Recycling effort at computer center to continue despite recent budget cuts
By Stephanie Patrick
Kansan staff writer
A computer-paper recycling program that was in danger of being discontinued has found a new home under the auspices of an environmental ambushman's office.
The Waste Not recycling program, a recycling program at the computer center, originally was scheduled to be terminated Aug. 1.
The environmental umbudsman's office, which advises the University of Kansas about environmental issues, agreed to take over the program Oct. 1.
The computer center will run the program through Oct.1.
computer paper and white sheet paper.
Dave Gardner, director of information systems, said the directors of the computer center did not want to discontinue the program, which collects
The University ships the paper to Batliner Paper Stock Co. in Kansas City, Mo.
But the computer center did not find
the program ineffective
because budget budges.
"They agreed to take it over because they have access to the health center, who would be willing to do the program," he said. "The computer center will continue to do recycling internally."
Sue Ask, assistant to the environmental ambudsmus, said keeping the recycling program reaffirmed the university's commitment to recycling.
"The University has committed to not taking any steps backward," Ask said. "Ending the Waste Not program would be a step backward."
Ask said she asked the computer center to continue the Waste Not program until October in order to give her time to set up and take over the program.
She said slight changes would be made in the program to make it a more comprehensive recycling effort throughout the University.
"We've collected 500 pounds of
week each day." Ask said. The eight-
week program began last week.
As part of the changes, the environmental ambudsmus's office has started a program at Watson Library, placing small recycling containers at individual desk and work stations used to collect mixed grades of paper.
More than 100 people are involved in the pilot program, but Asks said it was too late to use if the program would become part of the University recycling program.
New students earn credit by learning about KU campus
Kansan staff report
Students can earn credit for learning their wav around campus.
The University of Kansas this semester will offer a course called "Orientation Seminar." This course was also offered in Spring 1991.
The syllabus states the course provides an introduction to KU and the value of higher education in society, strategies for successful transition to KU, exploration of the University's commitment to diversity, and information about University resources and procedures.
Twelve students took the course last spring. More than 70 students are enrolled in two sections this fall.
The class meets twice a week and students earn two credits for the semester.
Kathryn Kretschmer, director of new student orientation, said the students in the spring class recommended the course in their evaluations of it.
Stacey Kretschmer, Topeka freshman, took the course last spring.
"I think it is a good course for incoming freshmen," she said.
KU art students will tour European museums in '92
By William Ramsey Kansan staff writer
Art students will have the chance this spring break to tour museums in Belgium and learn about different ways art is presented to the public.
The trip, which will last about 10 days, will include visits to more than 12 museums near Brussels, Belgium. Belgium is bordered by Luxembourg, France, the Netherlands, Germany and the North Sea.
The group, which will be limited to 16 to 18 students, will not be studying paintings or artists, said Pat Villeneuve, an assistant professor of visual arts education who is leading the spring program.
Instead, they will study how art museums present their exhibits, she said.
Villeneuve, who lived in Belgium as an exchange student, said the program would give students interested in museum careers an opportunity to see various European museums.
"In Europe, I think that the arts
are a more integral part of their lives," Villeneuve said.
Students may be surprised by the cultural events they will be able to experience outside of the museums, said Steve Goddard, an associate professor of art history who lived in Belgium for two years.
Among other activities, they will go to a Mardi Gras carnival in the nearby town of Binche, Villeneuve said.
In addition to the museum work, for which they will receive three hours of KU credit, students will attend a variety of activities and events.
Excluding airfare, personal expenses and book costs, the program price is $685. Application forms are available at the KU office of study abroad, 203 Lippincott Hall
The program will include a class entitled, "Teaching Art: Museum Education in Belgium." The class, taught by Villeenue, will meet every Wednesday before spring break and a few times after the trip.
