It gives a homemaker the
right to her husband's pension
benefits if the husband dies before
retirement. Before passage of the
bill, women whose husbands died
before they retired received no
pension benefits, regardless of
the length of the deceased spouse's
service.
Any employee who leaves a
business for less than five years is
entitled to received earned benef
its. Previously, women who took
time oft work to bear and raise
children lost any earned pension
benefits and would have to start
over in accruing benefits. This
provision of the bill allows women
to take needed time off to raise
their children and still allows
them to return to their job with
out being penalized for taking
time off. This provision also would
apply to husbands wishing to
take paternity leave.
Pensions are considered joint
property and can be divided in a
divorce settlement. Up until now
the pension was not considered
as such and so belonged solely to
the worker.
In the past, the spouse-worker
(usually a man), had the individ
ual decision whether pension co
verage should be shared with the
spouse. Under the act, the pen
sion belongs to both spouses unless
both agree to waive the spouse's
right
The act lowers the age at
which a worker may begin to par
ticipate in a pension plan from 25
to 21 years, and also reduces
from age 22 to 18 the period at
which the 10-year vesting period
begins. The vesting period is the
minimum time an employee must
work, before he is able to receive
pension benefits. Vice-president
candidate Gerldine Ferraro spon
sored the House version of the
act. According to a press release
received by the commission, Fer
raro said the legislation is "a msjor
step toward true economic equity
for women working both inside
and outside the heme."
Nebraska Sen. J. James Exon
co-sponsored and supported the
act in the Senate.
This legislation is long past
due and brings private pension
plans that are regulated by the
federal government, into the
1 080s," Exon said in a press rele
received from his office. This
legislation is not a cure-all, but it
does correct many disparities of
the existing law and brings pri
vate pensions more into line with
the needs of today's workers."

Although the halls are full, no
students have been placed in the
barrack rooms in the Abel base
ment, Zatechka said. The rooms
house 20 students each. One room
was prepared this year, but re
mains empty.
Abel North Residence Director
Bill Welsh -said that although his
hall is full, he does not know the
exact number of students yet.
There are no empty rooms and
stragglers still are coming in, he
said.
Unless space is available, single
room requests no longer will be
accepted, Zatechka said. Gradu
ate, handicapped and 65 pre
registered students are guaran
teed single rooms, he said. Selleck
Quadrangle houses graduate and
handicapped students, while sin
gle rooms for undergraduates are
scattered in the complex. As of
Aug. 15, about 152 students are
assigned for single rooms, he said.
Zatechka cited several reasons
for the popularity of residence
halls.
The cost of residence halls is a
major factor, he said. Prepared
meals, telephone, utility and linen
service are provided at low cost,
he said. Students enjoy the chance
to meet other students to grow
culturally and academically, he
said. And the campus and major
businesses are within walking
distance, he said.
UNL's residence halls have
grown in popularity compared to
halls in other . Big Eight schools,
he said. Major refurnishings and
renovations in the halls have at
tracted many students, he said.
