Residence hall honorary to be reestablished at KU
By Peggy Kramer
Staff writer
Two KU students are working to reestablish the KU branch of a national organization that recognizes students in residence halls for outstanding achievement and leadership within the hall system.
The organization, National Residence Hall Honorary, was popular at the University of Kansas in the late 60s, but fizzled out because of low student interest, Fred McElhene, director of the office of residential programs, said yesterday.
Juice Gross, adviser for NRHH and McColum Hall resident director, said, "People receive honors for academics, but nothing has been set aside for contributions made outside the classroom."
The purpose of NRHH is to recognize the persons living in
residence halls who have shown outstanding service and leadership in the hall system and have encouraged leadership in other residents.
Wanda Wood. Worley junior, and Noelle Jibril, Wichita senior, found an old NRHH constitution in January at the AURH office and decided to write a new constitution and reinstate the organization.
Jibril, co-chairman of the NRHH selections committee, said that a five-member committee of students and staff reviewed the constitution before it became final March 5. The committee consisted of four volunteer representatives from residence halls and Ken Stoner, director of student housing.
She said the University of Iowa had a very strong NRHh chapter and would be used as the model for the new KU chapter.
AU was one of the first schools to have NRHU, and we would like to see this be a complete organization again by next fall."
Wood, also a co-chairman, said.
NRHIH nomination applications are due March 21. Jibril said.
Gross said there was no limit to the number of students that could be nominated and honored. Students will be nominated and officers will be elected in the spring.
Students can be nominated by their peers in residence halls, residential hall directors, hall executive boards, director of the office of residential programs, director of student housing, NRHH adviser and the Association of University residence halls adviser.
A selections committee then will choose the final NRHH members. The members will work on leadership programs to help other residents benefit from the honorary group.

KU student body president and vice president met with Kansas senators and representatives in Washington D.C. last week to discuss government spending cuts in education.
Reagan's fiscal 1987 budget would cut grants and loans by $2 billion, causing 1.36 million students to lose all federal aid by academic 1987-88, according to the Feb. 19 issue of the Chronicle of Higher Education.

Depending on the size of the national deficit, programs not related to national defense would be cut by 15
equally. The defense budget was actually increased although social programs, including education, were cut, she said.
"We all know that everyone has to give up something," Brown said. "But Gramm-Rudman would be more fair, because at least it cuts everything."

Epstein said he was happy that Senator Nancy Kassebaum was in favor of curbing education budget cuts.

One problem mentioned by senators was that they never saw students, Brown said. By going to Washington, she and Epstein showed that students cared and were interested, she said.
