Faculty Studies Means
To Aid Total Education
EDITOR'S NOTE: This
is the conclusion of a four
part series by Senior Staff
Writer Julie Morris con
cerning the concept of total
education and its applica
tion on the University cam
pus. It is the concern and in
volvement with students by
many University profes
sors "that gives this insti
tution quality," according to
Vice Chancellor G. Robert
Ross.
"There are many faculty
members who are spending
much time individually with
students in small groups.
The point, is, you or I don't
read about this or hear
much about it," Ross said.
Building a faculty-student
relationship that would con
tribute to a student's total
education "may be harder
in some areas, but also
Libraries Requested
To Lengthen Hours
The Student Senate
passed a resolution Wednes
day asking that the librar
ies remain open in the eve
ning hours during the first
three weekends of Janu
ary (the scheduled time of
finals.)
John Winkworth, chair
man of the ASUN Library
committee and the origina
tor of the resolution, ex
plained that the three
weekends could serve as a
trial period towards getting
the library open every
weekend evening.
"The committee wouldn't
have presented the resolu
tion unless we had gotten
some support in this area.
In the questionnaire we cir
culated among students, 88
per cent stated that they
were in favor of the library
remaining open on Friday
and Saturday evenings,"
Winkworth explained.
"In addition, individuals
connected with the library
have stated that they felt
our resolution had a good
chance for acceptance. If
the students show enough
interest in the additional
evening hours, then we will
have our foot ia the door
towards getting it a per
manent policy."
Winkworth presented an
other resolution which
asked that the senate sup
port the proposed budget of
APO Plans
Text Trade
In January
The Alpha P h i Omega
exchange has been tenta
tively scheduled for Jan. 16
through Feb. 3, according to
APO president Larry
Fiehn.
The book exchange is the
student answer to low
prices paid for returned
books by university book
stores, according to Fichn.
"Usually you can sell
your old textbooks for more
than the bookstore will pay,
and buy textbooks with less
expense than at the book
store," Fiehn said.
Students take books into
the exchange, which is held
in the South Party rooms in
the Union, mark the price
i they desire on the book, and
5 purchase books for second
semester, in effect from fel
low students.

Alpha Phi Omega charges
ten cents a book for band

The ASUN Bookstores
Committee, headed by Rich
Thompson, is providing sup

exchange.

harder for some students,"
Ross said.
There are many things be
ing done on this campus in
an effort to provide an at
mosphere in which a stu
dent may achieve "total
education," the education
which "develops in man the
best understanding of him
self and of the world around
him," according to the
A S U N, Student Conduct
Committee.
Ross said there is a fa
culty committee, led by
Vice Chancellor Merk Hob
son, which has been study
teaching techniques that
may be applied here.
Ross said the committee
has discussed the possibility
of "language houses" in
which students studying a
certain language would live
and speak the language. He
said the committee has al-
the University libraries in
the budget request of t h e
University for the 1967-68
biennium. The s e n a t e ap
proved the resolution.
Margo McMaster, chair
man of the Activities com
mittee, reported on some
of its projects. She ex
plained that the committee
has two general areas of
interest; one is working
with the Student Activities
Office and the other is
working on projects the
committee itself determines
to be worthy of its action.
In connection with the
Activities Office, the com
mittee is working on the
annual revision of the cam
pus handbook and a letter
explaining the contents of
the handbook and stressing
the importance of activities
to be sent to new students.
Projects which the com
mittee is taking on at its
own initiative are the writ
ing of letters to living units
urging participation in ac
tivities and planning an ac
tivities seminar prior to the
activities mart.
Sen. Cheryl Adams re
ported on the Big Eight
Student Government Con
vention held at the Univer
sity last weekend. She said
that this was the first time
that all eight schools were
in attendance at a conven
tion. "In the presidents' (of
the eight student govern
ments) council on Friday,
it was discussed whether or
not the BESGA should be
continued. However, after
the programs for next year
were determined, it was
decided that it was worth
while for BESGA to con
tinue," Miss Adams stated.
A report on the Book
stores committee was also
given. Rich Thompson,
chairman of the committee
stated that his committee's
activities for the past se
mester have been aimed at
finding solutions to the
problems that last year's
committee found.
"These problems deal
with the high prices of new
and used books that must
be paid by the student. The
student is at the mercy of
the bookstores. He has lit
tle or no market power. He
is disorganized and has no
control over the practices
of the bookstores," he de
clared. In new business, Thomp
son presented a motion
calling for ASUN endorse
ment of the Alpha Phi Ome
ga book exchange to be
held at the beginning of sec
ond semester.
After some discussion on
the need for such an en
dorsement to be made in
the form of a motion wheth
er or not the motion would
have any effect, the reso
lution was passed by the
senate.
so explained the set up of
"group living" used at oth
er schools where a group of
students live in the same
building and attend the
same classes. The idea of
the system is to give stu
dents a feeling of closeness
in a large school.
Ross said the faculty
members have also dis
cussed providing a curricu
lum for students who
haven't decided on their
majors that would give the
students a wider range of
subjects.
Another proposal con
cerns revamping the facul
ty adviser system for up
perclassmen, Ross said, be
cause many students and
faculty are dissatisfied with
the system.
The Student Bill of
Rights, proposed by the
ASUN Student Conduct
committee, will "hopefully
be a big step in accomplish
ing total education," Kris
Bitner, a committee mem
ber, said.
Dick Sehulze, chairman
of the committee, said the
Bill of Rights "will be a
step toward encouraging
students to assess them
selves in the University
community" and give them
the impetus to truly devel
op themselves as individ
uals. Larsen Is
A Worker'
Says Letter
A letter nominating Gary
Larsen for "Outstanding Ne
braskan" has been received
in the Daily Nebraskan of
fice citing his "outstanding
ability to inspire those who
work with him as well as be
ing a tremendous worker
himself."
Letters will be accepted
in the Daily Nebraskan of
fice until Noon Dec. 15. Two
"Outstanding Nebraskan"
one student and one faculty
member, will be named in
the Dec. 19 issue of the pa
per. Other nominations to date
include Polly Rhynalds,
Cathie Shattuck and Dr.
Peter Wolfe.
Larsen, the letter contin
ues, is currently serving as
both FIC president and
president of the Innocents
Society as well as maintain
ing a 4.2 grade average.
"One can only use super
latives when talking about
Gary," the letter notes. For
instance he is coascientious,
modest, far-sighted and tru
ly concerned with the prob
lems on the University cam
pus." A former chairman of the
Corn Cobs Homecoming
committee and past presi
dent of Beta Sigma Psi,
Larsen has served as IFC
affairs chairman and was
selected "Outstanding Col
legiate Man" last spring.
This fall he was finalist for
Prince Kosmet.
His scholastic "excellence
is shown through not only
his expectionally high grade
point average, but his mem
bership in Theta Nu and Phi
Eta Sigma honoraries," the
nomination said.
"Both academics and ac
tivities have benefited from
Gary's presence on campus
and that d&scription ap
plies to very few people,"
the letter states.

Joint System To Govern

Abel and Sandoz Halls have

with the "overwhelming ap
proval" of students from both
dormitories, according to Ab
el president Wayne Morton.
Morton said that a scries of
amendments have been
passed to enable Sandoz to
participate in the constitution
Abel residents set up last
year. The new system gov
erns nearly 1,500 students.
The executive council now
includes 10 cabinet officers,
12 Abel presidents and 8 San
doz presidents. Morton said
that the original officers will
carry over until April elec

now has two vice presidents,

positions of publicity and

There will be interviews
next week for these positions.
No name has yet been chos
en for the new government,
and Morton said that recom
mendations are welcome.
According to Morton, the
new system will produce a
"more dynamic government"
and tap larger resources of
"people, talent and money."
The budget of the new gov
ernment will run between
seven and eight thousand dol
lars. He predicted that potential
problems might be the length
of time for the organization to
effectively function and the
need for communications ex

fessors and Instructors, re
spectively. Soshnik said the Big Eight
generally lags behind other
colleges in salary pay and
said there is a gap of about
$1,500 between Nebraska's
pay for faculty and the na
tional over-all average.
Morrison questioned the
validity of the statistics pre
sented, citing an Omaha
World-Herald survey which
showed Nebraska ranked sec
ond in the Big Eight in facul
ty pay.
"I believe we have not kept
up with our sister states in
terms of state tax appropria
tions" for higher education.
Soshnik said.
Vice Chancellor Merk Hob
son, Dean of Faculties, told
the state officers that by any
basis of comparison, Nebras
ka falls short in the provi
sions made for libraries.
Hobson said the University
would like to take advantage
of technological develop
ments in handling library re
sources and materials, but
the school first needs the mon
ey lor the equipment needed
in these programs.
Dean Cecil Wittson of the
College of Medicine said the
University is faced with in
creasing needs for full-time
faculty and places for stu
dents who enroll in the col
lege. He said the college also
aids in helping medical per
sonnel across the state keep
up to date in their fields.
The University has sub
mitted an operational budget
request of .W8.6fi2.406 million
for the l7-69 biennium,
which begins July 1.
Of the total, the Universi
ty hopes $67,019,893 will come
from the state general fund
of tax revenues. Other
sources, such as student tui
tion, will provide the remain
ing funds. The University has
also submitted a capital con
struction budget request of
$32.6 million.

FM Money Raising
Begins If Approved
University of Nebraska Stu
dent Broadcasting Committee
(UNSBC) will meet with the
Regents Dec. 19 to seek ap
proval for the incorporation of
a University FM radio sta
tion. If the Regents approve the
project, an FM station will be
Incorporated immediately and
the UNSBC will begin a fund
raising drive to finance the
station, Bob Wilson, a com
mittee member said.
The committee released a
statement this week to Uni
versity living units outlining
the rational and structure of
the proposed station.
The statement claims that
a "student-to-student non
commercial FM station pro
grammed by student for a
University audience" would
help to solve the "commun
ications gap" which exists in
the University.
Because the FM station
would be noncommercial, the
station can afford to broad
cast "less than popular pro
grams without the fear of the
rating or a perturbed spon
sor," the statement continues.
The broadcasting format
will include original works,
special interviews, campus
political opinion, live concerts
and perhaps unknown literary
and musical talent.
The statement notes that
this approach to broadcasting
is "not unfounded." The Fed
eral Communications Com
mission has set aside a por
tion of the FM band for sta
tions, such as the proposed
University radio station, and
encourages educational FM
stations.
The committee will apply
for a class D FCC FM license,
which is "a specifically de
' signated license for non-profit,
non-commercial educational
stations," the statement says.
If incorporated the FM sta
tion will operate under ten
watts, a power sufficient . to
cover both city and east cam
pus and adjoining areas.
The UNSBC hopes to locate
the proposed station in the Ne
braska Union.

Student Support
Boosts Survival
Of Speech Forum
Hyde Park's chances to
continue next semester look
better after an increase in
audience participation last
week, according to Larry
Grossman, chairman of Ne- .
braska Union Talks and
Topics committee.
Grossman had stated last
week that because of poor -attendance
at the Thursday -free
speech forum, his com-
mittee could decide to drop
sponsorship of Hyde Park.
He had said that the forum
would be held until Christ
mas on a trial basis.
However, Grossman
noted that last week's ses
sion was encouraging, and
he renewed his personal
pledge to continue Hyde"
Park next semester.
In an effort to encourage
speakers, the committee is 7
following various student
suggestions. A microphone
will soon be placed in the
audience to make question
ing of speakers easier. Al
so, Grossman added that a
podium would be provided
for the speakers.
Hyde Park will be held
Thursday at 3:30 p.m. in
the Nebraska Union lounge
as usual.
