A 19-year-old female University of Kansas student reported an indecent exposure in Fraser Hall Tuesday.
Unidentified man exposes himself in Fraser Hall lobby
According to a KU public safety office report, the victim was sitting in the front lobby of Fraser Hall reading at 4:45 p.m. when she noticed a white, heavy-set male in his twenties wearing black gym shorts exposing and touching himself. The suspect was standing behind a pillar about 18 feet away from the victim.
The suspect then looked at the victim and ran out of the building through the south door.
The victim said she did not get a good enough look at the suspect to identify him and chose not to pursue criminal charges.
Ellsworth Hall laundry service interrupted for improvements
Joe Hartigan
Ellsworth Hall residents must find another place to do their laundry after contractors shut down the basement for remodeling.
Rachel Rumble, assistant director for resident life, said the basement was blocked off so contractors could lay tile on the floors. With all the glue on the floor for the tile, Ellsworth had to shut down the floor, she said.
Rumple said this was part of the second phase of the remodeling the Department of Student Housing planned for Ellsworth. The project is scheduled to be completed by December 2003.
"We have been working closely with them and are confident thing will be finished soon," Rumble said.
Rumple suggested that Ellsworth residents go to any of the other residence halls on Daisy Hill to do laundry
from 7a.m.to 11p.m.
"I know it's not the most convenient, but that's the best option we have," Rumble said. "We can't really do anything until the contractors let us know it's ready."

Lawrence hospital closes psychiatric care ward
Mental care patients at the University of Kansas will no longer get local crisis treatment—Lawrence Memorial Hospital's inpatient psychiatric care ward closed Monday.
Counseling and Psychological Services, a psychiatric crisis service for students at the University, used to send those in need of emergency care to the hospital's inpatient ward. Frank DeSalvo, CAPS director, said because of the change, he wasn't sure where students could find help.
CAPS will contact area hospitals to arrange similar programs, DeSalvo said. But if a student cannot find transportation out of town,the cost of an ambulance would come out of the student's pocket,he said.
The KU Psychiatric Clinic is in a similar position. The clinic handles both students and Lawrence residents but cannot provide inpatient care when crises strike.

Clarification
An article in yesterday's University Daily Kansan needs clarification.
The article, "Miller, Watkins halls to drop suit," stated that the two scholarship halls were suing the University of Kansas and Bank of America. The halls are not the plaintiffs. Instead, 25 residents and former residents are plaintiffs in the suit.

Yes, but you still have to follow state fishing laws and buy a permit. They cost $13 and are available at most sporting goods stores. But beware. You won't catch anything worth eating, and try not to fall in.
