Scott: Only 3 Activities
Are Not Self-Financing
Out of a maze of 175 cam-
Eus t u d e n t organizations,
andling thousands of dollars
per year, only three must de
pend on outside financial help.
With the exceptions of the
Nebraska Union, the Dally
Nebraskan and ASUN, all
campus organizations are
self-supporting, according to
Robert Scott, coordinator of
student activities.
The Union and the Daily
Nebraskan, Scott said, re
ceive funds from student fees
included in the tuition assess
ment. The following is the actual
breakdown of the student fee
payment, according to C a r 1

Lincoln's Job Corps
'Best In Tlie Nation
Calling upon University stu
dents and Lincoln townspeople
to develop person-to-person
contacts with job corpsmen,
J. Alan Hansen termed "so
cial adjustment" a major
problem of trainees.
Speaking to the United Cam
pus Christian Fellowship Sun
day night, the Deputy Direc
tor of the Lincoln Job Corps
Center said that most incom
ing corpsmen had already de
veloped habit patterns that
are "strictly bad news".
"We're going to have drunk-and-disorderlies,
minors in
possession and fights, the
same as the University,' 'Han
sen said. "However, statistics
show us to have 40 per cent
less than in the same age
group across the nation."
Thj rtmi? T.invdn ont ai- la
called "the best in the nation,'
Hansen said. "This may be
l because we dont have any
corpsmen yet."
He said that of the things
corpsmen are taught, social
behavior is the most difficult.
He added that it was impor
tant for the corpsmen to ming
le with ordinary people of the
IfSH.

said.
The student fee assessment,
Yost said, is made on the bas
is of study and research by
an ad hoc committee, estab
lished specifically for this
purpose.
A fee hike, Yost said, would
"ultimately be approved by
the Board of Regents."
Changing student fees, Yost
emphasized, would "entail a
great deal of study."
"For instance," he said, "if
we were going to change stu
dent fees next September, we
would have to start studying
the situation right now."
Yost commented, "After
two years we may find It nec
essary to raise student fees

Hansen said that their lives
upon entering the center are
"down the tube" and "out of

Hansen credited mistakes of
the program to the early prob
lems of starting a completely
new program. He added that
the news media are often
watching the centers for the
"negative news that attracts
the public.
The Lincoln center will
teach trainees culinary skills,
factory skills, vehicle-associated
skills, and light indus
trial skills, as well as future
plans for training in the main
tenance of buildings and
grounds and heating and air
conditioning.
Hansen termed the Lincoln
community response to the
new center "so good" that it
was "almost embarassing" to
live up to.
Northern Natural Gas Com
pany has been working with
the University to plan for and
staff the new center. Hansen
said that the totally new con
cepts begun here have been
copied across the nation.
Among the new concepts is
the "campus" idea, in which
students taking similar train
ing live together. A "lattice"
method of teaching gives in
struction in plateaus of learn
ing. The center plans to instruct
in job skills, general educa
tional background, medical
and dental conditioning and
the difficult social adjustment
mat Hansen mentioned.
Trainees will come from the
Lincoln and Omaha areas as
well as the ghetto areas across
tne nation.

fice plans to convert a campus
area to student recreation by
building facilities on a strip
of unused land.
According to Cather Hall
Residence Director James
Pequett, the area is north of
the Area One parking lot
beside Cather.
Pequett said that plans call
for three basketball goals,
poles for volleyball or bad

ice skating pond.
Money for the project has
been allocated, and Housing
hopes, for partial completion
by ice skating season, Pequett
said.
The area would be for the
use of the entire campus. Pe
quett said that athletic equip
ment would have to be indi
vidually supplied.
Nothing has been worked out
yet for priority use, he said,
but the living units in the im
mediate vicinity would prob
ably be making most use of
the facilities.
The three basketball goals
will be half-court size due to
space limitations. The poles
may be used for volleyball or
badminton nets.
Pequett said that the type
of recreation at any given
time would probably be on a

Retaining walls will sur

blacktopped. The area can
then be flooded for ice skat

will be added for the skaters.
Pequett added that horse
shoe pits will be alongside the
proposed area.

Meierhenry Edits
Education Book
Dr. W. C. Meierhenry, as
sistant dean of Teachers Col
lege, has edited a new book
dealing with the concept of
innovation in the field of edu
cation. "Media and Educational In
novation" is a collection of
"authoritative papers on in
novation by an interdisciplin
ary team" stemming from a
1963 symposium held at the
University and headed by Dr.
Meierhenry. The book is one
of the first which examines
models and innovations from
other subject areas and re
lates them to education.
Dr. Meierhenry wrote the
introduction and concluding
chapter, in addition to editing
the book. In the final chapter,
he draws from the other ar
ticles to project a model of
innovation procedures in edu
cation. Dr. Meierhenry noted that
the book deals primarily with
bringing about changes in
education through a diffusion
of new practices. It was pub

Med-School Budget
Among 9 Midwest
Bv Julie Morris
Senior Staff Writer
Burdened with "antiquated
laboratories and teaching fa
cilities," the University Col
lege of Medicine has asked
for a $6.3 million increase in
funds to put the school back
on its feet.
The college's biennium bud
get request was included In
the general University re
quest of over $67 million that
was sent to the Department
of Administrative Services,
the state Legislature's budget
arm, last Thursday.
In presenting the request of
$16,324,525, Dr. Cecil Wittson,
Dean of the college in Omaha,
stated that the college had
been operating on a budget
that was less than half this
amount and which he con
tended is inadequate for ex
panding enrollments and new
programs.
'Lowest Budget'
Wittson pointed out that
Nebraska's med college had
the "lowest" regular operat
ing budget among nine
state university medical
schools in the Midwest" for
the past two years.
The schools included were
Colorado. Kansas, Iowa Mis
souri, Minnesota, Wisconsin,
Michigan and Illinois.
"Our regular operating bud
get was just about half the
size of the second lowest bud
get among these nine
schools," Wittson said.
The proposed budget re
quest for the medical college
would still leave the Univer
sity's department "b e 1 o w
the national budget average
of all medical schools in 1963
64," Wittson said.
Wittson noted that the
medical college has "n o w
embarked on a major build
ing program, long overdue."

Due to the program, Witt
son said, "In two years we
will have the hospital and the
clinics, the sophisticated lab
oratories and the teaching
areas required of a modern
medical center."

in turn, permit the medical

Chancellor
Points Out
'Pressures'
Noting six specific "pres
sure points" in adjusting
class loads this fall, Chancel
lor Clifford Hardin com
mented that most students
have been "taken care of in
pretty good shape."
Hardin said last week that
"cutting and fitting" of class
loads is presently being done.
He pointed out the depart
ments of pre-medicine, pre
dentistry, languages, mathe
matics, English and physics
as those under great pressure
because of too large enroll
ments and teacher shortages.
While the academic situa
tion is "not ideal," Hardin
said that the University has
been "able to take care of all
the students who registered."
"I thing it should be evident
we are short of instructors,
but we were shorter last
year," Hardin said.

"This compares to the 55

dents than we do," Wittson
commented.

With the aid of Increased
budget funds and new build

of Medicine will be able to
enter 20 more freshmen
med students in 1969 than can
enter now, and possibly dou
