Question of the Day
KUInfo exists to answer all your questions about KU and life as a student. Check out KUInfo's Web site at kunoinfo.libku.edu,叫它 at 864-3508 or visit it in person at Anzuchtz Library.
Joe Douglas, Lawrence resident, here as "I am Loaded" was one of the "Billionaires for Bush" who held a gathering on Massachusetts Street Saturday, sarcastically protesting President Bush. The "Billionaires for Bush" poked fun at Bush's politics and sung in chorus "All we are saying. is we want it all."
Advisers are assigned through departments, which means that your department office is the best place to call. If you are an honors student, try calling the Honors Department. If this is your first year in a freshman-entry program you will be assigned an adviser in your department. All freshmen in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, however, must be advised by someone at the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center.

KU students slated to leave for Kuwait next week
Non-traditional KU student Paul Van Cleve was honored at a ceremony in Fort Riley last Friday with about 500 other soldiers.
Military dignitaries said farewell to the troops and gave thanks for defending the country in the deployment ceremony, Van Cleve said.
Van Cleve, a specialist with the Army National Guard, finished two months of intensive training in Fort Riley.
The Lawrence senior will be supply ing necessities such as water and fuel to troops, but he said his training had been extensive.
He said he had essentially been trained to perform a drive-by shooting, with a machine gun and how to take over a town.
Van Cleve will most likely leave for Kuwait within the next week, but the exact date is unknown, he said.
After Kuwait, Van Cleve said he would go to Iraq within a few days or even a couple of months. He said he would be stationed at the Sunni Triangle, an area northwest of Baghdad.
Van Cleve said he didn't know when he would be back in Kansas because
his enlistment had been involuntarily extended until the year 2031.

First-time voters in Douglas County will need to bring some form of identification with them to the polls if they have not already done so, said Marni Penrod, deputy clerk of elections for Douglas County.
Identification a must for first time Douglas county voters
COUNTY
That identification, if it contains an address, must be the same as the address where the person is registered, she said.
The rule applies to anyone voting in Douglas County for the first time, even if they have voted before somewhere else.
However, if the ID does not contain an address, it is still acceptable.
If someone already showed some form of ID when registering to vote, then the person doesn't need to do it again, she said.
Also, there is a "verified list" from the Department of Motor Vehicles that can be used to verify the identity of someone, but Penrod said that students typically weren't on that list.
Acceptable forms of identification include a KUID.
"For students, that would probably be easiest," Penrod said. "Most of them will probably be carrying it around with them anyway."
Other forms of ID without an address that would be acceptable to show at the polls include a military ID or passport.
Acceptable forms of ID with an address include a drivers license, a non-drivers license ID card, a paycheck or stub, utility bill, bank statement or any other government document with an address, Penrod said.

Stations refuse to air Kobach interview
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Kobach was scheduled to appear in a taped interview with the Rev. Jerry Johnston on KMCI-TV, KSHB-TV and PAX TV yesterday.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Three Kansas City television stations have decided not to run a half-hour program featuring Republican congressional candidate Kris Kobach because of concerns about equal-time requirements.
General managers at all three stations decided there wasn't enough time to provide Kobach's Democratic opponent in the race for Kansas' 3rd Congressional District, incumbent Rep. Dennis Moore, with a similar broadcast opportunity.
The interview, dealt heavily with the topic of gay marriage, which is one of Kobach's central themes.
The program would have run in Johnston's normal time slot, paid for by his church. Johnston said Moore was invited to participate in the interview, but declined.
"If it came at least a week or two ago, we probably could have aired it and given Dennis Moore equal time at the equal rate," said Frank Barajas, general manager of PAX TV. "There will not be another Sunday time that we can give them."
"It seems to me as if they have an agenda," Moore said. "I'm not sure it's going to be very productive for me to be on the show, honestly."
"This is not a candidate use, which would trigger equal-time provisions under the FCC rules," Kobach said.
But Kobach took issue with the show's cancellation.
ON THE RECORD
A 20-year-old KU student reported to Lawrence police that someone had stolen a laptop around 6 p.m. from 9:30 p.m. in the 1200 block of Ohio Street. His loss is estimated around $1,200.
