( Burbank studied at North Da kota State College before coming to Nebraska. Farida received a scholarship to study at the Teach ers College at Kirksville, Mo. Her scholarship was extended a year and she chose the University of Nebraska because of family ac quaintance with Chancellor Gus tavson. When asked if they found their fields of study related Farida and Burbank said they did and Farida, smiling, said, "He knows of my field, but I know little of his."

Certain permissions were neces sary for Farida and Burbank to be married. The Iranian government, through the Iranian embassy, had to issue her a marriage permit which would be recognized by the Iranian government. And Burbank had to get permission to take Farida into his home country. Their parents approve of the marriage. Farida says, "They think we are old enough to de cide ourselves."
