Ag Honors Program
Geared To Individual
By Marv McNeff
Ag News Editor
A program of studies for
the student with the urge to
go further faster is now in its
fourth year at the College of
Agriculture and Home Eco
nomics. The Ag Honors program,
termed by Dr. Franklin Eld
ridge to be "geared first of
all for individual progress,"
has allowed seniors who will
be first to graduate under it
this spring to carry out ad
vanced research projects ty
pical of graduate work. One
of the current projects has
resulted in a paper which will
be published by a professional
journal.
Selection of second semes
ter, freshman for participa
tion in the honors program
has not yet been announced.
Participants are selected on
the basis of ability to meet
the high requirements of the
advanced program, and per
sonal interest in the program,
The courses for freshmen,
known as Ag. 90, and for
sophomores, Ag. 190, are
guided .by Dr. Eldridge and
Dr. David McGill, assistant
to the dean of the College of
Agriculture, and professor of
agronomy.
A typical class session will
go like this: short research
papers will be presented by
students, ranging over sub
jects in their specialized area
of interest
After the presentation, the
undergraduate giving the pa
per will be quizzed by fellow
students and faculty mem
bers, who are teachers and
researchers in the area cov
ered by the paper.
The administration goals
and aims sections of the hon
ors program are handled by
the Honors Council, composed
of faculty members who are
advisors to the students in
the program. There are usual
ly from 10 to 15 In each class.
The disciplines required for
the course, are adaptable to
an integrated approach with
other Ag campus courses. Dr.
Eldridge gave the example
of the technical writing
course, English 100, which
covers material useful for the
honors routine, and in some
cases material already used
in the honors section.
"We try to stress the per
sonal approach to encourage
originality, creativity, and in
dividual initiative", said Dr.
Eldridge. '.'Our purpose, is to
both permit and prod the stu
dent to go outside the usual
undergraduate area of in
terest." Eldridge said one startling
result of working with the
honors program students, who
are in the top to 10 per cent
of their classes in the Ag Col
lege, was the accumulation of
much more knowledge about
teaching, and the effects of
teaching.
Although the program is
costly in terms of time de
voted to students for coun
seling, Dr. Eldridge feels the
benefits after four years of
time involved.

seeing and swimming.
Expenses for the trip will
be paid with proceeds from
the Orange" Bowl game.

Student Opinion Poll
On Drinking Problem
Exhibitionists, Fires Among
Other Campuses' Problems
Both a student opinion poll
and a random sampling of the
campus will be taken on the
drinking situatiou at the Uni
versity, according to Mike
Barton, Student Council opin
ion chairman.
Approximately 200 individ
uals will be chosen at ran
dom and be sent forms to be
returned to the student coun
cil. "In this way-all facets of
university life will be guaran
teed representation," said
Barton. "This is a more ac
curate way to gain true feel
ings on the drinking situation.
In order that all interested
students may express their
opinions and to create more
interest in the project, a regu
lar campus opinion poll will
also be taken," continued Bar
ton.
The opinion poll will be dis
tributed to the living units on
the Monday when students re
turn from vacation. The fol
lowing Wednesday an official
form will appear in the Daily
Nebraskan. Also on Wednes
day, an opinion poll booth will
be opened in the main lounge
of the Student Union from 9
a.m. to 5 p.m.
"We are trying to make this
as honest and sincere as pos
sible," said Barton. "We
want this to be scientific and
valid.
We urge students to sup
port this and to give an hon
est opinion."
Life on other campuses
throughout these United
States has its quirks v as does
life everywhere. These range
from exhibitionists on the
University of Colorado cam
pus to bicycle parking prob
lems on the Colorado State
campus to demonstrations
against ROTC at the Univer
sity of Kansas at Lawrence
On the University of Colo
rado campus at Boulder, co
eds have reported seeing
three exhibitionists in the
past three months.
Two months ago at the Uni
versity of Kansas at Lawr
ence, members of the Student
Peace Union picketed a meet
ing of the Air Force Reserve
Officers Training Corps that
was held in the Student Un
ion.
The Colorado State Univer
sity COLLEGIAN reported
that a problem arose from
about ' 35 to 46 bicycles that
are now usually found block
ing the east entrance to the
Student Center." However the
COLLEGIAN assured the stu
dents that the problem will
be solved with the coming of
the new bicycle racks that
have been ordered.
From the SCRIBE, issued
from the University of Bridge
port in Conneticut a report
tells of a fire alarm situation
with which the authorities are
having a problem. The
SCRIBE says that someone
has been pulling fire alarms
and causing false alarms. Le
roy McCarty, director of safe
ty and security on the cam
pus said, "We are sure as
hell are looking for him."
FROM THE DAILY TAR
HEEL located in Chapel Hill,
North Carolina, comes a story
telling of telephone line jam
ming. When a person dials
a number, such as a dorm
number, and the line is busy,
the person dialing can talk
to other persons that are also
trying to dial the same num
ber. The TAR HEEL says this
about the mess, "It's a wild
time, indeed, with the total
at any one time often reach
ing ten or more phones. Fra
ternity men swear at anony
mous dorm vocies, dorm men
scream 'Frat rats' and they
all go crazy when a girl joins
the line.'?

On the holy night, the Christ child was born to an nnfajowa
carpenter and his wife in Bethlehem.
No palace phyaieian attended the Prince of Peace per
haps a mid-wife or a serving maid.
No fine linens were prepared for th mother; no erib for
the Babe just the straw and the manger were theirs.
No royal salute was fired to announce His arrival only
the braying of the animals in their stalls was heard
Never was royalty greeted with less pomp and circumstance.
Why? Because man could not raise himself to God!
So God sent His Son to light up our hearts and minds with
His Divine Presence.
His living Spirit brightened the most ordinary and common
place tasks of the day.
If He could so hallow that stable, can He not hallow ra
homes, our places of work, the whole of our lives?
Of course! Consider again and again the miracle of Hi
birth. Be in church on Christmas to welcome anew the Christ
child in your heart.
