Studying, socializing focus of Multicultural event
Hawklink and stEp are trying to bring in new members with books and bowling.
The two Office of Multicultural Affairs programs, which mentor, advise and tutor students, are holding a social tonight.
A study session will run from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Kansas Union's first floor Hawk's Nest. Tutors will be available to assist students in entry-level course work. Free bowling at the Jaybowl will follow.
There will be free food and an opportunity to meet the people who run the Hawklink and stEp programs, the Office of Multicultural Affairs and the Multicultural Resource Center.

Woman charged with felony after undressing in airport
EVANSVILLE, Ind.—A French woman faces a felony charge of disorderly conduct at an airport after she allegedly undressed to her waist in an angry outburst at security screeners.
A judge Tuesday found probable cause for the charge against Eliane Yvonne Marcele Aguillaume, 56, of Paris. She also faces misdemeanor charges of resisting law enforcement and public indecency.
Prosecutors will consider whether the incident rose to the level of a felony, Deputy Prosecutor Dawnya Taylor said.
Authorities said Aguillaume kept reaching inside her sweater, forcing guards to re-search her, during a routine screening Monday at Evansville Regional Airport.
After a screener attempted to use a metal-detecting wand, Aguillaume became upset and allegedly removed her sweater, shirt and bra.
Mexican singer kidnapped, sisters plead to be left alone
WORLD
MEXICO CITY—Mexican Latin Grammy performer Thalia's two sisters, freed after relatives paid a ransom to kidnappers, are pleading to the press and public to leave them alone.
Laura Zapata and Ernestina Sodi were kidnapped Sept. 22 after they left a play in which Zapata had a starring role. Zapata was released 18 days later, and Sodi was freed Saturday.
She said her sister Ernestina was in "poor health" after being detained for more than a month. Zapata added that the two would leave Mexico, but she didn't say where they would go or for how long.
The family asked police to stay out of the case and hired a private team to carry out negotiations with the kidnappers.
Zapata said Thalia's husband, Sony Music Chairman Tommy Mottola, did not help pay the ransom.
