Ernest Angino - prof entering city politics
KU professor in city election
Ernest E. Angino, associate professor of civil engineering, is running for a position on the Lawrence City Commission. Primary elections for the City Commission will be Tuesday.
Angino, who has taught at the University four years, said he hopes to bring a fresh outlook and a different approach to the commission.
More specifically, he spoke of imbalance of taxes and public services and of haphazard community growth. He would work on these problems, he said, by improving or increasing
public services and promoting orderly, planned community growth.
Angino stressed that although community growth was a desirable thing, Lawrence should first take care of the community it has. He mentioned north and east Lawrence as areas that needed attention.

Besides ideas for the community, Angino spoke of a plan for the City Commission structure. He roughly outlined a plan whereby seven instead of five people would hold positions on the City Commission. These seven, he explained, would each focus most of their attention on one area of public concern such as taxes, roads or education.
Paul Brotsman, associate professor of social work, said the emphasis of the course is on community service.
In Social Work 280, Field Observation and Evaluation, books are not the source of information. Instead, students learn through their work in social centers in the community.
