ASUN senators reinforce support
for mid-term student grade reports
By Jann Nyffeler
Daily Neferafcn SUff Writer
The Association of Students of
the University of Nebraska rein
forced its support of mid-semester
grade reports Wednesday
night.
. Earlier this month, the ASUN
Senate voted to recommend con
tinuation of the voluntary pro
gram, but decided that they need
ed more information on it before
making recommendations to
UNL's Faculty Senate.
Academics Committee Chair
man and Sen. Ken Bukowski re
ported that grade rosters are
hand-delivered to academic de
partments during the sixth week
of classes. Instructors have six
days to record students' grades
and return the rosters. On or
about Oct. 11, grade reports are
issued. Grade reports are sent
out then because students cant
drop a class after the eighth week
without instructor approval,
Bukowski said.
Part of the information the
senate gathered came from a 20
page report of a questionnaire
completed by 455 UNL students
and another survey completed by
419 UNL administrators and
faculty members.
The surveys, conducted in faH
1982 by an ad hoc committee of
Mid-Term Scholastic Progress
Reports, indicated that students
wanted instructors to continue
issuing reports.
If the Faculty Senate votes to
eliminate mid-semester reports,
the measure will likely be per
manent. Bukowski said.
ASUs recommendations to the
Faculty Senate include:
issuing grade rosters twice
during the semester, shewing
students' grades at that time by
using their social security num
bers and posting the roster near
the instuctor's office
sending reports to all stu
dents with D3 or Fs in a course
and requiring a studentinstruc
tor conference
creating a grade report form
that instructors could send dir
ectly to students any time, elimi
nating the admissions and advis
ing channel
ASUN suggests that these
proposals be mandatory for alll
professors and courses.
ex roles difficult to balance!

While some people change their
sex role attitudes, others revert
to traditional male-female stereo
types in today's society.
This was one issue discussed
yesterday at the Wellness Week
program, "Masculine, Feminine or
Androgynous: Current Sex Roles
in Society."
UNL assistant psychology pro
fessor Natalie Porter and Dr. Jim
Pipher led the discussion with a
question "What are the easiest
and hardest things about being a
man or woman in 1984?"
Porter and Pipher separated
the 46 people in the room into
all-men and all-women discussion
groups. About 15 minutes later,
everyone got back together to
compare answers.
One group of women discussed
balancing a job or career. Some
men said it was hard to know
how to act in certain situations.
Such as whether or not to open a
door for a woman at the risk of
offending her.
Porter said people were more,
androgynous 15 years ago than
they are now.
Porter said one of the hardest
things to balance is the conflict

between a marriage and career. j
Another group of men talked
about how to be sensitive and still
be considered "male." I
In terms of specific sex rolesj
most of the group agreed that it
was easier to conform to a group
norm than to be an individual, j
Porter said the idea that women
may be able to get a job easier;
today is misleading. Women may
get jobs, but they dont necessar-j
ily move up in a company or
organization. !
Pipher said th at to avoid seeing
people in traditional sex roles,1
people should not be complacent
and not accept things the way
they are. He said it is easy to think
you're a liberal person and ther
fall back on stereotypes. Pipher
said a good way of coping is tc
avoid typecasting people. People
need to be freer to express feel
ings and emotions, they said.
Lincoln police;
proud of staff)
training class!
By Mike Georgs
Daily Nehr&skan Staff Writer
"We take pride that the Lincoln
Police Department has the best"
professional staff in the land,"!
said Dean Leitner, chief of the:
Lincoln Police Department, to mem-f
bers of the Lincoln Chamber of
Commerce Wednesday.
Are you willing to gamble that you won't have any medical bills during
the remaining school year?
Why not buy Student Health Insurance and decrease your odds for
financial disaster to illness or accident?
After October 1. 1934 all enrollments are FINAL! Visit the Student
Health Insurance Office, Room 103 at the Health Center by Monday,
October 1st. A Student Insurance Representative is available to answer

Since 1057, Leitner told the;
Chamber the police force has,
changed from requiring a ne-f
week training course and a highj;
school diploma to requiring enroll
ment in a 9-month training pro
gram and recommending some
form of higher education. Leitner
said 70 percent of the officers on
the force have a degree. There are
296 LPD employees, 227 of which
are commissioned officers.
Leitner also said women and
ethnic groups are now filling more
' positions at the department. Ac
cording to Leitner, 22 women
and 12 blacks are now on the
force. He said the possibilities for
advancement are unlimited,
Leitner said one of his main
objectives is for the police depart
ment to continue to help people
protect themselves against crime.
"If we do not receive help from
the people, the police force alone
will be defeated by the criminal
element," Leitner said.
Leitner said his major concern
is the problem of youth and nar
cotics. To combat this, the LPD
has set up the narcotics unit.
Although it's existed for less than
three years, there have been 2,497
cases involving narcotics. Of these,
5S0 cases resulted in arrests and
more than $1.6 million in illegal
substances has been confiscated.
