The staff of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center welcomed students back to school with an open house to inform them about the center's resources and services. "We have an open house every year," said Barbara Ballard, associate dean of students and center director. "We usually catch people walking through and give them a chance to know what's going on and make them aware of what we do." Staff members distributed a calendar of events for the semester, which includes programs ranging from self-defense techniques to automobile-maintenance classes. The center also offers services that include sexual-assault prevention "We usually catch people walking through and give them a chance to know what's going on and make them aware of what we do." Barbara Ballard director of the emily taylor women's resource center education and information about women's issues. "I went to some of the programs a few years ago," said Kim Beeler, assistant director of admissions. "I know there are a lot of women's issues that I should be informed about that I know they would be a great resource for." The center also provides resources about resume writing and financial aid for women. "I just wanted to get some information," said Carolyn Wright, Brooklyn Park, Minn., freshman, who stopped at the open house on her way to class. "I'm interested in the financial-aid program and writing resumes. I've written one before, but I don't remember much of it." Robyn Tiffany, Lenexa sophomore, stops to talk with Barbara Ballard, associate dean of students and director of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center. The center held an open house yesterday to inform students about available resources. Photo by Lvnn Kalender/KANSAN Although the center focuses on women, Ballard said that men often came into the office. Yesterday, a few men mingled at the open house. "I think often men won't come in unless they need something for class," she said. "But once they come in, they come back because they know some of the things we have, or they will refer a friend of theirs to our office."
