On the University Budget
There has been much misunderstanding on the subject
of the recommended budget before the Unicameral at the
present time. Before we begin any comment on the subject,
we would like to emphasize our usage of the term "recom
mended" since the proposals now under committee discus
sion are tentative in every sense of the word.
. Much of the misunderstanding can be traced back to a
failure on the part of both the students and, strangely
enough, the legislators, to be properly informed. This dis
crepancy was noticeable for the first time when Senator
Pritchard and Chancellor Gustavson spoke over a Vet's
Views broadcast on the university's financial requests. The
Senator's ideas on the budget were vastly different from
those of the Chancellor, mainly because Pritchard's sources
of information had been limited to former Governor Gris
wold's statement upon his retirement from office.
If the subject were not so close to home, the idea that
many of the Unicameral members thought the Board of Re
gents was requesting funds for two buildings would be very
humorous. However,- the Regents had actually requested
fourteen buildings. ,
Since that time, Governor Val Peterson submitted his
recommendations to the legislature, and it seems that his
recommendations have furnished the main bone of conten
tion. The Peterson proposal, while allowing for increases
from the last biennium budget, represents a cut of approxi
mately one million dollars when contrasted with the orig
inal Board of Regents' requests. This saving comes at the
expense of proposed university staff salary increases. We
have heard it said that this decrease manages to hurt the
maximum amount of people in the maximum number of
places.
Such a statement should not be construed as an in
tended slur on the legislature, nor should it be inferred that
this paper discounts the importance of new buildings and
the financial backing for other university additions. We do
feel, however, that salary increases are of the utmost and
immediate necessity.
Nebraska has lost outstanding men in several depart
ments because other universities have been better prepared
to pay them their worth. This fact has been mentioned by
Chencellor Gustavson in several talks during the past
months. We feel that the temporary hardships of over
crowding and poor physical equipment are secondary to th6
permanent damage which may be done if the university
faculty suffers further inroads. This, we believe, justifies
the statement .about maximum damage to all. It seems
logical to assume that both professor and student will even
tually and immediately suffer.
This represents the first in a series of articles and edi
torials which will appear in The Daily Nebraskan on the
university budget.
There should be no doubt as to the fact that Nebraska's
legislators are fair-minded and that they will greet any
logical requests with the same respect that is due them as
the law-makers of the state. J.H.
