"Students are important as individuals," said Mrs. Jeanne Stump, winner of the $1,000 Standard Oil Company of Indiana Foundation award for outstanding classroom teaching, in a recent interview at the Museum of Art.
Mrs. Stump, a KU art history instructor, believes in small classes. Although enrollment for her lectures covering art from Egyptian to twentieth century times numbers around 200, she hopes to make an impact upon each student. She tries to use the Museum of Art in teaching and feels it is "one of the most valuable contributions to the cultural life of the University."
Modern art is Mrs. Stump's
specialty. She studied in Paris for three weeks this summer, doing doctorate work on her favorite artist, K. X. Russell. Russell relates to post impressionistic and symbolic styles.
Mrs. Stump received her B.A. degree at the University of Illinois and her masters at KU in 1966. She has since been editor of the "Register," the publication of the Museum of Art, and has taught beginning art courses.
Nominated twice for the HOPE Award. Mrs. Stump commented on the high standards of the University of Kansas. As her bright eyes quickly scanned the lobby inside the Museum, she added, "It's unfortunate that some students don't take full advantage of our many cultural opportunities."
`Pepper' plays it cool
By MARY LIND Summer Kansan Reporter
Football's not an easy game ... guys who make it through have to be great," said KU football coach Pepper Rodgers at a recent interview. And KU's Big Eight football team has a "great" coach in Pepper.
Known as being exceptionally calm during games, Rodgers admits much of his "calmness" is a front for the benefit of the players. "I just play it cool," he said.
The theory behind this statement is that of positive thinking. He feels the players want to think they are going to win every game.
"Actually I'm a very concerned person," says Pepper. He proves this by getting up at 4:00 or 5:00 am, on game days.
An all-around athlete, he finds
exercising relaxes him. Tennis and golf are two favorite pastimes. A busy man all year, the month of July is one of the few chances he has to relax and rest up before fall training, beginning this year on August 29th.
Pepper Rodgers came to KU two years ago. Before taking over as KU's head coach, he had been assistant coach at UCLA.

An interesting facet of Rodgers' charismatic personality is his love for music. "Music makes me feel so good," said Pepper, also staring he'd once wanted to be a singer. "I really can't sing, but I think I can."
Actually Rodgers always wanted to be a football coach. He feels the choosing of a career depends on who your heroes are. As a child he liked to read, especially books on sports.
His reaction to last year's season is that it was "great" and he's looking for a good upcoming season.
