Regents centers unite
By PEGGY SPENCER
Staff Writer
The University of Kansas will merge its Garden City and Colby Regents Centers on July 1, Ron Calgaard, vice-chancellor for academic affairs, said this week. Garden City will have the only center serving western Kansas.
"The staff was aware of the change," he said. "This was not something we did on the job."
Calgary said the question of merging the two centers had been discussed for more than a decade. The city's leaders
CGaailand said that, as far as he knew, both members of the Colby center staff planned to remain in Colby after the center closed.

change would have little impact on the Colby community.

Calgaard said the University would continue to offer popular short courses and conferences on the oil and natural gas industries at the new center.
Regents Centers coordinate the University's Division of Continuing Education activities in the western part of the state. he said.
In the past, Regents Centers have offered both credit and non-credit courses, but the Garden City center was more active than the center in Colby, Calgaard said.
Nine water projects killed by Senate in compromise
WASHINGTON (UP1) - The Senate Appropriations Committee shoots for a compromise with President Jimmy Carter to water projects and water projects Carter had sought to eliminate.
By voice vote, the committee accepted the recommendation of a subcommittee headed by Sen. John Stennis, D-Miss., who concocted the concession would avert a Carter veto.
The compromise roughly amounts, at least numerically, to a halfway position between the President's initial proposal and the project that would fund all but one of the projects.
The vote came as the Senate panel pushed toward final approval of a bill carrying funds for public works, the Army Corps of Engineers, the Energy Research and Development Agency and related agencies for fiscal 1978.
The committee met in private for nearly 90 minutes before the vote, and there was no debate on the water projects after the session was thrown open.
The committee agreed with the President
The woman mentioned here is fictional. However, according to Judi Browder, coordinator of community education for Women's Transitional Care Services, Inc., she isn't fictional, much unlike women in Lawrence. They aren't fictional. Neither are their problems.
The primary function of WTCs is to give support to women who want to make changes within their living situations, Browder said. A large part of the service involves giving financial advice to women who are in the process of separation or divorce.
They also provide "linkage services." Browder said. This includes directing women to other agencies that might be able to help them, by providing legal services, welfare services and other help that might be unknown to the women.

Eighty to 85 per cent of the WTCS time, however, is devoted to the battered wife, Sandy Eiges, financial planning coordinator said.

The staff works in four- or eight-hour shifts, and someone is always on call. Those who want help can call Headquarters, a crisis intervention organization that provides assistance to 840-3560, any time to be immediately referred to a WTCS staff member. Browder said.
volunteer training sessions are held about three times a year, Browder said. Training involves 50 hours of in-class study using community resource people. Topics include crisis intervention, legal services, employment and educational opportunities.

According to Sandy Eiges, the Methodist church has provided necessary funds to build the new church.

"We may end up in the country one of these days."
Bryant said he had discussed the school with Gary Haworth, director of elementary education for Unified School District No. 10 and worked with students interested in the school's development.
Haworth said yesterday, "If we have people on our staff who can help the school and want to help, we won't put any road-blocks in their way."
"We do have grouping by age in some of our schools," he said. "Our feeling is that we offer a variety of approaches throughout the district. Parents have the option to decide which of the district schools their children will attend."
The district is trying to meet children's needs. Haworth said.
Haworth said that he thought the open school would differ from public schools in the degree to which they would offer pupil choice and cross-age grouping of children.
"We're interested in helping children," he said. "New ideas are important to us."
Edwards said he had worked with other
advisors, establishing alternatives to
education that were more effective.
---
He said a common problem was that people mentioned what alternative he could meant to them.
"The problem with alternative education," Edwards said, "is that it's hard to envision a system until you see it—and you can't see it until you have it.
"It's a vicious circle."
