Student Employment Center plans job fair at Kansas Union
The Student Employment Center at the University of Kansas is sponsoring a Student Employment Job Fair from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 19, at the fourth floor lobby in the Kansas Union.
Sixteen employers from different University departments will be on hand for students looking for part-time work on campus this fall. Ten off-campus employers from Lawrence will also take part in the fair.
"I guess I'm excited that there are 16 campus groups, but there's going to be more competition because there are less jobs than in past years," Hartley said.
Ann Hartley, associate director of University Career and Employment Services, said that the fair would be down 10 employers from past years because of budget cuts.
Information on on-and off-campus jobs can also be found on the University Career and Employment Services Web site, www.ku.edu/~uces.

The Kansas Humanities Council gave a $10,000 grant to the Hall Center for the Humanities at the University of Kansas to develop "This Day in Kansas History: An Online History of the State of Kansas."
History Web site outlines important Kansas events
Victor Bailey, Hall Center director and professor of history at KU, said the Web site would contain 50 main articles which will be featured every week. It will also include an estimated 300 smaller events compiled by Henry Fortunato, the project's editor-in-chief.
A KU history Web site put the Kansas project on hold, but it is now ready to launch.
Bailey said the Hall Center developed a relationship with the Kansas State Historical Society from the start.
"We don't see this as a KU project," he said. "We've always seen this as a state project."

"This Day in Kansas History" will begin in mid-2004, the 150th anniversary of the Kansas territory.
A new Web site will highlight important events in Kansas' history.
University offers protection from computer virus attacks
Starting this semester, new virus protection software will be available free to the KU community from KU Information Services.
However, the new software is not a response to viruses that have attacked computers worldwide recently.
Allison Lopez, external relations coordinator for KU Information Services, said the change was part of the University's ongoing security updates.
"When you have a network as rich in resources as KU, security is necessary," Lonez said.
Lopez said viruses such as Lovsan would make the security upgrade even more important.
Faculty, staff and students can use the new software, Sophos Anti-Virus, on private computers as well as computers owned by the University.
To download the new software, students can visit www.ku.edu/acs/ virus or contact Information Services. Users can switch to Sophos from the University's current virus protection software, Command Antivirus, anytime before 2004.

Volunteer, Don't Choke on Smoke
Most smokers take their first drag at age 10, a fact that alarms KU medical student Katherine Mayer. To help keep kids, and their families, stay smoke-free, Mayer and other volunteers teach area fourth graders about the health hazards of smoking. Thanks to the Don't Choke on Smoke program, more than 2,000 children a year discover that smoking is one killer they can avoid.
KU First: Invest in Excellence made it possible. Donations to KU First, the University's $500 million fund-raising campaign, help fund the Kansas Cancer Institute's Don't Choke on Smoke program.
