Sheldon Art Gallery, Kellogg Center
Highest on List of NU Building Plans
University building plans
might best be described as
tentative at the present.
Construction of the Sheldon
Art Gallery may begin late
this winter, according to
Charles Fowler, director of
the Division of Buildings and
Grounds. t
Art Gallery
Fowler, in discussing future
plans at the University added
that the two and one-half mil
lion dollar building will be
one of the finest in Lincoln.
Funds for the art gallery were
made possible through dona
tions by the late Miss Frances
Sheldon, a former faculty
member, and her brother,
A. B. Sheldon.
The tentative site for the
gallery Is at the corner of
12th and R streets, the former
location of the P h a r m a c y
building. .
Specifications for bids for
the Kellogg Center, are out
now, Carl Donaldson, business

Building will begin as soon
as possible after the Board of
Regents approves a bidder.
Kellogg Center
The two and one-half mil
lion dollar Nebraska Center
for Continuing Education will
probably be completed ap
proximately Jan. 1, 1962.
More adequate lighting fa
cilities are a necessity for the
University, Fowler and Don
aldson said. Areas which need
better lighting include 12th
and Vine Streets and the area
between Mueller Tower and
Love Library. More lighting
was also suggested for the
Agriculture campus.
"Some of these areas may
be out for contract this sum
mer," Donaldson siad.
There are no definite plans
in the future for construction
of new music, women's physi
cal education and physics
buildings. Fowler said, al
though the University is very
much aware of the need of
these new facilities.
Elgin Building
Plans for the recently pur
chased Elgin Building are
still uncertain, according to
Donaldson and Fowler.
"The difficulty is one of
convenience for the students,"
Fowler explained. "It will be
almost impossible for students
to walk to Nebraska Hall
(new name of the Elgin build
ing) from other buildings on
campus in ten minutes."
Tentative plans are to
house several departments in
Nebraska Hall, Donaldson
said. These may Include Con
servation and Survey Service,!
Extension Division, Audio
visual Aids Department, Uni
versity Publication Depart
ment and the I'hotograpny
Department.
He added that classrooms
would probably be in use in
the building in approximately
two years.
Several fraternity and so
rority houses on campus are
also included in the building
program. However, Donald
son stated that the houses are
being hampered by lack of
expansion space.
Church Centers
Among the church centers
v,!th immediate building
plans are the Newman Cen
ter, Wesley House and Epis
copal Center.
At the College of Medicine
in Omaha, work is still being
done on Unit Three, an aca
demic and hospital area.
When completed, the Unit
will contain a library, dietary
and dining room service and
a new operating room.
Cost of the project in
Omaha is expected to be ap

Dog's Life at College Mainly

Stories about boys and their

when boys become college

attend the University of Ne

Scholastically outstanding
1959 Nebraska high school
graduates who enroll at the
University this fall will be el
igible for one hundred "work
scholarships" at the Univer

University organization will
be applied to board or room
costs or both. On the average
the employment will involve
approximately six hours of
work a week and will consist
of food service jobs, labor
and office work.
Chancellor Clifford Hardin
explained that earnings will
cover about half of the usual
room and board costs.

To Frosh
Three scholarships for en

freshmen, have been estab

the full tuition for one year.
One award will go to the
top-ranking freshman from
the University, the second to
the outstanding applicant
from a Nebraska college other
than the University and the
third, based on scholarship
and need, to an applicant
from any college. Recipients
will be determined by the Ad
missions Committee.
Dr. S. A. Swenson Jr., presi
dent of the association, stated
that, "We have been losing too
many outstanding applicants
to other colleges With this
scholarship program we hope
to encourage the outstanding
students to enroll at Nebras

made possible through the
payment of annual dues to the
medical alumni association.

Men's Dorm
Location of the next men's
dormitory will probably be
17th Street between , R a n d
Vine Streets. The campus is
expected to someday extend
well past 24th Street, he said.
"There was a time when all
the University had to worry
about was to provide class
rooms for the student," Don
aldson said.
"Now students who used to
live in private homes in Lin
coln have to have housing as
well as the 18 hundred mar
ried students. The more
houses you build, the more
problems arise concerning
traffic, parking and lighting.
All these things must be con

plans at the University."

"It seems as if Duchess had
swiped a diaper off a faculty
clothesline," Larry Schrag re

called the University officials
who in turn called jis. There
really wasn't too much we
could do about it."
Duchess, the St. Bernard,
and Con are familiar sights
around campus as both are
often seen running through
buildings and occasionally sit
ting in classes. Last year cn
Ivy Day Con created quite
scene as he pestered the girls
singing in the sorority com

Council that their power was
limited by only two factors,
the Council constitution and
the members themselves.
Rogge said that the consti
tution gave rather broad pow
ers so that most of what a
Council accomplished was up
to its members.
New Council vice president
and chairman of the judici
ary committee, Bob Krohn,
read excerpts from the Coun
cil constitution in regard to
unexcused absences.
Three Absences
The constitution allows a
Council member three unex
cused absences and three ex
cused absences. After this he
is automatically removed
from membership by the
president.
Following these reports,
Council members indicated
their preferences for commit
tees on which they will serve
next year.

ments assigning members to
the various committees.
