Spotlight on Organizations KU for Uganda BY MEGAN HIRT On its list of 10 things that the average person can do for northern Uganda, the Uganda Conflict Action Network suggests that college students start organizations to educate and empower their campus communities. The Web site then names KU For Uganda, KU4U, as the model for just such an organization. Though many student organizations campaign for an end to global injustice, KU4U's focus on the overlooked, war-torn region of northern Uganda makes it a standout amongst organizations at the University of Kansas, and a national forerunner in collegiate activist groups. "We feel it's our moral obligation to do what we can," said KU4U President Nathan Mack, Lawrence junior, noting that the United Nations has referred to the more than 20-year conflict in northern Uganda as today's most neglected humanitarian crisis. KU alumna Rebekah Heacock, who currently works at a Ugandan orphanage, founded KU4U last fall. Though still quite new to campus, the organization has already made itself highly visible by introducing many unique events that draw attention to the hardships faced by Uganda's citizens and raising funds for their aid. KU4U has hosted two Gulu Walks, which address the plight of the thousands of Ugandan children who trek miles from their homes each night to escape the Lord's Resistance Army, a rebel group that kidnaps children to fight in its revolt against the Ugandan government. Gulu Walks took place worldwide on Oct. 21, and Mack said that KU4U's Walk raised more than $2,000 on behalf of Ugandan night commuters. During the upcoming holiday season, the organization will send cards and small gifts to children at an orphanage in Kampala, Uganda. KU4U has brought together local bands for Uganda benefit concerts and produced a compilation CD entitled "Emirembe (Hope) Now." Bands donated their songs, and all proceeds go to the orphanage. KU4U has ongoing letter-writing campaigns urging senators and members of Congress to support U.S. leadership in restoring peace to northern Uganda. The group is also hoping to bring a prominent speaker to campus this spring. With peace talks currently taking place in southern Sudan, Mack is optimistic about the future of relief efforts for Uganda. "It's the best time to gain support," he said, adding that the success of the peace talks depends greatly on support from the international community, as well as awareness on an individual level. "If people can't make it to the meetings or events, the most important thing they can do is tell their friends about what's going on," Mack said. KU4 U meets at 3 p.m. every Sunday at the Mirth Cafe, 8th and New Hampshire streets. Students looking for more information on KU4U or the conflict in northern Uganda should e-mail kuforuganda@gmail.com. Kansan correspondent Megan Hirt can be contacted at editor@ kansan.com.

Dead woman wins school board race by flip of a coin JUNEAU, Alaska --- A coin toss made a dead woman the winner of a rural school board race. Incumbent Katherine Dunton and challenger Dona Highstone were tied after the Oct. 3 election in Adak, the same day Dunton died. The elections director flipped the coin to determine the winner Friday. Highstone called heads, but the coin landed on tails. Even with Dunton's death, state law requires a tie vote to be settled by lot after an official recount. The school board must now find a replacement for the three-year term. "This is definitely a new one for the division, and it's just, just β€” I'm speechless, frankly," she said.

LAWRENCE Wal-Mart pursues lawsuit with city commission A lawsuit stemming from allegations that the city denied a building permit for a Wal-Mart store at Sixth St. and Wakarusa Dr., has been restarted after seven months. The city commission and Wal-Mart property owners agreed to put the lawsuit on hold in April so that Wal-Mart could submit a different development plan for the proposed store, David Corliss, city manager, said. Wal-Mart decided to pursue the case again after the city commission voted 3-2 to reject a plan to build a 99,000-square-foot Wal-Mart store Tuesday. The development plan that was presented to the committee Tuesday was for a store that was 32,000 square feet smaller than a plan originally denied by the committee, which sparked this lawsuit. - Darla Slipke contact us Tell us your news Contact Jonathan Kealing, Erick R.
