SenEx sent about 1,175 forms to faculty members Oct. 23, asking them whether they supported the proposal on selective admissions with few or minor reservations, whether they supported the concept of selective admissions but did not like Kopilk's proposal and whether they supported the current open admissions policy. Kopik's proposal would require in-state students to complete a recommended high school curriculum with a grade point average of 2.0 or higher, a score 23 or higher on the ACT composite or rank in the top third of their graduating class to be admitted to the University of Kansas. Under the current policy, any student who graduates from an accredited Kansas high school automatically is admitted to KU. About 366, or 11 percent, of the forms were returned. The survey indicated that 208 sup- Sandra Wick, SenEx administrative assistant, said the survey might not accurately represent faculty opinion, because those who took time to answer the survey probably had the strongest feelings on the issue. "Funding is clearly on people's minds," Swartz said. About 125 people wrote additional comments, Wick said. The specific comments were not available yesterday. She said many faculty members would support selective admissions if they thought the state might change the way it allocated money to KU. Evelyn Swartz, SenEx chairman, said she wasn't suprised that most faculty supported selective admissions in the survey. She said she thought the comments were the most interesting part of the survey. Under the present system, the amount of money KU receives from the state depends on the number of students enrolled. Thus, under the current system, if KU admitted fewer students because of selective admissions, it would receive less money. $1549^{00} MICROTECH XT-10MHz - Fully IBM AT compatible * 80286-10 processor * 6 to 10 MHz waltchick clock speed * Mini disk lock * 3.2K ram, expandable to IBM on motherboard * 1.2MB floppy drive * 2048 hard drive disk * Monographs adaptor * High-performance mouse monitor * One year warranty MICROTECH AT-286 OPTION 640K CGA or EGA color monitor OPTION CGA or EGA color monitor NMI hard disc, 40 or 80 mm hard disk tape backup - Fully IBM PCAT compatible * BIOS processor * Advanced clock speed * Expansion slots * 256 RAM available to 840K * 256K RAM expandable to 840K * Motorships and显微镜 * High resolution monochrome monitor * High resolution $749^{00} Wick said that the survey results would be discussed at the Nov. 12 University Council meeting and that Judith Ramaley, executive vice chancellor, might include the results in a report on selective admissions to the Regents Kansan Fact: 7,900 KU Students Spend Over $300 A Month!

"All a student has to do is ask for one, and usually it appears pretty quickly." Turvey said. "I can't imagine somebody being here since the beginning of the year without student assistance finding out he needs a snace." Templin has no spaces for disabled students because no students with disabilities live at the hall, Turvey said. Turvey said Parking Services reserved parking spaces for the disabled at a hall only when a student with disabilities lived there. The number of reserved parking spaces would be the same as the number of disabled students living in the hall, he said. He said that since the University had begun installing spaces for disabled students in 1977 no student was forced to leave. He noted that a disabled space he reserved. "The spirit of the law is that there be a spot that gives students with disabilities easy access to the building," Turvey said. "As far as I know, the university does have parking for all students with disabilities." Turvey said that disabled students with state handicapped permits who visited Templin could park in the building or enter the hall without receiving tickets. Petty, who is disabled, said he had received several parking tickets at KU. But, he said, he never had to pay any of the tickets because he successfully appealed them to Parking Services.
