Business profs show art
After working with numbers all day, some business professors relax by
These faculty members and families of other faculty members are showing their talents to the rest of the School of Business in an art exhibit that opened Sunday at the school's placement office.
Jan Gaumitz, organizer of the exhibit and wife of Jack Gaumitz, professor of business, said the exhibit was organized so students could learn more about faculty members. The exhibit, which will be on display until Nov. 19, is also open to families of faculty members, she said.
"Sometimes students tend to forget that faculty members are human, too, and have other interests," said Lawrence Sherrn, professor of business.
Wiley Mitchell, director of graduate programs for the school, said the exhibit also might get others interested in some of the hobbies that were shown.
JAN GAUMNITZ, who is an artist,
said she got the idea for the exhibit
from talking to faculty members. She
said she learned that others who were
interested in art had talent they were
willing to share.
Two of the faculty members, Sherrn and Gordon Fitch, have photography in the display, Jan Guarnitz said. She said this prompted her to think about having a photography exhibit next year.
Nine artists, including four faculty members, have some form of art in the exhibit, she said. The forms of art represented in the exhibit are painting, needlepoint, photography, knitting and metal work.
Sherr said that he had been taking photographs since his youth but that he just started developing his own pictures 10 years ago. This is the first time any of his work has been exhibited in public, he said.
Mitchell's contribution to the exhibit is needlepoint that he does with his wife, Gwen. He said they learned needlepoint 10 years ago when they visited Canada because it was popular there. All their designs are from Norway, he says.
Volunteers to clean lake area
THE FACULTY ART exhibit is part of a continuous art exhibit at the placement office, Jan Gaumnitz said. The office, which opened two years ago, has had an exhibit by Lawrence artists for the past year, she said.
Woodsy the Owl, 200 Girl Scouts and about 150 other Lawrence residents will combine efforts this weekend to give the Clinton Lake area a thorough fall cleaning, the organizer of the project said yesterday.
Sherri Ladner of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers said the cleaning would be the first the lake had received since it opened two years ago.
The lake's maintenance crew could not clean the entire 27,000 acre park by itself, she said. Because of this, she asked the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce to help promote a cleanup drive.
About 400 volunteers will start picking up litter from the fish and wildlife preserve surrounding the
7,000 acre lake at 10 a.m. Saturday, she said.
LADNER SAID "Woody," the anti-pollution owl who speaks out against litter with the slogan, "Give a hoot, give it back." The lake to help promote the cleann
As an added incentive, the Army Corps has asked a local recycling plant to have a representative at the lake to collect bottles that the volunteers find, she said.
Ladner said some lakes in Missouri held cleanup projects annually in which the state's parks board had been
"We're thrilled with 400," she said. "There are still plenty of areas we can reach." She wasn't too though, and we're hoping a lot of people will decide to just come out and help."
Local college plans events for holiday
The morning service, to take place at 6 a.m. at the cemetery on the southwest side of the school grounds, begins a daylong program that includes tours, native American food sales, movies and a play.
The general public is invited to attend the celebration, which will end with an intertribal dance at dusk Friday evening.
A sunrise ceremony on the campus of Haskell Indian Junior College will open American Indian Day celebrations in Lawrence Friday.
Lew Liewellley, director of student activities at Haskell, said the tours would cover the main buildings on campus and would last from 10 a.m.
THE MOVIE "More than Bows and Arrows" will be shown on the hour from noon until 4 p.m. The film portrays Indian contributions to the arts, sciences and literature in America and other parts of the world.
At noon, a rock band composed of Haskell students will play, and the Thunderbird Theater will present a skit, "Coyote Was Coming Along." also
Legends and story telling will be part of an open forum on culture and tradition, which will be from 5 p.m. until 8 p.m.
Indian sports and games will be demonstrated as well.

Cooperative program praised
A 4-year-old cooperative program between the University of Kansas and Haskell Indian Junior College has been established to Duane Evans, its field director.
By BONAR MENNINGER
Staff Reporter
Through the American Indian Human Services Training Program, Indian students transfer to the School of Social Welfare at KU after completing two years of course work at Haskell
"The program is actually the first attempt to cooperate with Haskell, other than just going out and providing services for the school," said Evans, extension associate at the School of Social Welfare. "We have developed a program that is directly beneficial to the students."
After earning a bachelor's degree at the University, students in the program are qualified to work with foster children in adoptive homes, teenagers in detention and treatment centers, the handicapped and social problems such as alcoholism, drug addiction, mental illness and imprisonment.
The exchange program is designed to develop skills in Indian students that lead to employment in a broad range of human service systems, Evans said.
EVANS SAID that in addition to the 12 Indian students involved in the program at KU this year at various academic levels, two KU graduate students have served as Social Welfare were now doing practices, or internships, at Haskell.
A Haskell student now enrolled in the program said that though she enjoyed the program, she thought
teachers at Haskell were more inclined to get involved with students than teachers at KU.
"Teachers here are more impor-
mal, but I guess it is because there are so many students," said Jans Rentley, the student, who is a Shawnee Indian originally from Norman Okla.
Evans said a problem often faced by Indian students coming to KU was the many new situations to which students must adjust.
To counteract transition problems for Indians at KU, the office of minority affairs conducts a 'survival workshop' each November, which helps prepare students for situations might encounter at the University.
“Haskell is a much smaller school, a more homogeneous kind of community,” he said. “There is a kind of identification there that is not available at KU. We feel the workshop comes to us here so that students know once they come up here, they are not all alone.
VERNEL SPEARMAN, acting director of minority affairs, said Haskell's small size provided an intellency often lacking at KU.
"We have found in our office,
sometimes, that the frustration is so great that some of the Indian students will turn around and go back home. So we would like to be able to tell them where we encounter when they come here."
In addition to the workshop in November, the office of minority affairs will sponsor a Haskell talk with Dr. Deborah Koehler from various kU departments
will visit Haskell for a day and supply information to interested Haskell students about educational programs at KU.
Spearman a letter was sent to all second-year students at Haskell inviting them to the presentation, which is in its fifth year.
Despite the success of the existing exchange programs, officials at both schools say there are no immediate opportunities between the schools.
The president of Haskell, Gerald Gipp, said the current concern of the Haskell administration was to concentrate on upgrading some of the educational programs at that school where expanding interaction with KU.
JERRY HUTCHISON, associate vice chancellor for academic affairs, said recently that as long as growth and expansion occurred in a natural and uncontroversial way, he thought the program was a good idea.
"Neither institution needs to lean on each other for too much help, because they are both capable of being what they have." "The institution resources they have," Hutchison said.
"We are very concerned about the interaction that takes place between KU and Haskell because we don't want to be isolated; if we are, our students don't take full advantage of the resources that are available in the community and also at KU." Gipp said.
"Right now we are just dealing with some very fundamental things here, but again I think the potential is just tremendous."
