Senate has input ideas Group liaisons, survey planned
The Student Senate hopes to increase student input on vital issues by using phone surveys and student liaisons in University living groups, Brook Menees, student body president, said yesterday.
by a Kansan reporter
"We're trying to set up Student Senate representatives in every residence hall, in scholarship halls, in university and sororities." Menen said.
"It's a real effort on our part to open up Student Senate," he said.
The Senate sent letters to all University living groups in December asking them to appoint liaisons to the Senate. Some living groups have appointed liaisons, who will meet Feb. 16. Menees said.
Senate would need to survey almost 300 people in order to be accurate he said.
The Senate was planning to conduct the phone surveys on important issues before every Senate meeting but now is planning a single survey to see how the system would work, said Steve Brown, communications board chairman and Kansas City, Mo., senior.
Phone surveys haven't begun yet because of a lack of workers, Brown said.

The phone surveys could be in use before Spring Break, Menees said.
"We want to ask relevant questions that mean something to people on campus." he said.

Ice jam creates St. Joseph water shortage
The Associated Press
ST. JOSEPH, Mo. — Schools and many businesses were closed yesterday as the city struggled with a water shortage caused when the Missouri River rio upstream.
"We're kind of holding our own right now," said police Sgt. Jim Connors. "People are probably a bit nervous, they seem to be bearing up pretty well."
The ice jam had broken and a sufficient flow of water was expected to reach St. Joseph on Monday evening.
The iee jam caused the water level on the Missouri to fall below intake valves that transfer the water to the reservoir. In October, the drought last summer, the river is at
its lowest point since 1967
Mayor Blair Conley made a televised appeal last night, saying it was absolutely critical that residents not shower or flush toilets.
The National Guard sent a plane to Chicago to pick up a special pump. The pump arrived about 2:30 a.m. The airport was not working by late afternoon.
