Divestment policy requires companies to follow standards
By Tim Hrenchir Staff writer
The Kansas University Endowment Association is now investigating one company in its investment portfolio that has not complied with the selective divestment policy it adopted early this year, the Endowment Association president said yesterday.
Todd Seymour, the president, said adoption of the policy had been evolving since 1978 but only became official this year.
"This has been in the process for a long, long time," he said.
The policy hadn't been publicized, Seymour said, because it is strictly an internal procedure.
"We sometimes don't realize what people know and what people don't know," he said. "This was one of those things we just assume everybody knows."

companies investing in South Africa promote racial reform within their ranks.
Seymour all but one of the companies the Endowment Association invested in agreed to follow the scheme. Two, two sigged the Sullivan Principles.
seymour said he would not release the name of the company that had not complied with either proposal, but he said its stock represented 0.2 percent of Endowment Association earnings.
If a company does not sign either of the two proposals, Seymour said, Endowment Association staff will find out why, then make a decision whether to divest in the company's stock.
Seymour said that in certain situations, the Endowment Association might continue to hold stock in a company with South African interests that hadn't signed the Sullivan Principles, but such circumstances would be unusual.

Beer sales on Sunday debated
By Abbie Jones
TOPEKA — Call it a boost to the state's liquor image — or just its income — but an amendment to legalize Sunday beer sales was revived this year with only two days remaining in the session.
What has been known this session as the happy hour bill was amended yesterday in the Senate Federal and State Affairs Committee. It was amended to allow the sale of beer at all stores licensed to sell 3.2 percent beer, except liquor stores, after 1 p.m. on Sundays.
"On the one hand it increases our work load, but I can sympathize with their concerns." Lamb said. "This is just to remind me, Kansas Cam
The bill permits Sunday sales at conventions, concerts, golf courses, marinas, racetracks, sporting and special events.
John Lamb, director of the Alcoholic Beverage Control, stood outside the committee door and shook his head. He had mixed feelings about the changes, he said.
