opening A DIFFERENT EXPERIENCE. THINGS WERE different on the surface, and different underneath. It seemed something unusual ha ened d u ri n g virtually every day of the 1991-92 lllllli E school year. STUDENTS RETURNED lN'AUGUST TO FIND HOCH Auditorium a blackened shell of its former self, a victim of a lightning bolt from a June thunderstorm. Student Senate voted to expel Darren Fulcher, student body president, from office when his ability to effectively lead the KU student body was brought into question. lt was revealed that Fulcher agreed to a diversion settlement the previous semester for the criminal battery of his ex-girlfriend, Audra Glavas. The ensuing uproar brought the Cable News Net- work and the New York Times to KU for the story. Heated protests, petitions, news conferences and public meetings followed, with strong vocal support for both Fulcher and Senate. The debate often centered on racism. with some students charg- ing that Senate was racially motivated in their vote to oust Fulcher, a black, from office. continued on page 5 JOCELYN KAY STAHL, Lawrence graduate student, performs during the University Theatre Series production of Side by Side by Sondheim. iPhoto by Stephen Pingtjvj MATT PAYNE, TOPEKA freshman, bangs on his drum while cheering on the football team late in the Homecoming game against Iowa State.
