Smokers ignore smoking policy
By DEB MILLEJ
Complaints about smoking in nonresidential buildings on campus have prompted a reissuance of the policy that controls smoking in those buildings.
Del Shakel, executive vice chancellor,
said yesterday that the smoking policy
had been removed.
"We've been receiving complaints from students about teachers smoking in class, too."
students about other students," Shankel said.
THE SMOKING POLICY was passed by the University Council Feb. 28, 1976. It states that smoking is permitted only in the following:
—offices; corridors and restrooms that aren't carpeted; areas set aside for food service and eating, except those designated as nonsmoking areas; and seminar rooms, if no member objects, and if ashtrays are available.
THE POLICY ALSO offers the following clarifications:
—Smoking isn't permitted in Hoch Auditorium, Wesboro auditoriums or any other auditorium on campus during any class or public assembly, including concerts Smoking in these areas and in Allen House is permitted only in the outer lobbies.
— In classrooms, smoking is permitted only in seminars and small classes of fewer
than 15 people if no member objects and if
atebrays are available.
In the smoking policy passed by the University, the reasons for the rules are: the Kansas Fire Prevention Code says it is illegal to smoke in places of public health or safety; the Kansas Legislature reinforces the Code; the Surgical General of the United States has declared that smoking is dangerous to health; University property is suffering damage from cigarette burns; and some drivers of the community are allergic to smoke.

Judy Kroger, director of the Consumer Affairs Agency (CAA), said yesterday that the number of complaints indicated a shortage. The price of raisins went up four cent per week and several times this week.
Consumers may face a shortage of raisins this winter, this week's food survey shows.
Kroeger said that she didn't know what had caused the shortage, but that people who wanted raisins for holiday baking might need to buy them now.
This week's survey also indicated a continual downward trend in sugar prices. In CAA's first survey Sept. 6, sugar was the second highest price among the average was $9 cents for a five pound bag.
Buchholz, an engineer, inspects every building on campus regularly for fire hazards and irregularities with the fire code.
This week's survey differs from previous surveys because it shows more meat and vegetables.
Part of the reason for the restriction of smoking in places such as Ioch Auditorium is safety. This is especially true because of the Baker fire, Shankel said, referring to a fire Aug. 29 at a Baker University fraternity that killed five persons.
Kroeger said she made the change so the survey would better indicate the types of people in the community.
SINCE THE BAKER fire, strict inspections of University residential housing have been conducted by the Kansas fire marshal. But inspection of nonresidential homes is restricted according to Harry Buchholz, facilities analyst for the office of facilities planning.
Once he finds a problem, Buchholz said,
he reports it to Max Lucas, University
director of facilities planning. From then
on, he sees that budgets are budgeting
money to correct the problem.

NOTES ON BEEF SURVEY: The average cost a serving column (taken from information provided by the Cooperative Extension Service at K-State) takes into account the cost of waste in a cut of meat. For example, bone is ground only to three or four ounces, ground into thick roast beef bone, but because ground beef is less, it is 18 cents less a serving.
"If a teacher is smoking in class and you want to complain, go to the department head. If it's the department head that's smoking, then go to the dean," he said.
THE STATE LAW passed by the Kansas Legislature reinforces the Kansas Fire Prevention Code and states that there is a risk of fire in areas posted with "no smoking" signs.
Shankel said it was everyone's job to enforce this law.
In addition to Buchholz's inspections, the State Fire Marshal comes to the KU campus every June to inspect campus buildings, Buchholz said.
