Law College Research
enrollment in the Univer
sity College of Law has
nearly doubled in six years,
according to Dean Henry
M. Grether, Jr.
There are 240 students
enrolled, in contrast to 138
six years ago. The growth
is causing some problems
because of lack of staff, the
school's new dean said.
"This creates a par
ticularly difficult problem
because small classes are
vital to the teaching of
law," says Grether. "L a w
teaching cannot satisfactor
ily be accomplished by the
straight lecture method.
Legal education is not
based on a concept of mem
orization of thousands of
rules of law.
"Instead, law students
are trained in a process of
deductive thinking, which
requires a Socratic method
of teaching conducted by
questions and answers, ar
gument and discussion be
tween the professor and
students, and between stu
dents. "This technique obvious
ly becomes unworkable
when classes become too
large," he said.
But despite enrollment
problems, the college is
moving ahead with a vari-.
ety of programs.
Among them is the com
puter project, directed by
Prof. John M. Gradwohl.
The University Law College
is a pioneer in the use of
computerized statutes.
All 10 volumes of the Ne
braska statutes have been
put on magnetic tapes;
thus, with proper program
ming, the computer will
kick out, at 1,200 lines a
minute, each occurrence of
any word in the statutes, or
any group or combination of '
words either affirmatively
Senate To Elect 2 To Fill
Reapportionment Seats
Two senators from the
Graduate College will be
elected by the Student Sen
ate at Wednesday's meet
ing, which will be held in
the Norfolk Room of the Ne
braska Center on East Cam
pus. The senators are being
elected as a result of the
recent Student Court deci
sion on the reapportionment
carried out by the electoral
commission. In the reappor
tionment, three unfilled
Graduate College seats
were given to senators from
other colleges. This was de
cided by the court not to be
according to direct appor
tionment as called for in the
ASUN consitutlon.

Other uses of magnetic

Another Law College
project is the addition of
several senior seminars,
with about a dozen students
in each. Subject matter
planned for the seminars in
cludes unfair trade com
petition, recent U.S. Su
preme Court decisions,
m e d i c a 1-legal, business
planning, air-space 1 a w,
electronic data processing,
legal history and tax policy.
The Law College also
plans 12 sessions this school
year on proficiency in trial
advocacy. Under the chair
manship of Lincoln attor
ney Charles Noren, the Ne
braska Trial Attorneys As
sociation will cooperate
with the college in re-staging
actual cases from se
lection of jury to decision
before the students.
Doctors will help by ap
pearing as expert medical
witnesses. Bar Association
members will donate their
time. Students will be di
vided into two groups
plaintiffs and defendants
and will have a chance to
question witnesses.
"We'll make the trials as
realistic as possible,"
Grether said.
Also in the works is a
College of Law-School of

Also involving action re
sulting from the court's
case, the Senate will con
sider a motion made last
week by Sen. David Sen
seney that any suit filed in
any court involving reap
portionment of the senate,
must be filed in the semes
ter in which the reappor
tionment takes place.
If the Senate approves
this motion, it will insure
Mark Schrieber of retain
ing his seat on the senate.
There has been some ques
tion as to whether he should
be allowed to retain his seat
since there was a mistake
in the original apportion
ment carried out by the
senate last year.
The senate will also con
sider rules of procedure for
their meetings. These rules
will be presented by Sen.
John G e r 1 a c h , who was
chairman of the committee
to draw up such a set of
rules.
Also, a resolution calling
for Dead Week to be the
week before finals is ex
pected to be presented, and

mittee may report on the
progress of its investiga
tions. BOOKS

The ASUN library com
mittee will begin on the li
brary facilities at Nebraska.
The purpose of the sur
vey is to inform the cam
pus of the library situation
at the University.
According t o research
done by the Library Com
mittee, Nebraska is lagging
behind other universities in
the amount of their library
budget by several million
dollars.
The needed finances have
been requested by the Uni
versity in its $98.6 million
budget proposal. Of this
budget, $3.5 million is being
asked for the libraries. In
the past ten years, the pro
portion of the educational
budget devoted to library
purposes has declined from
3'4 to 2. The new pro
posal allots 32 to librar
ies. In 1965, the University li
braries spent only $21.93
per student for both books
and periodicals. This al
lowed only two books per
student to be purchased.
In comparison with 14
Pig 10 and Big 8 schools,
Nebraska rates 10th in the
number of volumes in the
library and twelfth in the
number of books purchased
per student.
Another problem is the
amount of time that li
braries are open. Nebras
ka's libraries are now open
for use 90 hours a week. In
the 1967-69 biennial budget,
it has been proposed that in

Big Man on Campus, Tom
Penney, and Activities
Queen, Rlimi Rose were
announced at the AUF-Beat
Dance Saturday.
Penney, a member of
Alpha Tau Omega frater
nity, was selected from a
group of " ten finalists by
popular vote of the students
attending the dance.
Miss Rose, Pi Beta Phi
sorority, was chosen from
a group of seven finalists
by an interviewing board.
Over a 1.000 tickets were
sold to the dance, Linda
Mahoney, AUF publicity
vice-president said.
The dance kicked-off the
annual AUF drive to solicit
funds from University stu
dents and faculty members
for five national charities.
the 1967 fall semester, the
libraries be kept open until
11 p.m. seven nights a
week.
The space available for
reading and for book stor
age is another problem that
is being considered. The
seating capacity of the li
braries on this campus is
about 10 of the student
body. This is below the mini
mum standard in most uni
versity libraries of 20
seating capacity.
According to John Wink
worth, chairman of the
ASUN committee, question
aires will be distributed to
students in the libraries on
both campuses Monday
through Saturday. These
questionaires will be short
answer, and will take very
little time to fill out. By
this method, the committee
will gain the opinions of
those people who actually
use the library.
A leadership opinion poll
is also being taken by the
committee. A group of
campus leaders has been se
lected and asked for ideas
and opinions on the prob
lems of the library system.
The information received
from these surveys will be
incorporated into the li
brary committee's report.
The committee is also
corresponding with state
senators until the University
budget comes up in the
spring. They will explain
the problems of our library
system and the need for
increased funds.

Cont. from Pg. 1, Col. 7
the Daily Nebraskan that he
usually incorporates campus
situations into his sermons to
appeal to the student congre
gation. He stressed that he tried to
take the attitude into consid
eration that the congregation
inside a University chapel is
an educated group and there
fore he attempts to use an
educated format in planning
sermons and make use of the
students' willingness to learn.
Since a service is primarily
for the purpose of worship, he
added, it is not necessary to
connect the service with the
University as such.
'Unafraid Of Humor'
The Rev. Mr. William Phil
lips of the United Campus
Christian Fellowship emphas
ised in his sermon Sunday
the importance of the indivi
dual in Christianity. He said
that without sincerity on the
part of the individual, any at
tempts made by the minister
and church to reach a true
faith are in vain.
One .student who attended
the service described its at
mosphere as "relaxed and
unafraid of humor."

The Rev. Mr. Alvin Peter- ;v
sen of the Lutheran Studetit'"v

of hands in faith between :

In a sermon entitled "Not ;,

"We can't go into the mon- "

A student attending the

"Rev. Petersen brings in
much more of what is going
on in the world around us.
He relates his sermons to
things which I can under- -stand,
and this makes me
think more about the things
about which he speaks."
Rev. Petersen explained
that he tries to relate his ser
mons to the student, not so
much by picking a specific
event and preaching about it,
but rather "by dealing in a
general way with the prob
lems of student life."
