To help UNL advisers become more effective in career
counseling, a Career Resource Hsndbook is being devel
oped, according to Janet Krause, a counselor for the UNL
Counseling Center and chairperson of the Career Action
Ctanmission (CAC).
The handbook, being developed by the commission,
will identify all career possibilities in a given major and
draw attention to career-related activities, she said.
CAC is an 18-member commission comprised of com
munity businessmen, UNL faculty members, students and
administrators, to was started in November 1974 to de
velop, encourage and support career services and programs
for UNL students.
Krause said she hopes the handbooks will be distribu
ted to UNL advisers by .May. Only 1,000 copies will be
printed and students wO be able to refer to their advisers
handbooks, she said.
According to Jim Strand, a commission member and
systems supervisor -for the Lincoln Telephone and Tele
graph Co., the handbook wO contain details of career re
sources 'Mown to statements about student
organizations. -
Students often are unprepared when they attend job
interviews, or do not consider job opportunities until they
start looking for employment when it is too late, he said.
CAC's handbook should inform students about classes
and activities that could help them select a major and get
a job, Strand said. A "how to" section wi3 be included in
the freshman, handbook, which rnht start freshmen
said, CBA faces a Jong-rane problem of keeping quality
faculty members beeassse of Joisr piy.
CBA lest 10 per cent of its faculty members last year
to other institutions, Smith sail. In a letter last week to
NU systems and UNL administrators, he cited new
AACS3 figures which show CBA full professors salaries
are $2 JOQO below the national average.
The instructors who left last year went to institutions '
Eke the Universities of Tulsa, Florida, Missouri, Minnesota
and Northern Elincis University, Smith said.
"If we were losing people to Harvard, Stanford, ISichi
gsn or Chicago, we would understand, Smith said. "I
think we're in trouble if we can't compete with the less
reputable colleges.
The word's getting out," he said, that there are
fcod, movable faculty members at UNL and the cur-
rent situation may snowball, he said.
Although he sail Cereuter's amendment is a big step in
the right direction, 1t won't solve all our problems.
Eventually, CBA needs almost $325 XX) to accommodate
all students and maintain accreditation, he said.
Smith sail CBA is not being wasteful of its current
budget. Nearly 98 per cent goes to salaries, while 22 per
cent is spent on telephone service, duplicating, supplies,
travel and capital expenditures, statistics show.
CBA must submit a self-study report in fall 1977,
which wEI be followed by a 1978 visit by AACS3, which
then will decide whether to maintain CBA's accreditation.
NU lobbyist and Corporate Secretary TV'iHiam Swanson
said he has not brought Smith's letter to the attention of
Appropriations Committee members, but said he is 'Sure
we will be mentioning it.1

gree, he added.
Ken Bader, UNL vice-chancellor for student affairs,
said he strongly supported the handbook's development.
Bader said he was informed last week that the $800

Campus police
eye conference
Police administrators and officers from 15 uni
. versities will meet April 4 through 6 at Iowa State
University to discuss problems and new techniques
in campus law enforcement.
Five UNL administrators and three patrol offi
cers will attend the conference, which will cover all
areas of campus security, Campus Police Chief Gail
Gade said.
The agenda includes parking and traffic manage
ment, crime prevention and community relations,
and personnel management and training.
The conference is "unique" because it includes
officers as well as persons in management, Gade
said. Most conferences include only administrators,
who "return to their jobs and never share the ideas
with the officers.
Gade said he hopes the conference will become
annual.
