An exhibit that opens today at the Spencer Research Library's Kansas Collection will remind students of an important part of Black history.

It will open in conjunction with a banquet sponsored by the University of Kansas Center For Black Leadership Development and Research.
"Black Kansas Teachers: A Proud Tradition," honors Black educators who were born, raised and educated in Kansas.

The exhibit, which will run through April 15, features papers, personal letters, yearbooks, photographs and other educator's materials.
The center will honor six Black educators for their achievements in teaching, public service and educational leadership. The banquet also will be used to encourage young students to pursue the field of education.
Officials agree that the number of Black educators in the United States has fallen drastically.
"It is so different today — teaching no longer has status in the Black community like it did," said Deborah Dandridge, field archivist and historian for the Black History Collection in the Kansas Collection.
Professor Jacob Gordon, executive director of the University of Kansas Center For Black Leadership Development and Research, said the department was not as lucrative as other professions such as engineering or law.
Gordon said there were not enough
In fact, there is no Black guidance counselors at Lawrence High School, he said.
Charles Parks, assistant principal at Lawrence High, said there were four Black teachers and one Black administrator at the high school.
Black role models, teachers or guidance counselors in the schools.
Parks said guidance counselors were responding to a decreasing demand for teachers. Education was not the No.1 emphasis, he said.
However, Brad Tate, Lawrence High School principal, said, "I don't know how they are discouraged from going into the teaching profession."
Gordon said guidance counselors were discouraging Black students from teaching before they even got out of high school.
Proposal may reduce out-of-state fees

TOPEKA - Students could benefit from lower tuition costs and better education if legislation before the Senate Education Committee becomes law.
The committee heard testimony yesterday on a bill that would create a Midwestern Higher Education Commission in Kansas. Similar legislation is being considered by other states.
If five of 12 Midwestern states were to pass legislation by 1995, a Midwestern Higher Education Compact could be formed.
He said the program would have three primary purposes: to expand education opportunities, to strengthen the quality of educational programs and to save money. But
Phil Sirotkin, senior adviser for the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education (WICHE), said the state had not raised a state for the first year of operation.
But he said his program and others like it had resulted in savings for students and institutions, as well as the state.
senators expressed concerns about the costs of such a program.
"In any case, I can say it would mean lower costs for students and their families." Sirotkin said.
High quality programs could be developed at individual schools without duplicates at other institutions, which would save money.
Through agreements made by the compact, students could take part in programs in other states at reduced or possibly eliminated tuition fees.
The compact also would act as an information source for the Legislature and schools within the state.
"They saved millions of dollars by avoiding high cost academic programs that are duplicates," he said.
"Hopefully this will enable us to be more efficient in providing what higher education needs," said State Sen. Ross Doyen, R-Concordia.
Sirotkin said similar compacts had been in effect in other parts of the United States for more than 30 years.
