SES director talks to all
By LORRAINE JOHNSON
Staff Writer
Richard Lee, new director of Supportive Education Services (SES), thinks a major part of his job is to communicate with and interact with group groups as well as minority groups.
"I try to be as for real as possible with all individuals," Lee said yesterday. "If you come in for a service and we can provide it, we'll provide it as rapidly as possible. If we can't we'll tell you we can't and may try to refer you to someone who can."
Communicating with more than just those directly involved in the program is also important.
"I'd like to make sure that individuals throughout the University, as well as the community, are aware of the SEGs is doing or has done, and would be willing to assist when called upon," Lee said. "It's important that the program be a viable part of the total institution's resources."
SES provides tutoring and counseling to disadvantaged students, who have to fill the requirements of the financial aid department.
Lee said his primary goal is to make sure the program meets the needs of the students. He said student financial matters were important for the SES to consider.
Lee said he plans to work closely with the financial aid office so that students won't quit the University because of financial trouble.

Mary Townsend, minority affairs director, said the SES program started in the fall of 1969. She said about 240 students were involved in the program last year.
In the past, SES was under the Office of Minority Affairs, but it now depends on the Office of Academic Affairs. Townsend said the move to place the SES under an agency that she the university has been her objective since the university has Minority Affairs director.
"In any type of program that relates to dealing with the concerns of minority groups, I think there should be, and from what I have been informed, there has been, a very good working relationship between the two," he said.
Gary Flanigan, former SES director, resigned in February. At the time, Flanigan was disappointed with the battle between the Office of Minority Affairs and SES.
Lee has been involved in minority programs for the past eight years. His interest began while teaching in Baton Rouge, La.
Although SES is no longer under the Office of Minority Affairs, Lee plans to work on it.
"I saw then a great need for a more comprehensive program that related specifically to the overall needs of teachers rather than just the educational needs." Lee said.
KU TV service ends, other services remain
The Division of Continuing Education will provide free television service to the University.
Ron Calgaard, vice chancellor for academic affairs, said Friday that $15,000 that had been budgeted for the television service had been reallocated to other areas.
"It was a question of judgement," Cain said. "Because it did not serve people, because it did not serve enough people."
Calgaard said several faculty members in different areas made extensive use of the television service and some professors recorded their lectures on video tape.
"Professors who want to tape their lectures may still do so," he said. "However, departments desiring these services will provide for the services from their own budgets."
Calgaard said the campus television service that is being curtailed shouldn't be confused with either the audio visual services or the broadcasts that are also provided by the division.
A microwave link that allows lectures given at the Lawrence campus to be seen by students at the KU Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan., will remain unaffected, according to T. Howard Walker, dean of the division.
"For a couple of decades, continuing education has provided television service for lectures from the Lawrence campus to the Med Center," Walker said. "We will continue to furnish the personnel to run the lectures and to assist with scheduling of the lectures."
Walker said the division used to operate
Cheery voice awakens clients
At exactly 8:05 every weekday morning
Mary Smooth receives an offensive phone call from Rita King. Smooth pays King $7.50 and tells her she will be apparently pleased with the arrangement.
The King, who is sole owner and operator of the "Rise 'N' Shine" wake-up service, is hoping more people will want to subscribe to their service. She said the new service had four clients.
King said that $7.50 a month entitled a client to 25 phone calls to wake him up or call her if she was not available. He was otherwise likely to forget. she said $10 would buy 25 to 100 calls a month (about three calls a day) and for $25, the client would receive an unlimited number of calls each month.
Three of her clients were working people and the fourth is an older woman who receives a daily reminder to take her medicine. King said she expected most of her business to ultimately come from students.
King, who performed a wake-up service for another, now defunct, business, said she came to know the clinists quickly and could call if one call would get a person out of bed.
King said she could usually tell whether someone would crawl back into bed as soon as the phone was back in the cradle. In that case, she said, another call would be made.
"If they are coherent and say everything is okay, you can tell," she said.
As the clients come to know her better, King said, they usually feel free to mutter whatever epithet they deem suitable for what is often an unwelcome intrusion.
"The typical response is 'Go to hell,'" she said.
The offensive phrases that King says she delivers to Smoot and the other sleeping clients in her cheeriest possible voice are: hear, rise, and rise, shine, it's a beautiful daw.
"I's a horrible thing to hear when you can wake up," Kim said. "It makes people wake up."
A graduate of Southern University in Baton Rouge, Lee received his masters degree in Vocational Rehabilitation In Manakote Mankato State College in Mankota, Minn.
At Baton Rouge he was a teacher, and a coach. He also worked with the Manpower Training Center. He then moved to the Minneapolis school system where he taught and worked with the Twin Cities Opportunities Industrialization Center.
The mobile tape units, known as porto packs, are now on loan to the School of Education and to the Kansas City Area Regents Center in Overland Park. The focus of the focal point of the division's operations in the Kansas City, Kan., area, he said.
two mobile video tape units that were used to tape portions of lectures.
"Our enrollments in off-campus courses are muzzyrooming," Walker said. "We no longer have the resources to take porto packs to on-campus lectures."
His most recent job was at Mankato where he assisted the coordination of minority affairs in 1970. While at Mankato he was assistant director of Ethical Minority Groups Study Center, a program he helped initiate.
