However, students who have lost keys or an important notebook on campus may beg to differ. Hunting down lost belongings can be a frustrating process, and students are not always aware that a phone call to the KU police may prove that all is not lost.
Josephine Tayao, Topea freshman, lost an opal ring in a restroom at Watson Library the week before spring break, and has spent a lot of time and effort since then trying to find it.
Chris Barber, second year law student, had better luck. He left his backpack, complete with class notes, in the stands at Allen Field House after a game. He returned an hour later but could not find it.
She went back to Watson several times to look for it, and then she checked out the hat and coat. But she had not been turned in, so she checkeled with KU police.
Barber placed an ad in the newspaper, hoping to find out who had picked it up. KU police called him.

"They told me they hadn't found it, but if it came up they would give me a call," Tayao said.

Helen Harrell, who works at the Information/Candy Counter in the Kansas Union, said the Union had a good return on most lost items.

Computer system keeps list of things misplaced or found
However, not everyone calls KU police. Francis Wales, storekeeper for Robinson Center, tries to call students if the lost item can be identified. If it can't, and if it is not claimed within six months to a year, it meets an entirely different fate than the Salvation Army.

"If a student doesn't call or claim
them, we call KU police," Harrell
"It was great that they actually tried to get in touch with me after reading my ad in the paper." Barber said, "we were really great to work with."
Karrie Botello, storekeeper for KU police, handles the end-of-the-road depository for lost items.
"We have an in-house computer system that keeps track of all of the lost items," Botello said. "If the unions, refuse halls, libraries or businesses, they searches find anything of value, then we call it." If put a description in the computer."
KUIDs are kept for about a week,
and then sent to 122 Strong Hall. If you lose your brown bag lunch,
however, you most likely will not find it in the lost and found. Botello will not accept or save anything that is perishable or that may be a health hazard.
Students or faculty call and leave a message on an answering machine describing what was lost or found, and then find a match between descriptions.
“It’s really a mess because almost all of the buildings on campus have a lost and found,” she said. “We try to call people back but my hours are eight to five, and students aren’t usually home during thursdays.”
"Once a year we have a sale."
"When the money goes to a student's recreation center, we send it."

body's upset about something they lost and we don't have it," she said. "It really makes my day when I can find something that I know someone is really wanting back. Sometimes they don't really seem to care."
She keeps everything for six months. If it isn't claimed, it is taken to a non-profit organization such as the Salvation Army.
The dispatcher or the Lawrence animal control usually takes care of
However, she did have a German shepherd dog turned in once, and she didn't turn him back to the street. "He had tags and shots and seemed to have a mild temperament," Botello said. "He was also a long way from home — from the south side of the city."
The most common items turned in are prescription eyeglasses, keys,

Botello said the kind of items she received each week depended on the season, and on what was happening during the week. Because it's April, she said she expected to have a box of cookies as soon as the weather turns wet.
So if you leave your umbrella in class, and you don't want it to be given away or sold, call and leave a message with Karrie Botelo. Chances are, if she has what you lost, she'll get back to you.
State won't tax retirement annuities of Regents employees
By a Kansan reporter
Annuities from two retirement plans for Board of Regents employees are exempt from state taxes, according to a statement issued Friday by the Kansas Department of Revenue.
The statement says that employees
of Regents schools and the Regents office are entitled to Kansas tax exemption on income derived from the Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association and the College Retirement Equities Fund.
Also, employees who have contributed to the funds can receive a refund
However, the refunds would be taxable by the federal government.

Oscar Haugh, secretary of the state legislative committee on the American Association of Retired Persons, said he was happy with the
He said that because the refunds were only available since fiscal 1983, many people would still lose a lot of money.
