University takes sequestration hits
EMILY DONOVAN edonovan@kansan.com
As legislators have failed to enact a bill meant to balance the budget, 5.1 percent of federal funds have been cut across the board — amounting to $85 billion, effective Friday. Congress, long at a standstill debating between spending cuts and revenue increases, agreed upon sequestration as a penalty deadline.
"This will be a challenge for the University in terms of research efforts," said Kevin Boatright from Research and Graduate Studies. "But we have been making plans."
For education in the state of Kansas, these cuts translate into 500 children ages 3 to 5 losing access to early education through Head Start Services, $5.5 million cut from K-12 education, 8 teacher and aide jobs put at risk, 310 fewer college students receiving financial aid and 140 fewer students receiving work-study
jobs. All government services lose 5.1 percent of funding, including environmental and nutrition assistance for seniors, job-search assistance, law enforcement, military base operation funding, and public health.
At the University, federal research grants help fund studies conducted by graduate students in science and technology. Those students' salaries are written into the grant, meaning that those federal research grants hire graduate research students. Each federal agency will distribute further information advising how to negotiate budget cuts.
The federal fiscal year ends Sept. 30. A little more than six months are left to deflate the entire fiscal year's budget by 5.1 percent, meaning federal grants will most likely have to be reduced by 10
"We do not want the sequester to cause difficulty for any student between now and the end of the semester," Boatright said.
percent to balance the year.
"We have to proceed as though there is going to be no change to this between now and the end of the federal fiscal year in September," Boatright said. "We can't just wait and see what happens. We have to assume that this is going to continue."
A possible response to the suggested sequester is a decrease the amount of new grants offered without reducing existing awards.
Sequestration will be in effect until Congress is able to agree upon a budget that balances spending cuts and tax revenue.

"We're trying to communicate to people that this is serious," Boatright said. "It's something that we cannot ignore as a University in the research area. We have to take action to respond to what is happening in ways that are the least harmful to faculty, staff and students."

Taxidermy keeps pets memories alive forever
SLATER, Mo. — Growing up on the family farm, Anthony Eddy learned early on not to get too attached to animals, including household pets.
His devoted customers are a different story. Pet lovers across the country count on the Saline County taxidermist to faithfully preserve Brutus, Fluffy and other beloved companions for posterity. Even if it means shelling out thousands of dollars and waiting more than a year for the pets' return.
"They're very distraught, because
their child has died. For most people, this animal is his life," said Leslie
"Les"  Thurman Calvert, Eddy's office manager. "Some are kind of eccentric. But most of them are just like you and me. They don't want to bury or cremate them. They can't stand the thought. ... It helps them feel better about the loss."
The front showroom of Eddy's Wildlife Studio in downtown Slater is a testament to pet owners' perseverance. Life like dogs and cats of all sizes are scattered along the

floor, from a perky-looking Brittany spaniel to a regal Persian cat, a lone iguana and the stray cockatiel or two. Departed pets of all persuasions spend up to one year
in hulking, freeze-dry metal drums before they are painstakingly preserved and returned to their owners.
Eddy said his business is one of the few in the country to specialize in pet taxidermy and has a two-month waiting list.
A former high school chemistry and biology teacher, hog farmer and Air Force veteran, Eddy started out in traditional taxidermy, stuffing great horned owls and pheasants with the help of a local veterinarian. He originally used the freeze-dry technique to preserve mounted neck heads for hunters before realizing in the mid-1990s it could also work with pets.
Eddy, 64, compares his line of
work to the mortician's trade. He'll share broad details about the process with customers but likes to keep some mystery to the process and steer clear of the gross-out factor. He's quick to embrace the artistry of his craft, especially when it comes to the primping and prepping required once the internal organs and body fat are removed and the carcass is fully dry. Depending on the customer's preference, pets can be posed with a skyward gaze, an extended paw or with eyes closed, seemingly asleep.
"You just have a knack for it," he said. "it's like an artist painting a picture."
KUnited releases new platforms for election
Brandon Wocarc, a senior from Topeka, is Klinet'd's 2013 presidential candidate. Blaise Bengtson, a junior from Salina, is Klinet'd's 2013 vice-presidential candidate.
Kunited, a student senate coalition, has released four more platform initiatives for the 2013 campaign.
NEW AQUATIC CENTER AT THE REC
Klunited plans to work with KU Recreation Services to begin the process of funding and building a new aquatic center. This will be an expansion of the Ambler Student Recreation Fitness Center.
Woodard said the pool at Robinson Center is underused and has minimal availability. He said this addition will
be focused more on a recreational pool rather than just a lap pool.
INCREASED FREE PRINTING ON CAMPUS
The ability to print wherever and whenever is crucial for creating quality work and meeting deadlines, according to a KUnited press release. KUnited plans to increase the dollar amount of free printing students receive at the beginning of each semester.
CREATING A SMOKE-FREE CAMPUS
Kunited plans to work with university administration to restrict smoking on campus. They will also be collaborating with Unfiltered, a student tobacco-free campus initiative. Kunited plans to set up designated smoking areas. They also plan to establish
beneficial cessation services at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
Woodard said a smoke-free campus is more feasible than increasing restrictions. He said they want to encourage a healthier campus.
FULL-TIME LGBTQIA COORDINATOR
Hannah Barling
Klunited plans to secure funding to hire a full-time university coordinator. They are aiming to create a more inclusive campus for the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Questioning, Intersex and Asexual students.
"It's a necessity for students who identify with that community," Woodard said.
CORRECTION
Woodard said the university doesn't have the full-time resources that our peer institutions have.
Jack Martin, the Director of Strategic Communications at the Office of Public Affairs, said in an email that the University's law enforcement have determined that concealed weapons on campus do not increase safety. He also noted that, in this case, the University and Student Senate agree.
In the story titled "University continues to oppose concealed carry" published in the Thursday, Feb. 28 issue, the Kansan quoted a Student Senate member on the University's policy regarding concealed carry. However, only University officials can speak to what that the University as a whole does or does not support.
