Wednesday, October 19, 1966 The Daily Nebraskan Page 3 Off Campus Costs High And Leadership Suffers "It's cheaper!" That's the cry of University women students who prefer off campus housing to dormi tories. But is it? An answer to this often debated question Is found In a master's thesis com pleted this summer by Miss Mary Whan, graduate student in the Department of , Family Economics and Management. The answer is "no", if housing costs are consid ered. In her sample of 1966 Nebraska coeds living on and off campus, Miss Whan found that off-campus stu dents spent an average of $45 a month for housing and utilities, while dorm stu dents spent only $28. Daily Costs Average daily costs for every other item except food were higher for off-campus students, the study showed, however, the lesser amount spent on food was offset by other expenses, and o f f campus students tended to eat less adequate meals. The University, in ac cord with its attempts to stabalize student room and board fees for three-year periods, has kept the cost at $725 per year since 1964. The fee is expected to in crease. Records for last semes ter show that of 3,647 un dergraduate, single women at the University, 2,366 lived in dormitories and sorori ties. The study was limited to full-time junior and seni or women of whom 1,184 were enrolled last semester. Of these, 109 lived in apart ments. "Parents who face the cost of dormitory expenses and who help their young sters decide where to live must ask themselves if an apartment is really cheap er," noted Dr. Dorothy La rery, chairman of the De partment of Family Eco nomics and Management, who supervised the re search.

"They should also consid er that girls in apartments ate less balanced meals, and that they had fewer chances for leadership which is a part of a college education," she said. Objectives of Miss Whan's study, other than to com pare costs, were to deter mine if use of time varies with living locationl if par ticipation in campus organ izations is affected, and the extent of satifaction each group of women receives from the use they make of their time, interests, and money. Apartment dwellers often believe they are saving money, but Miss Whan's research shows they spend more for household items such as light bulbs and newspapers, telephone ser vice, and have larger out standing charge accounts for gasoline, clothing and leisure-time activities. How ever, these differences are not statistically significant. The food bill is less for off-campus coeds, but Miss Whan questioned whether as a result of economizing, Toaslmaster Club To Be Organized The Ag Exec Board, Wild life Club, and Lincoln Toast master Club 2747 are coop erating in the formation of a University Toastmaster Club. The organizational meet ing of the club will take place on Tuesday, Oct. 18, 7 p.m., in the C. Y. Thomp son Library. Membership is open to all University students. Inter ested prospective members should contact Craig Drees zen. The purpose of Toastmas ter Club, according to Dreeszen is to learn, "toast mastering, parliamentary procedure, extemporaneous speaking, and the study of preparation and delivery of speeches." 466-2023 FOR SALE IWi4 Corvette. 200 Actual Miles, Only W0O0. 4M-7401. 45 Withtrbet Blvd. 1861 Corvalr eonvtrtibla. 4 speed excel lent mechanical condition. 4BD-42S1 titer 4:30.

Preferably Prt-Mtd, Pro Vtt, Pro-Dontol A-4 SMALL ANIMAL HOSPTIAL 2710 South St. 4234912 women in apartments were eating less adequate meals than those living in dorms. The women in her survey kept a" record of all food eaten for four days. . Eating Habits Although neither group had a completely adequate diet based on the "Basic Four" food groups, girls in apartments ate less well than dorm students, and al so ate fewer fruits and vege tables. Do women in apartments sacrifice free time for oth er activities? Both groups got approximately the same amount of rest and studied the same number of hours. However, off-campus stu dents spent more time on household activities such as cleaning, preparing food, and shopping, and less time on personal activities such as dressing and letter writ ing. No great difference was found between the two groups in the amount of time spent working or on pleasure activities, although dorm students spent more time with church or com munity events, or dating. Since students living in ' apartments often spend less time on campus, Miss Whan wondered if they participate less in University activities and hold fewer leadership positions. Participation She found this supposition to be true as just over half of the off-campus students said they did not partici pate in campus sponsored organizations, compared to 28 per cent of the dorm students. Only two off-campus students held offices in any organization while 16 (45 per cent) of the dorm students held offices. The extra costs, less free time, and less contact with the University are apparent ly compensated for in the independence apartment dwellers feel. This group expressed a greater amount of satisfaction from their use of time, money, and in terests than the dorm stu dents. Only one of the 30 off campus students said she would prefer other living arrangements, while 12 of the dorm coeds said they would like to try apartment life. However, almost 60 per cent of the dorm residents said they preferred their way of living.

Tatum spoke on conscien tious objection at the Univer sity Tuesday night, sponsored by Students for a Democratic Society (SDS). In his presentation, Tatum noted the changing character of the average conscientious objector by citing the "swell among the unchurched who are applying fdr CO classifi cation." Presently, aside from t h e normal pacifist religious groups, there has been a large percentage of Roman Catholics applying as consci entious objectors, according to Tatum. This change in character, plus the growing peace move ment within U.S. armed forces, makes the conscien tious objector today a real political factor for the first time in history, according to Tatum. He continued to say that be cause conscientious objection is now a political factor, it "increases the danger some what." Tatum said that on the whole the length of jail sen tences for non-cooperation is going ua. Come In 1962 a jail sentence for interest, is another course the non-cooperation was under conscientious objector may two years. Presently a sen- take. . tence runs approximately two Non-cooperation, ' which in and a half years.
