Subcommittee to talk about grade appeals
by Thom Clark
Kansan staff writer
A University grade appeals proposal has been amended and will be addressed a final time tomorrow by a University Council subcommittee, a council member said yesterday.
The University Senate Executive Committee will address the proposal March 24.
Mike Schreiner, WaKeeney sophomore and member of the organization and administration subcommittee, said the proposal still could change.
"We are not trying to take away the faculty's right to judge the quality of a student's work," Schreiner said. "Students want a fair process when there are procedural errors in the assignment of their grade."
The new grade appeal system would encourage the student to make every effort to resolve any grade conflict with the instructor of the course, according to the proposal. After consulting the instructor, the student could file a complaint with the departmental chair, who must render a decision within five days.
Schreiner said this was a minor change that the committee had implemented at its Feb. 16 meeting. He said that the report originally requested that the student appeal to the vice chancellor for academic affairs at this point but that the committee suggested the process involve the chairman of the department.
Schreiner said the chairman would have five academic days to make a decision.
"The process calls for the student to make the appeal within 30 days and having no limit on the chair's decision."
*The process calls for the student to make the appeal within 30 days and having no limit on the chair's decision.*
Jane Hutchinson, SenEx member, said the change seemed appropriate and would not take away from the grade appeals program. She said the process also would give students a course for academic complaints.
"There is no course of action for students except filing charges of academic misconduct. And most students are not willing to pursue such drastic measures," Hutchinson said.
Under the current system, a student can charge a faculty member with academic misconduct if the student is unsatisfied with the decision of the departmental chair. University Judiciary Committee then reviews the case.
Under the grade appeals proposal, Schreiner said a student or faculty member could appeal the chair's decision to the department. The appeal must be made within 30 days of the first day of classes.
City Commission candidates talk at forum
by Carrie Harper
Kansan staff writer
In the first forum since the primary election, the six City Commission candidates last night fielded people at the Lawrence Public Library.
The forum, sponsored by Downtown Lawrence, A Kansas Corporation, was intended to give the public another chance to hear the candidates' views, said Mike Vimes. Downstairs president and forum moderator.
Jeff Arensberg, part-owner of Arensberg Shoes, said he would not support a suburban mall in Lawrence, especially after talking to residents and business owners in towns such as Hutchinson and Salina. He said they told him how malls had destroyed their downtowns.
"The pie can only be sliced so many ways," Arensberg said. "Our town cannot support a viable downtown and a suburban mall."
Arensberg also said he thought it would make sense to strengthen the south end of downtown after the Riverfront Plaza was established.
Dennis Constance, the only incumbent and a KU residence hall manager, said he would not support a suburban mall because the Lawrence marketing area was not large enough to withstand the economic impact.
"We do have a viable project that will enhance our downtown; the groundbreaking is tomorrow." Conversely, she said about the Riverfront project.
Constance also addressed the possibility of linking a new public transportation system with the existing bus system. Research would uncover what would be economically viable for Lawrence, he said.
outlying shopping centers.
Marci Francisco, a KU assistant director of facilities planning, said she did not support the construction of a new bridge to take away from downtown and the
Francisco also said she agreed with the planning process for the Eastern Parkway, which would link downtown and the Kansas Turnippe with Highway 10. She said the city needed continued review of the alternatives and the impact on neighborhoods.
Shirley Martin-Smith, owner and manager of Martin-Smith Personnel Services, said she would not support a suburban mall because she saw what malls did to Topeka's downtown.
Martin-Smith also said public-private partnership was essential to accomplishing anything in Lawrence. The Riverfront project is a good example of that partnership's success, she said.
David Penny, owner of Kaw Sand Co., was bombarded with questions about his support for a suburban car wash. He called the suburban man in lawrence, but
thought it was inevitable. He also said that taxpayers should not have to pay for lawsuits surrounding the issue.
Concerning the publicprivate partnership in Lawrence, Penny said public money should be used for public projects.
Bob Walters, manager of research facilities for the University's Space Technology Center and secretary-treasurer for AEh A. Smith Moving and Storage, said he would not support the construction of a suburban mall because he had seen so many other cities struggle with the issue.
Walters said he did not think the proposed South Lawrence Trafficway would become a commercial road because it would provide roads and the flood-plain location.
The six candidates will compete for three vacant seats on the City Commission in the Apr. 4 general election.
