Anderson said permanent signs announcing the state law would be placed at the entrances to all campus buildings.
Ashtrays in campus buildings, Anderson said, will not be removed.

liquor license that would change the Hawk into a private club.
Other bars are taking other routes to adapt to the new laws. Shane Lee, owner of Gammons, 1601 W. 23rd St., said he would not allow the new stairs to do away with all the places for young adults. Gammons will let it-20-year-olds come in on Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, he said. Patrons who are under the drinking age will have to leave identification at the door and wear bracelets and ink stampes while at Gammons.
Dane Lee, office manager of Gammons, said the bar did not fall under a Lawrence ordinance that prohibits minors from entering after 8 p.m. bars that sell cereal-malt beverages. Gammons gave up its cereal-malt license, Dane Lee said.
"I just don't want to cut out all the options for the students to dance and socialize," Shane Lee said.
Gammons, however, will remain a private club. Shane Lee said the club could not make the 30 percent food sales requirement.
His bar is not the only one. Many area bars — such as the Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St.; the Jazbahus, 926% Massachusetts St.; and the Sanctuary, 1401 W. Seventh St. — will remain private clubs because they cannot meet the food requirement.
But Roxanne Medlen, manager of Johnny's Tavern, 401 N. Second St., is not complaining about the food requirement. She said her bar had not required patrons to have a club card since July 1 because it had no
trouble exceeding the 30 percent food requirement.
Anticipating the change in drinking laws, Johnny's last November changed its open 3.2 beer status to private club status. Meden said the new licensing helped the club boost its sales.
'We're going to keep it like this for the last semester — we want to make this place as fun as possible. I really don't know what's going to happen to it.'

"Johnny's has been the hot spot all summer long — we are so full at nights, there's a line outside," she said.
"Right now, our menu is limited because we have a small kitchen," Medlen said. "We should have a full kitchen and a full menu in the next month."
Wallace said he was waiting for Douglas County voters to vote again. A clause in the liquor-by-the-drink amendment allows voters of a county to drop the 30 percent food requirement.
"I think the issue will pass — we need it to pass." Wallace said. "But it won't be automatic. It's going to take the people who are interested in this issue to make this work."

Watkins puts end to in-patient care
Hospital changes not expected to affect many students, officials say
BY ORIAN BARESCI
Staff writer
Watkins Hospital no longer allows patients to stay longer than 24 hours, so students needing more than a day of medical care now must go to other hospitals.
Charles Yockey, chief of staff at Watkins, said Watkins made the change May 17 to help it become accredited. The change will also help Watkins avoid offering the same services as Lawrence Memorial Hospital and won't affect many students, be said.
"Only 15 students last year couldn't be discharged in 24 hours," Yockey said.
Memorial first, and Lawrence ambulance drivers know which cases Watkins is equipped to handle.
James Strobl, director of Watkins,
said some procedures associated
with in-patient care, such as blood transfusions, were rarely performed at Watkins anyway. Such high-risk operations should be left to Lawrence Memorial, whose doctors perform these operations frequently, he said.
It's not safe for students for the hospital to perform procedures it doesn't often do, he said.
Yockey said Watkins still would perform the same services it did before in-patient care was eliminated and would continue to provide 99 percent of needed student health care.
The move establishes Watkins as a primary care facility, one which handles most medical situations but does not perform surgery or handle overnight cases. Patients who need medical care after 24 hours at Watkins will be transferred to Lawrence Memorial.
Lawrence Memorial do everything Watkins does and also perform services such as orthopedic surgery and trauma care. The highest level of hospitals, tertiary hospitals such as the University of Kansas Medical Center, are equipped to do heart transplants and brain surgery.
To be accredited as an in-patient hospital, Watkins would have to spend $350,000 to update overnight care equipment and revise record-keeping and documentation, but Watkins can be accredited as a primary health care facility now, without a large investment, Yockey said.
"We have to think in terms of the level of care needed at the facility." Yockey said. "This change is a necessity — to allocate our resources where we can do best."
Watkins staff because approval by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care is proof of high standards, Yockey said.
Not all hospitals are accredited; Watkins has not had accreditation since 1977, when 60 patients a day were treated as in-patients. Recently, the number has been closer to 60 a year, which hospital officials think is not enough to justify making the effort to be accredited as a hospital.
Becoming an accredited health care center is important for the
In addition to ending in-patient services, the hospital will be closed from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. during school vacations and the summer session.
The new hours and admissions were tried out this summer, and Yockey and Strobli say the hospital is unlikely to reverse itself now
