University of Kansas officials are looking for donors to complete a 10-year, $22 million facelift for the University of Kansas.

The Landscape Master Plan, which was designed in April 2000 by Jeffrey L. Bruce and Company, involves adding five new gates as entrances to the University.

The Malott Gate was the first installment of the plan and was completed during the summer of 2002. Bob Malott, son of the late University Chancellor Deane W. Malott, and his wife Elizabeth donated $1 million.

The Malott gateway, at Bob Billings Parkway and Iowa Street, cost $800,000 to build.

Other gates are planned for 19th Street and Naismith Drive; 11th and Mississippi streets; 13th Street and Oread Avenue and 17th and Indiana streets.

The 13th Street and Oread Avenue gateway has not been designed yet, although it could contain a fountain or a circle in the street. Warren Corman, University architect, said the design could depend on the donor.

He said funding for the project comes from private donors.

However, the Endowment Association hasn’t received other donations for the project.

“People liked the plan, but nobody’s really stepped up,” Corman said.

Beautifying the campus has been one of Chancellor Robert Hemenway’s main goals, Corman said.

An aesthetically pleasing campus could help the University recruit more students, Corman said.

April Diederich, Walmego sophomore, said the gateways are good-looking, but that the cost seems excessive.

“I think there are other things that much money could be spent on,” she said. “Five of them seem like a lot.”

Endowment Association officials are looking for donors like the Malotts who had an interest in making the campus look better, John Scarffe, director of communications for the Endowment Association said.

Scarffe said the difficulty of finding donors for the remaining gateways was that most alumni want to donate to their specific professional school.

“A person who graduated from the business school, for example, has a loyalty to that school and would most likely fund a professorship for that school,” he said.

Other Master Plan improvements include new shrubs and trees, improvements to the Chi Omega fountain and a new plan for Jayhawk Blvd.
