ASUN Liaison, Research Study
Reveals Taxed Facilities, Faculty
Rapid enrollment in
creases have strained the
limits of both faculty and
facilities, according to a
study by the ASUN Legis
lative Laison and Research
committee.
The survey states that It
"was not meant to be com
prehensive," but attempts
to "point out some of the
problems caused by ex
panding enrollments and
relatively shrinking b u d g
ets in departments which
are by no means unique."
University enrollment has
grown from 8,711 in 1960 to
17,051 this year.
The committee contacted
political science, history,
economics and agronomy
and the College of Engi
neering and Architecture.
Out Of Market
Dr. Dudley Bailey, chair
man of the English depart
ment, said that, "If the
salary scale gets up, we
are hopeful of adding to the
staff," but that last year
the department found itself
"1,000 dollars out of the
market" in recruiting.
Bailey said that in his
department upperclass en
r o 1 1 m e n t increases had
been ahead of general Uni
versity increases.
In some areas, parti
cularly American liter

deep sense of partial aliena

citizen and individual, and
without both liberation and

"It is against the above

available.
Bailey told the com
mittee, "We need to add
substantially to o u r profes
sorial staff."
He said that the key to
this addition was on the ap
proval or rejection of his
budget requests.
Hold The Line
Chairman of the political
science department Carl J.
Schneider said that it has
been difficult to "hold the
line" of enrollment of 100
and 200-level courses.
The addition of more
sections means the addi
tion of staff members or
the subtraction of another
course, Schneider said. He
added that he has been try
ing to fill two faculty spots
for two years and an addi
tional opening has been
added.
Schneider said t9at Poli
Sci 10 courses now fill the
300-seat Social Sciences
auditorium. He said that
the adddition of a section
next semester may be im
possible because there isn't
another instructor.
He added that instructors
are used at the 100 level at
the expense of the 200 level
and graduate courses.
Schneider also said that
his department was about
$1,000 out of the salary
market. lie told the com
mittee that in order to be
competitive with other uni
being fought h e r e at sever
al different levels. There is
a struggle to build and de
stroy infrastructures in
each of some 16,000 ham
lets. There are squad and
platoon-sized engagements
between local guerillas and
government militia, called
Popular Forces. There are
terrorist bombings at lux
ury hotels and in peasant
markets.
The Viet Cong are trying
to build up troop concentra
tions while avoiding pitched
battles in the rich Mekong
Delta. Government leaders,
largely through the inter
mediate agency of U.S.
Special Forces, are not try
ing to win the loyalty of the
Central Highland Montag
nards, who are generally
looked down upon by all
Vietnamese, commu
nist and non-communist.
South of the Demilitarized
zone- full-fledged conven
tional battles rage between
batallions (roughly 1,000
men each) of American
Marines and North Vietna
mese regulars. "Pacifica
tion" cadres from one side
or the other are at work in
every one of South Viet
Nam's 42 provinces.
The struggle has now
spilled well beyond the bor
ders of South Viet Nam
and has become, in effect,
a regional war. Anti-government
activity is reported
increasing in Laos, north
eastern Thailand, and even
Burma, while the Hanoi
government claims North
Viet Nam is about to be in
vaded. Schedules Out
With Blank Pages
An undetermined number
of second semester schedule
books have been printed
with 10 to 15 blank pages,
according to the office of
the dean of student affairs.
Students who have re
ceived such books should
notify the dean of student
affairs office and pick up
another book from the in

versities, the department
needs a "Latin American
man. an Asia man, a Public
Administration man and a
quantitative analysis man."
Schneider said that his
budget requests included
areas "we have to get into
if we are going to be a
respectable department and
in order not to short-change
our students."
National Shortage
Dr. J. A. Rawley, chair
man of the history depart
ment, said that there was a
current national shortage of
qualified history teachers. .
He told committee mem
bers that the department
lost four top instructors last
year and is not offering
courses now in Japanese,
history, Renaissance history
and United States diplomat
ic history.
Rawley entered the prob
lem of facilities, citing
shortage of classroom and
office space. He also listed
the limited resources of the
library.
Both Bailey and Rawley
reported a shortage of sec
retaries, with only two for
nearly 100 instructors in the
English department and
one full-and two part-time
secretaries in history.
While enrollment in the
department of economics
has increased 42 per cent
since 1962-63, only one staff
professor has been added in

This, then, is your simple

any other kind.
What is going on here
has two sides, in every us

fense of freedom against
terror and tyranny from
without. It is a total war.

Uses Assistants
Dr. Wallace Peterson,
head of the department,
stated that the department
now depends on graduate
assistants for much of the
faculty chores.
Peterson said that enroll
ment increases are "espec
cially critical" in specific
courses such as Econom
ics 11, now taught largely
by TV.
Statistics, Econ 15, en
larged sections to 100 peo
ple utilizing graduate in
structors. Dr. Peterson told
the committee that these
sections were too large for
effective teaching jn this
course.
Laboratory facilities in
the College of Engineering
and Architecture are suffer
ing because of enrollment
. increases, according to Dr.
John Davis.
Davis said that a quota
system has already been
set up in the college. Only
32 per cent of last year's
freshman class passed on to
sophomore status.
Enrollment Rise
The number of student
credit hours in the depart
ment of agronomy has ris
en from 3.473 in 1964-65 to
a projected minimum of
5,000 for 1968-69.
Dr. Francis Hasklns, de
partment chairman, said
that a few lab instructors
but no professors have been
added since 1964-65.
Classroom space is so
acute, Dr. Haskins report
ed, that soon only the de
partment auditorium can
accomodate certain classes.
He said that limits had to
be set on upperclass courses
this year and that the staff
is spending more time on
teaching than in research.
Additional projects are on
the line tvhen the legisla
ture reviews the b u d g e t.
Bailey said that federal
funds supporting a curricu
lum research center end
this year calling for budget
funds.
Bailey also said that ad
ditional English library fa
cilities were needed, since
"out laboratory is the li
brary." Schneider said that he
had requested funds for a
Bureau of Government re
search which would study
Nebraska and local prob
lems, serving the state.
Schneider said that the
equipment budget of $55 a
year has not increased in
over five years.
The ASUN committee
termed this report part of
its "continuing effort for
the passage of the Univer
sity budget."
It adds that the enroll
ment increases have result
ed in hardships placed on
the University "to continue
a quality program of in
struction while working
with inadequate beguetary
support."

Schreiber assumed the va

In the Senseney vs. Tooley
case of Oct. 2, it was dis
covered t h a t a mathema
tical error on the part of
the election commission had
resulted in the assignment
of an extra seat to Arts and
Sciences.
Under the current sys
tem, the election commis
sion rounds off figures to
the nearest hundredth. In
assigning representztion,
the commission had discov
ered that Arts and Sciences
were entitled to 8.52 Senate
seats, or nine senators.
Council Sete
Hearing On
Drink Policy
The Lincoln City Council
will hold a public hearing
on the liquor-by the drink
policy at 1:30 p.m. Monday,
in the Council chambers.
City Councilman John.
Comstock said that the
hearing it open to anyone
who wishes to attend, in-,
eluding college students.
Council members decided
on the hearing to give the
public a chance to tell the
Council what type of liquor
by -the -drink policy it
would like to see in Lincoln.
Lincolnites approved li-quor-by-the-drink
by a 25,
709 to 20,840 vote in the Nov.
8 election.
Representatives of the
United Church Women, Lin
coln Beer Dealer's Assn.,
package stores and bottle
clubs are expected to speak
at the hearing.
On and off sale beer tav
erns, bottle clubs, non-profit
clubs, package liquor stores
and persons now without
any type of state license
have already applied for
Class C liquor licenses in
Lincoln.
Among other Nebraska
cities with liquor-by-the-drink,
Omaha has 471 Class
C license holders, Grand Is- ,
land 35 and North Platte 21.
It was discovered as a rt
suit of the Senseney case
that the correct figuro
should have been 8.48 Sen
ate seats, or eight senators.
According to these figures,
Colleges of Arts and Sci
ences has one more senator
than it deserves.
In bringing the case to
court, ASUN President Ter
ry Schaaf emphasized that
there was no personal in
tention against Schreiber.
He said he wanted the court
to make a decision about
what should be done to re
solve the problem.
Should the case be settled
in favor of ASUN, no special
election would be held in.

would be selected by Inter
