CAMPUS SAFETY
Students react to
parking lot crime
A KU student was involved in a case
of battery in Lot 112 near Oliver Hall last
Monday. Since then, residents have
made a conscious effort to keep parking
lots safe.
People are being more cautious now
because of incidents such as that one.
Curry Curtis, Olathe freshman, said
Oliver put up composite sketches of the
suspect in the battery on elevators, bath-
rooms and front doors. The suspect hit a
19-year-old female under her right eye
and then fled toward 19th Street. Police
have not identified the subject and are
still investigating the case.
Its scary, Curtis said. It made me
think more about what Im doing.
Curtis said she worked late as a server
and did not think too much about safety
issues before the incident.
She said her mother, along with two
police officers she knew through mutual
friends, taught her to tightly hold her
keys in her fingers when she walked to
her car at night. In the event of an
attack, one could stab the attacker with
the keys and open the car door to get
away immediately, she said.

The University of Kansas
School of Pharmacy Building
Committee plans to build a new
building on West Campus to
bring all its students and faculty
under one roof. The school is
mostly housed in Malott Hall,
which was built to accommo-
date about 250 students. With
more than 600 students now
enrolled in the school, a bigger
and more up-to-date building is
necessary.
A committee of faculty and
students with the school are
working together to find fund-
ing for a new pharmacy building
on West Campus within the
next five years.
Were trying to adapt to
rooms built for an old program
and its just not working,
Kenneth Audus, dean of phar-
macy, said.
In 1981, the school took up
residence in the newest wing of
Malott.
A previous five-year program
was changed to a six-year doc-
torate program, and the school
has increased research activity.
Audus said the growth has
done much for the schools
prestige and research, but has
wreaked havoc on resources.
Lab space is inefficient and fac-
ulty and resources are divided

After singing songs, including It is Well with My Soul, Gianna Jessen spoke last night about surviving abortion. Jessen
said her mother attempted to abort her as a 7-month-old fetus. Jessen praised President Bush, said she was unashamed to
be a Christian and spoke about her anti-abortion stance.

The story of her life
Gianna Jessen didnt pull any
punches last night.
Im not one to shy away from con-
troversy so Ill start right off the bat,
Jessen said. They starved Terri
Schiavo, said she was a vegetable.
They said the same thing about me,
that I would be a vegetable, she said.
Jessen said her biological mother
attempted to abort her 28 years ago
today when she was 7 1/2 months
pregnant.
But Jessen survived. Because she
lost oxygen to the brain during the
procedure, Jessen has cerebral palsey.
She shared her story as she has for
the last 14 years with about 700 stu-
dents and Lawrence residents last
night at the Kansas Union Ballroom.
Jessens appearance was the main
event of the Stand Up for LIFE week
sponsored by KU Students for LIFE.
Calling her cerebral palsy a gift, Jessen
said Americans need to stop treating
people with disabilities as victims.
She said Americans needed to
crave life more than death.
Im just made for a fight, she said.
I would never have all this if I didnt
have this struggle. Pain is not the
worst thing.
Jessen answered a question about her
opinion on allowing abortion for rape
victims by saying that she does not
advocate abortion. She said she knew
women in that situation and that it was
horrible, but she added that it was only
one percent of all abortions.
We are not God, she said. It is not
up to us to give or take life, she said.
But she said she did not speak to
condemn women who had abortions
or who contemplated the idea.
Jessen referred to her beliefs when
asked about stem cell research.
Human beings should not meddle
with certain ability only meant for
God to handle, she said.
I just dont believe we were made
to do some of the things we are
doing, she said.
Anne Liggett, Portland, Ore., fresh-
man, said she didnt know what to
expect from Jessen before the speech,
but she appreciated her straightfor-
wardness.
She stands and speaks the truth

Kansas votes yes
Kansas became the 18th state
to pass a constitutional amend-
ment prohibiting same-sex mar-
riage last night, according to
unofficial vote tallies. While
about 70 percent of the state
voted to pass the amendment,
more than 60 percent in Douglas
County voted against it.
Daniel Rea, activism chair for
KU Queers and Allies, said he
expected the amendment would
pass. The St. Louis freshman
said expecting people to accept
same-sex marriage was too big
of an idea too soon.
You cant push for every-
thing, Rae said. You need to
make the small changes first.
Although he expected the
results, Rea said he felt
depressed and frustrated.
You feel lonely and isolated to
live in a state where the majority
of people who surround you dis-
agree with your way of life.
Rea said that living in an area
where people voted against the
amendment added to his sense
of security.
It says a lot about the
younger generation being ready
for a change, Rea said.
Lee Bickerstaff, Emporia sen-
ior, said he expected Douglas
County to vote against the
amendment while the rest of the
state voted to pass it. He said he
voted in favor of the amend-
ment because it could benefit
Kansas culture.
I believe homosexual unions
are outside of Gods design,
Bickerstaff said. Its a step in
the right direction to promote
people seeking a better culture.

If everything goes KUniteds way,
campus will become a healthier place.
One of the main issues on
KUniteds platform is to purchase
energy from renewable sources for all
student-funded buildings through a
green-tag system, which produces
clean and healthy energy, instead of
energy produced with fossil fuels.
The green tag is simply a paper cer-
tificate an energy company gives after
the purchase of energy. The certificate
says how much energy has been pur-
chased and for what purpose.
The only student-funded building
on campus now is the Student
Recreation Fitness Center, but the
new Multicultural Resource Center
would also fall under that category.
Green tags relay energy from wind-
mills to other locations to provide
energy that is not harmful to the envi-
ronment. The energy gets relayed by
purchasing energy from a company
and reserving it for a certain building,
Jason Boots, Plano, Texas, junior said.
One such company is Pristine Power,
the company that made the initial
green-tag presentation to Student
Senate.
Boots, who has been working with
green tags for Senate, said that the
company that would supply the ener-
gy has a power grid,
and the one closest
to campus would be
used for the Student
Recreation Fitness
Center.
Nick Sterner, pres-
idential candidate for
KUnited, said right
now the program is
in the research
phase, and KUnited
is trying to gather as
much information
about renewable
energy and green
tags as possible.
There was sup-
posed to be a pro-
posal for a $1 fee to
fund green tags at
the Senate meeting
tonight. Jeff Dunlap,
student body vice president, withdrew
the bill from Senate, and said there
had to be more research done before a
fee was proposed to the student body.
Sterner agreed with Dunlap and
was involved in the decision to with-
draw the bill. Sterner said there was a
task force that was just formally put
together to look into bringing green
tags to campus.
Right now, the task force is talking
to different companies about prices,
Sterner said. They are also looking
into what type of power, either wind or
solar, that the campus would use.
Sterner, Shawnee junior, said green
tags could be either wind powered,
solar powered or hydrogen powered.
If it is decided not to build windmills
in the Flint Hills area, then Sterner
said a likely choice would be to go to
solar-powered green tags.
There has not been a decision
about how renewable energy would
be paid for. Dunlap said he thought a
change to student fees would be nec-
essary to fund it.
Sterner said that it was too early to
determine how much the project would
cost, and that there might be enough
money in either the Senates surplus
funds or reserve funds to pay for it.
There are two options that Senate
could pursue to bring green tags to
campus. Sterner said they could either
do a pilot, which is a one-year trial
program or fund the project long-term.
Either way, the first priority, Sterner
said, is to bring renewable energy to
the Student Recreation Fitness Center.
We want to do everything we can
to fund the buildings that students
already pay for, Sterner said.
Eventually, Sterner said KUnited
would look into bringing green tags to
the new Multicultural Resource Center.
Sterner thinks this is one of the big-
ger issues on the KUnited platform,
and thinks it could benefit students.

Actor Mandy Patinkin to appear
at University Theatre fundraiser
Members of the KU Friends of the
Theatre decided they needed some
star power to help raise money.
So they asked
Mandy Patinkin,
known for playing
the death-avenging
Inigo Montoya in
the 1986 film, The
Princess Bride, to
come by for an inter-
view.
A Conversation
with Mandy
Patinkin will be
modeled after the Bravo show Inside
the Actors Studio.
Its an in-depth interview without
the actors promoting anything, said
Kip Grosshans, president of the KU
Friends of the Theatre.
Theater and film students will have
an interest in asking Patinkin about
the film industry, Grosshans said.
I need to come up with some good
questions to ask him so I dont look like
an idiot, Eric Avery, Topeka junior, said.
In addition to the interview
Grosshans wrote a musical medley
that will be performed by three
University of Kansas students high-
lighting aspects of Patinkins career.
The performance features musical
blurbs from Evita, Sunday in the
Park with George, Dick Tracy and
Fiddler on the Roof, which Patinkin
performed in while he attended the
University from 1970 to 1972.
The group will have only three
group rehearsals before Saturdays
performance because all of the per-
formers are in shows or have other
commitments, Avery, who is singing in
the performance, said.
Its a challenge, he said. It goes
from one thing to another and the
music is complicated in structure.
Matt Jacobson, associate professor
of theatre and film, is constructing a
film montage of Patinkin on stage and
on screen.The montage will show the
breadth of his work, Jacobson said.
Everyone remembers him from
The Princess Bride, but not every-
body knows him from the Showtime
series Dead Like Me or Broadway,
he said. Hes been in everything from
Alien Nation to Sesame Street.
Proceeds from the benefit will go to
help fund a scholarship for theatre
and film students and an installation
of a digital personal sound amplifica-
tion system, which helps hearing-
impaired patrons by giving them
receivers that pick up transmissions
from the theaters sound board.
This system will be installed into
the Crafton-Preyer Theatre and costs
about $10,000, Grosshans said.
The KU Friends of the Theatre do a
fundraiser like the one scheduled for
Saturday night about once every three
years.

War occurrences
symposiums focus
The University of Kansas will
host a three-day symposium
tomorrow through Saturday to
discuss the experiences of sol-
diers who served in World War II.
Twenty-one participants from
throughout the United States
are expected to take part in lec-
tures and panel discussions.
I try to do at least one of
these per year, said Jonathan
Earle, program director for the
Robert J. Dole Institute of
Politics. I thought it was appro-
priate this year since it is the
60th anniversary of the end of
World War II and also coincides
with Senator Doles book about
being a soldier in the war.
A lecture to kick off the sym-
posium will be held at 7:30 p.m.
tomorrow in the Kansas Union.
The subsequent events will take
place at the Dole Institute.

Missing woman
found raising birds
OKLAHOMA CITY A con-
victed murderer and a deputy
wardens wife who disappeared
nearly 11 years ago have been
found living together and rais-
ing chickens in Texas. The
woman said she was held cap-
tive the whole time, staying
with the killer out of fear her
family would be harmed if she
fled. Bobbi Parker, 42, has been
reunited with her husband,
who never remarried, and
authorities were trying yester-
day to piece together details of
the strange case.
The Associated Press
are each responsible for one committee:
Comedy & Concerts, Cultural Arts,
Films, Games & Novelty, Social Issues
or Traditions. Connealy said that to
come up with new ideas for events, the
executive members have committee
meetings with everyone in the organiza-
tion, where they brainstorm and vote on
which events they would like to pursue.
SUA also relies on many volun-
teers to help come up with event
ideas and run events. Connealy said
any student can get involved with
SUA, suggesting event ideas and vol-
unteering at events.
Every year, SUA sponsors its events
with a budget of about $100,000 from
the KU Memorial Unions. This is
unusual compared to other KU
groups, which run on student fees.
But following this years campus
election, SUAs budget could triple.
Student Senate recently passed a bill
to add a referendum to this springs
voting ballot in which students can
vote whether to add $5 to their activi-
ty fees to go to SUA. Connealy said
with the student fee, SUA could get
more high-profile guests.
Already, extensive planning goes
into SUAs programming. Members
are consistently researching comedi-
ans and music talent, often facing con-
flicts between open dates at the Lied
Center and celebritys schedules. They
also come up with a budget for each
potential event before they go into a
board meeting, Connealy said.
Peart said the main purposes of
SUA were to give students options for
involvement outside the classroom
and to program fun events for the
campus and community.
The organization serves for train-
ing and leadership, so it has an educa-
tional purpose as well as outreach,
Peart said.
Shawn Harrell, St. Louis senior,
saw Bill Cosby speak at Allen
Fieldhouse during Homecoming Week
last fall, an event SUA helped sponsor.
It made me appreciate KU, that
such a high-profile, well-respected
celebrity came here, Harrell said. I
was glad to be able to experience it.
Adrienne Harris, Ark City senior,
said that of all SUA events, she has
only gone to the movies.
Its cheap, $2 to go to a movie. Its
cheaper than going to a movie theater,
and the movies are not very old.
Currently, SUA is planning several
special events for the end of the
semester. Recess, a just-for-kicks event
featuring human bowling and a climb-
ing wall will be held on the lawn in
front of Stauffer-Flint Hall. SUA will
hold a bluegrass festival on the hill by
Potter Lake. And some small concerts
will be performed during the Kansas
Relays, April 21-23.
SUA meetings are open to all stu-
dents, and the organization takes sug-
gestions for any hair-brained ideas for
events.
We encourage people to stop by
the office or just come to one of our
meetings, Connealy said.

and I have a lot of respect
for that, Liggett said.
Jessen also mentioned
that she has forgiven her
biological mother, which
surprised Aubrey Dahl,
Leawood freshman, who
was expecting a more nega-
tive reaction.
Its just really inspiring
that someone could over-
come trials and wake up
each day and look at life in
the perspective she has,
Dahl said.
Jessen praised President
Bush and Jesus Christ,
which prompted applause
and several amens from
the audience.
She met the president on
Aug. 5, 2002 the day he
signed the Born-Alive
Infants Protection Act,
which guarantees that live-
born infants, regardless of
their stage of development
if they survived an abortion,
would receive full legal
rights under federal law.
She said Bush told her he
would not give up on her.
Mariah Wolken, Greeley
freshman, said she didnt
know what to think about
about Jessens speech.
I think her story is really
neat and she should contin-
ue to talk about it, she said.

Life
The state constitution
will be amended on Friday
after all votes have been cer-
tified. The amendment will
limit the definition of mar-
riage to a civil contract
between one man and one
woman only. It will also
deny the rights and inci-
dents of marriage to all rela-
tionships except marriage.
That raises some legal
issues, said Richard Levy,
professor in the Universitys
School of Law.
For example, married cou-
ples have enhanced penalties
for domestic violence.
People in non-married rela-
tionships use to have similar
domestic violence penalties
as married couples.
Under the new amend-
ment, a non-married person
charged with domestic vio-
lence could argue for less
strict penalties than those
enforced against married
people, Levy said.
The argument is there to
be made, Levy said.
He said the amendment
also raised issues about how
child custody was deter-
mined for non-married cou-
ples and how businesses
provided benefits to non-
married couples.
The courts will have to
sort it out, Levy said.

among the seven buildings the
school occupies, Audus said.
Having faculty in so many dif-
ferent places has caused prob-
lems, Audus said. Faculty rush
between buildings to teach and
do research, and students have a
hard time reaching their profes-
sors.
Space is dictating how we
teach and thats not how it
should be done, he said.
A new building would bring
all research and teaching togeth-
er for the first time since the late
80s, Audus said.
Funds for the new building
would come from alumni,
whom he began meeting with a
year ago when he became dean.
No definite plans for the new
building have been drawn up,
Audus said.
The schools work in research
and need for teaching space has
made the new building a big
issue for students and faculty,
said Jake Stolz, Colwich fourth-
year pharmacy student and class
president.
When I sit in on meetings, all
the faculty are really excited,
Stolz said.
Stolz is one of three class
presidents for pharmacy stu-
dents on the board.
He said being split up is a
pain for students as well as fac-
ulty, and both are happy about
the prospect of a new building.
There are student concerns
about parking and the availabil-
ity of food services on West
Campus, but Stolz said those
problems will be worked out
during the next several years.

I dont know if many other

said. My mom taught me to do
that and shes paranoid.
A separate incident involved a
KU student walking on cars in
Olivers parking lot late on
March 5. When a group saw him,
he jumped off of the car he was
on top of and hit a 19-year-old
male KU student, according to
the police report. He then got
into a car with two women, who
told him to get out of the car. As
he got out, he touched one of
them on her breast. KU Police
arrested the student and charged
him with sexual battery, battery
and criminal damage.
There have been 65 reported
thefts and nine reported cases of
assault and battery in residence
hall parking lots during the past
five years, according to the KU
Public Safety Office. Capt.
Schuyler Bailey, KU Public
Safety Office, said four of these
cases came from two incidents in
which both individuals filed
charges against each other.
Scholarship hall parking lots
experienced security issues as
well.
There have been 29 reported
complaints to the KU Police
Department in scholarship hall
parking lots since 2000, Bailey
said.
Reports ranged from criminal
damage to urinating in public.
Taylor Price, Overland Park
sophomore, said parking at schol-
arship halls was more of a problem
than most people thought. Price
lives in Douthart Scholarship Hall,
1345 Louisiana St.
Two weeks ago, someone
came back drunk from the bars,
jumped from a wall onto the
hood of my car and drew a smi-
ley face with the dust on it,
Price said of the way he thought
the incident occurred.
Douthart is located about a
block away from the Hawk,
1340 Ohio St., and the Wheel,
507 W. 14th St. Price said her
car got damaged at Lot 122,
which is the parallel parking on
Louisiana Street.
Ken Stoner, director of stu-
dent housing, said scholarship
halls needed to be particularly
attentive to bar traffic at night
because of their location. Its
different than the residence
halls, which are not located by
any bars, he said.
Its not like youre walking
on Jayhawk Boulevard, Stoner
said.
Jamie Hickok, Douthart resi-
dent and Wichita sophomore,
had her side-view mirrors dam-
aged on the Louisiana Street
parallel parking lot.
I have to pay for everything
myself when it comes to my car,
so I was mad that I had to shell
out $200 to get my mirrors
fixed, Hickok said.
As for Price, she just wants to
see her car remain unharmed.
Its frustrating because the
scholarship hall residents are
some of the most active,
involved and successful stu-
dents on campus, Price said.
Its very unfortunate that our
cars seem to be sustaining the
most damages on campus from
any residential group.

So lets recap the year in sports: First the Royals were
predicted to win the division, and they suck. The Chiefs
were predicted to go to the Superbowl, and they suck.
KU football was supposed to be much, much better.
They played great for three and a half quarters every
game, but they suck. Theres no hockey playoffs. KU for-
gets how to play basketball in the spring and loses in the
first round to Bucknell, and Roy wins the national title.
Watching Roy Williams win a championship is like your

ex marrying a model and you being forced to watch the
honeymoon video.
Roy, you got some brownie points for mentioning us, but
Bill, we love you.
You know, I just have to say it. Go,

Roy.
You should change the name of this

paper to The University Daily
Liberal.
The greatest thing about the

Internet: You can buy ammunition.
You really should have called me

back Saturday night. I was going to
sleep with you this time.
Chancellor Hemenway, is there any way I can sunbathe

nude by the fountains?
To the two girls who unexpectedly got sprayed by the

sprinklers at Budig Hall, you just made my day. Thanks.
When boys say theyre going to call and then dont, it

makes me want to punch them in the testicles.
KUnited, quit pestering me.
You think maybe Galindo realized that Self signed two

HIGGINS PERSPECTIVE
GUEST COMMENTARY
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
The Museum of Anthropology at the
University of Kansas houses cultural collections
representative of indigenous peoples across the
globe. These collections represent the cultural
diversity that the University claims to support.
But I am gravely concerned about the poor
condition that these cultural collections are in
and the lack of staffing available to properly care
for and preserve these collections. Despite the
expertise of the current staff and their willing-
ness to help student researchers, often their
administrative duties and other tasks in running
the museum limit their availability to students.
Several years ago, the University cut the
Museum of Anthropology budget, eliminating
staff, including a curator position, thus leaving
the museum and its collections in jeopardy.
Almost three years ago KU administration
closed the museum to the public, further elimi-
nating grant avenues available to the museum.
If the University is really committed to its stu-
dents and their research, the administration will
step up and consider how it can better support
the museum financially and administratively.
The University has a responsibility to ensure
that the Museum of Anthropologys collections
are properly cared for and not left sitting on
dusty shelves to deteriorate.
I am aware that other departments on cam-
pus, such as Anthropology, Archaeology, Art
History, Museum Studies and Indigenous
Nations Studies, use collections in the museum.
If the University fails to support this museum
and allows these collections to disappear, these
departments and other students will no longer
have access to these collections for research
purposes, and it will be detrimental to the future
of my masters thesis.

There is a slaughter of Harp seals going on
in Canada. In the slaughter that will run
through May, at least 300,000 animals will be
shot or clubbed. Counting the animals killed
this year, a total of 975,000 have been slaugh-
tered since 2003.
Most seals killed are between two and 12
weeks old, unable to swim and completely
helpless. They are skinned so their pelts can
be used for coats. In previous years some 42
percent of the seals may have been skinned
alive and conscious, according to research
conducted by independent veterinarians.
Hunters are supposed to ensure the seals
are dead, but an observer from the Humane
Society of the United States stated that she
had seen seals moving and crying left in piles
to die, as well as live seals stomped and
impaled.
The justification for this slaughter is that fish-
stocks need to replenish themselves. But there
is evidence that the problem is not the seals, but
over-fishing.
The United States Senate passed Resolution
33 this year urging Canada to stop the hunt in
part because of this evidence.
Many groups, including the Human Society
of the United States, are spearheading a boy-
cott of Canadian seafood in an effort to end
such hunts.
I urge you to join this boycott and write let-
ters to Canadas prime minister and the minister
of Canadas department of fisheries and oceans.
Please help end this.

The author of the
Thursday letter to the editor
accused Ann Coulter,
Vickers Memorial speaker, of
disrespecting the University
community.
Whatever a university
community is, Coulters
shenanigans were only
alleged. Liberals disrespect
for the open exchange of ideas, however, was
proven that night.
The disrespectful rhetoric at the Lied Center was
not coming from the stage. Coulters detractors
attending the event with preconceived notions, i.e.
marked pages in their Al Franken books, simply
attended waiting for words they disliked before
they started banging their spoons on their high-
chairs, which took approximately 30 seconds.
Too often people have a problem not with con-
tent but with the messenger.
As a woman who advocates freedom of
speech Coulter found it difficult to speak over
those awkwardly trying to recreate some 60s-era
scene by yelling hackneyed slogans. Freedom of
speech doesnt mean yelling fascist in a crowd-
ed theatre.
To say the hecklers were challenging
Coulter would be disingenuous. They were, how-
ever, challenging repeated requests to act more
civilly. While mocking Coulter they were con-
temporaneously becoming the butt of the joke.
Coulter has written that within minutes of dis-
cussing the Middle East, a liberal often squeals
Halliburton and proudly thinks hes made a
point.
A few minutes into Coulters speech about
Iraq, a young man in the balcony shouted a stag-
gering one word argument: Halliburton!
Touch.
Showing slightly more cunning than the young
lady behind me who called Coulter anti-
Semitic, several detractors prefaced effusive yet
uninformed questions with Im not a liberal
but... Im not a conservative, but I think we
should lower taxes, abolish race-based quotas
and out-law killing unborn babies because the
mother doesnt want to raise it after having con-
ceived it.
See, it doesnt work.
Because many hecklers refused to compose
themselves from the beginning, Coulter asked
the College Republicans to do free what the ush-
ers should have already done. Gasp. Most of the
ushers apparently thought the extent of their job
was to sternly fold their
arms and huddle by the
exits.
The author claimed
Coulter made irreverent
comments about minorities
including brown men.
Coulter explained
President Bushs Middle East
policies, which are spreading
democracy, closing death camps, etc. To the embar-
rassment of liberals, these policies are supported by
Middle Easterners.
Coulter referred to democracys supporters in the
Middle East as our brown brothers. Because broth-
er was the more important half of Coulters allitera-
tion, liberals were again prepared to focus on whatev-
er they could re-contextualize as hate speech.
Brown man and brown brother sound sim-
ilar, but someone listening closely should have
understood that Coulter was not referring to
minorities. Note: Iraqis in Iraq are not minorities.
If the author was seated among the sophomoric
hecklers, perhaps she misunderstood becuse of
their clamoring. Whereas the hecklers themselves
misunderstood because of either their lack of apti-
tude or tolerance.
About eight million Iraqi brown brothers
voted in the January elections. John Kerry said
that would never happen. A fact conveniently
ignored by Bush-hating feminists is that half of
them were women. We can call them brown sis-
ters to be fair.
The author could better express her disgust for
irreverence by reminding the Rev. Jesse Jackson
that fathering children out of wedlock was irrev-
erent. She might remind the Rev. Al Sharpton that
inciting disorder in the streets of Brooklyn, N.Y.,
resulting in the beating deaths of several
shopowners, was irreverent.
Would the aforementioned young lady also call
Sharpton anti-Semitic if she knew the victims
were Jewish? Jackson and Sharpton claim
Republican policies dont help blacks. One promi-
nent, black, ex-congressman who would heartily
disagree is J.C. Watts, the Universitys 2003
Vickers Memorial speaker.
All I ask is for the peace-loving liberals to
prove that their parents taught them to be peace-
ful. If admittance is allowed to the sloppily
dressed again next year, theyll have their
chance.

Schiavo died Thursday in the swirl of a religious
debate. She was cremated Monday after 13 days of
starvation and dehydration when her husband
ordered her feeding tube be removed. Schiavo had
brain damage from a chemical imbalance some said
was caused by bulimia. The feeding tube had sus-
tained her in a vegetative state for about 15 years.
Conservatives, including President Geroge W.
Bush, who protested the stop-feeding order, said it
was the duty of the strong to protect the weak.
Because Schiavo didnt have a living will, her hus-
band and parents fought in court about whether
to remove the tube. It was removed and reinserted
twice before the courts ruled in favor of Michael
Schiavo, Terris husband. Her husband, however,
would know better than anyone whether she
would have wanted to continue living.
But could Schiavos experience be considered
life? She couldnt feed herself or communicate.
Doctors said she was in a permanent vegetative
state with no real chance of
gaining consciousness or
recovering at all. The New
York Times reported that
images of Schiavo that pro-
testers extrapolated from a
video gave a false impression
of how promising her condi-
tion was.
Her life was nothing more
than a blip on a computer screen. Conservatives
argued that it was not mans decision to decide
when to end a life. It was, however, mans decision
to prolong it in the first place. Maybe modern sci-
ence has gone too far.
An inoperable brain tumor caused Cochrans
death. Was that the doctors or Gods decision?
Protesters didnt stand outside of his hospital
picketing for surgery.
The pope suffered through his final weeks of
life. Parkinsons Disease, heart and kidney prob-
lems and a urinary tract infection plagued the
pope through his final hours. He couldnt even
speak during one of his final appearances on
Easter Sunday. Doctors should not have pro-
longed his suffering. His achievements should be
remembered, but it was his time to go.
If the Bible is correct, and God does control life
and death, then Schiavos passing was part of his
plan. Those who protested her death should real-
ize that if there is a heaven, she is in a better place.

Entertainment tonight
One night while at Abe and
Jakes Landing for a Pomeroy
concert, when her day job was
the farthest thing from her
mind, Rachel Peart ran into an
old high school friend. They
talked about bands, mutual
friends and other topics that
come up in a conversation held
over the top of loud music. The
two got around to talking about
SUA, which Pearts friend
praised for its appealing events
and student leadership. He
asked her how she was involved
with it.
Im the president this year,
said Peart, an Overland Park
junior.
Her friend was so excited, he
shook Pearts hand glad to
know the leader of one of his
favorite campus organizations.
For 66 years, Student Union
Activities has served the
University of Kansas, bringing
both large and small acts to cam-
pus.
In 1986, Kurt Vonnegut.
Famously, in 1992, Pearl Jam
shortly before Vs. was
released in 1993.
In 1993, Adam Sandler.
1996, both Johnny Cash and
Michael Moore.
2001, Jackass
2003, Gloria Steinem.
2004, Bill Cosby.
We cant bring five great
comedians and three great bands
to campus every year, but we try
to get fun acts, Peart said. Last
year, Mo Rocca was a fun exam-
ple of someone in the middle
range.
Outside the doors of the Lied
Center, where many of these
high-profile acts appeared,
SUA also programs regular
series events. Included in this
list are films at Woodruff
Auditorium, meditation at
Danforth Chapel, Tunes @
Noon outside the Union, Open
Forums on Wescoe Beach,
poetry slams at the Hawks Nest
and more.
All this programming, from
James Carville last year to
Oceans Twelve last week, is
done by students.
Everything we do is com-
pletely created and run by stu-
dents, said Kaitlin Connealy,
SUA director of public relations
and Leawood junior.
As a student-run organiza-
tion, SUA is sponsored by KU
Memorial Unions, a separate
organization from the
University. The organization
has faculty advisers employed
by the Unions, but students ini-
tiate programming ideas and
make the decisions. They
administer the events, some-
times finishing up at their
Union office until the late hours
of the night.
We all stay committed,
Peart said. We keep it so its not
like a job, but its fun. The SUA
office is cluttered with colorful
posters and props, attesting to
this claim.
SUA has about 30 committee
members who are involved in
the voting process, plus nine
board members. Of the board
members, three are executive
president, vice president and
director of public relations
and six are coordinators, who

Coming Soon!
As I sat on a barstool Monday night trying
to remove that hand print on my face that is
Roy Williams national championship, Bill
Self kept popping into my mind.
On March 24, The Kansas City Star ran an
article in which athletics director Lew Perkins
was quoted saying he received a handful of e-
mails demanding the firing of Self.
The same article said that Self received
around 150 letters that would sit unopened
until he returned from vacation. He
assumed the majority of those letters were
negative and he didnt want to read them so
soon.
Good fans would give him better. An
opening-round loss in a coachs second year
with the team is no cause for firing.
Especially in college basketball.
Here are five reasons why Im glad Kansas
has Self as its basketball coach.
No. 1 First and foremost, my school
and its prestigious basketball program
wasnt good enough for Roy, and the
school deserved better. Ive read many
articles this week about how much he
loved and still loves old Kansas. Thats
crap.
If he loved it, he wouldnt have said in
2001 that hed never consider leaving
again.
No. 2 Self is a better man than the pre-
vious basketball coach. Comparisons are
unfair to both men, I realize, but in this case
they are necessary.
Does anyone else remember watching
games in the fieldhouse and hearing the
crowd roar when Roy took off his jacket?
How lame for a man to perform rehearsed
antics on the sideline to try and arouse the
crowd.
Self is more real than that. He refrains
from using the doggones and gosh-dar-
nits in favor of more real lingo. I cant
count the number of times Ive been watch-
ing a game on TV and seen Self cover his
mouth and yell.
Im pretty sure those arent gosh-darns.
Thats more real than Roys good ol boy
front.
No. 3 Self is good enough for Larry
Brown.
The benevolent LB produced a national
championship in 1988 before he left for the
NBA. That makes him THE MAN.
Hes had success at all levels, and at many
different places. On Monday, he was docu-
mented as saying that Self is the right man
for Kansas. Hes a man that knows transi-
tional periods for programs as much as any-
one. He said to give Self time; you have to
trust LB.
No. 4 Recruiting.
Judging by the McDonalds All-American
game, Kansas is in good hands. I dont know
what the hell Roy was thinking before he
left, because after this senior class, he had
no one to turn to. Moulaye and the gang
would have proba-
bly been successful,
but he left next to
nothing compared
to what there is
now.
Self, on the other
hand, appears to be
able to sell a
ketchup popsicle to
a lady in white
gloves (Julian
Wright committed
after one in-house
visit). He has an
easier sell than that
because his popsicle is Kansas basketball
and Allen Fieldhouse.
No. 5 Last of all, the future national
championship.
In the recruiting Mario Chalmers, Self
told him that they would be in a Final Four
in Chalmers sophomore season. Lofty
expectations, but with the seasoning of the
current freshman and the incoming group,
the next four years should be fun.
Self, as you can see, is a better man. Hes
more real, regardless of the Xs and Os,
than Roy was. It turns out Roy is the oppo-
site of honest and left with no integrity.
Im confident Kansas will eventually get a
national championship.
I wont be around to see it, but Ill be glad
for Self. Those letters on his desk and all
those nay-sayers will, in time, be proven
wrong.

Self is a better coach
to lead the Jayhawks
Pitcher perfect
A perfect game at the perfect time.
The Kansas softball team defeated UMKC yes-
terday 8-0 at Arrocha Ballpark in six innings.
Junior pitcher and co-captain Serena Settlemier
pitched a perfect game as the Jayhawks found the
win column again after a six-game losing skid.
We had a lot of fun, and that is what winning is
all about, Settlemier said. This was a good game
to get out of the rut we were in. Were playing as a
team and thats what we need to do to win games.
Settlemier had seven strikeouts and moved to
8-5 on the season.
Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said the teams suc-
cess would start and end with pitching. She said
Settlemier threw crisp strikes with high velocity
and good command.
After losing six in a row, the victory is a major
step forward for the Jayhawks.
It is nice to feel good about ourselves, Bunge
said.
Bunge said the team did everything right yester-
day. Offensively, the Jayhawks got 11 hits, securing
their victory. Freshman outfielder Jackie Vasquez
came out strong and went 2-3 with 3 RBI.
Hitting is contagious on this team, Bunge
said. Heather Stanley continues doing a good job
the last couple of weeks in the leadoff position
getting things going early, she said.
Stanley, junior outfielder, led the team with
three hits yesterday.
Defensively, the team did not have an error,
helping Settlemier retire 18 straight. Junior catch-
er Ashley Goodrich had a solid game catching in
her first career start at catcher. Freshman catcher
Elle Pottorf, who caught every inning until she
went down with an injury to her lower leg on
Sunday against Texas A&M, is still out. Bunge
said Pottorf was still day-to-day.
Bunge said her team still had a long way to go
to climb back into the Big 12 Conference race.
If we can get things turned around, we are not
out of the mix, Bunge said.
Kansas had a tough draw to begin conference
play, competing against two of the elite teams in
the Big 12, Texas and Texas A&M.
The team will head to Stillwater, Okla., this
weekend to face Big 12 opponent Oklahoma
State Saturday and Sunday.

Shocking
rivalry resumes
Taking a slight break from Big 12 Conference games, Kansas (22-
12, 2-4) prepares to face in-state rival Wichita State University (23-
9, 1-2) in the first of four meetings this season.
Both teams enter tonights 7 p.m. contest at Hoglund Ballpark
following a series loss this weekend. After picking up the series
opener in extra innings against Texas A&M, Kansas could not keep
the momentum and dropped the next two games.
The Shockers struggled with extra innings against Missouri Valley
Conference opponent Evansville. Wichita State lost the first and third
games of the series, both in extra innings. The Shockers only victory
came in the second game of the series, 11-0.
I personally think its a huge midweek game. You put two of the
best programs in the Midwest and youve got an in-state rivalry
thats unparalleled in baseball, coach Ritch Price said.
After just one conference series this season, No. 21 Wichita State
has accumulated half of its total conference losses from 2004, when
the Shockers went 49-16 and 28-4 in the MVC.
This game marks the 56th meeting between the two clubs. The
series has been dominated by Wichita State, coached by Gene
Stephenson, who is in his 28th season.
Although Kansas split two games with Wichita State in 2004,
Wichita State holds a commanding 37-18 lifetime series lead.
The in-state rivalry is fueled by the usual passion for winning, but
as Kansas continues to improve, recruiting in-state players gets
increasingly tough.
Price says that both Matt and Ryan Baty and possibly Travis
Metcalf would have played for Wichita State if Kansas had not
taken big strides in its program.
If their offensive numbers arent as good as theyve been in the
past it may be because Nebraska became a national power and as
weve gotten better, weve hurt them, Price said.
Sophomore infielder Derek Schermerhorn leads Wichita State
with 31 RBI and a .339 batting average. He has hit safely in 25 con-
secutive games.
Senior catcher Joe Muich was another bright spot in the
Shockers loss on Sunday, when he hit his team-leading fourth
home run. The three-run shot gave Muich his 22nd RBI of the year.
Seniors Phil Napolitan, utility player, and Nick McCoola, short-
stop, continue to dominate at the plate for Wichita. Napolitan is
batting .353 with 13 RBI. McCoola, only a few points behind him
at .347, has 21 RBI on the season.
Left-hander Max Hutson (1-0) will take the mound against Kansas
this afternoon. Hutson has a 4.22 ERA in his 10.2 innings pitched.
You look at their numbers and theres no doubt that pitching is
the strength of their team, Price said.
The Jayhawks enter the contest hitting .305 as a team. Although
they were out-hit 43-24 in their last series against the Aggies, they still
bring seven starters hitting over .300 into tonights probable lineup.
Senior catcher Sean Richardson led the way against the Aggies
last weekend. He went 5-10 in the series and collected four RBI.
Richardson is batting .347 and has 24 RBI..
Jared Schweitzer, junior first baseman, was the hero in Kansas
last victory. Schweitzer hit a game winning two-run double in the
12th inning. He is hitting .314.
On the mound for the Jayhawks, junior closer Don Czyz (3-1)
continues to anchor the staff, who pitched relief for the weekends
only win.
Price announced that they will staff-pitch tonights game.
Sophomore left-hander Sean Land will throw the first two innings
followed by senior right-handed Clint Schambach (2-3).
Price then plans to use a list of freshman pitchers through the
games end.
Weve struggled in the Saturday game on the weekend. In order
to continue to improve as a program, weve got to develop our
young guys, Price said. Were trying to mask the problem.
All four games will be televised in the Kansas City and Wichita
areas. Lawrence, however, will not have the game broadcast.
Cox Cable will air the game in Wichita while Metro Sports will
show the game in Kansas City.
Its one of the few times you get to play a mid-week game in a
special. All four games are on TV and I dont think it could be any
better than that, Price said.

Golfer drives team to regionals
Sophomore golfer Amanda
Costner could have been a softball
player instead of a golfer, but during
her freshman year of high school,
she had to choose between the two.
My doctor actually told me that I
had to choose sports, Costner said.
Softball was kind of messing with
my golf swing, so I decided that I was
going to take golf seriously and I
wanted to play at a collegiate level.
During her second year on the
womens golf team, Costner has
proven to be the most consistent play-
er. This spring she is the only player
on the team who averages fewer than
80 strokes per round in tournament
play. She has posted the top Jayhawk
score in every tournament but last
weeks Mountain View Collegiate in
Tucson, Ariz.,
where she came in
second.
Part of Costners
success comes from
taking lessons from
golf instructor Tracy
Phillips whenever
she goes home.
Phillips also teaches
some LPGA play-
ers, Costner said.
Ive been working with him since
the beginning of last summer,
Costner said. He has almost com-
pletely changed my swing.
Coach Erin ONeil has also contrib-
uted to Costner becoming a better
player. In ONeils first season with the
team, she has already made an impact.
Coach ONeil is great, Costner
said. She is very competitive. She
wants to win, and she will do every-
thing she can to help us get better.
She is very knowledgeable about the
game and its mental aspects.
Being a former professional who
played on the Futures Tour gives
ONeil knowledge that team mem-
bers like Costner can use to improve
their games.
Costner dreams of playing profes-
sional golf someday, like ONeil did,
but for now she must concentrate on
the teams goal to reach regionals.
Right now were ranked 22nd and
they take 21 teams, Costner said. So
we are right on the bubble. I believe
we can make regionals if we do well
in the next two tournaments we play.
The Jayhawks are coming off of
their most important performance of
the season so far. At the Mountain
View Collegiate, Costner said the
team gained a lot of confidence.
We shot all three rounds under
300 for the first time all year, with a
lot of scores in the low 70s, Costner
said. Our freshmen did awesome.
Even if the Jayhawks do not make
regionals, Costner has two more
years of collegiate golf to look for-
ward to. Her goals include winning a
tournament individually and helping
the team win a tournament.
She decided to come to Kansas
over Tulsa, Oklahoma and Oral
Roberts. She said that since she was
little, she wanted to attend Tulsa.
I took my visit here and I really
felt like this was a place where God
wanted me to be, Costner said. I
liked all the girls here, and I knew
that it would be a good opportunity
for me to play in good tournaments
at a Division I school.
Costner said that now that it is the
end of her sophomore year, she
knows this is exactly where she is
supposed to be.

Ankiel looks to go to minors
unless team makes claim
HOUSTON Rick Ankiel was placed on
unconditional release waivers by the St. Louis
Cardinals, who are waiting to find out whether
he will be claimed by another team.
Ankiel, who was on the Cardinals opening-
day roster Sunday, was out of options. He has a
$400,000 salary, and the Cardinals have said they
hope to have him in their minor league system if
he is not claimed by another team.
He ended his pitching career last month
because of recurring wildness, then started
working out as an outfielder. The Cardinals
would like to send him to the minors to relearn a
position he hasnt played since high school.
Ankiel, 25, has a .207 career average in the
major leagues with two homers, a double, a
triple and nine RBIs in 87 at-bats. He impressed
as a designated hitter for the Cardinals rookie
league team in Johnson City, Tenn., hitting 10
homers in 2001.
NFL
Chiefs sign wide receiver,
defensive end from Titans
KANSAS CITY, Mo. The Kansas City Chiefs
acquired a wide receiver and a defensive end
from the Tennessee Titans yesterday, addressing
two pressing needs.
The Chiefs agreed to give the Titans an undis-
closed choice in this months NFL draft for defen-
sive end Carlos Hall, a restricted free agent.
The 6-foot-3, 259-pound Hall has made 31
starts in three years with Tennessee. In 2004, he
had 41 tackles, 2.5 sacks and recovered one fum-
ble. Shoring up the defense has been the top off-
season priority for the Chiefs, who have also
signed linebacker Kendrell Bell and safety
Sammy Knight.
He should become an important part of our
defensive end rotation, said Chiefs president
Carl Peterson. Carlos has been a very produc-
tive player in his brief three-year career and his
best football should be ahead of him.
Also yesterday, receiver Darrell Hill signed a
two-year contract with the Chiefs. The team did
not release any other terms of the deal. Hill, 6-3,
200 pounds, appeared in 14 games for the Titans
last season and ranked third on the team with 15
special teams tackles.
From cellar to stellar: Bears win it all
INDIANAPOLIS The Baylor
Bears simply wanted to be a shining
light for a university that needed
something to applaud. One dazzling
national championship ought to do.
Sophia Youngs 26 points, Emily
Niemanns precise 3-point shooting
and the brilliant, energetic play of
Baylors backcourt carried Baylor to
an 84-62 victory over Michigan State
last night for the schools first NCAA
title by a womens team.
And what a title run it was. Five
years after coach Kim Mulkey-
Robertson took over a team that
went 7-20 and was at the bottom of
the Big 12, the Bears now sit at the
top of their sport after winning a
game between two teams playing in
the finals for the first time.
What a team I get to coach!
Mulkey-Robertson said. It wasnt
the coaching, its these guys taking
me for a tremendous ride.
It was the second-largest margin
of victory in a championship game,
falling one point short of the record
set in 1987 when Tennessee beat
Louisiana Tech 67-44.
When the horn sounded Tuesday
night, the Bears flopped on the floor
in delirious celebration as a rainbow
of neon-colored confetti sprayed all
around the RCA Dome. They
jumped in unison, donned champi-
onship caps and fans chanted Mul-
key! Mul-key! while the players
swarmed their elated coach.
They won with unforgiving
defense that disrupted almost every-
thing Michigan State tried, and by
poking enough holes in the
Spartans matchup zone to stay
comfortably ahead after zooming to
a 19-point lead in the first half.
Niemann keyed the early surge and
finished the first half with 15 points
on 5-of-7 shooting from behind the
3-point line; she finished with 19.
I think (Niemann) was the whole
key to this game, Michigan State
coach Joanne P. McCallie said. If you
take 51 off the floor, it was a different
game. She was definitely the X-factor.
Not that the Bears were resting
easy after that. Knowing that
Michigan State had rallied from 16
down to beat Tennessee two nights
before, Baylor kept attacking, making
steals and scrambling for loose balls.
Their killer instinct was a perfect
reflection of their feisty coach, who
practically glowed in a bold aqua-blue
pant suit as she stormed back and
forth in front of the bench, calling
plays, pleading for calls from the offi-
cials and cajoling her players to keep
pressing even with a 20-point lead.
They responded.
Young was unstop-
pable in the second half, scoring 18
points. The junior, who came to the
United States from the West Indies at
age 15 and had never played basket-
ball before that, was named the most
outstanding player of the Final Four.

Todays Birthday. Youre usually too
busy to spend much time in peace-
ful contemplation. This year, how-
ever, that will be the most valuable
time of all. Ask questions that don't,
at first, appear to have logical
answers.
Aries (March 21-April 19) Today is a
6. Its not a good day to travel.
Therell be too many complications.
Youll have enough on your mind if
you hide out and go through your
lists, instead.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) Today is a
7. Confer with a person whos got
the technical expertise you lack. You
may be planning to spend more
than necessary, and youd hate that.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) Today is a
7. Be alert, and try to see things
from many points of view. You can
act as translator and mediator for
people who cant get along.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) Today is a
6. The answer to your question may
be found the next county over. Dont
go there; you cant afford to take the
time. Do make inquiries.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Today is a 7.
Youd like to give a loved one some-
thing special, but the odds are high
youll pick an item thats not quite
right in some way. Best to take the
recipient along when you go shop-
ping.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Today is a
6. The situation at home may be
tumultuous, at least for a while.
Thats because its a work in
progress. Dont be too critical; just
keep putting in the corrections.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Today is a 6.
Creative ideas are difficult to con-
trol. They seem to come when they
want, not when you want them to.
You can put yourself in a likely place
for that to happen however, and
open up.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Today is a
7 . Youd like to buy your loved ones
the sun and moon and stars.
Miniatures are a better idea, or offer
a rain check. Youre a little short on
cash.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today
is a 6. You dont have much patience
with whiners, and youll be even
more disgusted if the person com-
plaining is you. Let loved ones talk
you out of a stinky mood.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Today is
a 6. Youre about to drop a precon-
ceived notion. It got you this far, but
now its time to let it go. Youve
learned enough to start moving up
to the next level.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Today is
a 7. Theres instability around your
financial situation now. Its not a
good time to buy, sell, loan money
or start a new job. Take care.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Today is a
6. Some of the ideas you come up
with seem almost bizarre to others.
Thats partially because you have
trouble explaining a complicated
concept. Wait until you can show
them.

Some put aside
ill will for Roy
Theres still a picture of Roy
Williams on the wall at the
Downtown Barber Shop. Its
just that it now hangs in the
bathroom.
The painting moved the day
Williams left Kansas, the pro-
gram he swore would be his
home forever, for his alma mater
at North Carolina.
But owner Mike Amyx, and
more than a few other die-hard
Williams bashers, conceded a
grudging admiration yesterday
for ol Roy, who finally won his
first national title Monday night.
Its just that well, dadgummit,
Jayhawk fans thought Williams
would bring that title home to
this storied college hoops town.
People think we hate Roy,
Amyx said. But were jealous
hes with another team. We kind
of wish he was back.
Williams spent 15 seasons at
Kansas, leading the Jayhawks to
418 victories and two national
title games. He turned down the
Tar Heels when they came call-
ing in 2000, promising to be a
Jayhawk forever.
Three years later, he was gone.
His success with the Tar Heels
reopened old wounds for fans
who felt Williams insulted
Kansas by making a move to
North Carolina, especially since
it came just days after the
Jayhawks had played for a
national title.
Williams popularity made his
departure harder to take, said
Rose Hermann, who manages
the universitys Office of
Olympic Sports.
It wasnt about basketball. It
was about losing a really good
human being, Hermann said.
And I think thats how we all felt
about it, if wed be really honest.
Stuck in the middle is Bill Self,
the Jayhawks coach who left
Illinois to take over for Williams.
But the talk of Williams suc-
cess didnt bother him, Self
said. Nor, he said, was he sorry
that he hadnt stayed at
Illinois.
If I werent happy here, I
might say I had mixed emotions
about the game, he said. But
Im very happy here.
