University Daily Kansan / Monday, January 28, 1991 5 Finney picks publisher, educator to fill Board of Regents vacancies By Eric Nelson Kansan staff writer With the appointments of John G. Montgomery and Robert Caldwell, Gov Joan Finney on Friday filled the vacancies on the Board of Regents. Montgomery, a publisher in Junction City, is serving on the board for a second time. He was an appointee of former Gov. John Carlin from January 1862 to June 1868 and served as chairman of chairmen from 1983 to 1984 Carlin said the selection of Montgomery was a logical choice based on his past experience with the Regents and his interest in higher education. "He has proven himself in an ambition that is not easily met." He has proven himself in an earlier time," he said. Montgomery was the Democratic nominee for lieutenant governor in 1986. He had resigned from the board to become Tom Docking's running mate in Docking's unsuccessful bid for the governorship. Caldwell, a retired high school graphic arts instructor, served one term in the Kansas House of Representatives from 1977 to 1979. He has been active in Salina politics, serving as governor for eight years, from 1969 to 1977. Caldwell, who taught at Salina Central High School, was named Kansas teacher of the year in 1976. He has been the recipient of the 1960 Governor's Martin Luther King Jr. award, the 1990 Cordia Wesson Achievement award of the NAACP and the 1990 public service award of Kansas State University. Caldwell said that through his legislative experience, he has had ties with the University of Kansas. He said that with many cutbacks taking place in the Legislature, it may be an interesting legislative session. Caldwell said he was unsure of the issues facing the Regents. With the appointment taking place Friday, he had not had the time to examine the INVESTIGATIONS Montgomery said the issues most likely had not changed since he was last on the board. He said three main issues most likely facing the Regents would be the budget, open admissions and the possible entrance of Washburn University into the Regens system. Montgomery, Caldwell and Jo Ann McDowell, who was appointed Jan. 16, will serve four-year terms upon approval by the Kansas Senate. ■ The Associated Press contributed information to this story.

Regina Strong, support group coor dinator, also thought GLSOK was missing people who felt isolated and needed more support and time to feel fully comfortable about their sexual- "I hope that the people out there who are feeling hurt and stressed will accept themselves," she said. "The person that gives them a safe place to go." Strong, who works at Headquarters, a private counseling center, said she wanted the group to ease the pain that many gays, lesbians and bisexuals feel in an oppressive homophobic world.
