"What we are constantly told in the service is that what we do is in order to protect our citizens' freedoms so that they can participate in things like peace marches," he said.
Lars Larson, Atchison senior,
did not attend the march and
said he wouldn't be opposed to
the war if it became a necessary step.
"I think the world would be a safer place if we got Saddam Hussein out of power," he said. "I think they should try for diplomatic relations first, but the sooner we act the better."

"The first thing I'll do in office is a top to bottom state budget review to examine where we stand. Tax issues come later."
Sebelius said once the review was completed, any unused or misallocated money would be redistributed to areas where money was needed, including education. She said Kansas had not done this type of budget review since 1978.
Sebelius praised the University of Kansas' student-run political groups and said she had a goal of getting 5,000 new voters at the University.
"Education is the best economic development engine we have in the state." Sebelius said.
Murray said Shallenburger was courting the student vote by working with college Republican groups across the state.
Matt Flynn, KU College Republicans vice-chairman, said Shallenburger was committed to not raising taxes at this time because keeping taxes low helped boost the economy.
"I think that in past camp paigns, candidates of all parties have ignored voters at college.
Flynn, Lenexa junior, said College Republicans from universities across the state were working together to get the word out to students about Shallenburger and his platform. Shallenburger met with heads of community colleges on Friday and Murray said he expected the campaign would meet with other schools in the near future.
"I think that in past campaigns, candidates of all parties have ignored voters at college, but they're making a strong push to get a big college voter turnout this year,"

"We are still trying to educate our own members; it is an issue of habit, not stubbornness."
"Rush," "house," and "pledge" are the three terms that were most recognized and needed change. The word "rush" is the opposite of what recruitment should be.
"Rush" overemphasizes the process as quick," Perez said. "The change was made to recognize recruitment as a process, not as a quick decision to be made."
Melissa Brown, Delta Delta Delta member, said she didn't think the term change had affected people's attitudes.
"Rush' overemphasizes the process as quick. The change was made to recognize recruitment as a process, not as a quick decision to be made."

"People not involved in the system don't think any different." Brown, Overland Park senior, said.
"During recruitment, I still have to explain to people where I go for a week."
"House" was changed to
"chapter" because many chapters do not reside in a house, but they are active on campus.
"A house is a building, but a chapter is an organization," Carr said. "You can have a very effective chapter without a visible structure."
Perez said he hoped the University community recognized the sincerity of the change the fraternity and sorority community is working toward.
"They are saying they recognize that people may have been alienated, and now they are trying to call it what it is," Perez said.
