Students mull KUAC role
more than $2.5 million is taken in and spent annually by the University of Kansas Athletic Corporation, and four KU students are on probation in deciding how that money will be spent.
The four students, who are representatives on the 20-member KUAC board of directors, became highly visible recently when they made public discussions about a proposal to award the annual KU-Misouri football game to Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo.
Jill Grubbaugh, chairman of the Student Senate Sports Committee and censoror of a Senate resolution opposing the possible move to Arrowhead, said yesterday that the university would not that issue might damage the effectiveness of student board members in the future.
"I THINK A lot of the alumni and the KUAC administrators think that what we did was wrong and that that put us in some jeopardy," she said. "It's going to take us out of their respect. But from the faculty and administrators, I we gotten a lot of support."
Cyclle Walker, director of athletics, had asked the board not to discuss publicly the talks with Missouri officials about moving the football game to Arrowhead.
After the Senate passed the resolution opposing any plan to move the game to Arrowhead, Walker said that he welcomed any student views but that he couldn't discuss the talks with Missouri officials until later.
CLARK COAN, dean of foreign students at UTSA, said he would guard student views
"I think students give us some of the best input there on the board," Coan said.
"They ask the proper questions and keep the rest of us on our toes."
Dave Shapiro, a student board member,
and that no one group controlled the
schools.
"Now, obviously, the KUACAC knows their feelings probably carry a bit of weight," Shapiro said. "But, with the exception of the last meeting, students are not confident."
It was at that last meeting that the board voted to continue discussions with the University of Missouri about moving the KU-Missouri football game to Arrowhead.
SHAPRO SAID that a check of board meeting minutes since 1971 showed that almost every vote was unanimous or one dissent. The only close vote during that time came on a proposal to rescind a policy against the use of 25 per cent of any net profit of the KUWA to do unto University account to be used at the discretion of the chancellor.
THE BOARD voted not to rescind the policy but to redefine it the net profit as the total profit left at year's end, minus depreciation and capital improvements.
Sapiro told the board's action on this proposal was an example of effective leadership.
*"Student representation fought abovelog the policy, and I think there will someday be a change."*
Walker said the definition of net profit was a realistic one because it allowed for part of the total profit to be used for capital improvements.
He said that the NCAA projected that 80 to 90 per cent of the nation's colleges and universities would lose money in their programs during the next few years.
No action taken on groups
No action will be taken against two University of Kansas student organizations that failed to report their last year's carryover balance on a financial statement to the Student Senate treasurer earlier this year.
The decision to not take action against the groups, Campus Veterans and the Commission on the Status of Women, was made last week after a meeting with representatives of the organizations and Bob Beisner, Senate treasurer, and Randy McKernan, chairman of the Senate Finance and Auditing Committee.
"We'll report back to the committee (finance and auditing) that it was strictly a misunderstanding because of the way they"
form was wored and that there is no problem." Beisner said after the meeting.
The meeting with the two groups grew out of a recent audit of student organization accounts by Beisner. The audit revealed that the groups had failed to report their last year's cash balance of their company on a financial report made to Beisner.
Representatives of both groups said they didn't understand that they had to include the balance on the form because of the way the form is delivered. The form asks for "income sings" July 1.
Beisner said that the forms would be worded more concisely next year and that the Senate would keep a closer check on all organizations organization accounts funded by the Senate.

"ITHINK WE'RE totally dependent upon winning and losing as far as profit is concerned," he said. "We need some capital improvements to keep up a winning program, so I don't foresee any large profit."
Sapiro said the policy was, at worst, an indication of support to the University when no profit occurred. At best, he said, it is a business case in university when the KUAC muckes a net profit.

CHEVETTE VS RABBIT
(a brutally honest comparison)
CHEVETTE
Smallest of popular Chevrolet species, indigenous to North America. Easy to own and care for, surprisingly tough and spacious for its size. Four wheels, four cylinders, big rear hatch, front disc brakes, rack-and-pinion steering. A lovable car with special appeal for people with limited budgets and plenty of places to go.
RABBIT
A small, long-eared mammal of the hare family, technically one of the lagomorphs. Native of southern Europe and northern Africa. Four legs, one tail. Hops about, multiples indiscriminately and often becomes a pest.
