Their styles were different but their messages were the same: KU students and faculty are concerned about the situation in South Africa.
The University Senate Human Relations Committee conducted the first round of public hearings on South Africa last night in the Jayhawk Room of the Kansas Union.
The committee heard statements from eight groups and individuals. The hearings continue tonight with nine speakers scheduled to present their views.

The South African government follows a policy of apartheid, which is legalized racial segregation.
By Tim Hrenchir
Chris Bunker, Shawne third-year law student and president of the KU Committee on South Africa, told the human relations committee that his committee was frustrated with the
lack of communication with the Kansas University Endowment Association
In the past year, some students and faculty members have protested the Endowment Association's ties to companies that do business in South Africa.
"We've sat in, we've protested, we've educated, we've worked politically," Bunker said. "At this point, I don't know what else we can do."
Bunker suggested the University take legal action to prove that the Endowment Association is not a separate entity from the University. Therefore, he said, the Endowment Association would be forced to abide by the wishes of faculty and students.

Soccer still not a thrill for Yankees
While most U.S. residents will be spending their summer watching either the basketball world championship games or professional baseball, outside of the United States, soccer fever will rise again, when Mexico hosts the 1986 Soccer World Cup.
In June and July more than one-half of the world's population will be either watching or listening to the top 24 countries compete in the games.
Costa Rica ended U.S. hopes to participate in this world event by defeating them in the second qualifying round last summer.
But for the ninth consecutive time, the United States will not be present at the most popular world cup, which is held every four years.
Soccer is considered the king of sports in the world because it is simple and inexpensive, allowing third world nations the chance to compete. The only important equipment needed for a street game is a ball, enough space and players.
Soccer was rapidly accepted when it was introduced in European and Latin American countries in the early 20th century. But because the sport was not widely known in the United States until the 1950s, U.S. teams have lagged behind the rest of the world.
Years have gone by, and U.S. soccer has achieved limited success. The last time a U.S. team played in a World Cup was in 1950. But that year teams were invited to the tournament and did not have to compete in qualifying rounds.
Pele, the most talented athlete to ever play this sport, tried to popularize soccer in America in the mid-70s.
Despite the enormous help from this Brazilian player, the United States still has not reached the level of even an average team internationally.
