Flanory said deciding to
buy the house next door, the
Lonox Manner, was one such
loaming experience.
"It illuminates how much
in control we are," Flanory
said. "It is as If it's our own
homo, but wo have a lot of
money to work with.
"Having about a million in
assets to work with is quite
an educational experience."
To help oversee financial
matters and business policy,
a board of directors is voted
in by members from the
Campbell Club and its two
sister-houses, Lonox Manner
and Janet Smith.
The 12 person group com
prises the non-profit organ!
/.ation. the Student Coopera
tive Association.
Flanory said it is this con
trol over policy that separates
the Campbell Club from fra
ternities and sororities.
"You get to live with other
people without having to
obey the typical parental au
thority you get from the
dorms with the KA's, or the
rules at tho fraternity," Flan
cry suid.
"We own it We can do
whatever we want, and the
rules vve create " he said.
Flancry said their fee is
also cheaper than the dorms
at SI,142 for u bedroom or
SB56 to share a room per
term
And the house is coed.
"Living with poople of the
opposite sex is so indescrib
ably different." I’lanery said
"Men and women have dif
ferent energy, and wo try to
maintain a balance."
The house also bucks the
traditional image of co-op liv
ing us all Birkenstocks and
incense.
"It’s not just for hippies
anymore." I-Tunery said
"You can walk around the
house and see plenty of peo
ple who don't have beards,
like I do."

"If those women protesters
took the lime to come In and
see what Is actuallv going on in
there with an open mind in

Jim Hanson, owner of Jiggles
and landlord of the new Juice
bar. said Lollipops does not
promote immoral behavior la>
cause patron-dancer contact is
prohibited.
"This is good, clean fun and
is not to la* taken as a sex show
It is,'|ust entertainment.'' he
said
Hansen said the bar will most
likely draw Its clientele from
businessmen over the age of 2 1
in addition to entertainment,
the dancers believe they are
helping society in other ways
"We really do promote safe

CRIME
Continued from Page 8D
In fuel, only one rape was re
ported on campus for all of last
year. Botwoon 1988 and 1992,
there have been two reported
rapes on campus.
Howover. Information pro
vided by tho University's unof
ficial suxual assault forms,
which are available at tho OPS
office, tell a different story. Ac
cording tho forms, since 1988
there have been 28 rapes.
Drayton said OPS works
closely with other offices on
campus, including the Dean of
Students, the counseling cen
ter, tho Student Health Center
and Sexual Assault Support
Services to create a more com
fortable environment for vic
tims of sexual oflenses.
Both Collins and Drayton
said much of the problem is the
result of combining alcohol and
poor judgment. One of the pri
mary reasons many of these
rapes go unroported is that the
victim was so intoxicated, she
cannot remember where she
was, who she was with or what
exactly happened, Collins said.
Drayton recommends stu
dents attending parties in unfa
miliar placos go with a friend
they can trust to look out for
them, and vico-versu.
Students, stun anil lacuuy
who find themselves in the po
sition of victim, can seek assis
tance from OPS. Drayton said
ho hopes students will grow to
trust his office to assist them
with problems of a criminal or
safety related nature.
"When somebody stops on
your shoos, wo come in and
mediate," Drayton said.
OPS works closely with the
EPD to provide protection to
University students both on
and off campus.
Sgt. Dennis Baker of the EPD
works on campus as a liaison
between the two offices and
works with Drayton to improve
the perception of law enforce
ment officers with students.
Officer Jenna Knight said the
University area is "a tough
place to work. The attitude is
just different."
Police often experience un
provoked harassment from stu
dents and are typically met
with more hostility than else
where in tho community. Sim
ply walking up to a loud party
can result In hollies being
thrown at the approaching offi
cers, Knight said.
In on effort to improve the
perception of OPS and KPD of
ficers. Drayton has instituted a
policy of having officers meet,
greet and mingle with students
in non-enforcement roles. This,
hu hopes, will demonstrate that
OPS officers are people just like
everyone else and that their
role is not one of persecution,
but protection.
OPS is sometimes accused of
harassing students who may
look or act differently. But
Drayton said the problem is
one of students not understand
ing tho variety of people that
can bo found at tho University.
"Our officers are used to see
ing people with purple hair."
Drayton said. But many stu
dents have never mot anyone
with purple hair.
"When they see what they
consider to be suspicious or un
usual activity, they call us,"
Drayton said, "and it is our Job
to Investigate tho matter."
Drayton would like to see
students take the time to got to
know cm h other and their vari
ous cultures. That could pre
vent many of the misunder
standings that often result from
OPS intervention
Many conflicts with OPS
could he avoided if students
look the time to familiarize
themselves with both Universi
ty and city regulations, Drayton
said.
keep teenagers off the streets
and out of trouble
"It does not propagate vio
lence either," Wild Thing said.
"I've boon in this buslnees for
four year* and 1 have never
boon sexually attacked. I enjoy
dancing and I figure why go out
to a bar and spend money
when I can come here and
make money to dance."
Jim Jensen, owner of Good
Times Bar and former owner of
u topless bar, came to watch the
protest out of curiosity
“I think the protesters are
drawing more attention, which
is gtKid for business," Jensen
said
"1 figure, if kids are adult
enough to go to war and buy
Playboy magazines at 18, they
are old enough to live and act
on their own," he said
