, which uses the same type of computer system as KU, already had a computer program that prevented unapproved adds or drops and automatically monitored satisfactory progress of athletes.
Lawyer says insert taxes are fair
TOPEKA - Advertising supplements inserted in Kansas newspapers, whether they are printed out-of-state or by the newspapers themselves, are fair game for state sales taxes, a state revenue agency attorney told the Kansas Supreme Court on Monday.
The Associated Press
Cleo Murphy, attorney for the Department of Revenue, made the statement in support of her argument that K-Mart Corporation should not be exempt from paying taxes on advertising supplements it has inserted in Kansas newspapers.
In February, the Board of Tax Appeals ruled the company does not have to pay an out-of-state sales tax, called a compensating use tax, on advertising supplements printed in another state and placed in Kansas papers under contract with K-Mart.
The decision was based on a state law which ex-
empts newspaper advertisements from sales taxes because they are an essential component of the paper and the ads are not tangible, personal property.
Murphy labeled the decision 'arbitrary, capricious and unreasonable' and said the fact the supplements were printed in another state was not an issue in the case.
She said the supplements were tangible personal property but were not essential parts of the newspaper.
"The advertising supplements are not a component part of the newspapers," she told the seven-member high court during oral arguments. "The newspapers do not buy the supplements from K-Mart or charge an advertising fee.
Murphy said K-Mart should let individual newspapers print the ads if it wanted to qualify for tax exemption.
