would go to the Agriculture
College.
One half of the money that

Friend, Father, Elder Statesman:
Aiding Foreign Students Rewarding
To Retiring Adviser, Dr. Rosenlof
By Sondra Whalen 1
Friend, father and elder
statesman to the University's
international students,
George Rosenlof will com
plete 38 years with the Uni
versity in August.
"I think one of my most re
warding experiences has been
the satisfaction of helping our
overseas students see the es
sence of the American way of
life," Dr. Rosenlof said.
NU Benefits
"The University has bene
fitted from these students,"
he explained. "We now have
alumni all over the world,
and in responsible positions in
their home countries, too."
Dr. Rosenlof has been the
foreign student adviser since
1945, immediately following
World War II. He was not
officially recognized by the
Board of Regents with the ti
tle until he retired as Dean
of Admissions three years
ago.
Gifts from various, coun
tries decorate the top of his
, bookcase in his office and he
reports, that "I have many
pther beautiful things a t
Some1.
"I first became interested
in a foreign student program
while I was a student at Co
lumbia University," he said.
"They have a huge Interna
tional House that serves three
schools and holds mora than
500 students."
He explained that the
bouse was divided into two

Junior colleges would re

Don Thompson of McCook
suggested should go to the
states' four junior colleges.

'I was made a member of
the House," Dr. Rosenlof
said, "and because my par
ents came from Sweden, I
was made an honorary mem
ber of the Swedish group."
'Greatest Institution
He called the House the
greatest institution "f o r in
ternational understanding
built anywhere."
"My most regrettable expe
rience was when the Interna
tional House here was dis
banded for a Faculty Club,"
he explained. "It resulted in
the defeat of n international
center on the campus."
Dr. Rosenlof received his
Masters' Degree from the
University in 1922. Then, in
1945, as Dean of Admissions,
he began to receive letters
from students in other coun
tries who wanted to attend
the University. .
Personal Letters
"There were practically no
international students here
then," he said. "I wrote to
"each one personally, telling
him about the University."
The University now has ap
proximately 250 foreign stu
dents from 57 countries. More

The Student Council judici

Gary Frenzel, in present

stated that the constitution
was disorganized because of
so many amendments tacked
on the end and that provision
for representation should be
changed. due to the fact that
two colleges have switched
to 4 and 5 year curriculums.
The Council adopted the re

many from Turkey, China

Dr. Rosenlof praised the
"growing interest in the
citizens of this community
and state in these young
people."
However, he saiu he was
disappointed that not more
U.S. students were interested
in foreign students.
"Why don't some of the or
ganized houses invite some
of these students over for
dinner on Monday night?" he
asked. "They could ask them
to tell about their countries,
and the house members could
tell about America. It would
be a rich experience for
both."
Dr. Rosenlof also expressed
the thought that some of the
international students might
be invited to live in an or
ganized house for a semes
ter. Visits Desired
"One of Mrs. RosenloFs
and my strongest desires is
to visit the. home countries
of some of these young peo

He added that the Rosen

Statement
Misunderstanding
Still Not Cleared
Nate Holman Jr., a member
of the University Alumni As
sociation, indicated that he did
not tell Sen. Jack Romans of
Ord that the Board of Regents
would investigate the school's
College of Law.
Romans had said, after
withdrawing his resolution for
a legislative investigation of
the college, tfiat he had under
stood from talks with Holman
and a letter from John Sel
leck, board secretary, that
the Regents would investigate.
The letter from Selleck
failed to verify this.
Holman said that he told
Romans only that the senator
should make any information
about University hiring poli
cies available to the Regents.
"If the evidence is suffi
ciently strong they (the Re
gents) would have to investi
gate," Holman said he told
Romans.
A group of a half-a-dozen
legislators may try to talk in
formally with Chancellor Clif
ford Hardin concerning the
hiring problem.
The letter from Selleck to
Romans said that the Board
of Regents has the legal au
thority to hire staff members.
"We should like, therefore,"
the letter continued, "to in
vite you to present to the
Board any information you
may have pertaining to its
employment practices."
George Round, director of
public relations, said this let
ter was the only official action
of the Board, as far as he
knew.

Choice Schedule Bits Fly
12 Hour Plans Prevail
"But 111 never be able to get up that early every day
"Why you're nuts to take a course from that guy."
"Imagine that no morning classes free for coffee oa
Monday, Wednesday and Friday."
The above have been typical comments of campus stu
dents as that time of year for arranging class schedules
rolls around once more.
And the perfection which everyone wishes to attain la
their schedules once again seems to be missing, judging
from the frantic searching of class schedule books, the de
cisions to take only a dozen hours of classes and the smash
ing of pictures of the Administration Building.
Some specific comments below give cross-section of the
feelings about the schedules most people have pulled. Tha
names are psuedonyms to protect the interviewed and
especially to protect the writer:
Etaoin Furd, grad student in cuisine (his name always
seems to pop up) :
"It is disappointing that a man of my caliber must ba
destined to the dark despair of the schedule that I must
take. It is with a deep regret that I announce that I have
five 8 o'clocks, three noon classes, two afternoon labs, a
four-hour lab on Saturday morning and one evening semt
nar."
Everett Klautze, sophomore in knife-sharpening:
"Like, man my schedule is bad. I gotta get outta the
pad to hit my classes real "early next semester like, and tha
profs I have, well, you know, they're kinda like way out"
Wanna Betta, junior in Alaskan forestry:
"Im just going to have a really keen schedule. Why it's
so peachy. I'm in Alaskan forestry you know, and 14 of the
15 flours I'm taking I'll get to earn when we gi to Juneau,
you know. And we only have to stay one day."
Y. Not, senior in agreement:
"It is just, fitting and proper that I have arrived at such
a suitable schedule. Despite the fact that I have two four,
hour labs and 8 o'clock lectures every day in this one
hour course, insect dissection, I'm very satisfied. You know
why, because I've been accepted into Cal Tech. I'm leav
ing." Orang Utang, freshman in beak banding:
"So why sweat class schedules. I'm flunking out of
school."
Wednesday, May 6, 1959
ecoun
Election
a recount of the IBM results
is permitted and a similar re
quest would be valid by any
student involved in the eleo
tion.
E. Moses, head of the IBM
Department, enumerated tha
two chief causes of ballot re
jections and voidments.
Haste a Factor
Haste on the part of. the stu
dents when voting, thus failing
to read or not following the
directions rei rring to the spe
cific number and-or sex of
candidates to be elected, was
cited as one reason.
The other is the failure ef
the students to fill in the bal
lot in the correct manner.
Ballots which were marked
reasonably close to the pre
scribed manner were counted
by hand by a committee,
Moses stated.
Recounts Possible
Students who desire re
counts are welcome to do so,
according to Schick and
Moses. Moses said that the
"devices used to count the
ballots are mechanical and
are not above erring.
The ballots were counted
with one faculty member
present and the ballots will
be kept by the senior Student
Council advisor for a period
of thirty days after the elec
tion for the purpose of re
counts, as is stipulated in the
Council Constitution.
USC-NU
To Swap
Teachers
A teaching exchange will
bring a professor of economics
to Nebraska from California
and will allow a University
professor to spend his. sum
mer there.
Dr. Edward Schmidt pro
fessor of economics, will
teach at the University of
Southern California during the
summer session.
In return, Dr. E. Bryant
Phillips, associate professor
of economics at the California
school, will teach here.
Dr. Phillips will teach not
only principles of economics
but also a course in home eco
nomics. His text is currently
used here in the home eco
nomics course.
Last year, Dr. Phillips was
one of 50 winners of a national
contest sponsored by the
Committee for Economic De
velopment New York City.
Each entry wrote a 2,000-word
paper on the question, "What
is the most important eco
nomic problem to be faced by
the U. S. In the next 20
years?"
Dr. Phillips Is a graduate of
the University. He has taught
at Southern California since
1947.
