Design seniors teach graphics to appreciative KC students
KU students benefit from the experience
By Benjamin W Kansan staff writer
KU architecture and urban design seniors are teaching graphic communications to students in a Kansas special problem class.
Heili said that the KU students always were enthusiastic and that the high school students enjoyed the class.
Glen Leroy, associate professor of architecture and urban design, saw the opportunity when a teacher from Bishop Hogan High School asked him what could be done to fill the position of a retired drafting teacher.
A group of high school students petitioned the high school to offer the class after the drafting teacher retired. Leroy said.
What evolved was a new class for
the high school students,
students in graphic communication.
"The class combines the skill that our students have with the needs of the community," Leroy said. "It's a good fit."
He said he thought community service was important, and he encouraged students to become active in it.
"What we're trying to do is orient this towards students with an interest in professions that use graphic design," Leroy said.
He said the class particularly was interested in a model-bridge building contest between groups in the class
He said the high school did not have the money to hire someone to teach the class
Leroy said he would like to main-ain the class and even expand it if at all possible.
The contest involves designing and building balsa-wood bridges and then testing their strength.
"I don't know what fate lies ahead for us in Kansas City," he said.
April Pottorf, Kansas City, Mo. senior, is one of the KU students teaching the class. She helped coordinate the class.
"It's turned out better than we had hoped," she said. "It's been great, really."
She said the class was educational for both the high school and University.
"It — the class — involves things that all of us have learned," she said. "It educates us as well, because we learn and learn to book and learn to be able to teach it."
Mary Kay Helli, director of development at Bishop Hogan, said that after the drafting teacher retired, the school could not find a drafting
"The kids seem to like it," Pottertor said. "Instead of just teaching drafting, we are introducing them to engineering and architecture."
Burrus said that some of the students were so competitive with their designs that they had placed bets on bridge would hold more weight.
"They've never had anything like this before." he said.

Women's group fights for equality
Kansan staff writer
Although the event took place 19 years ago, today many women at the University of Kansas still fight for equality.
On Feb. 4, 1972, a group of more than 20 women who called themselves the February Sisters occupied the East Asian Studies Building to demand more attention for women's issues on campus.
memorate the anniversary of the February Sisters' campus sit-in.
About 120 people gathered at t.p. m.
yesterday in the Lawrence Public
Library, 707 Montfort St., for a forum
about sexism and racial discrimination
The event was organized by the KU Women's Studies Program to com-
A four-member panel discussed different aspects of child rearing that they said often led to sexism and racism.
She said that society's messages often were subtle but that they had a strong effect on children.
"Part of it is that they are a little bit confused about what really matters in being a boy and a girl," Huston said.
She said television was one of the
sources of sexism. Toy commercials,
for example, send messages to boys
and girls about the kind of games
each should and should not play.
Lequetta Diggs, Lawrence writer and a member of the panel, said television often engendered racism as well.
Diggs read an autobiographical story about her first impressions of television in the 1950s.
She said that after discussing television with a friend, they decided that white people did not care about African-Americans.
"We also decided that they didn't know us and that they made us what they wanted us to be, not what we really were." Digsg said.
