Election Year 1992, billed as "The Year of the Woman," resulted in the tripling of the number of women in the U.S. Senate.
But though that may sound impressive, women will make up only 6 percent of that legislative body.
Kansan staff writer
"If this is 'The Year of the Woman,' then 6 percent isn't much of a change," said Ken Collier, assistant professor of government.
Four women will join Kansas' Nancy Kasebaum and Maryland's Barbara Mukelski in the U.S. Senate. And the number of women in the U.S. is growing. The number proved from 29 to 47, according to the National Women's Political Caucus.
Senate also increased, from 1992 session's nine to 13, according to figures released by the Kansas secretary of state's office. One of those new senators is Sandy Praeger, Lawrence Republican, who will represent the 2nd District.
The number of women in the Kansas
"I think I've come into the process at a time when women are accepted, at least here in Douglas County," she said.
Though women in the state Senate increased, the number of women in the Kansas House of Representatives actually decreased, from 37 to 31.
Douglas County will be sending two Lawrence women, Betty Jo Charlton and Barbara Ballard, to the state House chamber.
Female candidates for federal offices gained attention earlier this year when a record number of 11 women won their respective senatorial primaries. In U.S. House races, 106 candidates were women.
One of those Senate candidates set a first of her own. Carol Moseley Braun, an Illinois Democrat, will be the first African-American woman in the U.S. Senate.
While the demographics of both national and state legislative bodies have shifted, Collier said that he did not expect major changes in the way they operated.
"It's part of a gradual process," he said. "I think female candidates are
getting accepted slowly. Getting over a deeply entrenched bias takes time." But he did not rule out change altogether.
If the sexes are different at all, that is bound to be some difference. he said.
Coinciding with the rise in the number of female candidates is an added interest in topics traditionally regarded as women's issues, such as care for the elderly, health care and children's issues, Praeger said.
"Perhaps it's a little of both."
Praeger said. "Those issues now quite naturally become a part of everyone's campaign, not just women's."
But whether the growing importance of those issues is pulling women to the political forefront or still a question to be answered.
Students need to find homes for the holidays

tion Agency, the center has coordinated the program, Central American Peace Undergraduate Scholarships, or CAMPUS VII.
The Center of Latin American Studies at the University of Kansas is looking for more than a few good men. They are looking for warm families in Lawrence to act as hosts for visiting students.
Through a grant provided by the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, the CARES Grant program
The program will provide scholarships at the University for 13 juniors and seniors from the countries of Guatemala, Belize, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama from January 1993 to May 1995, said Samuel Sonmerville, program assistant.
Volunteering families will receive a daily stipend of $15 per student for room and board but are not responsible for extras such as health care, personal items or long distance telephone calls.
Host families in Lawrence will enhance the cross-cultural experience of the students while at the University,he said.The program also will help establish lasting ties between this country and Central America, he said.
However, families are expected to incorporate the students into their lifestyles, Sommerville said.
Although the students will live at the residence halls during semesters, the students will stay with the families holidays and semester breaks, he said.
"This is a great way to encourage understanding about each other," Sommeryville said.
