Steve who was a finalist for
Outstanding Collegiate Male
in 1961, has a scholastic over
all average of 7.1, the second
highest in his class in the
College of Engineering, is a
former member of the Engi
neering executive Board, and
served es an editorialist for
the Nebraska Blueprint.
He was Co-Editor of the In

Book in 1961, and with his
wife holds this position for
1962.
A General Motors Scholar,
Steve has a Regents Scholar
ship and the Duane Butler

of Sigma Chi social frater
nity, and is a member of Phi
Eta Sigma, Pi Tau Sigma,
Sigma Tau, and Sigma Delta
Chi honorary fraternities, and
is currently the student
writer for the Nebraska Alum
nus.
Accomplishments
His list of accomplishments
is even more impressive that
his list of activities. Under
his leadership, intone semes
ter the Student Council has
developed and undertaken
more" significant projects than
it has in recent years. The
University of Nebraska has
had few individual students
who have taken the 'interest
in and devoted the effort to
its development and progress
that Steve has.
Steve is known by many of
his friends as being a very
sincere and honest individual,
and idealist who has placed
not only his personal g o a 1 1
and objectives high, but has
a determined desire to s e e
student activities and organi
zations of which he has a
part reach the highest level
of accomplishment they pos
sibly can.
It is our sincere belief that
no other individual in t h e
University of Nebraska com
munity has ever been more
devoted to his university or
is more deserving of the
honor of Outstanding Nebras
kan. We encourage your con
sideration of him".

, Delegates from all Big Eight schools
unanimously accepted a resolution en
dorsing and encouraging a pilot People-To-People
(PTP) program which will be
developed in the coming semester at all
Big Eight universities.
Meeting at the Big Eight Student Gov
ernment Association conference at Lin
coln's Nebraska Center over Christmas
vacation, the delegates call PTP a "vital
aid in increasing mutual understanding
among the nations of the. world."
Chip Kuklin, PTP chairman of the Stu
committee will soon be "ready to move"
in setting up a People-To-People program
on the University campus, a preliminary
study on the need and feasibility of PTP
at NU just completed.
"People-to-People will initiate a new
concept in a sincere and spontaneous ex
change between international and Ameri
can students on the Big-8 campuses,"
said Kuklin. "The details will be re
leased soon."
Founder
In a second meeting at the Center,
some thirty representatives from al' Big
Eight schools met with Bill Dawson, stu
dent founder of the University People-to-People
concept, to move into the second
stage of a pilot program designed to set
up People-to-People councils at each of
the Big Eight schools.
"People to People as it was set up at
Kansas University," said Dawson, an en
gineering student at the University of
Kansas, "broke down the barriers be
tween American , and international stu
dents, promoting understanding of each
others' cultures, ideals, and ways of life."
' This People-to-People meeting at the
Nebraska Center ever Christmas vaca
tion was called to report the results of a
pilot study undertaken by all Big Eight
schools following an orientation meeting
on People-to-People last November at the
University of Kansas. v
Favorable reports from each of the Big
Eight schools in student interest and
need for the People-to-People program
prompted Dawson to give a go-ahead to
the Big Eight pilot project the first of
its type in the United States.
Responsibility
"It is our responsibility as American
students," said Dawson, "to give inter
national students a hand whenever we
can with their needs and problems as
our guests in the United States."
"We can do this partly by working be
side them as they study and interpret
our culture, traditions and ideals and
partly by extending to them the hand of
American friendship."
"In the exchange that follows, we will
learn of their harjs and aspirations in
an accurate and comprehensive way for
which no amount of reading can sub
stitute." Dawson reported that funds had been
made available to set up People-to-People
on a university level nationally.
Big Eight
He said further that he, Rafer Johnson,
and Rick Barnes, who assisted Dawson
in setting up KU program, would soon be
traveling across the United States if the
Big Eight People-to-People program
proved successful.
Financing of the People-to-People pro
gram on a campus level would be de
pendent on local fund raising campaigns,
said Dawson.
"Some $4,000.00 has been raised from
students at the University of Kansas,"
said Dawson, "for People-to-People since
the program was initiated last March."
In other business at the meeting the
national coordination center for the Uni
versity People-to-People was moved from
the University of Kansas to Kansas City.
