Ministries reach out to students
By Dawn North Kansan staff writer
Finding the man or woman of your dreams might be enough to compel some KU students to get involved in campus ministries, but Alison DeTray joined for other reasons.
DeTray, Bucyrus senior, said that even though campus ministry provided a great way to meet people with similar values and beliefs, it also offered an environment where students felt unconditional love and acceptance.
Back-to-school week provides an opportune time for students to look into various campus ministries and try them out.
Kansas University Religious Advisers provides a pamphlet listing the 22 ministries that have been registered with their organization and will hold an open house from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. today at Danforth Chapel.
"We want to hear students' views of who they think Jesus is." Mark McElmurry Navigators director
Many of the 22 ministries on
campus have back-to-school activities planned during the next two weeks and invite students to be involved.
Linda Smith, Director of Outreach at St. Lawrence Catholic Campus Center, invites new and returning students to an opening barbecue tomorrow at 5 p.m. on the lawn at St. Lawrence.
"St. Lawrence would like to welcome all students and wish them success in their year," she said.
The Navigators, a non-denominational ministry, will be administering a spiritual interest survey
nursday and Friday in front of Mrs. E's.
"We want to hear students' views of who they think Jesus is," said Mark McElmurry, Navigators director.
Steve Swanson, Director of Chi Alpha Christian Fellowship, an Assembly of God campus ministry and past president of the Advisers said, "KU Religious Advisers tries to establish a relationship between the registered leaders of religious organizations on campus and the University. The leaders and members of the religious organizations then interact with students."
DeTray said thinks the most important purpose of campus ministries is to teach students about God. That knowledge, she said, gives students hope and purpose.

Elizabeth Berghout, assistant professor of music and University carilloneur, plays the carillon at the top of the Campanile. The Campanile is a monument to students and faculty who died in World War II.
Carillonneurs keep campus ringing
Mark Hansen
Kansan staff writer
At the top of the Campanile, metal linkage rods fire like pistons while the bells resonate. The rods pull the anvil-shaped clappers that strike Campanile's 53 bells.
The playing cabin is just below the five tiers of bells and allows barely enough room to slither around each side of the clavier, or keyboard.
The largest bell weighs 13,440 pounds and the largest clapper weighs 300 pounds.
the bells by turning a tension knob. The knob is on the 56 wires that connect to each clapper. A professional carillon service technician checks the bells once a year.
Playing the instrument is physical. Elizabeth Berghout, University carillonneur and assistant professor of music, raps the wooden keys with a loosely closed fist. When the pace quickens to a cluster of notes Berghout somersaults her fists along the knees
The bells are permanently tuned in the factory, but before each recital Berghout adjusts the distance between the clapper and
"Some have called the carillon the most unmusical instrument around," Berghout said. "But I don't think so."
She became KU's carillonneur last fall, when Albert Gerken retired after 37 years.
Berghout has 22 recitals scheduled this semester. They are at 5 p.m. Sunday and 7 p.m. Wednesday during daylight savings time. The Sunday recital is at 3 p.m. after the time changes. There are no recitals during Labor Day, fall break or Thanksgiving break. Recitals last about a half-hour during the school year.
She ends each recital with "Crimson and Blue," the KU alma mater, and then offers tours of the Campanile afterwards.
When the bells ring and Berghout is not performing, it could be a
student at the keys or the "Westminster Quarters" — a tune that plays automatically every quarter hour.
Classes in carillon are open to KU students with permission from the music department.
Curtis Sloan, who graduated last spring with a political science and communications degree, learned to play the carillon while at KU.
Sloan's friends could hear his class work.
"I worked in Strong Hall," Sloan said. "And I would tell my friends to open the windows and listen."
Sloan's favorite place to listen to the carillon is behind the railing outside of Spencer Research Library. He said the sound bounced well there.
Interested listeners can get more information at the carillon Web site, www.carillon.ku.edu.

Uphill battle: going to KU's campus isn't a cake walk
By Mark Hansen Kansan staff writer
Mount Oread is steep, but not steep enough to keep physical education off the ARTS form.
However, he did say recent studies show that walking especially uphill walking improves health.
"We know now that even that workout is beneficial," he said.
Leon Greene, associate professor and undergraduate curriculum coordinator in the department of health and sport sciences, said the hills and the lack of a physical education requirement weren't related.
Maps at the T.R. Smith Map collection in Anschutz Library, prepared by KU Design and Construction Management, show that the highest campus elevation is 1,025 feet in front of Strong Hall.
This peak slopes down to 880 feet at 18th and Illinois streets and 900 feet at Ninth and Massachusetts streets and at Memorial Stadium.
The Kansas Union sits between 970 and 1,000 feet. Potter Lake is 950 feet.
Anthony Romero, graduate student, said he avoids the steep walks. He works and has class in Malott Hall, so he parks by Robinson Center and takes a short walk to Malott.
"This is the only part of campus I see," he said.
Students who walk directly to Wescoe Hall from McColum Hill traverse two-thirds of a mile. The path through Irving Hill Road begins at 1,000 feet, dips to 910 feet, then climbs back to 1,000 at Wescoe.
Fourteenth Street climbs up 800 grueling feet with an increase in altitude of 100 feet from the middle of the intersection of Ohio and 14th streets to the campus gate
Dannah Hartley, Carl Junction, Mo., junior, walks up 14th Street from Louisiana St. to campus.
"It's not too bad," she said. "The hill behind Wescoe with stairs is a killer."
Despite the temptation, Hartley said she hasn't chosen to stay in bed instead of climbing the hill to class.
"No, no, no," she said. "It's not that big of a deterrent."
