Chancellor Discusses Plans
Before Rotary Club
Monday.
Establishment by school officials
of a "foundation which will receive
money and administer it" is
planned, Chancellor E. A- Burnett
told Rotary club members in a
speech Monday. .
According to the suggestion
outlined by the Chancellor tuad
Prof. Robert P. Crawford legisla
tive appropriations which amount
only to "bread and butter" would
be supplemented by gifts to the
school from wealthy men of this
and other states.
Difficulties of administrative of
ficials in making the university
"distinctive" were explained. The
legislature, Burnett stated, will
sufficient money to
hire a "town man," but fails to
make necessary allowances "wnen
ire have ta cn out into the market
for teachers whose salary demands
necessarily rise high."
Gifts to other American eauca
tlnnal institutions in the past few
years were cited by Professor
Crawford, who remarked that it
"seems that the University of Ne
braska is hardly getting its share."
An alumni lovaltv fund, he sug
gested, might stimulate donations,
the lack oi wnicn. nas wxu
"largely a matter of neglect."
