Prof guide clears Senate hurdle
Bv Barbara Shear
After a long and controversial debate, the Student Senate Finance Committee last night approved more than $13,000 to finance the "Jayhawk Course Solution," a guide to professors.
The project was endorsed yesterday by Del Shankel, acting vice chancellor for academic affairs.
"I think it is a good concept." Shankel said. "The way the proposal was developed is a fine idea."
The bill, which allocates $13,000 from the Senate's unallocated account to pay for the project, will go before the Student Senate on April 30. If the bill passes, the money will be added to the revenue code groups' fund. The fund goes to large groups such as Student Senate that do not need to go through budget hearings each year.
The "Jayhawk Course Solution" would provide information on professors' classes about such things as the number of tests, amount of homework, lecture time, discussion and attendance policy. It is similar to printing a course syllabus before class begins, said David Epstein, student body president.
The bill originally asked for $17,000 for the project.
About $2,000 would have been used to pay for a director's
salary, $1,000 for a computer and $14,000 for printing
configs.
A two-hour debate ensued because some members of the committee were not sure that the guide would be successful; and because the figures were only estimates, they did not want to allocate a large amount of money.
Tim Henderson, Senate treasurer, said he was opposed to the bill because he did not know how much of the money proposed for the project would actually be used. "I don't think so," Henderson said.
"I hate the concept of leeway money." Henderson said. "I don't think we should be giving a group too much money and have them end it. We should also use fiscal responsibility. Senate has never been known for its fiscal responsibilities."
known for its fiscal responsibility.
Three members of the committee who either ran or worked on the Common Sense Coalition were opposed to financing the guide to professors. Establishing the "Jayhawk Course Solution" was one of Common Sense's four main campaign issues.
"I can't believe at least three senators, one who was our support group director and the other two who ran on the coalition, would vote against it," Amy Brown, student body vice president, said. "We are trying to fulfill our promises or at least get the ball rolling."
Boy dies from collision injuries
By a Kansan reporter
A 10-year-old Lawrence boy died early yesterday morning from injuries he received when he was hit by a pickup truck Tuesday evening at the intersection of Ninth and Alabama Streets.
Brendon Doerr, the son of Andrea Warren and Jay Wiedenkeller, 814 Alabama St., died shortly before 1 a.m. at the University of Kansas Medical Center from head and chest injuries. He was a fourth-grader at Pinckney School.
He was struck at about 5:15 p.m. Tuesday by a truck driven by a 31-year-old Lawrence man. The man told police he was driving west on Ninth Street in the right lane at 20 to 25 mph when the boy ran out of front of his truck.

He told police he braked and tried to swerve away from
Brendon but was unable to avoid hitting him. No citations were issued in the accident, police said. The intersection where Brendon was hit does not have a marked pedestrian crossing.
Three witnesses included, a friend of the boy, gave the same accuser the accident. The 10-year-old friend was arrested for Brendon to come over to play when he saw the accident from a window of his home. The witnesses said the boy hadn't looked before crossing the heavily traveled street.

Brendon was taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital after the accident and flown to the KU Medical Center by life flight helicopter shortly after 6:30 p.m.
