Nature is class's laboratory Environmental studies course teaches scientific methods
By Liz Kiinger
Kansan staff writer
Collecting water samples from Clinton Lake and surveying insects in a sewage-impacted stream are all in a day's work for Field Methods In Environmental Studies students.
The senior-level class give $ 120 students practical, hands-on experience in collecting and analyzing scientific data.
"They get a chance to pretend they're a real scientist collecting real scientific data," said Diane Debinski, assistant professor of environmental studies who is also one of the course instructors. "Instead of just talking about it, they can actually do it."
Yesterday's EVRN 460 class collected water samples near Clinton Lake Marina. The samples were tested for phosphates, dissolved oxygen, alkalinity and turbidity—the amount of suspended particles.
Becky Hughes, St. Louis senior, tested a water sample for dissolved oxygen.
"You get to see where stuff comes from," said Hughes, who would like to work on environmental issues in city planning. "It's not just in a bottle in a lab. You're doing it for a reason and you actually see what the purpose and experiments are."
The class meets once a week for four hours. Debinki said that about 90 percent of class time was spent outdoors. The class is divided into four ecology sections: lake, terrestrial, stream and small mammal.
Debinski said the lake ecology section of the class compared the water chemistry in Clinton and Lone Star lakes. She said the section on small-mammal ecology was probably the most popular. In that section, students capture live, small animals at the Kansas Ecological Reserve 10 miles north of Lawrence for three weeks. They estimate the mammals' population sizes and habit preferences in different grasslands.
"There's an element of adventure because you never know what's going to happen sometimes with respect to weather or the different species you might see," Debinski said.
"It's so wonderful to actually get out in nature," said Anna Seay, Topeka senior. "It kind of reminds us what our goals are."
Karin McCoy, Omaha, Neb., senior, measures the alkalinity of the water in Clinton Lake. McCoy went on a field trip yesterday with her environmental studies 460 class in order to measure the oxygen and phosphate levels of the lake.

Slattery enters governor's race
By Tracl Carl
Kansan staff writer
But working for a Kansas gubernatorial candidate will be a different story, he said.
Working as an intern at U.S. Rep. Jim Slattery's Topeka office has been the usual office work, Paul Davis, Lawrence senior, said.
Yesterday at press conferences in Overland Park, Wichita, Kansas City, Kan. and Topeka, Slattery confirmed speculation that he was running for governor when he announced his candidacy for the Democratic nomination.
"I believe I have the experience to lead Kansas into the 1990s and beyond," Slattery told a packed crowd at the Florentine Room at the Javawk Tower in Topeka.
Slattery said at the Topeka conference the reception he had received at all four stops had been good. But the last one in Topeka was the best turnout, he said.
He also stressed the need for safer cities.
Some issues Slattery said he would focus on were jobs that would encourage today's youths to stay in Kansas, health care insurance that every Kansan could afford and quality education.
"This is the special one," he said. "This is home."
"We must make our community
safe," he said. "We must stand up together against this insane violence that threatens us all."
Jim Slattery
Slattery said he supported the existing Kansas abortion law, which guarantees a
woman's right to an abortion as long as the fetus can not survive outside of the womb. But he said he did not support state-funded abortion except in cases of rape, incest or life-threatening conditions.
Davis said he thought Slattery represented the majority view on abortion.
"Often times you see the extreme views on abortion," Davis said. "His view is a moderate one."
Davis also said he thought Slattery would be a strong supporter of higher education.
Since 1983, Slattery has served as U.S. Representative of the 2nd District, which includes the northeast corner of Douglas County.
"He understands the importance of colleges and universities in Kansas," Davis said. "He knows its vital to the economic future of Kansas to give our students the best education they can have."
"The last four years that Slattery has been in Washington, Barkis has been dealing with Kansas issues on a day to day basis," Cole said.
for former Kansas Speaker of the House and democratic candidate Marvin Barkis, said Slattery had been in Washington too long to be an effective leader in Kansas.
But Kay Cole, campaign manager
Utley Bush, Miami senior, said he thought Slattery's experience in Washington would help Kansas.
"I think today when you need federal aid, like with the flood, you need someone who knows the ins and out," Bush said.
The third democratic runner, Joan Wagnon, could not be reached for comment.
Russell Getter, associate professor of political science and government, said Slattery's entry into the race made it more competitive.
"He has demonstrated repeatedly that he knows how to win elections," Getters said.
But Wagnon's strong pro-choice stance and her sharp, quick style made her a strong candidate, Getter said.
"People who back Wagon are absolutely devoted to her," he said. "She's conversant on a wide range of issues in Kansas and I think she attracts the intellectual sect because of that."
