Draft to cause man shortage in grad school
KU may feel the draft drain next year in its graduate school. Unless the draft law is changed—a dim prospect in light of increasing world tensions—the KU graduate school may be populated next year only by women, veterans, foreign students and men physically disabled or past draft age.
George Swift, acting dean of the graduate school, said as far as he knows, there will be no deferments for men obtaining baccalaureate degrees this spring. The only exceptions might be for medical and dental students and those students staying in fields which the National Security Council deems "critical."

More money for school districts
TOPEKA — (UPI)—The Senate Education Committee Tuesday introduced a bill to distribute $201,827 in state money to 16 "distressed" school districts next October.
The money for the one-time "stop-gap" appropriation would come from the present fiscal year's general fund. The 16 districts were judged by the committee to be unable at present to provide the necessary local funds to meet their share of basic school expenses.

and those students already in the graduate school with expiring one-year deferments could be absent from school next year. Swift said he expected a reduction of 200 to 300 male graduate students because of the draft.
Among those departments which will be affected by the draft next year at KU is the Western Civilization department.
Although it has not been seriously affected this year, "we are worried" about the situation. James E. Seaver, professor of history and director of the western civilization program, said.
The western civ, program lost a couple of instructors to the draft early this year, but there is no shortage and the department has not yet been forced to lower the
requirements for instructors, Saver said. These requirements state that a person be a graduate student, enrolled in graduate school courses, have an excellent academic record and be recommended by a committee from the department, who makes the final decision.
Right now in the program there are about 40 instructors who usually teach eight classes each, Seaver said.
Seaver and his associates are looking at the situation very closely, he said, but at present have not decided what to do if there is a shortage in instructors next year. Right now they are waiting to see what influence the Viet Nam and Korean situations will have, he said.
