Senate cuts KU Lecture Series financing
By Stacy Morford Kansas staff writer
Student Senate killed a $20,000 bill early this morning for the KU Lecture Series that would have brought speakers such as Spike Lee or Magic Johnson to KU. Senators also slashed a $16,000 bill financing the Black Student Union's Big Eight conference on Black Student Government to about $6,000.
Senate appropriated more than $2,000 for three minority groups and discussed two city alcohol policies that were the topic of a meeting between KU students and Lawrence city officials last week.
Sandy Praeger, Republican candidate for Kansas Senate, spoke to Senate about a letter she agreed to sign requesting that Kansas Attorney General Bob Stephan review Lawrence's drivers license check point policies.
Brad Garlinghouse, student body president, asked Prayer, as a state official, to send the letter on Senate's behalf because Lawrence police did not seem to be following the state check lane policies, he said.
"There are two ways to get this reviewed," Garlinghouse said. "One is to get arrested at a DUI check point and go to court and I really don't want to do that. The other is to have a state official request that the attorney general review the policy."
Drinking alcoholic beverages on Campanile Hill was another issue the students discussed Friday with Lawrence's city manager Mike Wilden, Mayor Bob Schute, chief of police Ron Olin and assistant city manager Rod Bremby. Garlinghouse said he wanted the University's prohibition policy repealed.
David Ambler, vice chancellor for student affairs, said that alcohol on the hill during football games was not the biggest problem.
"It was 35,000 people celebrating after the Final Four, which had probably 10,000 high school kids with a lot of them under the age of 18," he said
referring to post-basketball game celebrations. "That was a big liability."
Ambler said that drinking on the hill had violated University policy. The state also prohibits consumption of alcohol on public property.
Four bills to finance minority groups on campus, two of which already had been through Senate, also were debated. The KU Cultural India Club and the Japan/America Club each returned to Senate after previously being denied funding or having funding revoked.
"We've been through five hours of finance, five and a half hours in one senate meeting and four hours
today," said James Miller, chairperson of Japan/America Club and Baldwin senator. "It was definitely not the situation we expected. I had not expected a level of support so low among senators."
The club was allotted $356.50.
The KU Cultural India Club originally requested $2,600. Meera Srinivasan, the club's advisor, said the club was lucky to get the $1,498 that was appropriated.
Two, weeks ago, Senate voted to finance the club, but as the meeting progressed, several senators said they had made a mistake. About an hour after India Club members left,
Senate voted to reconsider the bill this week.
"The fact that they weren't mad as hell astounded me," said Patrick Dilley, graduate senator. "They should have been mad when they came in here."
Dilley said that a fear of lack of money influenced the way the Senators voted.
Senate also passed a bill requesting $500 for the Hispanic American Leadership Organization's Hispanic Heritage Month.
Senate adjourned at 2 a.m. with less than $30,000 left in its unallocated account.
Breaking bricks for God attracts crowds

It is hard to ignore a man with a Samson-like figure who karate chops cement bricks in the middle of campus.
About 250 gawking students yesterday surrounded 6-foot-2, 280-pound Tom Sirotkas as he slammed his duct-taped head in a scream.
"We're not just coming out here to do a bunch of stunts," Siriotnak shouted to the crowd afterward. "We have a good message for you."
Sirotmak's message is evangelical: God can help break through walls in anyone's life.
"Bricks are like walls in peoples' lives, whether they be walls of rejection, fear, stereotypes or sin," he said. "God gives the power to break down walls in life."
Sirotmak, a former college football nose guard turned chaplain, travels to campuses worldwide to preach his message and pulverize bricks. He performed yesterday east of Wescoe Hall to promote his University of Kansas appearances, sponsored by Jayhawker Campus Fellowship.
Although Sirotmak's evangelism turned some people off, most stuck around and witnessed his stunts, such as bending two half-inch steel rods around his neck.
As Sirotnik readied himself for his feats, many in the crowd clapped in encouragement and chanted, "Go, Tom."
Sirotmak entertains to earn the attention of an otherwise indifferent audience.
"That's what Jesus did with parables," he said. "In those days, they didn't break bricks or anything; they told stories to draw people in."
John Dale, a founding member of the Jayhawker Christian Fellowship, said he hoped people who were attracted by Sirotnak's feats of strength also would listen to his words.
"We want to reach out to students and get their attention and focus on what God can give them," he said.
Regardless of Sirottina's message, his presentation was effective. said Gabriel Caunt, Colorado Springs, Colo.
"It's a good attention-getter," he said. "I guess it's supposed to lend credibility to what he is saying."
but other spectators were either unimpressed or skeptical about Sirotnak's presentation.
"Being that I'm Jewish, it really doesn't matter to me," Lisa Elin, New York sophomore, said. "I'm from New York, and I've seen a lot better in Times Square."
Bob Edwards, Lawrence freshman, said, "I thought it was a tad looey. I don't think it said in the Ten Commandments. Thou shalt break breaks for God." I don't see how the two go together."

Claiming the spirit of Jesus Christ gave him the necessary strength. Tom Siriotnik bludgeons his way through a stack of nine cinder blocks, each measuring approximately one inch thick. Siriotnik was outside Stauffer-Flint Hall yesterday, promoting a series of speaking engagements sponsored by the Jayhawk Campus Fellowship.

Student interest in Peace Corps escalates at KU
By Christine Laue Kansan staff writer
College students are looking to the Peace Corps as a job alternative because of changing career attitudes, a stiff job market and increased publicity, recruiters with the corps said.
The corps was recruiting KU students Tuesday and yesterday at the Kansas Union.
In the first two hours the table was there Tuesday, more than 75 people stopped to inquire about the Peace Corps, recruiters said.
A total of 625 people last year in Kansas, Missouri, Iowa and Nebraska applied to join, and 750 people already have applied as of Oct. 20 this year, he said. Although Adam did not know how many of those volunteers were KU students, he said the University was the number one school for recruitment in all four states.
"We usually have a good turnout when we come to KU, but I think we're having more today," said Mel Adam, regional recruiting director. "I think in the last few years there has been a renewed interest in people wanting to join."
A total of 6,100 volunteers in 94 countries served in the corps, the U.S. agency created in 1961 by President John Kennedy to help developing countries meet their basic needs for health care, food, shelter and education.
More publicity in the media is one reason for the increased interest, Adam said. He said another reason could be that graduating college students are concentrating more on helping others than on making a lot of money.
The increased interest is a reflection of the economy and the scarce job market, Adam said. While in the corps, students acquire experience in their field of study and a more global outlook.
Students get about $200 living allowance a month and $5,400 readjustment allowance when they return to the United States after their two-year service.
January Layman, a 1900 KU graduate who returned Friday from the Comoros Islands east of Africa, said that she did not join the Peace Corps because of the loan deferral but that she paid off a $1,500 student loan.
Some student loans are deferred for people serving in the corps, meaning students do not have to pay on their own.
