Four Years Service For KU Students.
SENATE BILL No. 751
By: Senator Berman
2/12
AN ACT concerning state educational institutions under the state regents, requiring repayment of debt service on board indemnities for the education and facilities by student institutions, prohibiting collection or payment to student fees for each debt service, amending K.S.A. 76-519 and 76-817 and expiring the existing K.S.A.
Senator Berman's Record on UNIVERSITY STUDENTS
We sometimes lose sight of the fact that the principal role of a major university is the education and training of its students. It would be a travesty to deny any Kansan, because of financial circumstances, the opportunity to obtain the best possible education. It is ridiculous, at a public institution, to require students to pay for the buildings within which they are being educated. It is important that student concerns continue to be heard and responded to by the Kansas Legislature.

Students, pros hit by burnout
It usually starts soon after graduation when neither the profession nor the job seems to be the one the student said he wanted when he grew up.
By PATRICIA WEEMS Staff Reporter
Lethargy, apathy, absenteeism and a drop in productivity soon take over.
Students can choose their courses and instructors, change majors before it is too late or take a semester off and work. Glicken said.
Burnout is the crisis in a person's relationship with a job or school that occurs from putting too much emotional energy into it, affecting the way he views himself, Morley Glicken, director of social welfare, said yesterday.
"Once you start working, you have to maintain a certain income level that students don't really have to worry about," Glicken said. "Usually they haven't started to worry about car or house payments, for example."
STUDENTS HAVE A much lower incidence of burnout than professionals, who have fewer options to escape problems, he said.
According to Glicken, there are three degrees of burnout.
"The first degree occurs during the time-limited periods of our lives," he remarked.
This degree is temporary and is
brought about by changes in the en-
tire body, an illness or a
change in the weather.
In second degree burnout, a person begins to look for another job or look at the amount of education he has for the amount of work that he is able of the day-to-day duties. Glicken said.
In third degree burnout, the individual feels that he is in a dead-end job and doesn't view his future positively. The individual usually begins to experience depression on Sunday afternoon, because he knows he has to go to work on Monday morning, Glicken said.
During this period, child and wife can be treated at catastrophic solutions to burn out are tried.
"But usually burnout just creeps up on you and there is no warning," he
Parents and peers can lead students to burnout quickly, especially when students choose careers their parents want them to. Glicken said.
"That is why students need to take a good, hard look at their majors and see if it is really what they want." Glicken advises them in his advice and counseling come in."
A NUMBER OF students come to school without knowing what they really want to do and advising can help them decide, he said.
Burnout can also come when a student may be slightly off the track of what they really want to do, Glicken said. An example of this would be a
student majoring in education who really likes working with people, but doesn't really like teaching.
In his research, Glicken said he had found a lesser incidence of burnout in students today than 15 years ago.
That could be attributed to students being a little less idealistic, he said.
"Students have a much better idea of that the work of life is all about," he told me.
The economy and changing times also have affected students' views, he said.
"There are not many students who go to college four years and get an education for a job that they would not like." Glicen said.
In the professional world, Glicken said, he has found that people in jobs such as nursing, social welfare and health care are being taught to be more prone to burnout.
But that is not to say that blue collar
workers are not affected, because they are, he said.
One way to alleviate professional burnout is to look at a problem rationally and decide if a change in jobs is necessary. If it is, the time most prone to burnout and not the time of greater productivity also helps, he said.
GLICKEN WILL conduct a workshop on "Coping with Professional Burnout" this weekend at Topeka's Holiday Inn Downtown.
The workshop is sponsored by the KU Adult Life Resource Center .
