Proposed cuts jeopardize classes
By ALISON YOUNG

Kansas' bleak economic situation has hit home for KU students, hundreds of whom were turned away from full classes for next semester.
The University's budget, which already was strained by a record fall enrollment, faces more tightening because of Governor-elect Mike Hayden's proposed 3.8 percent budget cuts for all state agencies, KU officials said recently.
Administrators said last week that about 100 sections, in which students pre-enrolled, could be canceled because of proposed budget cuts.
Class offerings are so limited that the University may send advisory letters to students who have been admitted for the spring semester and plan to
enroll next month, officials said.
Bruce Lindwall, director of admissions, said he didn't want students to pack up and move to Kansas if the courses they were expecting weren't available.
According to statistics generated by the enrollment center Nov. 26, after main enrollment was completed, several basic classes turned away hundreds of students.
The statistics show the number of students who tried to enroll in a course but couldn't because it was full. These figures may be inflated because a single student could have been turned away from several choices in the same department.
According to statistics:
