UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Cancellation: Calling off minority recruiting effort disappoints some
Continued from Page 1.
then, Wichita representation had grown to be more than two-thirds of the conference participants, with more than 200 students arriving in four buses.
"We had the largest delegation that attended," Wesley said.
He said he had provided the funds for the transportation through grants he had applied for while in office.
When he retired July 31, Wesley's position was filled and the duties of his position were disbursed. No one has taken on his organizational duties for this conference since he left, he said.
Janice Davis is the executive director of diversity programs at the Wichita public schools. She said she had been called by people concerned as to why the conference was canceled.
"I don't know why these people keep calling," Davis said. "What it comes down to is Wichita is being blamed because the symposium isn't going on."
Davis said she had received some of Wesley's duties but had not pursued arranging anything for the conference. She said the counselors would have had to organize student participation for the conference on their own.
Owenstone said the academic and professional programming unit basically organized parts of the conference such as reserving rooms in the Kansas Union, organizing the student registration and taking care of the $25 registration fee. Beyond that, they had nothing more to do with the conference's organization. That was Gordon's responsibility, she said.

"I felt physically sick for about a week and a half," Ovenstone said. "KU is missing out on a recruitment tool."
Cheryl Harris, Atchison high school counselor, said 11 students from her school had signed up to attend and they were looking forward to going. Some of them attended the conference last year.
"I think it's important for any college to recruit at any level. If you want the best and the brightest you have to recruit for them," Harris said. "If you find positive things on a campus, especially in terms of minorities, that's a plus for any school."
