UNIVERSITY CP NEGRi LIBRARY Hi 3- i ji III 3;, a rr r- ino Council Wants All Parking Change Proposed PZan IFiZZ Limit Frosh Drivers By TOM KOTOUC A plan o restrict the areas in which freshmen commu tors who jive more than eight blocks from campus could park beginning next fall was suggested by Park ing Committee Chairman Steve Cass. "These special freshman lots might be the Elgin lot and Freburger lot near the 10 street viaduct." said Cass. "Center campus I?ts and campus streets would be re served for upperclassmen's cars, although the upperclass tiian would also be allowed to park in the freshman lots," added Cass. Seven hundred of 3500 cars registered with the campus police last semester belonged to University freshman, ex plained Cass. Carl Donaldson, University business manager, is report ed in favor of the new Coun cil plan if details can be worked out. The final decision on the freshman parking in restrict ed lots must be taken by the Student Council before the .University is ready to act on the suggestion, however. Cass also reported that some 500 additional spaces will be made available next fall for campus parking. "The present Foreburger lot will be enlarged to include all the 'area north of Avery Drive near the railroad tracks," he said. With this additional space and the lack of overcrowding at present, no restriction or ban on freshman or soph omore cars is planned.

Discussion at this Greek Week session centered on Africa 1962 Is Topic Of Jackson Traveler Columnist Addresses Students By WENDY ROGERS Colin Jackson, a world traveler, columnist, and com mentator for BBC, tabbed by many as the "delight of col lege audiences," will speak at 11 a.m., today at a Uni versity student convocation in the Student Union. Jackson, who was in Africa durirg December and Janu ary, will give a "Report on Africa, 1962." A Scot by birth, Jackson is an Oxford graduate and a lawyer. Adept at spicing his talks with good doses of British humor, he has made several appearances on the Univer sity campus in recent years as a lecturer and visiting staff member. His special interest lies in the field of political science and "international relations." Last summer, Jackson trav eled through Algeria, parts of the Middle East, and Com munist China. Addressing a political sci ence class Wednesday, Jack son pointed out that he pays his own expenses on his trav elsthat way he is more free from influences. Referring to "that beatnik dictator in Cuba," Jackson commented that if the free world "shuts all the shutters and slams all the doors, they are likely to move solidly to the Communist bloc. "Cuba is an irritant an af front to you," he continued. But, Americans could make the Cuban situation useful in influencing other Latin Amer ican countries against Com munism by "showing up what a mess Castro and Commun ism has made of Cuba." It's a pity, he noted crypti cally, "that you can't tow Cuba down the South Ameri can coast." As for the rumored split be tween Moscow and Peiping, Jackson pointed out that Ken nedy could not lend empha sis to this because it would drive the two back together to present a "united" Com munist front. "What I did while in Com munist China," he said, "was to tell them what a beautiful job Russia had done in build ing THEM up" that shook them up, he noted. The Daily BUDDING THOUGHTS lates ideas of day dreams, Ag ice cream bathing, and three basic problems (1) communication and coopera tion between the two; (2) projects through which both groups could better the Uni versity, and (3) merits of Greek Week. Nancy Tederman suggested that a committee composed of Panhell and IFC represen tatives work together on com mon problems of fraternities and sororities. , Exchange was the basis of a suggestion by Mary Wither spoon that an interchange of ideas between Panhell and IFC would allow either group to adapt useful ideas to suit their needs. Cites Scholarship Roger Myers, vice-president of IFC, cited scholarship as an area in which both groups could work together. Frater nity scholarship in particu lar could benefit from such action, he noted. In a discussion on commu nity service projects, and the motives behind them, John Nolon, president of IFC, point ed out that Greek Week serves as an example of such activities which should con tinue throughout the year. Often, he noted, the original motive for such projects may vary from an altruistic one to one of public relations, but that which such a project is underway, the altruistic mo tive generates its success. Panhell Talks Of Ousting Room Rush The Panhellenic rush com mittee has proposed changes in the booklet on rushing which will eliminate room rushing during sorority rush week next fall. The changes were discussed by all old and new sorority rush chairman with the Pan hellenic rush chairman at a meeting Tuesday night. "The suggestions for a change in room rushing came from last fall's rush chair man," said Sue Backstrom, rush committee member. According to Nancy Mc Gath, Panhellenic president, the proposed changes will be presented to Panhell at Mon day afternoon's meeting. "From here they will go to the individual sorority chap ters for discussion and vote Monday evening," said Miss McGath. A straw vote taken at Tues day's meeting showed that sororities were in favor of do ing away with room rushing, she added. "Room rushing has been objected to in the past on the emotional strain it places on the rushee," concluded Miss McGath - NU Convocation on NSA Nebraskan Photos by Domr McCartney spring vacation, class cuts, afternoon clubs, romance, cones, fallen averages, sun convertibles. Nancy McGath, president of Panhellenic Council, felt that Greek Week as a whole suffered but to a lesser degree, this year from a lack of organization and from a failure to present Greek Week schedules earlier. Organization Trouble Myers returned that, "the trouble was that everyone else thought everyone else should do something no one thought of doing some thing themselves until Greek Week was upon them." To develop spirit and an enthusiasm for Greek Week, an earlier notice is necessary, continued Karlene Senf, Pan hell vice-president. Toward betterment of the University in general it was suggested that Panhellenic work with IFC in going out into the state to help explain the purposes and functions of the Greek system. Beggs Explains Teachers9 At the annual convention of the department of audio visual instruction in Kansas City last week, Walter Beggs, dean of Teachers College at the University, delivered a speech entitled "The Teacher of Tomorrow." In this speech he emphasized that at present teachers are. well trained, but in a few years they will be out. phased. "Mankind is faced with a harsh delemma: he must learn to adjust quickly, intelligently and according to a rational pattern or face the complete dislocation of his society," he said. The needs of the future indicate that teachers must be produced in ever increasing numbers and the quality of performance must be sharply upgraded, he pointed out. Three Problems Beggs indicated there are three main problems which V ' 'of II M 1 1 - 1 Thursday, April 5, 1962 Council Slate Is Revealed IFC to Back 12 For Candidacy The 1962 IFC slate for Stu dent Council has been'an nounced.

Adequate Hearing Sought; Amendment Is Introduced By JIM MOORE A motion that the coming NSA convoca tion, April 16, featuring NSA president Will iam Grady, be made an All-University convo cation has been unanimously passed by the Student Council. The final decision must come from the Division of Student Affairs. In arguing for this motion, Al Plummer observed that "this issue which affects a large proportion of the students should be given adequate hearing on campus" and also, "that the student should be able to get immediate, first-hand information on this controversial issue." Council member Bob Grim- it questioned the validity of such a request, "for if 40 of the students don't even know what NSA stands for why should the administra tion make the meeting an all- university convocation?" Member Sue Moffit coun tered, "that if this is the case, then it is all the more reason to have a convocation to stimulate student inter est."

Using a "random sample" of students in all colleges tak en from the Builder's Direc tory, the survey showed that 47 of the students inter viewed did not know what the letters NSA stand for. Another 76 did not know the name of one representa tive from their college. Council vice-president Don Witt introduced two by-laws to the Council constitution: (1) Restrict all posters used on University bulletin boards to a 8 x 11 in. size and require that these posters be stamped by the registrar; (2) Empower the chair will effect the future educational field. The first is the population explosion. It, is estimated that the population of the world will nearly double each half century if pres ent trends continue. Human endeavors are producing new knowledge and new frameworks for existing knowledge at a fantistic rate. Finally, the underdeveloped peoples of the earth are demanding at least a minimum of the comforts of civiliza tion directly with the amount of education available to them. They are in a hurry and are asking more ad- ' vanced nations for help. Although we can still learn some from history, our problems are of such a nature today that similar problems cannot be found in the past. For instance, we have more food than we know what to do with, we have more leisure time due to the machines that now do the work of un skilled and semi-skilled hands, he said. We have never had these problems before. Economic Competition There are other unprecedented problems. Premier Khrushchev has laid down a plan of economic competition through which he hopes to surpass the United States. Another force, space, or the technology of space is the great dynamo for scientific inquiry. The teacher who has been educated m a modern college or university "is not equipped for long to keep abreast of the fast moving forces of the phenomena we have been considering." The main reason for this is that the academic climate in the U.S. "is past rather than future oriented, and the departments and schools and col leges of education are no exception." Beggs urged that teachers concentrate on equipping themselves to be able to contribute to the learner's moral and spiritual values, his development as a citizen and his comfortable relation to the morals and customs of his society. Teaching Abilities A teacher must also have the "ability to create in structional materials, confer with parents, explain the purposes of education to the public and a whole roster of minor duties ranging from clerical competence to interior decoration. The furure teacher, according to Beggs, will be in a position to control certain processes: (1) the teaching media, including television, films and radio, which will provide the teacher with a great opportunity for a broad er, deeper and more precise coverage of material; (2) the teaching team which would facilitate cooperative planning, pooled resources and the coordinated use of specialized competencies; (3) programmed learning which would place the student on his own and make him rela tively self-su'ficient in the learning of material: (4) a -system envolving a technique for presentation and evalu ation of each daily teaching design making sure that the transitions from one step to the next are coordinated and (5) research exploring the nature of learning, and of the learning environment and adapt research findings in other fields to the needs of education. man of the elections com mittee to hold a meeting to explain Council campaign rules. Attendance by the candidate or his represen tative at the meeting will be compulsory, and the at tendance will be made a matter of record. "If the candidate fails to comply with these regula tions, the Council could con sider dropping him from the ballot," said Witt.
