Student Council Approves Proposed
Constitution;
The btudent Council's n3w
constitution, as published in The
Daily Nebraskan W e d n esday,
Anril 18, was approved by Coun
ci' members Wednesday.
A few minor changes in word
in" and construction were ex
plained by president Rob Raun
before a motion was passed by
the Council approving the final
draft of the constitution. The
constitution will now be submit
ted for student approval.
The Council set aside its next
meeting date, May 2, for stu
dent hearings on the constitu
tion. Any students or groups who
have suggestions or changing the
constitution or who disagree with
or question any part of it are
invited to present their views be
fore the Council. The hearings
Will be held pt 4 p.m . May 8,
in Room 315 of the Union.
Dean Borgman
Carl W. Eorgman, dean of fac
UU!es, appeared before the Coun
cil to .riiscuss the measures taken
t ' ai d setting up a faculty rat-ir-
system for next year. The
st Jont-f acuity committee which
1" s been considerihg the question
o' 'acuity rating has set up a
p "ti to make rating sheets avail
eMe to faculty members for voluntary-
use.
Dean Borgman pointed out that
"if there is a need for student
evaluation of faculty members,
KJSUS, Campus Radio
Station,, to Offer Tours
"KNUS presents . ."
By turning to 710 on the radio
dial in the areas around the
Union, men's or women's dorm,
a person may hear the programs
presented bv the campus radio
station, KNUS. Vf-
KNUS began operation y soon
after the beginning of the second
semester of 1950-51. . Previously
the station was called KNU and
it operated only over speakers in
the Temple or Union. KNU began
during the last semester of 1950.
The whole idea of having a
campus radio station came about
because the instructors in radio
felt the need for their students
to have practical experience to
supplement and compliment' class1
work. ....
Original KNU
The original KNU was operated
by volunteers. The new KNUS
has a sjaff of advanced radio stu
dents assisted by underclassmen
in radio and students who volun
teered because of their interest in
radio work.
The advanced people fill all of
the administrative positions that
would have to be filled in profes
sional radio stations. The under
classmen work under them ac
quiring experience and learning
the tricks of the trade.

The plnn set ;an Borg
man and the committee would
make the use of Purdue rating
scales entirely voluntary on the
part of instructors, although they
would be made available to all
faculty members. The results of
such ratings would not be sub
mitted to deans or heads of de
partments unless the individual
professors so desired.
Parking Situation
Dean Borgman also discussed
the parking situation. He report
ed the results of a survey taken
between 9 and 10 on a Monday
morning.
"All parking areas between
10th and 14th streets and be
tween R street and the Coliseum
were filled," he said, "but sever
al outlying parking areas were
only one-third full during the
rush hours."
The outlying areas to which
Borgman referred were the area
on 10th street near the stadium
and the district near Bancroft
school. The central areas, he
pointed out, are full even when
the other parking lots are almost
empty.
"There are plenty of parking

Cileee Days Bdeca 11$ot in "8931 ;
Plsiiis Started fov Biiilders In 1950
By Gene Berg
When future University histor
ians study College Days they will
discover:
That the first idea was born
In 1931.
But that It took 20 years un
til 1951 for the all-campus cele
bration to come into being.
In March of 1931 the faculty
senate approved a plan similar
to College Days. The senate com
mittee wrote at the time that an
all-University "open house" would
promote loyalty to the Univer
sity, foster better relationships
between students and faculty
and provide an opportunity for
high school students to become
acquainted with college life.
, 1931 Plan Supported
The 1931 plan had some sup
port, evidenced by the coordina
tion of Engineers Week, Pharm
acy Days and other functions.
When enthusiasm for the plan
dwindled, a group of seniors in
1942 suggested a campus-wide
celebration incorporating Ivy
Day, E-Week and Farmers Fair.
The week-end proved success
ful for one year."
Early in 1950. the University
Builders began consideration of
a College Days plan to 'sell" the
University to high school stud
ents and promote loyalty on the
camnus. Cooperation from the
public relations department and
examination of the success of
similar student-managed events
at Iowa State, Colorado univer
sity and other schools led the
Builders to pursue the idea,
throughout the spring and sum
mer. Builders Go To Work
In the fall of 1950, the Build
ers group contacted administra
tive officials for tentative back
ing of the three-day coordinated
campus event. In October, they
met with the deans of all of the
colleges and received approval
to continue work on College Days.
Cooperation and support of
various campus organizations and
houses bolstered the plan. En

Faculty Committee Appointed
A faculty committee was then
appointed by Chancellor -Gustavson,
headed by James Blackmail
of the mechanical engineering
faculty. The committee met with
the student planners to check
budgets and schedules for th
event.
As the weeks before College
Days lessened, final arrange
ments went into high gear. A
final schedule was adopted, co
ordinating traditional spring
events and College Days innova
tions. College and departments
put finishing touches on their
plans. Invitations and mass pub
licity were sent to high schools
and local newspapers tthrough-
out the state.
Meetings and work by th
committee and a host of students
making arrangements for open
houses and special events contin
ued almost until the Carillon bell
concert which formally opened
the first annual campus-wid
College Days celebration.
Thus, after 20 years, the Col
lege Days week-end, student
initiated, student-planned and
student-managed, was born.
