Law journal clarifies some unclear issues
By PAMELA SPINGLER
A big, wooden table with scattered copies of today's Wall Street Journal dominates the room on the fifth floor of Green Hall.
Thick, worn books line a bookshelf and the coffee machine gurgles in the background.
This is the home of the Kansas Law Review, a journal about different aspects of the law. The KU School of Law incorporated it in 1952.
"We like to publish articles that resolve some of the unresolved areas in the law," he said.
Reggie Robinson, Overland Park law student and editor of the law review, said the review provided a forum for ambiguous law issues.
Donna Long, the review's business manager, estimated that the cost of putting the journal out for an entire year was $40,000. The journal is published four times a year.
But the state partially finances the journal and the staff understands its responsibility to publish articles that are useful to Kansas practitioners, Robinson said.
Law professors and others associated with issues in the law submit articles to the journal.
A board of three faculty members and 13 student editors decides what material to publish.
The staff receives one credit hour for participation, and each member is required to write an in-depth article.
"It gives students a great chance to enhance their writing ability." Robinson said. "Writing is one of the biggest parts of being a lawyer. Words are as much as a tool of lawyers as journalists."
Many people think that lawyers are like the ones on television, he said, always in court arguing in front of the jury. But much of the law has nothing to do with the courtroom.
"Not every lawyer argues in front of a jury," Robinson said. "But every lawyer must write clearly and persuasively.
"Even Perry Mason had to file briefs."
About 22 second-year law students and 10 third-year law students make up the staff of the law review.
To be selected for the law review, a student must submit an article and have good grades. A selections committee reviews each article and looks at both fall and spring grades in determining qualified students.
"The people on the law review are people that want to be on the law review," Robinson said. "They put forth the extra effort of writing something."
John Steele, Olathe law student and articles editor for the review, said many students tried for a staff position for different reasons.
Steere said some students thought the people on the law review were aloof, but he said it was the constant companionship of the students on the staff that made them seem to others.

KU profs to study in Korea
A faculty exchange program between the University of Kansas and Korea University in Seoul, South Korea, is scheduled to begin next spring, KU's director of the Center for East Asian Studies said last week.

"Korea hasn't received the academic attention it deserves," he said. "A lot of people tend to stereotype Korea as a rural, country because of what they saw on the television show *M**A*S*H."
At least one South Korean professor, will arrive at KU next
Hurst said the grant application would allow two people from the University to go to South Korea this spring and that two or three professors would be sent to South Korea for the second and third years.
Although Japanese industries and marketing strategies have received considerable coverage by the media, Hurst said, South Korea deserves similar study and recognition.
Cameron Hurst, the director returned last week from South Korea. He said the three-year exchange would involve economic studies.

Hurst said Moos would study the structure of the Jindo Corp., the leading producer of fur coats in the world.
The U.S. Information Agency this fall selected KU's Center for East Asian Studies as one of 30 grant recipients in a sponsored program. The grant, which totals more than $59,400, will be used to help finance the faculty exchange.

Hurst attributed South Korea's economic success to U.S. capital, which was invested in South Korea after the Korean War ended in 1953, and to government-subsidized economic programs developed by former president Park Chung Hee, who was assassinated in 1979.

KU on Wheels presents Bus Rider's Bad Weather Tips #1,#2,#3 for better bus service
**1** If you live on Daisy Hill, try to take a bus leaving at :03 or :05 after the hour to ensure yourself a seat . . . and a less crowded bus!
2 When leaving campus for Naismith-Oliver, try to take the Naismith-Oliver bus instead of the more crowded Heatherwood-Ridgecourt bus—they come one right after the other!
Remember to smile at the bus driver! He might just smile back! This semester there are more people riding the bus and keeping dry than ever before!
We thank you for your patience and your patronage KU on Wheels is a service of Student Senate
