K-State groups plan to protest
By BRUCE SCHREINER Staff Reporter
Several student organizations at Kansas State University are planning a protest before President Reagan's speech there tomorrow, c move one K-State professor says in a shrapn Reagan's concept of Kansas hospi-
tally. John Exdell, an assistant professor of philosophy at the university, said recently that the protest would be added into several demonstrations, all beginning about 8 a.m. and continuing until Reagan delivers the Landon Lecture at 11 a.m. in Ahearn Field House.
"The lecture series is meant to be an education branch for K-State students," said Bill Rogenmoser, K-State student body president, explaining why a K-State identification card was necessary.
KU STUDENTS who want to attend Reagan's speech are in for a disappointing students must have a knowledge identification card to enter Alaweir Field House.
GROUPS TO BE represented in the peaceful demonstration are The Other Manhattan Project for the Nuclear Freeze, the Human Rights Coalition, the Friends of the Earth and several women's groups, Exdell said.
Exdell said the protest would focus on a cross section of issues, including the
nuclear arms战面, defense policy and budget in education and entitlement programs.
Some Lawrence residents also intend to participate in protesting administration policies Clark Coan a KU graduate, said the student greet Reagle Renew later that day in Topeka with protest signs. He said he would continue recruiting protesters.
But the Lawrence Coalition for Peace and Justice, which has pressed for bilateral disarmament, is not preparing any formal protest during Reagan's visit to Kansas, said John Linscheid, chairman of the group.
EXDELL SAID the protesters wanted to shatter conceptions that K-State would guarantee a warm reception for Reagan.
"Kansas State has a reputation of offering a refuge for a president who is in need of a display of support in times of trouble," Exdell said.
In citing an example, Exdell said
former President Nixon, who was under extreme pressure to withdraw American forces from Vietnam, was removed during his 1970 address at K-State.
Protest leaders hope to accomplish two objectives from the demonstrations, which will feature creative designs and placard displays. Exdell said.
"We want faculty and students to reconsider their support of Reagan," he said. "Too many at K-State unthinkingly follow Reagan.
"ALSO, WE can communicate to the president himself. In 1969, Nixon was deterred from escalating the Southeast border by nuclear weapons because of protests."
If the president is stirred by the protest, it will be through accounts his aides give him. Reagan will not see the demonstrations because his point of entrance into the field house will obstruct his view of the protest.
Exdell said protest coordinators opted to plead their case to the thousands entering Ahearn Field House rather than to the president.
Protests of the administration's policies will not end with the beginning
After Reagan's speech, state politicians and leaders of several state organizations will comment on the speech or on Reagan policy in general, said Jim Peterson, a K-State graduate and a coordinator of the session.
AMONG the people scheduled to analyze the speech is Lawrence attorney Lance Burr. Democratic candidate attorney general, Peterson said.

House. ...
Peterson said many of the speakers were opponents of administration policies, but said no plans had been made for rebuffal by Reagan support-
Although some policies protested today coincide with those of the 1960s — including ending the threat of nuclear war, it was the only comparison to be drawn
"These are going to be ordinary people who are going to make a real effort to air the issues," Exdell said.
"Our pury effort won't be viewed as an unbalanced approach to his (Reagan's) powerful show. "Peterson said, "If you want to do something wouldn't turn them away, though."
Associate journalism dean resigns post
Her resignation is effective immediately, she said.
susanne Shaw, associate dean of the School of Journalism, announced yesterday she was resigning to become publisher of the Coffeville Journal.
"It was the toughest decision I ever made. It was very difficult, but I consider this the opportunity of a lifetime." she said.
DEL BRINKMAN, dean of the journalism school, agreed.
"It's not every day that you're offered a job as publisher of a newspaper," he said.
Shaw said she was offered the job late last week and said she made her decision then. She began her new job yesterday but will travel back to the University to clear up some odds and ends, she said.
SHAW SAID it was tough for her to leave the School of Journalism and Brinkman, in particular.
"He is the best boss I'll ever have," she said.
Brinkman said, "I think that it'll be difficult to replace Susanne Shaw because she was so much a part of the
school and so much a part of the activities of the school. She took great personal pride in the accomplishments of the school and of her students."
Snow, a2, came to KU in 1971 as an assistant professor. She earned degrees in both education and journalism at KU.
SHAW RECEIVED the H. Bernard Fink Award for distinguished teaching in 1975.
She said she hoped she would always be a part of the School of Journalism in some way.
the journalism faculty committee met yesterday to discuss the problem of finding someone to cover Shaw's responsibilities, Brinkman said.
"What we are likely to face is that we won't be able to cover them all," he said. "We're limited because this is a year where vacant faculty positions have not been authorized to be filled."
Brinkman said he received authorization to cover Shaw's teaching duties but said he had not sought authorization from the school board. Ior administrative responsibilities.
