Short Exam Period
Faculty reaction to the recent
Faculty Senate decision to limit fi
nal examinations to one week has
resulted in the majority of the fac
ulty in Agricultural College being
in favor of the decision, and those
in Teachers and Arts and Scienc
es colleges being opposed.
Other colleges, ' such as Busi
ness Administration, seemed to be
fairly well devided in their opin
ions of the action.
Dr. Leslie Chisholm, speaking for
Dean Frank Henzlik of Teacher's
College, said that he felt there had
been a general misinterpretation
of the Teachers' College's attitude
toward the Senate action.
"The majority of the faculty in
Teachers are opposed to changes
of the Teachers College's attitude
in the semester exam schedule,"
said. "That has been their position
all along," he added.
Chisholm stated the main objec
tion to the change was the disrup
tion of the Teachers' College pro
grams. He said he doubted wheth
er it would have a major influence,
but felt it would inconvenience
many faculty members and stu
dents involved.
, He said that only ten members
of the Teachers faculty were pres
ent at the Senate. Since it was-a
special meeting, he said, some
didn't know about it.
Dr. William Lambert, dean of
the College of Agriculture, said
that "our people feel that the pro
fessors are putting entirely too
much time in exams." He said
that most of nis faculty find such

The Outside World
Treaty
By DICK
Staff Writer
Austrian freedom became a reality Sunday as foreign ministers
for the Big Four powers and Austrian Foreign Minister Leopold Figl
signed and sealed the thick, leather-bound treaty of independence.
The treaty declares Austria "sovereign, independent and demo
cratic' It allows Austria an army as large as she likes and permits
Austrian entry into the United Nations. However, Austria must make
no pacts with Germany and is not permitted to return to German
property holders any assets worth more than $10,000.
Austrian borders are restored to their position prior to Hitler's
invasion in 1038, and she is relieved of any responsibility for the war.
The treaty becomes legally valid after it has been ratified by
the parliaments of Austria and the Big Four. No difficulties are
expected and ratification should be accomplished by the end of the
summer. Occupation troops wU! pull out within 90 days or by Dec. 31
at the latest.
Adenauer Party Wins
Elections in the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate gave Chan
cellor Adenauer a strong vote of confidence for his pro-Western and
rearmament policies. Adenauer's Christian-Democrat party won an
absolute majority in the state parliament, which in turn will boost his
control over the upper house of the federal parliament.

time "hard to justify."
Lambert said that a great deal
of the two week exam period was
not being utilized, students spend
ing large parts of it for vacation
ing and recreation. This, he added,
has been the view of the Agricul
tural College for several years.
The Agricultural College's fac
ulty, Lambert said, definitely- fa
vors the change. No reaction to it
has come to his attention. He said
that the Ag College did not spon
sor the recent motion in the Fac
ulty Senate. "We had a fairly good
representation at the senate meet
ing," he commented.
A third reaction to the shortened
exam period came from Dr. Walter
Militzer, dean of the College of
Arts and Sciences. Militzer said
that he thought "most of our fac
ulty is against the shortened ex
am period.'
Militzer said there were three
reasons for this feeling. He said
it cramps professors having large
numbers of students in their clas
ses. If instructors have to grade
in a hurry, he said, they will shy
away from essay questions, "which
most feel have considerable value.
Lastly, Militzer said that most
instructors feel that final exams
are important parts of the course.
He said that he didn't feel the
move necessarily meant a lower
ing of standards; "it will vary with
the individual instructor." But it
will, he continued, make it hard
er than ever to conduct large
classes, already a burden on fac
ulty members.
The new set-up, Militzer said,
selection committee composed of
faculty and students will be chos
en by the Nebraskan to select the
Outstanding Nebraskans. Personnel
of this committee will be an
nounced at a later date.
Nominations for Outstanding Ne
braskan may be sent to The Ne
braskan in the Union basement
and should be written in letter form
Parts of the .letter may be used
in The Nebraskan but the name
of the person making the nomin
ation will remain confidential.
Letters should include informa
tion concerning the nature and
length of service, recent outstand
ing accomplishments and positions
or activities.
