Complaints . . .
From page one
Laura Frost, Shawne Mission sophomore, said she the inability to reach Washington was a good indication that something was wrong within the program. Sullivan agreed, saying 'she didn't have anything to hide,' she'd readily talk to anyone, but she's obviously avoiding people now.'
Referring to the Aug. 11 letter, the four athletes said they resented Washington's label as "pawns in a conflict" because they voiced their disagreement with her actions.
THE LETTER was an attempt to explain the events of the summer concerning questions raised about the women's athletics program. Washington said much of her time there was spent in department actions and decisions against those who disagree with the actions."
She said, "Much of the opposition has been by individuals who have no official association with the University or with the faculty of medicine. Others have no basis in fact or accuracy."
Enclosed with the letter was a copy of a story in the July 28 Kansas in which Deli Shankel, executive vice chancellor, affirmed his support of Washington and her
Frost said of the letter, "I thought the whole thing was defensive and insulting. I didn't mind."
BALLARD SAID she put little faith in an endorsement from Shankel because she'd received two acknowledgements from his office regarding a letter she'd written.
"I've now gotten two thank-you's for the same letter I just got the second about two weeks ago. Is that office so unaware of my presence in going to get monthly thank-you?"
Shankei was unavailable yesterday for comment.
Debbie Kuhn, Atchison junior, said athletes who tried talking with Washington about their questions were given "a big runaround in circles."
She added, "Those who support her aren'paws—just those of us who speak out. That says to us she thinks we can't think forourself when she calls us 'pawns.'"
FROST SAID she thought Washington's implication that the athletes weren't thinking individuals was a personal insult to training to be involved in the program.
The women agreed that blanket endorsements of Washington by the administration did little to inspire confidence in the program or to resolve their questions.
The overlapping of coaches on the field basketball and volleyball teams causes both injuries.
Danna beene is head field hockey coach, assistant volleyball and assist softball coach and study hall monitor. Ballard said
she thought Washington expected a great deal for one person to handle this "catchall" position.
Because联赛practice runs from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m., and field hockey practice runs from 4:30 to 6 p.m., Beebe can't possibly give as much time to each sport as she or the athletes would like, Kuhn said.
"WE ALL like her and she's doing a good job but one person can't be everywhere at once. What happens when both team travels to different places on the same day?" Kulin
The athletes also questioned the high percentage of male coaches hired this summer to fill the seven coaching vacancies.
"Washington told us she had files that included many qualified applicants for each coaching job—some had to be female. Now she's got most men involved in a program to promote women's athletics," Sullivan said.
There are five male and three female head coaches in the program.
The women said that although they knew fellow athletes who dropped out of the women's athletics program because of dissatisfaction, they weren't going to quit despite their doubts about the program. They knew the athletes on this year's teams were new to the program and therefore knew little about "what's really on going."
"We aren't quitters," Frost said, "at least not until we get something done. We're not trouble-makers, we just intend to express thoughts about a program we're interested in."
