University Daily Kansan, November 1, 1982 Page 5 HOPE nominee leaves bed to participate in ceremony When HOPE finalist Joyce Jones came to the HOPE ceremony before Saturday's game, she did not leave from her home. She sat in her bed in Lawrence Memorial Hospital. Jones has been in the hospital for about a week with what she said doctors thought was a herniated disc. When something is herniated, it is protruding through a natural or accidental opening in the walls of its natural cavity. Jones said she went to the HOPE ceremony for the students who had voted for her and because being a HOPE finalist was a great honor. She was in the second time she had been a HOPE finalist. Jones said she had managed to get to the ceremony after she had been allowed to leave the hospital and after her sister, Alleen Nesmith, had made arrangements to get her to Memorial Stadium. "THEY GAVE me a two-hour pass and doped me up," she said. Lindsey Welch, HOPE committee co-chairman, said she had not learned that Jones was coming to the ceremony until Saturday morning. "That morning her sister called and told me she could come. We were very excited," she said. If Jones had not been able to come to the ceremony, her sister would have stood in for her, Welch said. Welch said a chair and a box for Jones' feet to rest on had been provided for her at the stadium because of her bad back Jones said she was glad she had been able to attend the ceremony. can do. You don't get that excitement from reading the book. It has to be pointed out," he From page one Hope He said he never kept his lecture notes; rather, he writes new lectures every year. "I like to think I go into class fresh everytime. I'm not using notes I wrote two or three or 10 years ago. I'm always keeping my eyes and ears open for things I can use in my case," he said. "It tends to relieve the monotony. The students aren't quite sure what's going to happen any one day. It shouldn't be the same thing everyday," he said. Over the years, he said, he has learned different techniques and tricks to teach students better and to capture their attention. For instance, he asked his students up and down the aisles, asking students questions. BRICKER SAID teaching large classes was a disadvantage, but he tried to work around that. Chemistry 184, for example, usually has about 800 students. names of his students, and 'then their faces. He records grades himself to help him remember names and to keep track of how students are doing, he said. He said he tried to become familiar with the A standard practice is his photography all the students so he can become familiar with the techniques. "The big difficulty is treating the student who comes to see me at 5:30 in the aftermoon with the same courtesy and understanding I have for the person who comes at 8:30 in the morning." he said. "I seldom lose my temper with a student. I try very hard to t. realize students should have sense of humor." EACH STUDENT needs something different from a teacher, Bricker said. "Students come in to see me all the time. I never treat two students the same." he said. never let two students the same. he said. Some students, he said, need to be bawled out in order to motivate them, and others need to be patted on the back. Bricker said teaching was harder now than when he started because more of a gap existed between the abilities of each student. "Today, a lot of students have never learned the basics of writing, arithmetic and listening to a lecture and being able to pick out what is important," he said. "You cannot teach just for the top 25 percent, and you can't teach just for the lower 25 percent. I try to adjust my teaching so that everybody gets something." HE SAID he still remained in touch with many students, including one he had taught 30 years ago. a colleague in the chemistry department, a graduate of Bricker University, is a former student of his. Bricker said. "There's no greater satisfaction than to see one of my students excel." he said. Bricker said he would miss the daily instruction his students when he retired, but he wore socks and was sorry. "I feel very strongly that we ought to let some people younger take over and get some new ideas, new blood. Let someone else take the daily strain of teaching," he said. Revenue From page one Nitcher said KU could only wait and hope that it would not have to face any more reductions.

Revenue collections for October have shown improvement from the past three months, Duncan said, and collections for the month were $4.5 million above collections for last October. "That's encouraging, but it certainly doesn't mean the problems are over." Duncan said. The biggest drop for the state has been in corporate income taxes, which were down about 27 percent from the October estimates.
