Book Store, said that he was not aware of the petition and that no instructors had called him indicating how many books needed to be ordered.
Muggy said that the store had reordered twice and had taken special orders to try to keep up with demand, but communication between departments and the store had been poor.
He said the store had sold out of their second order of French 230
books Sunday. But the store has never been out of French 110 books. The store received a shipment of 25 French 230 books Monday afternoon.
Donald Watkins, chairman of Germanic languages and literatures, said that in the past the department had trouble ordering books, but that the problem was solved when a faculty member was assigned to be a liaison between the department and the bookstore.
"As far as I know all of our
textbooks have been available," Watkins said.
Robert Spires, chairman of Spanish and Portuguese, said the department had problems getting enough books for beginning Spanish classes.

He said that in some cases the bookstores had told the departments the books were out of print, or didn't tell the department the books were out of stock until after classes had begun.
New minority hiring policy is planned at Kansas State
The Associated Press
MANHATTAN — Kansas State University, under pressure similar to that faced by other universities who have been urged to hire more black faculty members, will draft a new policy on minority hiring.
Timothy Sullivan, a Manhattan official with the National Association for the Advancement of Colored Peoples, sponsored an aggressive policy for hiring blacks.
Charles Reagan, assistant to university president Jon Wefald, agreed with Sullivan's assessment. But he said not all the blame should be placed on the university.
"Many people, not just blacks, are shying away from academic careers," Reagan said. "The word is
out — faculty members make crummy salaries."
Reagan added that almost every other university in the United States is under pressure to increase its number of black faculty members.
Some aspects of the new policy include: increasing salary offers to minority faculty candidates if an initial offer is rejected for being too low; helping find employment for spouses of high school graduates observing Martin Luther King's birthday by closing classes that day.
In addition to the low number of black faculty members, Sullivan said the NAACP also had confronted the university about on-campus displays of racism and illegal, discriminate
threats of violence against blacks.
The NAACP filed a complaint last month with the U.S. Department of Education to have her enrolled two Confederate flags displayed on university property.
"The flags and the low number of black faculty members together show a broad pattern of neglect by the university," Sullivan said. "Though the two may not be linked legally, the two are politically connected."
The education department notified Wefald in a letter dated Sept. 2, that he had jurisdiction to investigate discrimination complaints only in programs and activities that receive federal money.
Enrollment falls at The Way College
The Associated Press
EMPORIA — Enrollment has fallen sharply this year at The Way College of Emporia because of leadership changes and dissension among followers of the ministry of the numerous organization that runs the school.
The college, operated by The Way International, dropped from about 250 students last year to 90 students this semester, Thomas Jenkinson, college administrator, said. The school reported enrollments of about 500 in the 1970s.
Jenkinson said in an interview with The Emporia Gazette that there were no thoughts of closing the school.
The school awards certificates in biblical studies to students who complete 50 semester hours at The Way College after completing 80 hours at
a secular school.
The school's 90 students include 27 enrolled in the college program and 63 in the Way Corps leadership training program.
The college had been the main training center for The Way Corps, the non-denominational religious organization's leadership group, since the Emporia school was established in 1974.
"For the last 13 years, we have had the emphasis here. Now, that has flip-flopped. Jenkinson said. "The major training center,"
The college shifted some of its students to the headquarters in New Knoxville, Ohio, to make room for a remodeling of one of the dormitories in Emporia, he said. The Ohio campus has expanded and has a new
dormitory to house more students. The Way was founded by Victor
Dissension among followers is another reason that enrollment is down at the college, Jenkinson said.
The Way was founded by Victo Paul Wierwille, who died in 1885.
"That happens whenever you have a turnover of leadership after having a dynamic leader like Dr. Wierwile," he said. "You have internal questioning and people examining their needs."
The Emporia Gazette reported yesterday that John Lynn, former administrator of the Emporia school, was fired recently from his position as Way coordinator in the Washington, D.C., area.
The Gazette said Lynn confirmed in a telephone interview that he had been fired but declined to discuss the reason.
