Vice chancellor candidate to interview for position
By Stephanie McDuff
Kansan staff writer
The second of five candidates for the new vice chancellor of research and public service position will be interviewed by University of Kansas officials during the next two days.
Robert E. Barnhill, a vice provost for research at Arizona State University, will meet with graduate student representatives at 2:30 p.m. today in the Regents Room, 230 Strong Hall. University faculty representatives will interview Barnhill at 1:30 p.m. tomorrow at the Pine Room in the Kansas Union.
Barnhill, a Lawrence native, earned his bachelor's degree from the University and his doctoral degree from the University of Wisconsin.
He has worked as the senior research officer at Arizona State since 1991 and has been a professor of computer science at that university since 1986.
The search for a new vice chancellor began after Howard Mossberg, the current interim vice chancellor.
said that he would take a phased retirement ending in September.
Mossberg said last week that last year he had agreed to fill in as an interim vice chancellor until the University could find someone to serve as the head of research. That person, he said, would need to have experience with the position.
"They need to understand the various aspects of scholarship and research." he said.
Mossberg also said that all five of the candidates had the needed experience; now the committee needs to select the one who best fits the University's needs.
The responsibilities of the new vice chancellor will include working with University researchers to locate and assist in the funding of projects, coordinating research activities in the academic center and working with the academic deans.
As an additional responsibility, the new vice chancellor also will be the chief operating officer of the Center for Research Inc. This will be a new responsibility for the vice
chancellor when the center becomes a University-wide research foundation on July 1.
University officials said that the scheduled expansion of the center should coincide with the appointment of a new vice chancellor who will oversee the program.
After meeting with the five candidates, a 15-member selection committee will make a final recommendation to Chancellor Robert Hemenway and Provost David Shulenburger, who will make the final decision.
The first of the five candidates, Robert V. Smith, was interviewed for the position last week. Smith is the vice provost for research and dean of the graduate school at Washington State University.
The other three candidates are scheduled to interview for the position on campus this month.
The names of the remaining candidates will not be released by University administrators until shortly before their interviews, said Kathryn Clark, news coordinator for University Relations.

coalition more than $10 over its spending limit, thus committing another major violation.
The hearing board will assess additional penalties, most likely more fines, at its meeting Tuesday. At that meeting, the hearing board also will address discrepancies in the Unite coalition's expense report.
In a separate violation and punishment case, the hearing board decided that Becca Kelley, Englewood, Colo., junior and winner of a College of Liberal Arts and Sciences seat for the Unite coalition, would have to write a letter of apology to the student body, which will be approved by the commission and printed in a quarter-page advertisement in the University Daily Kansan.
The hearing board determined that Kelley, a member of a sorority, had violated elections codes when she incorrectly received an off-campus ballot and then knowingly voted for off-campus candidates. Fraternity and sorority members cannot vote for off-campus seats.
Perlov said that Kelley had to submit the letter by 5 p.m. Friday and that the advertisement would appear next week. The advertisement will cost Kelley about $160.
President's minister says Christian ethics needed
By Sarah Chadwick Special to the Kansan
The ethics of Christianity should not be reserved just for Sundays, J. Philip Wogaman told a KU audience last night.
Wogaman, minister of the church that President Bill Clinton and his family attend, said that he believes Christian ethics have a place in all walks of life, including college campuses. About 50 people attended Wogaman's speech as a part of a banquet for the department of religious studies.
"A university has a great opportunity to be a place to examine what shapes us in society," said Wogaman, a professor of Christian ethics at Wesley Theological Seminary and senior minister of Foundry United Methodist Church in Washington D.C.
Wogaman spent nearly an hour discussing whether Christian ethics belonged in public dialogue or primarily within the Christian community.
His presentation concentrated on providing a basis for life that people could understand; criticizing the idols that people worship in place of God, such as wealth or nationalism; supporting, as well as criticizing, the
"The world has not suddenly become so good that Christian ethics are not needed, and it has not become so evil that Christian ethics are not heard," Wogaman said. "The great issues concerning any society are religious issues. Christian ethics can offer hope. They have had a millennium of experience to say things are going to get better."
government and humanizing public dialogue.
Audience members said that they enjoyed the speech.
"The question of ethics should be premier in any vocation, or in any department at the University of Kansas," said Paul Haughey, Olathe graduate student. "Dr. Wogaman did a good job of tying together the central ethical questions that go into many other vocations."
Carolyn Phillips, Lawrence resident, said, "I thought what he said are things we all know. All of life is really involved with Christian ethics in the way we live our lives. It's not just on a national level, but on a day-to-day basis."
Wogman will speak again from noon to 1 p.m. today at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries building, 1204 Oread Ave.
Timetable design by graphics editor wins contest, $100
By Ann Marchand Kansan staff writer
Next year, the timetables will bear the mark of a University of Kansas student.
Student Union Activities and the Office of the University Registrar co-sponsored a contest to select the timetable designs for Spring, Summer and Fall 1998.
Andy Rohrback, Andover sophomore, won the $100 cash prize and will have his artwork displayed on the timetable covers next year.
Rohrback's designs feature three familiar campus scenes: the Jayhawk in front of Strong Hall, the Campanile monument and Dvche Hall.
Michael Fine, program coordinator for SUA, said that Rohrback's designs were exactly what the seven-member selection committee was looking for.
"We were looking for professionalism, and we were looking for a clever design and something that was a good representative of the quality of work that KU students can do," he said. "I think we got it."
Associate registrar Brenda Selman said that although the contest did not produce as many entries as the committee had hoped, she was pleased with the end result.
"We hope that there will be a lot of interest generated by people seeing this year's work and that other students will want to do it next year," she said.
Rohrback, who is the graphics editor of the Kansan, said that he has been interested in graphics design since he was in high school. He hopes to work in internet graphic design when he graduates.
