Time Will Tell . . .
New members of the recently inngurated NIA council, the
controlling organ of unaffiliated students, met recently and
adopted a very commendable program for the year. As the
reporter who covered this story stated, the success of this
organization depends on their active activities other than
politics.
For several years, the barb groups on this campus have
set up programs which in each of their phases would make
the fraternity and sorority programs covering the same items
look sick. Their intra-mural program had excellent possibilities
as one of the outstanding activities among unaffiliated students
on the campus. They outlined fine social programs, well
rounded policies for improving student housing and working
conditions on, the campus, and many other worthwhile ac
tivities which the group should have been able to carry out
successfully.
i
There was always a fly in the pie, however, since the
so-called heads of the barb groups used those groups as
political instruments, not to further their own ends par
ticularly, but to satisfy their selfish, personal political lusts.
Those carefully outlined programs became mere sham when
time for the student elections rolled around. Whether the
unaffiliated students won or lost the election, those programs,
which in effect were excellent, soon became nothing but the
past.
Politics, as such, must take a back seat this year at the
University of Nebraska. With constructive programs, both
war and campus betterment, challenging us at every turn, we
must roll . up our sleeves, pitch into the work to be done and
let future students take care of politics.

man and one woman represent
ative. Two students are also
elected at large. Any member
of a district is eligible to run for
the NIA Council, regardless of
class, college or average.
At the present time the district
system is well set-up, with one
person in charge of each section
under the council itself. A record
of all unaffiliated students is kept
in the barb office. It looks like it
should work, but that in turn de
pends on the leaders and "ordi
nary" barbs.
If you want to be a political boss,
go to Nebraska, someone once
said. Each year a new crop of
socially minded students take over
the work and leadership of the
barb organizations, altho a few,
like Art Hendrickson, Bob Sim
mons, and Blaine Sloan stayed on
for several years. This year is
definitely not an exception. '
Some Return.
A few familiar faces are back.

assembly, to which all barbs are
Campus of Future Reflects New Trends
As Regents Approve Smith's Proposal
While world leaders today are
planning for a bigger and better
world after the war, UN officials
are preparing for a bigger and
better university after the present
conflict is over.
After extensive studies by Pro
fessor L. B. Smith of the depart
ment of architecture, the campus
of the future, which is the next
thing to "Utopia," has been laid
out and approved by the Board of
Regents as a model for the loca
tion of all new buildings.
Plan Is Tentative.
Of course this plan is only ten
tative as no one is doing too much
planning these days. At the pres
ent time there is no construction.
Availability of funds will also play
an important part in whether the
buildings materialize after the
war.
In preparing for this layout Pro
fessor Smith, the Board of Re
gents, and Chancellor C. S. Bou
cher consulted population trends
and university enrollment as
guiding factors. Instead of ex
panding Into adjacent residential
districts, the university of tomor
row will engulf the open areas on
the present campus.
Quad Fills Out.
The filling of the Quadrangle,
the open space between Andrews
Hall and Teachers college and
running from 12th to 14th streets,
is the predominant addition to the
campus. Buildings planned for
this area include an auditorium
north of the Social Science build
ing on the west end of the
Quadrangle.
A building housing the music,
art, and drama departments would
be where the present tennis courts
now stand. Directly between An
drews and Teachers buildings is
planned a big class room building.
Co-operative men's dormitories
and a women's gymnasium are the
only buildings off campus that are
scheduled for erection. The state
owns both tracts of land. Imme
diately east of the Coliseum is the
location for a proposed armory.
On a site immediately south from
Teachers college and across from
the Student Union is a training
school for teachers. The tearing
down of the former museum and
Nebraska hall and the erection of
an Engineering building is also
suggested under the present lay
out. The creator of the new campus
layout, Professor Smith, com
mented thusly on the new plan:
"Logically, the campus divides
Intself into four use areas. The
old campus, of accidental but
charming arrangement, becomes
the scientific area. The new cam
pus with buildings grouped about
the library, contains the largest
class groups, consolidates the lib
eral arts studies. The coliseum
and stadium area furnish amble
physical education space, while
the campus east of 14th street is
becoming the residential center. It
is fortunate that existing condi
tions make this plan possible with
out the sacrifice of structures
which are not obsolete, or the
purchase of additional land.
Library Dominant Feature.
"The Don L. Love Memorial li
brary becomes the dominant archi
tectural and intellectual feature of
the new campus, while giving to
13th Btreet a splendid terminal
feature. The other structures of
this area are so reasonably related
to the library that the objects of
university life are more nearly

realized. When the landscaping,
trees and shrubs, frame these
buildings and lead the eye along
new and restricted vistas, we hope
to achieve a cool, quiet and peace
ful atmosphere.
"The regrouping of buildings
about an academic quadrangle
leading south from memorial mall
concentrates and unifies this por
tion of the campus, which hereto
fore has seemed to sprawl. But
most important of all, is the con
sideration of the speed of the stu
dent while walking between
classes. The distance between the
Law building and Morrill hall is
almost too great to traverse dur
ing the ten-minute interval be
tween classes. With this new plan
we hope to use the students time
more efficiently and more effectively."
invited, last week there were sev
eral. High-talking Roy Byrom,
student council member, brought
along many of his friends. What
he'll do this year is indefinite.
What he did last year is also in
definite. Also on th student council,
once-Barb Union president Dave
Marvin is on the Student Union
Board. So far this year his time
has been taken up getting the
matinee dances going (and putting
the NIA treasury back in the black
again). He was present at the
meeting in person, but as to what
he thinks of and will do in barb
work this year, no one knows. At
least he took no part in the dis
cussion. The New Onet ...
Back from last year, but really
beginning their activities with the
present semester are Ralph Fox,
president of the NIA, Bill Green,
intra-mural enthusiast, and Mary
Ellen Sim, who has already done
work with the district system. Bob
Dewey was there too, to resign his
position on the Council because
he's carrying 22 hours this year.
Fox presided at the barb meet
ings quite efficiently, and has
taken much interest in getting the
NIA going. Of a quiet, unimpos
ing manner, he is an unusual con
trast to the barb leaders of the
past year who put over their ideas
with confidence and bluster.
Socially Minded.
Concentrating on the social pro
gram, though she didn't know it
unti last week, is sophomore Vir
ginia Stuermer. She was elected
to the NIA Council from District 1
in the spring election, and started
working on the social program
with much vigor. Her plans for
a pre-election dance this fall to
start off the barb social season
should be a success, if carried out
There were others at the meet
ing too, and most of them were
ready to work and not too intent
on the political program. An
nouncement that hour dances had
already been arranged between the
various co-ops, the dorm, and other
organized houses received much
commendation as a start in organ
izing unaffiliated students socially.
But whether all this will work is
still an if. The barb "sheep"
haven't spoken yet.
