Women
Department of Education's representative in the Kansas City, Mo., regional office.
"First of all, the conference promotes awareness of the need for women to have the opportunity to achieve in the educational system," Blackburn said. "It also gives women a voice and opportunities to fulfill their goals and to review the problems that act as barriers, such as prejudice and tradition."
Many of the lectures and workshops at the conference stressed the need for "networking," a system in which women working at various firms can then move contact with and support one another.
SUBTLE FORMS OF discrimination are at work in the academic world, and they often prevent women from climbing to the highest ranks of the administration, according to Linda Moore, director of the Women's Institute in Kansas City, Mo.
"There is a lack of institutional recognition for what we are able to do as women in society," Moore said. "I could move no higher than my post as a teacher and counselor at the University of Missouri at Kansas City. We don't wield the power to help children, even have to fight the universities for child care."
Women suffer from high visibility in areas that have been traditionally male-dominated. Moose and elk
"When you are few in number, everyone notices you and knows all about you," she said. "That's one of the most serious sources of stress." You're probably one of the difficulty making decisions. We actually vic-
timize ourselves by trying to force ourselves into the male framework of success.'
WOMEN SHOULD NOT devalue what they know about sharing power and forming close relationships with others, Moore said. Those abilities are useful in dealing with people at the corporate and administrative level, but they often are lacked in men, she said.
Women in higher education cannot expect immediate changes in the system, and they must work together to gain support of the programs they want to see established. Moore said.
"There's a lot more networking among women in private business than among women in the university system," she said. "Yet we need each other more. We have very little time to get together, share strategies and find out that we have many of the same problems and concerns."
William Eddy, a professor at UMKC, said that management at colleges and universities was
"To have an impact on the institution, women must get out of their do-noothing jobs and get into other slots where the money is found and the policies are made," he said.
WOMEN SHOULD CONCENTRATE on the skills that will help them the most in management positions, such as knowledge of marketing, marketing and computer programming, he said.
Marian Washington, head coach of KU's women's basketball team and former women's athletic director, spoke at one of the conference's workshops.
Washington said she had seen KU's women's sports program grow into an intercollegiate
department that eventually merged with the men's athletic department.
When she took over as head of the department in 1974, her biggest challenge was to develop a positive image for women's athletics and form a team that would be an independent body and the community, Washington said.
"I spent the first two years running from meeting to meeting making people aware of our program," Washington said. "I talked to community groups, area merchants, the newspapers. It used to be a challenge to get a precede of our games in the newspaper. We couldn't get the support we needed until people knew about us."
WOMEN'S ATHLETICS HAVE always had money problems, she said. The KU women's athletic department was not permitted to offer scholarships until 1975, and when it couldn't afford to hire tutors for its athletes, it used the campus tutorial services, she said.
Despite continuing monetary problems,
however, most segments of the University "are very positive toward us," Washington said.
The workshop also included a discussion of women's studies programs at modern universities.
"The development of women's studies programs is shaped like the Golden Gate Bridge, with the posts at the east and west coasts," said Ann Carmen, coordinator of student's studies at the University of Missouri-Columbia. "That is, it has lagged in the Midwest."
However, more than 300 programs have been established in universities across the country.
Other kinds of programming include counseling centers, women's resource and research centers, study groups and support groups for women re-entering college, she said.
Two other topics covered in the conference workshops were marketing strategies and financing for women's programs and women students.
The spokesman for the Hizbe Islami rebel group said the clash with the Soviet convoy occurred Sept. 28, about 100 miles southeast of Kabul, near the Wardak Hindu pass in Ghazi province, when Soviet forces were preparing to launch an attack on guerrilla strongholds.
Afghan rebels. Soviet soldiers clash
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan-Afghan rebels said yesterday that they killed 25 Soviet soldiers and destroyed two tanks in a recent attack on two Soviet troops convoys in eastern Afghanistan.
The claim came as Moscow announced that Afghan President Babak Karmal would visit the Soviet Union this month for the first time and his rebels helped him come to power last December.
Observers saw the trip as an endorsement of Egypt's help his inability to crush Afghan resistance.
Students plan new terminal for city airport
A project by a fourth-year KU architecture class might be used by architects in planning a new terminal at Lawrence Municipal Airport.
Although the city is not planning a new terminal, Assistant City Manager Mike Wilden said Friday that the students' designs, to be presented to the City Commission in six or seven weeks, could generate interest in a new terminal.
Wilden said about 40 students in Gaylord Richardson's studio design class toured the airport Friday. Students looked at the airport's plan, which included a runway to be built this fall.
Richardson, an associate professor of architecture, said each student would prepare his own design for the new terminal.
Members of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce approached the class in hopes of encouraging the city to consider a new terminal for the airport. Another class several years ago proposed designs for a new city hall, Wildgen said.
Wildgen said that if the Commission did decide to build a new terminal, student's plans could be built and it would be less expensive.
