Professor Staff'
The class schedule hooks for next semester reveal
more than the fact that the new system of registration is
not working as well as expected.
THE SPACE ALLOTED for the instructor's name is
more frequently than ever before replaced by the anony
mous word "staff." Staff must be a busy professor he
teaches more than half of the course sessions offered at
the University.
The use of the ambiguous word defies every effort on
the student's part to use any other method than chance
to ge the professor he would like for a particular course.
We can understand that some use of Professor Staff
might be necessary in planning a class schedule for 15,000
students.
HOWEVER, THE OVER-USE of that sometimes brilli
ant, sometimes challenging, often disgustingly poor Pro
fessor Staff is undoubtedly a convenient crutch. By replac
ing professors' names with "staff" the challenging pro
fessor will not have an overflowing first session, and those
the students have black-named by the still effective student
; grapevine will not face empty seats.
Student Senate is admirably working for an effective
faculty evaluation booklet which would be made available
to the students. However there will be no need to print
such a book if more and more of the professors are hidden
behind the anonymous title of "staff." There will be no
way to identify those recommended much less those who
are not recommended.
THE SITUATION can not become much worse. Stu
dents should expect to chose not only the section, the time
and the room, but also, and perhaps most important of
all, the professor who will teach the course.
We expect a reversal of the movement toward burden
ing Professor Staff the sooner the better.

MEN-IF ANYONE ASKS,
After reviewing the se
mester's Student Senate ac
tivities, one finds a single
really noteworthy thing . . .
the split between Student
Senate and the Faculty
Senate. A breach, due in
no small part, to the Facul
ty Evaluation Book and now
the demand by Student Sen
ate that Christmas Vacation
be extended to allow for
travel time from Miami.
It seems strange that this
split has developed. On the
majority cf college cam
puses these two groups are
allied, but here at Nebraska
this alliance for progress is
lacking. Chalk up another
oddity for the giant Corn
husker. Rumor has it that AWS,
a sort of compulsory girls
club on campus, has found
a solution for its problem
with closing hours. The so
lution, agreed on after
years of debate is to have
senior girls vote in a cam
pus wide election, and

Story
Dignity, Image
Dear Editor:
Regarding: 1 November
issue of the Daily Nebras
kan, on the affairs of state
of "Chicken Charlie", "Nig
ger Joe", "Old Man Mill
er". It is indeed, very sad
that a city the -size of Lin
coln, which is reputely one
of the major ecclesiastical
ly influenced "Edens", to
have such an article written
on an ordained minister.
One would think that be
ing in the very core of the
"Mystic Bible Belt", that
such a brazen show of hy
pocrisy would appall, shock
and even more so, castigate
the image of the clergy. We
speak to you of images, be
cause if nothing else, your
article deals with images.
What would seem to some
of you as just another "tra
ditional coons tale", is in
fact, a personal affront to
the man himself, the Negro
populace, as well as t h e
clergy.
In the words of Job, 27th
Chapter, 8th Verse; "For
what is the hope of t h e
hypocrite, though he hath
gained, when God taketh
away his soul? It is indeed
a paradox that such verse
so adequately describes this
"God Fearing" community.
Also, it is especially inter
esting to find that college
students have time in be
tween their studies to rob
old men of their personal
belongings. Perhaps, not
much thought has been giv
en to the seemingly 1 o w
station in life of Reverend
Miller, but I ask you, at
what station in life would
you rate the stealing of
tools, snow shovels and
chickens?
I do not intend to stand
in judgement of your intent
m printing the story, but I
do question whether the
presentation was really the
wajyjew i jsjupposed,.to faeiT;.:
published f err public con
sumption. Certainly, some
thought should be given to
the manner of handling the
subjects that you consider
news.

mention the absense of pro

haps, this "straight laced",

it clear that if we all shall

govern all of mankind, not

It's official now. I'm no longer
045525, but (let me see, what did I do with
that card?) 506-58-7763. It's fortunate I'm
going to graduate; I'll never learn that
number.
At least I had presumed I would grad
uate, with any amount of luck. Since I've
seen the new schedule book, however, I'm
beginning to feel that perhaps this was
youthful optimism. I had a nasty, dark
suspicion that something was going to go
awry when I started the whole registra
tion business, but I put it down to my
morbid disposition.
I was right the first time. They of
fered most of the courses I wanted to
take at 10:30 on Tuesday-Thursday. In the
history department, I put down one course
and two, yes two, alternates. With unerr
ing accuracy, they are not offering any
one of the three.
Furthermore, I can't get any sym:
pathy over my problems. When I start to
expound, I say, "Well, I don't have any
classes until 10:30 on any day. . Then
the person I'm expounding at snarls,
"What's so bad about that? I've got 7:30
classes every day, classes through both
"the "lunch and dinner hours, and a lab
on Saturday afternoon."
My main complaint is that I'm going
to have to go through drop-and-add. which
is only slightly less complicated than
getting into the CIA. First, you have to

Not Fan, But...
Dear Editor
I'm not a basketball fan
but I was very impressed
with our team's first game.
They showed some real
style, and a will to win that
has sometimes been lack
ing in past years.
Their schedule is fairly
strenuous. Fans should have
an opportunity to see some
real basketball played this
year.
There is probably no more
difficult an endeavor than
to follow a successful sport
and a successful season
such as our Cornhuskers ex
perienced. I just hope our basketball
team continues with the
zeal they have begun the
season with. Nebraskans
can be proud of the basket
ball team too.

Unfair
Dear Editor:
One thing seems to come
to my mind concerning the
new pre-registration scheme
presently being employed
by University officials.
The University was found
ed in an effort to help the
state's young people to fur
ther their education. On this
respect I feel that the Uni
v e r s i t y administrators
should be obliged to help
ing these people complete
their education rather than
the hindrance of such.
On this light it is evident
istration system is actually
a deterrent to the large
number of people who at
tend the University and who
through necessity are obli
gated to spend their non
academic moments doubl
ing as a wage-earner there
Nmr
find your advisor, who usually disappears
without a trace.
Then, there's the rest of the signatures
you need, which means you have to an
swer at least one seemingly irrelevant
question at each of three different spots:
Are all your group A requirements
finished? What is your mother's maiden
name? Are you going to be working? When
did you enter the University? Finally, you
go to pull the cards you need, and are
faced by two possibilities: a) they're ail
gone for the course you wanted; b) no
body has ever heard of the course you
want and can't find the cards.
They've changed the registration pro
cess almost every semester since I've
been here, and while it is no doubt in
creasingly efficient, I have come to the
conclusion that there is no such thing as
a perfect class schedule. Either you can't
get the classes or the instructors you want,
or you end up with classes at 3:30 on
M-W-F and 5 on Tuesdays.
Why don't they just revise the whole
thing, so we could choose our classes by
pure chance? We could draw cards blind
folded from an enormous pile on the facul
ty parking lot, with concessions stands
and a combo while you waited. Or do it
formally, using a roulette wheel and
everyone dressed in tuxedos and long for
mals. Who knows, maybe I'd even graduate
that way.

For The Few
Dear Editor:
Re: The idea of a library.
It is my understanding
that though this country of
fers education to the many
it has always been the few
who excelled, and that it
was never the design of this
theory nor that of respons
ible institutions to discour
age excellence.
If, then, there are those
who, in an effort to excell,
found themselves unable to
vacation over Thanksgiving
and instead spent the time
at their studies, it is they
who should be encouraged
and it is for them as well
as the holy many that this
school and its library exist.

You pays your money and
you takes your choice, Tom

over the break that which
they came here to do have
made theirs and you havei
made yours4.
The university is here for
both of you and it exists for
the pursuit of learning. You
will pardon it, sir, if it
doesn't take time but from
that endeavor to ask one
Mr. Renna which days he

plans to work so that it may
know just when it should
follow this pursuit and when
it should not.
