The coffee house was named after a Lilian Hellman collection of short stories called "Pentimento." Moulding said she and her husband liked the word's meaning.

As the owner of the Pentimento, Moulding made many of her personal principles a part of the cafe's policy. For example, Moulding said, the cafe's 30 employees were deserving of respect. The customer was not always right at the Pentimento.
"I if a person gave the waitresses trouble, they had the power to say, 'That's a bunch of shit,'" Moulding said.
Nightly tips were divided equally among everyone who worked because Moulding said the quality of food and the shine of the dishes also influenced the customer's decision on the amount
The food at the restaurant was cooked fresh each day and die mountain refined sugar. Very good and delicious.
"I'm not a vegetarian, but I thought it was important to serve healthy, home-cooked food, instead of frozen hamburgers that have been heated up on a grill," she said.
THE QUALITY of the food and the Pentimento's decision to let customers linger for hours with their coffee prevented the cafe from making much money, Moulding said.
"I guess if you're a good businessman, you've got to make people feel uncomfortable if they're just drinking coffee, but one of our goals was to keep them come in, just hang out and feel comfortable."
Last year, Moulding said, the Pentimento became a community gathering place and its profits began to increase. But during that time, Moulding and her husband divorced and she and the cafe's managers were left to run the restaurant.
This fall, Moulding decided to close the Pentimento and take pre-nursing courses at the University. Next semester, she will move to California to prepare for a nursing career.
"Closing the Pentimento was hard for me. It was a big part of my life,ounding said quietly. I wasn't really sure what to do."

Affirmative
DESPITE KU's affirmative action program, whites filled 94 percent of the University's full-time faculty positions in 1979, a figure that had not changed in four years.
Hands made up only 1.2 percent of the faculty in 1975 and 1976, from 1.9 percent in 1975 and 2 in 1976.

faculty members changed less than one-half of
one percent over the four years.
Women have been inching up the ladder of faculty representation. In 1978, 17.5 percent of all faculty members were women, compared to 16.6 percent in 1975.
However, in the areas of executive and administrative management fell from a high of 18.7 percent in 1977 to 2.2 percent in 1986.
Edwards maintained that women have increased their representation in positions of high visibility.
Complaint
From page 1
Weltmer, a 1978 KU graduate, was women's sports information director from September 1978 until the men's and women's athletic departments merged in July 1979.
"Technically I was always women's sports information director," he said, "but the philosophy of the merger was to get everybody in the same office."
AFTER THE MERGER, Weltran said, he also worked with men's non-revenue sports.
Before Weltem was fired, the sports information office had a director and two assistants. Now, Sid Wilson, sports information director, and Bill Newsome, his assistant, are the office's full-time employees.
Wilson was sports information director at Baylor University in Waco, Texas, before coming to KU in July. Newsome, a PKB KU alumnus, came a full-time assistant in January 1980.
