Unicameral Must Raise
NU Faculty Salaries
The partial results of Dr. Lyman A. Glenny's survey
of higher education in Nebraska, which shows that fac-
ulty salaries at the University are lower than the regional
average in every instance proves what we have suspected f
for some time and what many persons affiliated with the
University have maintained.
The question now is what is going to be done about
this backwardness of our educational system in the state.
Are salaries going to be raised? This is a question that is
up to the state legislature to answer when it convenes in
January. It will be considering the University budget 1
recommendation, which no doubt will include a request
for more money for faculty salaries, and this body of
43 men and women will have the power to approve or
veto the recommendation.
In a study conducted by the state of Oregon covering
the academic year of 1938-59, Nebraska ranked 21 out of
23 state universities in salaries for professors and asso-
ciate professors. The University ranked last in payments
for assistant professors and lh for instructors. I
A United States Office of Education study of 46 insti-
tulions during approximately the same period showed a
mean salary of $9,480 for professors, S7J2S0 for associate
professors, $5,030 for assistant professors and S4.900 for
instructors. Maximum and minimum means ranged from
$1X350 to &550 for professors. '
Tbe NU averages at that time were: professor, S8.073;
associate professors. S8,6S7: assistant professors, S5.4S2;
and instructors, $4,619.
State Sea. John Cooper, Republican candidate for I
governor, says he supports faculty salaries equal to those
of iastitotioas in both the Great Lakes and Plains regions, s
Thus would mean a considerable raise from the present
level It would be necessary to increase the University's
Badge! request by a considerable amount to satisfy Coop-
er's stand. The nly stumbling block here is can we bold
Cooper to Ms word. In 193 be voted to cot $400,000 from
the budget. This amount would have been a good start
towards improved faculty pay.
Presently, we have an outstanding faculty. One of
its members who retired last June made the observa-
tim tbat for tbe salaries the UniversiSy pays, we don't de- e
serve tbe quality of educators tbat we have. We can csdy
second Ms statement TMs session of foe legislate will I
be all importaBt in determining wbetber we have a qual-
ity inslitntian and retain the present faculty or whether
we become just another school out in the sticks.
The Fans Aren't
Giving Up Yet
BiH Jennings picked a good toe to catch the Oa
Monday, because Ms assistant, Getus Fischer, really
took it on the chin at the Monday mwm quarterback meet
ing in Omaha. The Omahans had plenty f gripes about
Saturday's game with Kansas Slate and Ihey didn't pdl
any punches in telling Fischer about them.
However, Fischer was in a morse posatiDO than
Jennings would have been, because be was scouting
Army in its loss to Peim State and didn't even see the
Eosker contest.
He tried to answer some of the questions as best be
could, explaining that the team morale is oJk., adding
that it as sever quite as good as wnen you wis every
game. "'We aren't giving up and I Ihope tbe tans arent
giving iip,"" Fiscber remarked.
The fans bavenl given op, yet Admittedly, Xebras
ka's offense isnl very linteresting as charged. But the
critics inuisl mot forget that it was defense and a fine
kicking game that meant tbe difference ra the Texas
game. M mas defense prhnsrHj that won the Kansas
State game. It mas just a (question uf Kansas State
tiring an the second half, wMe Nebraska kept driving.
Ho, the fans arent giving inp; at ikeast we aresl.
It's Pittsburgh
' AD the Way
How aboti those Pirates? Just when the Yankees are
rolling with 26 runs in twe games, back comes Pittsburga
to take tt next two games and a three t two lead in
the series. And they donl give any signs off fetting jap,
which means tbe title may i a! wrapped up Iby Wednes
day's game in Pittsburgh.
As the 'Cliche Headed sports stories put it, it was as
"icy nerved" Eroy Face" ireM pitching that "put ut.
the Yankee fire' Monday. It was the third time that
Face nac come on t save the day. He may aura ut to
be the deciding factor in the outcome sS the Series.
Chances are the bookies ane imnVrr.g j few changes
about in the odds as to wno will be the champs. Two days
ago the Yankees were strong favorites, tout the Pirates
Just ignored them and Jought lhack valiantly. Old Casey
must be doing some mighty deep it-.hTr.tmig about now,.
Eat we"W got tie answer for him. His Yanks bob t iba
a chance; they used mp all their runs in the second and
third games.

Not Guiltv
By Myrwi Papadalds
and Bob Nye.
RecentHytbere has been
; much talk on campus of a
I stricter enforceiment of
j "college policy." This talk
: is based on tbe fact that
; several of tbe organized
; bouses have recently been
: placed on some sort of pro
: baton. Romors have even
: been spread that the Uni
sixy is trying to eradi
cale the Greek system.
Stop for a cnament and
iffliinir la all imslances the
bouses have been in the
wrong and for that reason
they were disciplined. Tbe
question of whether or mot
I the administjaticai is
j cracking -down"" will
have to go unanswered
since only they know. It
bvioiis that the administra
tion has its policies set.
and they are determined
to stand by thers.
Is tbe University a pojoe
: force r an mstifcatioa ffer
ixtg an education? ' This
might be -arLto a little
thought from stadenl and
administrator alike.
In 1901 a book was written
by LeBaron Basse!
Eriggs, dean of arts and sci
ences at Harvard. The
book, '"Collet, Life," deals
with tbe problems tS tj -dents
in adjusting t college
life. In 1900 imailar prob
lems faced tbe student and
adinMstramcm as today.
The foHwing are some .of
Dr. Brag's answers to the
ideal relatiauship between
student and icniversity.
Concerning evil an sic :
Tbe best school is the
school that prepares him
for this struggle, mot the
one that guards him roost
sternly, nor the .school that

guards him not at ail." In
which category does our
fine Univer-..;, all?
Another astosinding and
to some shocking, fact
came about last week when
the IPC found " ridica-
loasSy powerless it was
when the adaoMstrataon
overruled one of its deci
sions. Why ielegate authori
ty only to tak. it away
when it is exercised'
Dr. Eriggs says: "Wheth
er colleges should guard
their students more closely
than they do, is an open"
qsjeslion. For the deliber
ately vicious, safeguards
wald amount to nothing;
for the weak they might
lessen the danger of sudden
temptation; I t this I know,
that some system off "grad
ually increased respomsibil
ily is best in theory, and
has proVed good iil practice.
This scheme makes a con
fident appeal to tbe matur
ity of some boys and to
the reasonableness of all,
trusting to see that. ' the '
best tapes f teacher and
scholar are me and tbe
same.
"The sysle&i of gradu
. ally increased responsibiili
ty at school must be met
halfway by tbe system of
friendly supervision at col
lege."" Later Dr. Briggs
says, "The best thkg educa
tion can do is to make moral
character efficient through
mental discipline."
la lane may S thinking
ftamtteding at tbe time we
believe mitla Dr.. Eriggs j.
taking reSjUonsMLity f r $ m
what me hope is a mature
and authoritative group at
the lime f decJsion was
perhaps a mistake, unless f
course one brands She
grasp irresponsible.
Is it possible that in tbe
sixty years ihal ha we
passed since Dr. Eriggs
published bis thoughts., ad
ministrative theories have
changed mith the times so
much that me can no longer
look to tbe past for prac
ticable ideas?
To this question me have
no direct epinitm, s 1 y
more questions. Obviously,
questions can answer a
question, and tfat 3 pur

The big move on campus
is to take a course in study
skills. Because a lot of
freshman don't have time
to work this into their
schedules, I think I should
publish a general aid for
everyone to read. My writ
ings are on note taking. I
can show my method most
easily by examples.
The prof says:
"The average IQ differ
ence between boys and
gills at age 15, approxi
mately speaking, is eight
deviations from the mean
and can be judged by the
Null hypothesis. The girls
IQ's are about 15 points
higher, according to the
Stanford-Binet test"
Yon write down:
Girls are brownies and
get better grades.
The prof says:
"Current authors have
come to doubt the complete
advantageousness of some
of Truman's policies."
You .write down:
The messed up state of
world affairs today is due
mostly to Tumblings and
goof ups of Harry Truman.
The prof says:
"... it is possible that
we do not completely un
derstand the teachings .of
Freud."
Yi -write down:
Prof. Egbert is - a sex
maniac.
Tbe prof says:
"The solution of this
simple problem is obvious
and can be easily under
stood with a little amount
of studying."

This method of taking
