Panhellenic awarded for programs
Kansan staff report
The KU Panhellenic Association was recognized for its work in improving relations between chapels and the university, the group announced Wednesday.
Lisa Garney, Panhellenic president, said the Mid-American Panhellenic Council Association, an organization that comprises cities in 20 states, awarded them an honorable rank for Greek relations and programming.
The group made the presentation at its annual conference March 2, she
said.
Groups such as Greeks Advocating Mature Management of Alcohol and Greeks for Responsible Education Enhancing Cultural Sensitivity are unique, she said.
Garney said the association won the award on the strength of its special programs.
Panhellenic's next step, Garney said, was to try to extend cooperation between the association and groups such as Black Panhellenic and Gay and Lesbian Services of Kansas beyond the leaders of the groups.
"For things to be convergent at the top, people at the top have to work together, or the other members of the group won't support what you're doing," she said.
Mike Sullivan, GLOSK treasurer,
sa heip helped KU Panhellenic would seek to acquaint its members with the issues of all groups.
"The leadership of Panhellenic has been open to me personally and made me more aware of what they are doing," he said. "The leadership has been very positive, but it needs to go farther."
Senate task force discusses plans for improved lighting
Kansan staff report
Last night the Student Senate task force on public safety heard plans for campus lighting that facilities and equipment are scheduled for the next several years.
The most immediate plans, scheduled to be implemented next year, are for lighting along West Campus Road and the path between the parking lot south of Memorial Stadium and the east side of Strong Hall.
Greg Wade, facilities and planning landscape architect, said the task force needed to realize the length of campus lighting improvements.
"From the time that something is
identified as a priority to get funding takes about two years," he said. "We've been working on some phase of campus lighting since about 1984."
Some funding for campus lighting is coming from the Legislature.
The task force discussed how much student-fee money would be needed to alleviate some of the financial burden on students. About $849,000 would be needed to finance new lighting that facilities operations considers important.
Such a fee is not being proposed by any Senate committee or individual senator. Such a proposal is needed before a fee could be instituted.
Arraignment is scheduled for armed robbery suspect
Kansan staff report
A Lawrence resident charged in connection with three local robberies was scheduled for an April 12 arraignment during his preliminary hearing yesterday, said Martin Miller, assistant district attorney.
William D. Norris, 38, 1324 Kentucky St., has been charged with three counts of aggravated robbery and three counts of felony theft.
Norris is charged in connection
with the Feb. 28 armed robbery of Super M 801, 515 McDonald Drive, the March 1 armed robbery of Hird's Retail Liquor Store, 601 Kasold Drive, and the March 2 armed robbery of Barnhart Liquor, 3023 Iowa St.
Miller said that a trial would be set at the arraignment.
In each robbery, the suspect had a long object, which police think was a pump shotgun, concealed under a blanket.
KU may protest against ROTC discrimination
Kansan staff report
KU's role in a national day of action to protest ROTC discrimination against homosexuals and bisexuals will be left undecided until the next University Council meeting April 4.
University Council deferred action yesterday on whether the University of Kansas should participate April 10 in a national protest urged by the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The Council voted to delay action until the Aug. 16 Hoe Committee on Discrimination in ROTC makes its recommendation.
Although the extent of KU's participation in the protest remains unclear, Frances Ingemann, Senate Executive Committee chairperson, did locate the KU campus to educate with other universities to combat ROTC discrimination.
Ingemann received a letter about the nationally coordinated action protesting the Defense Department policy that included the use of Olinnek, a professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
