PATRONIZE KANSAN ADVERTISERS
KU Continues to Grow
KU will provide a major employment opportunity for area architects and construction companies for several years to come in order to keep pace with the current five-year building plan and meet expansion needs still far in the future.
According to Keith Lawton, vice chancellor for operations, the university's five-year building plan is in full swing.
ALTHOUGH ITS auditorium may not be completed, new Robinson Gymnasium will be ready to use by commencement this year. New Fraser Hall will be finished approximately a year from this January. New botany research facilities are also well under way on the west side of Iowa Street near the Holiday Inn.
Lawton said students will be able to move into Oliver Hall, the new dormitory going up on Naismith Drive down from Allen Field House, by this coming September.
He said that a new biological science building has already been funded and the architect is now working on the plans. Construction will start before next year and the tentative completion date
Students Relate Experiences in Serving Others
From the slums of cities to the open spaces of the Colorado Rockies there are opportunities to be of service.
Opportunities for summer camp jobs were also discussed. The jobs include work in camps for mentally retarded, under-privileged and over-privileged children.
LESLIE JOHNSON. Wilsey junior, spoke of his experience with Judson Memorial Church in New York City. He said he held a job during the day and attended a seminar and worked in the church at night.
He said the church was unique in that it had the first off-off-Broadway theater in New York. "They brought the wrath of the press down on them a few years ago by having a nude dance in the sanctuary," he said.
She said "no special training" was required where she worked. The two requirements were "interest and emotional stability."
"Last year they almost brought down the press again by having a cocktail party as a get-acquainted function. They avoided it by having the party in an apartment near the church."
is around February, 1968. The planned site for the new building is where the present Robinson Gym annex is located.
Construction on a new humanities building should start about a year from this February, Lawton said. It will be built on the sites now occupied by Robinson Gym and Haworth Hall. The building will be built in halves because old Robinson will be torn down before Haworth and they want to start work as soon as possible. After Haworth is razed the second half will be started.
The famous status of Jimmy Green before KU's law school cost $45,000, almost as much as Green Hall's $50,000. Until a few years ago, the monument was the only life-sized, full length statue of a faculty member on any American campus
JOHNSON SAID THE church operated the seminar program by itself. Participants had to find their own jobs, though he said the church would give them leads.
KU Methodist and Episcopalian students presented this idea last night in a discussion of summer service opportunities held at the Wesley Foundation.
It Cost a Lot
ALTHOUGH NOT DEFINITELY formulated, plans are on the five-year agenda for a new physical science building east of the present Malott Hall. Also, one and possibly two new dormitories are planned for construction near new Oliver Hall, Lawton said.
Bea Baxter, Little River senior, also participated by holding a job in a hospital for the mentally retarded in California. She said she worked in a YMCA program for trying out careers.
He continued by saying there are possible Kansas Union additions coming up in the next five years and the badly needed football stadium addition will come
"YOU'D BE NUTS if you didn't do something of service in the summer. . You see so much you don't come into contact with in a normal middle-class neighborhood." Mary Newcomb, Independence, Miss., graduate student said.
He said New York was to his liking and the value of the seminar was in the people he met. Judson Church is located in Greenwich Village, he said.
Because most of the classes now being held in the Strong annexes will be transferred to new Fraser and the new humanities building, the annexes will be razed. Oread Hall, the wooden H-shaped dormitory on the west side of the stadium, will also be torn down in the near future. The site is a good possibility for another dormitory, said Lawton.
