An Unusual Opportunity . . .
This session of the University of Nebraska summer
school offers students, not only study in their chosen acade
mic work but an unusual opportunity to get an international
educational background about the United Nations.
On the front page of this morning's Daily Nebraskan
are stories about the United Nations educational clinic be
ing held on the campus Monday and Tuesday and about the
United Nations Display on exhibit in Love Memorial
Library until June 24.
The display and the clinic are to tell people what the
United Nations is, what it tries to do, and how it operates.
To most of us the United Nations is a vague thing.
We know it exists and we know the general idea behind it
and a few of its aims and concrete accomplishments. But
perhaps we do not know enough about its actual beginning,
purpose, accomplishments and great importance to the world.
The display which has been made available to the Uni
versity and the general public, attempts to explain these
factors of the UN. It gives a description of the people of
each of the member nations, tells how the world has failed
to achieve peace over the centuries, how the framwork of
the UN was set up, and explains each division of the UN
how it was organized-and how it operates.
Students have a unique opportunity this summer to
learn about the United Nations through this educational
program. Details of the summer experiment appeared in
the June 8 issue of The'Daily Nebraskan.
Everyone should take advantage of this opportunity
while the UN display is right on the campus. It is not,
however, an exhibit that may be glanced at m five minutes.
In order to get the full story and a clear picture of the
United Nations a person should devote some time to its
study. It is an opportunity that will probably not be avail
able to Nebraskans for some time as the display it not
likely to be in this part of the country again.
NeDraskans should be proud of their University and
Nebraska educators for bringing this prosrram to Nebras
ka and making the school the center of a proiect that might
develop into an international program of education!
