It's a picture of "Husky Herf", the suggested spirit sym bol for the University which was approved by a straw vote yesterday in Student Council. fitoliltf oice Campaign By Wayne Kreuscher Junior Staff Writer Andy Taube, Rich Meier and Larry Frolik all three are running for vice president of next year's new Student As sociation. In interviews with the Daily Nebraskan all three students explained what they would like to do as vice president. Lairy Frolik is running with Kent Neumeister, who is a presidential candi date. Frolik explained, "I'm running with Kent because he's the most qualified for the position of president and I think it's desirable that the president and vice president be able to work together. He and I think along the same lines mostly." He said he felt it would be the vice president's role in the new Association to act as speaker of the Senate; to organize the Senate and to be the executive whip. "Student government," he said, "must not be just another activity, but it should lead and govern. Also it must be careful not to become tied up with a lot of pro jects that are none of the Student Sen ate's business."" Frolik pointed out that such commit tees as student activities and the Peace Corps should be done either on the execu tive lvel of the student government or should be handled by other campus or ganizations. He explained that the main area where student government could do a lot more work is in the welfare area. He said that the committee should be enlarged and such things as Dead Week should be put into more effective operation. Student recreation, advisory boards and student wages especially on Ag campus were other things that Frolik felt Student Council should become more concerned about.. Frolik, who is president of Beta Theta Pi Fraternity, has a 7.802 average and is a junior in Arts and Sciences. He is the present corresponding secretary and claairman of the Public Issues commit tee for Student Council. "If I couldn't do the job I wouldn't be running," said Rich Meier as he explained that he felt the vice president's job should be one of communications. He said that he felt it was the vice president's main job to have a good com munication system between student gov ernment and the student body and be tween both of these groups and the facul ty. Meier said that the new government's primary concern next year would be with getting the new constitution to work. Rich pointed out that he would be es pecially capable in communicating with the student body and the faculty because Arts & Science Candidates Interview Thirty-six candidates are running for nine seats as rep resentatives of the Arts & Sci ences College. The Dailv Nebraskan inter viewed the candidates to find out why they are running and what they think some of the specific problems or jobs are that student government will have to face next year. Some type of advisory board that will bring the stu dents in closer contact with their college and faculty and in closer contact with their representatives was one of the most popular ideas sug gested by many of these can didates. Phil Boardman, sophomore, said that he felt that because of the new representation only by colleges some type of ar rangement was going to nave to be made so that students can be in closer contact with their representatives. He also pointed out that he wanted to set up an advisory board that will bring the stu dents into closer contact with the faculty. " Mrs Mqiqf, Toiife Carlton Clark, sophomore, also said that be would like to set up an Arts & Sciences board or a personal board to be in closer contact with the students. Randy Kohlmeier, sopho more, had some specific ideas for an advisory board. "I would like to organize a student advisory board that would have 2 freshmen repre sentatives, two sophomore, three junior, and three senior. So if anybody had any com plaints to make about Arts & Sciences or suggestions they come to the board and pos sibly actually get some or ganized action on their com plaints," Kohlmeier said. Pat Unthank, freshman, also said that student govern ment had to improve com munications between the rep resentatives, the student body and the faculty. Sally Morrow, first semes ter junior, suggested that all the Arts & Sciences represen tatives should meet at least twice a semester with that college's faculty and discuss Stana of his former experience on the Daily Nebraskan and in covering the Constitu tional Convention. He said that one of the first problems the new government was going to face was making the budget work and receiv ing support from all the students. "It seems to me that Larry Frolik is at the present time the front runner, in the vice president's race," he said, "but I feel that since we are setting up a new system of student government and need new ideas and concepts, we need a vice president unlike Frolik who does not have his ideas predicated on experience in the old system and who will not be prejudiced to the old system." "I want to see how strong we can make student government because the stronger it is the more things we can ac complish," he stressed. Meier is a junior in Arts & Sciences and has a 5.7 average. He lives in Cather Hall and is a staffwriter for the Daily Nebraskan and historian of Palladian. Andy Taube stressed the fact that he is running for. both vice president and Senate. "I'm running," he said, "because I think I can implement my ideas best as vice president, but I am a sophomore and if I'm not elected vice president I would like to try and implement my ideas as a senator." Taube explained that he would like to make next year a stepping stone to the day when important issues will come up and the administration will say what does student government think about this or what does the Senate think we should do. He pointed out that this year's Coun cil has been bogged down with too much committee work to meet all the needs of the students of the University. Specific problems that Taube felt the Student As sociation should work on next year includ ed student parking, joining national stu dent associations, forming college advis ory boards and improving the Univer sity's counseling service. "Several student government commit tees such as the Nebraska Student Gov ernment or the Big Eight Student Govern ment committee need to be made a lot more effective," he pointed out. "I have some concrete ideas that I feel could be implemented and I think I could work with either of the two presi deatial candidates," he said. Taube is a sophomore in Arts & Sci ences and has a 6.7 average. He is sec retary of Sigma Chi Fraternity and as a present Student Council member he is chairman of the Peace Corps Committee. He is president of Phi Eta Sigma, IFC public relations chairman and holds a Regent's scholarship. problems. Bruce Eickhoff, freshman, said that there was no rea son why the senators couldn't keep in better contact with the different living units and find out the opinions, ideas and grievances of their con stituents. "Student government," said Andy Kaulins, freshman, "should work at improving the quality of professors and increasing t h e relationships of the students with the facul ty in general." Ron Pfeifer, freshman, mentioned an advisory board, but he also said that if he was elected he would try to in crease the recreational facil ities and work on the park ing problem. "I think we should look into problems such as the lighting on campus, nener saiu. ne also pointed out that the new government was going to take a lot of work.
