Not at KU?
A recent Lawrence Journal-World editorial referring to photographs being taken of students at a "love in" by a secretary at Oklahoma State University said:
"In Kansas, Chancellor Clarke Wescoe of KU and President James McCain of K-State have periodically been targets for all sorts of barbs, but so far they haven't been accused of being a party to a Gestapo photographing operation such as the professor fears at Oklahoma State.
"Seems everyone has some kind of troubles in the field of higher education these days. But who would ever dream that the Gestapo was making inroads on the campus of friendly, earthly Oklahoma State?"

MOUNT CLEMENS, Mich. — (UPI)—One of the world's most famous military decorations—the French Croix de Guerre—is enshrined near this suburban Detroit town at an Air Force base that didn't exist when the medal was won.
The cross was captured in World War I by the 94th and 103rd Aero Squadrons, since merged into the 94th Fighter Interceptor Squadron at Selfridge Air Force Base. The cross has never since been won by another Air Force unit. It was awarded after 290 missions and 69 kills in the rough and tumble days of early air warfare at Toulon and Chateau-Thierry.

The man said Nunley took his picture without permission, Nunley said Nunley gave the man an identification card. The man "reductantly" showed Nunley a badge identifying himself as Detective Harmon.
NUNLEY RECORDED the license number of the vehicle.

Several students have told the Kansan they observed KU police officers photographing students participating in a vigil in front of Watson Library.
Tom Silver, Palo Alto, Calif., graduate student, said he and his father spotted two KU police taking photographs of a vigil "during the week of March 20" from a patrol car near the sculpture garden behind Bailey Hall. Silver said the officer used an "obviously expensive camera with a telephoto lens."
LAURENCE WOODRUFF, dean of students, said he was unaware any photographs were taken of vigil participants. He said no orders came from his office.
KU police officials have requested and received copies of photographs of campus demonstrations taken by Kansan photographers.
"I got the clear impression that he was operating under orders," Nunley said. "I intend to pressure whomever necessary until I have received a reasonable explanation for this practice or until the practice stops."

RECENTLY AN OKLAHOMA State University faculty member accused university police in Stillwater of photographing students participating in a "love in." The professor said a woman secretary went through the crowd systematically taking pictures.
