10 Tuesday, March 29. 1988 / University Daily Kansan Campus efforts for Dole dwindle By Elaine Woodford Kansan staff writer The posters and campaign slogans are gone; the hopes and expectations have faded. Most Kansans are no longer optimistic that Senate Minority Leader Bob Dole will be able to republican presidential nomination. Kansas' favorite son has seeningly drawn supporters from one end of the state to the other, especially from students at the University of Kansas. Brett Frazier, president of Jayhawks for Dole, said the KU campaign had received an outpouring of student support and had been recognized in Kansas and other states for its work on the Dole campaign. Campaign workers dismayed by poor nationwide showing Brenda Eisele, president of College Republicans said, "I think everyone in Kansas should be disappointed that Bob Dole isn't going to get the nomination." Frazier said the status of the Dole campaign on campus has come to a standstill while volunteers wait to find out what is going to happen to the group. The group will disband if Dole concedes to Vice President George Bush. "I am disappointed," Frazier said. "I think we backed the better leaders." Earlier this spring, Dole appeared to be on his way to challenging Bush for the nomination, perhaps even all the way to the Republican national way. But after winning the Iowa caucuses, Dole lagged behind Bush. After a disappointing showing on Super Tuesday, many said Dole had to win Illinois to stay in contention for the nomination. He did not. Financial problems caught up with the campaign, and Dole was forced to pull advertising spots from Illinois television stations. "Dole had problems from the beginning," Frazier said. "He had management problems and a big problem with money." But Dole had more than just internal problems, Frazier said. Bush continued to win delegates and gain votes from Reagan supporters. "Bush got the support in areas where Reagan was popular," Frazier said. "His victories put him ahead of Dole." KU campaign workers are among many Kansans waiting to hear what direction the campaign will take. Frazier said he had been in contact with several state Dole campaign volunteers, who were waiting to see if money would be available to continue the campaign. Eisele said that College Republi- cans would support whoever was selected as the Republican nominee. But Frazer said that the Dole group planned to work on local politics instead of switching to the Bush campaign. "It will be trying to get active individuals involved in the 2nd district elections," he said. HEY JAYHAWKS . . .

It did not needlessly, a museum official said yesterday. Joseph Collins, a zoologist at the museum, said that the Missouri River Cooter turtle was important because the museum did not have many turtles of its kind. Researchers at the museum wanted to study the turtle's digestive and reproductive systems. "It's a valuable scientific specimen." Collins said. "It is hard to distinguish between a river cooter and a regular cooter." Collins said. Philip Humphrey, director of the museum, said that specimens such as the Missouri River Cooter turtle are being collected to show the environment affects animals. "In the whole world, there are 30 or 40 million specimens," Humphrey said. "We collect specimens to understand what they eat and how they reproduce." Collins said that the number of animals that were killed for research at the University of Kansas was much less than the number killed by environmental accidents in the Douglas County area. Many of the live animals the museum receives are not killed. They are instead released into their natural environment, Collins said. The Missouri River Cooter turtle could not be released because its species was not native to the Douglas County area. Collins said that the Missouri River Cooter turtle population was not threatened by studying a single specimen. "It is not an endangered or threatened species," Collins said. "They are just hard to catch. Dumping chemicals in the river is much more harmful than studying a single specimen from a population." Loan program means KUEA spells financial relief to some By Jeff Suggs Kansan staff writer For those who have taken advantage of it, the Kansas University Endowment Association's short-term loan program has enabled students to help pay their way through school. William Shunk, Endowment Association loan officer, said the short-term loan program had a 2 percent rate of default on loans. And fortunately for the Endowment Association, it has had little trouble getting students to pay their loans back. “It’s not a problem, but there are a few students that do default.” Shunk said. “It’s more than we like to see.” If a student doesn't pay back his loan, Shunk said, the Endowment Association will send letters and make phone calls to get the student to pay the loan. have its attorney send a demand letter to the student. If there's still no response, the Endowment Association will send the problem to a collection agency. Ultimately, the Endowment Association will file suit in court to receive the owed money. If that doesn't work, then it will To receive a short-term loan, a student has to have at least A coverage and have a co-signer at least 21 years old. Undergraduates can take out a loan of $700 in a semester, with a $1,200 ceiling during their stay at KU. Graduate students can take a $1,200 loan in a semester, with a $2,400 ceiling. Students have four months after graduation to pay back the loan at 6 percent interest. If the loan is not paid back by that time, the Endowment Association sets up a payment plan in which the interest could be as high as 14 percent.
