E
ect New Council MerniBers
By ANDA ANDERSON
The new Student Council
personnel -will - be stepping
into their positions next fall.
Some of the members will be
old hands at the procedures,
others will be beginners, but
all of them will be trying to
improve the Council, its re
lationships with the faculty
and other students, and work
ing for their colleges.
All the newly elected mem
bers have definite . ideas
which they propose to carry
out. A sampling of the new
members' aims shows that
15 categories are listed in the
list of changes and improve
ments. Student apathy is on the
minds of most of the new
members. The budget, pub
lic relations, expanding the
work of the Student Council,
reduction of member
ship, more equal representa
tion, and revamping of com
mittees are also expressed
goals.
Improving relationships and
understanding between Ne
braska and other universities,
Lewis
Tom Lewis. Ag College rep-
resentative, feels that there
is a definite need for "closer
cooperation and more corre
lation between the commit
tees of the Student Council.'
He will "try to represent
every student "in the Ag Col
lege with the emphasis on the
average, common student, on
or off the Ag College cam
pus." . Lewis also feels that there
is a definite need for a na
tional student organization,
but that he is not in favor of
NSA.
He will also be working to
wards altering the schedule
of classes on Ag campus to
eliminate 10 minute switches
between classes. Lewis wants
a special bus running between
the city and ag campuses.
Parking problems and better
recreational facilities in the
dorms are other concerns of
Lewis.
Summer Work
To enhance summer work
possibilities, Lewis feels that
the school year should be
Gunlicks will be carrying out
the following points:
supporting the Campus Asso-1 shifted as to the vacation
ciation Program, investigat
ing the grading system, mod
ifying vacation schedules and
playing with the idea of a
quarter system were also
areas mentioned by the new
members.

Also representing Ag Col

who feels the main role of the
Student Council "should be to
act as a moderator between
the students and the faculty
and to help improve the rela
tions between the two."

working for a more ac

to help reduce student apathy.
Equal Representation
Weill, who believes the Stu
dent Council must become the
fundamental part of campus
life and be the voice of stu
dent opinion, wUl be trying
to get representation to be
more equal. "This can be
done by an evaluation of or
ganization representation. For
instance, Corn Cobs has a
representative, but K o s m e t
Klub doesn't."
He feels the Council must
"continue in the area of is
sues outside our own campus
on the national and state
level, work with Administra
tion and persuade the State
Legislature to allocate more
funds to the University."
He'll also be trying to have
more contacts with the other
schools the size of Nebraska

terest and coordinating mem

ship program could possibly
be used by representations !
from each place of residence
on the campus. Through this
representation, organized liv
ing units could be contacted
j and informed diresctly," Miss
McDowell commented.
Quarter System

WeilL
Gonlicks feels that Student
Council "should regulate all
'Servants'.
He adds, "Governments
should not be 'masters,' but
'servants' to their electorate."
In serving his electorate,
Honey's pre-election platform
called for the elimination of
current Council programs in
two ways:
1) "The committees must
be reorganized and reduced
in number.
2) The Council Associates
should be developed in one
respect to serve as a train
ing ground for future council
members . . .
Safety Problem
Specifically, Honey will be
working on solving the student
safety problem which exists
because of the campus loca
tion and the heavy traffic
which surrounds it. He sug
gests to have an overpass
for pedestrians, a policeman
to be stationed at troublesome
intersections, crossing lanes
to be marked more definite
ly or have heavy traffic re
routed.
He would also see some
thing done in eliminating the
student congestion in entering
and exiting buildings betw een
classes. One suggestion he
gives is to have specific di
rections given to eliviate the
situation.
In regard to the student
newspaper, Honey feels that
it adds to the congestion. He
suggests that the papers be
distributed to all residences
and other areas rather than
at the doorways of class
buildings.
He's also going to work for
a definite plan for selection
of people to honoraries. Two
suggestions are given:
1) To place restrictions on
the number of activities a stu
dent may serve as an officer
of, or participate in.
2) To create an attitude
where students are elected toj
honoraries on the basis of
hew much the leader has done

Cynthia Tinan, one of the
Teacher's College representa
tives also has new ideas.
Grading System
She would like "to see the
i Council initiate a program
with provisions for studying
the University grading sys
tem: to determine its fair
ness to both the student's
abilities and the instructor's
evaluation of a students
work." She adds "the Coun

Ag Picnic Set
By Union Group
Faculty members and stu
dents are invited to the All
Ag Picnic May 15.
The picnic wiU begin at
4:30 p.m., with games being
held on the matt southeast of
the Ag Engineering Building.
Events planned include the
pie eating contest, piggy back
relay, tug of war, bale stack
ing, bicycle race, egg throw
ing, shoe kicking and the 7
legged race.
A hog calling contest is
planned for the Faculty mem
bers and a husbind calling
contest for the faculty wives.
A suitcase relay for faculty
couples is also scheduled.
The picnic is sponsored by
the Ag Union's dance com
mittee with Karen Leach in
charge.
Admission will be 50 cents!
for adults and 25 cents for
children under 12. The fee in
cludes a picnic supper.
Entries for the events must
be submitted by Saturday
noon. Trophies and prizes
wUl be awarded.
He'U be pushing for ways
of improving methods of in-forraing-4he-students-ef-the
Council's activities.
Steve Chrlstensen, Law Col
lege representative, thinks
the CouncU could do its work
better, more rapidly and more
effectively if its size would
be reduced.
Christensen is also going to
check into the Student Tri
bunal and try to revamp it;
attempt to investigate and
recommend a mature policy
as to drinking, entertaining
and housing regulations; form
a councU policy on faculty
hiring policies; and investi
gate and recommend ways to
educate Nebraskans as to the
function of the University, its
services and what the stu
dents are reaUy doing."
Hansen
James Hansen. Engineering
and Architecture, thinks the
CouncU has been held up by
three main stumbling blocks:
1) limited budget, 2) inactive
members and 3) a Council
which can not function when
members resort, to ridicule.
He'll be striving to renew
the Husker Roundtable, in
which the ChanceUor meets
with members of the CouncU
every week thereby "making
closer and better relations be
tween the faculty and the stu
dents."
He thinks past committee
chairmen should give the new
ones a hand at the beginning
of the school year, and that
more consideration and rec-flmmendation-on
civil-defense
on the campus should be
given and that off-campus af
fairs and considerations be
expanded.
Dale Redman and Robert
SeideU, also representing En
gineering and Architecture,
both feel that the C o u n c i 1
should no longer concern him
self strictly with campus is-
SU6S.
SeideU feels that many
issues arise on the state, na
tional and international level
which concern the student
either directly or indirectly.
"Why not discuss these is
sues?" he asks.
A new suggestion, by Sei
deU is. that a committee be
set up to evaluate the Council
and find out just how effi
cient it is under the present
structural set.
Redman is also concerned
about the limited budget. He
says, "In order to opeiate
efficiently, it must be granted
an adequate amount of
money. The present budget
