SenEx debates advising ideas
By Brenda Finnell
Kansan staff writer
The University Senate Executive Committee discussed problems about the current advising system when it met yesterday with a group of associate deans.
"We think the problems of enrollment, within the professional schools or college, must be corrected soon," said Evelyn Swartz, SenEx chairman.
James B. Carothers, associate liberal arts dean, said the fundamental issue was money.
"We do not have adequate resources to hire adequate faculty and GTAs to meet demands," he said.
Carothers also said there was a consumer mentality in many students' minds, meaning students expect to be able to get a certain course at a particular time. They need to be aware of optional courses that fulfill requirements, he said.
SenEx also discussed the idea of having two full days when only advising would occur.
Sharon Bass, associate professor of journalism and SenEx member, said teachers had difficulty making the present advising system a part of their schedules.

days than have the disruption for two weeks of the semester," she said.
Carothers and some SenEx members also expressed concern that the original purpose of advising, discussing career plans and educational goals, had changed with the increase in closed classes and the time pressures during the two-week advising time.
SenEx members said many students and their advisers now had to discuss the strategy of how to get a particular class.
Jane Hutchinson, Wichita junior and SenEx representative, said students weren't always certain what enrollment requirements were or whether they were completing the proper enrollment procedures.
Edwyna Gilbert, associate liberal arts dean, said the advising support center did a good job of helping students. She said students, especially those with undeclared majors, needed to go to the center early in the semester to get help with their college plans.

Restaurant owners want critics to be licensed
The Associated Press
HARTFORD, Conn. — A bill to require licensing of restaurant reviewers has been introduced in the Legislature after an owner complained that her establishment was savaged by a critic who didn't know a Bolognese sauce from bottled tomato sauce.
ever, restaurant spokesmen said debate over the bill helped accomplish its main purpose.
Lawmakers give the bill little chance of passage because of concerns that it would violate the First Amendment free speech rule. How-
"We wanted to provide a message to reviewers, the public and some editorial people that ... some of the persons providing the reviews are less than capable," Carroll J. Hughes, executive vice president of the 700-member Connecticut Restaurant Association, said yesterday.
Hughes persuaded lawmakers to draft the bill after Lucille Trzienski.
co-owner of Casagrande restaurant in Wallingford, complained that two "grossly inaccurate" reviews last month caused her business to drop 15-20 percent.
Hughes said he gets a dozen complaints a year from restaurant owners about reviews. No state licenses restaurant critics, he said.
Alan Neigher, an attorney who specializes in media law, called the proposal "preposterous."
Under the proposal, restaurant critics would have to be licensed through the Department of Consumer Protection. A critic could be fined $500 for reviewing without a license.
The proposed license requirements include experience in food-service operation and management, graduation from a recognized culinary arts degree program, or a combination of at least six years of experience and formal training.
