Bonds to be paid off Students to pay lower tuition
By JAN BOUTTE Staff Reporter
Students waiting in the seemingly endless lines at Allen Field House during fall enrollment have some consolation. At the end of the last line, the bill will be $7 less than tuition and fees last year.
John Patterson, University compro-
roller, said that because the University of Kansas will soon retire the Jesse Hall and Watkins Memorial Hospital, KU no longer owes money for been and was able to reduce fees.
THE RETIREMENT OF
Wescoe bonds Sept. 1, 1982 will save
students $4.50, and the Watkins
funds $3.50, for each off of
the迫 of fiscal year 1983, will
save each student $4 from the student campus privilege fee.
The initiation of a maintenance and repair fee for Watkins Hospital will eat up $1.50 of the savings from the retirement of that bond.
Another cost of University life,
parking permits, will not increase
this year. Students can purchase
Hoch Auditorium during enrollment.
Tuition for Kansas residents dropped from spring 1982's rate of $459 to $452 for the fall 1982 semester. Non-resident students will pay $1,110 this fall instead of the $1,177 charged last spring.
Campus parking has been restricted since Monday, and permits have been on sale since Aug. 18, said Don Kearns, KU parking director.
Some students attending KU will not have to set foot into Allen this
week. They enroll through special, non-traditional programs, avoiding the crowds and lines most students must find their ways through.
Education, engineering and nursing professionals can take advantage of courses offered through Teleten Educational Network, through which KU and the other five Regents Schools offer continuing education courses through telephone contact.
Lawrence residents are offered special access to University courses through the easy access system. Easy access is for non-degree-seeking students, and enrollment is accomplished with only a phone call.
Other students, including some new students and students in certain schools, had the option to pre-enroll during the spring or summer.
Students to talk about foreign study
About 85 students returning from overseas study programs in 1981-82 will gather this weekend to discuss their experiences and provide advice on re-entering American culture.
Participants of KU programs in 16 countries have been invited to attend a returned students' meeting from 1 to 5 October at the Council Room of the Kansas University.
IN THE EARLY afternoon the entire group will discuss general topics applying to all participants, such as how to survive "reverse culture shock" upon returning to the United States, how to integrate the study abroad experience
into an American lifestyle, and how to transfer credits from foreign universities.
Later in the afternoon sessions will focus on individual countries or geographic regions, giving students an opportunity to discuss specific programs and to offer advice for future participants.
Sessions will be led by the staff of the Office of Study Abroad: Anita Herzfeld, director; Mary Ryan, assistant directive and Ann Getting, study abroad adviser.
The Office of Study Abroad, 108 Strong Hall, administers study abroad
programs on six continents. With the language departments, it sponsors seven summer language institutes in England and humanities institute in Great Britain.
KU and other college-level students in good academic standing are eligible to apply in their sophomore year for study abroad programs, normally held during the junior year. Freshmen and sophomores are eligible to participate in summer programs and some academic year programs.
In most cases, there is a language requirement, but programs in English-
[or other languages] are often used.

WASHINGTON-A recently introduced bill would require students who receive federal financial aid to maintain a "C" average, but the legislation will probably not make it through Congress this year because of the little time remaining before adjournment of the session.
Bill would cut aid to failing students
By United Press International
The bill was introduced early last week by Sen. Dennis Nickle, R-Oka-
and Claiborne Pell, D-R1., in response to a General Accounting Office report released last December. The report showed that about 20 percent of students receiving federal aid had less than the 2.0 grade point average required for graduation, and about 10 percent had less than a 1.5 GPA.
The report covered about 5,300 student transcript at 24 colleges around the country.
Under the proposed legislation, a student earning less than a "C" or its
equivalent after the first year would be placed on probation for the next grading period. If the student fails to bring his grades up to at least a "C" then, he or she would lose eligibility for federal student aid programs.
To again receive federal aid, the student would have to earn a "C" average for two consecutive academic terms. Exceptions would be made for students in the first semester of the family or who experienced difficult personal or emotional problems.
