KU professor is finalist for Marshall presidency
A KU distinguished professor has been named a finalist for the position of president at Marshall University in Huntington, W.Va.
H. George Frederickson, Edwin O. Stene distinguished professor of public administration, will be one of four to five candidates invited back for official campus interviews, said C.T. Mitchell, director of University Relations at Marshall and search committee member.
He said the next phase of the process would take place in early to mid-2015.
A couple of candidates from the original eight finalists have withdrawn from the race and the official announcement of final candidates has not been made yet, Mitchell said. The committee is sure of two of the final candidates, but still is debating on who the other finalists should be.
"I can assure you Dr. Frederickson will be among them," he said.
"He made an extremely good impression here."
After official campus interviews, the committee will then recommend about three candidates to the State Department, which will make the final decision.
"I'm sure our search committee will be in a position before May to make a recommendation to our Board of Trustees." Mitchell said.
Frederickson was unavailable for comment.
From staff reports
City adopts policies on ethics and drugs
By Vanessa Fuhrmans
Kansan staff writer
In one of its last meetings before the election of a new commission, the Lawrence City Commission last night adopted two major policies affecting city employees and elected officials.
The commission unanimously approved a revised city drug and alcohol policy and adopted a resolution establishing a city ethics policy
- two issues the commission had been working on for more than a year.
"This is a refinement of all of our discussions that we have had in the last year," said Commissioner Bob Walters of the ethics resolution.
The resolution, which includes recommendations from various commissioners and board members, prohibits elected and appointed officials from participating in an action where they may receive a direct financial gain.
Although the commission last month stopped short of turning the policy into law, it also voted unanimously to draft an ordinance to remove commissioners and board members from office if they violated the resolution.
Dave Corliss, city management analyst who drafted the resolution, suggested that the commission should delay a year to see if it met the city's needs.
"Ethics is not something you pass along in a resolution," he said. "It's an issue that you will constantly be revisiting."
The commission also voted to distribute a copy of the ethics policy and state statutes regarding ethics to all commissioners, advisory-board members and newly appointed officials.
In other business, the commission approved and adopted revisions to the city's drug and alcohol policy. The revisions, recommended by a mayor's task force on substance abuse, added several stringencies.
The primary revisions included screening all city employees instead of just public safety employees for substance use.
Senate votes to deny funding for Helping Hands Daycare
By Michael Christie
Kansan staff writer
It appears that Helping Hands Daycare will not receive Student Senate financing for next year, after an attempt to overturn a previous ruling failed in the Senate finance committee last night.
John Robertson, graduate senator, spoke to the committee on Helping Hands' behalf. In a finance committee meeting in February, Helping Hands was ruled out of order because it was a practical duplication of the services provided by Hilltop Childcare.
Senate allocates money to Hilltop, and Senate rules and regulations prohibit two organizations that prosecute crimes from receiving money from Senate.
"Obviously, we're suggesting that it's not a duplication of services," Robertson said.
Carl Damon, Senate treasurer,
said Helping Hands members had
met with him and other Senate
members last week. The Helping Hands
supporters were told that they would
have to show that they were making
the center as efficient as possible.
The information the group provided to the finance committee did not contain this information, Damon said.
"I think that each of you needs to realize that there is a real need for them."
Greg Hughes, finance committee member, said the center provided a service to a limited number of students.
Other supporters of Helping Hands were present at the meeting, Belinda Cook, off-campus senator, said the group whether the center was a duplication.
"I think this (Helping Hands) is a knee-jerk solution to the problem," he said.
The center currently has financing to continue operating for the rest of the semester. It requested $19,200 and $370,000 in night灯光 lowered that request to $10,788
In other action, the committee finished discussion on the student organizations' budgets for next year. If it votes today as committee members discussed, the total organization budget for next year will be $70,871.
