Regional members of the U.S. Civil Rights Commission are meeting in Lawrence today to discuss the case against the American Indian community.
The meeting is at the Holiday Inn Holdeme, 200 McDonald Drive, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. People familiar with the topic have been invited to speak to civil-rights commissioners and the public, as Saidcension Hernandez, civil-rights analyst at the U.S. Civil Rights Commission regional office.
Willie Sevier, whose son Greg was killed in police officers last April, 1941.
The regional commission comprises 11 volunteers from across the country.
Jacob Gordon, associate professor of African studies at KU and director of the Center for Black Leadership Development and Research, and associate director, director of the Indian Center of Lawrence, serve on the commission.
Information gathered from the meeting will be used to decide on a project for fiscal 1992.

lization.
The Office of Study Abroad will have a meeting at 3:30 p.m. tomorrow at 203 Lippincott Hall for students interested in Fulbright grants.
Fulbright grant meeting scheduled for tomorrow
The meeting's purpose is to persuade students to write their applications so the office will have enough time to help revise them, said Mary Elizabeth Debicki, director of study abroad.
Fulbright grants are available for graduate students who want to study or research in a foreign country. The program offers travel, tuition and room and board.
Graduate students or students who will graduate by Fall 1992 are eligible to apply.
"Unfortunately for KU students, the deadline for submitting applications for the following year is Sept. 10," Debicki said. "Therefore, many students learn about these opportunities too late to apply."
KU officials announce director of admissions
Deborah Castrop will become KU director of admissions Aug. 5, University officials announced Monday.
Before that, she worked as director of admissions at Hutchinson Community College for almost 10 years. Her other positions at Hutchinson were assistant director of admissions and affirmative-action officer.
Castrop has been the dean of instruction at Colby Community College for the past two years.
"She comes with many years of experience, and she will provide the quality of leadership we want," said James Adams, dean of educational services.
Her community-college experience is important because of the large number of transfer students coming to the University of Kansas, Williams said.
Castrop is a doctoral candidate at the University and plans to earn a doctorate in education and administration in May 1992. She earned a bachelor's degree from Kent and a master's degree in education from Wichita State University.
Four graduate students awarded fellowships
Four KU graduate students have been awarded James B. Pearson Fellowships to study abroad.
The Fellowship Trust Fund was established in 1797 by Pearson for
Five fellowships were awarded for the 1991-92 school year, four to KU students and one to a Wichita State University student.
The KU recipients are Kathryn Boyer, Marcy Neal, Rose Stone and Brady. They will be studying in France, Germany and Switzerland.
South Carolina editor receives professorship
A writer, editor and publisher from South Carolina will be the first Knight Chair in Journalism professor at KU.
John Ginn, who has been president and publisher of the Anderson (S.C.) Independent-Mail newspaper since 1974, will teach educational programs at KU focusing on the press's leadership roles.
Ginn, 54, earned a journalism degree from the University of Missouri in 1959 and a master's of fine arts from Harvard University in 1972.
The Knight Foundation, of Miami, awarded the School of Journalism a $1 million endowment to finance the professorship.
