(Senate Committee Finds
Fewer Than 100 Students!
Taking Pass-Fail Courses
Less than 100 students
are making use of the Uni
versity's pass-fail system,
according to a study con
ducted by ASUN's Educa
tion committee,
The committee recently
used the University's com
puter facilities to determine
how many students are in- .
volved in the pass-fail pro
gram, Chairman Craig
Dreeszen said.
The data shows that 91
students are now enrolled in
at least one course on a
pass-or-fail basis. A further
break-down shows that over
two-third of these students
are senior and the rest are
juniors.

ers College is second with

Dreeszen expressed some
surprise at the statistics,
saying "there are not near
ly as many signed up as I
had expected."
He interpreted the low
turn-out to be a result of the
stringent require
ments placed upon pass-fail
courses. Students are pro
hibited from taking such
coursework to satisfy their
major, minor or group re
quirements, he pointed out,
and a number of depart
ments still hesitate to offer
pass-fail work.
He aid the fact that 91
students have enrolled in
the courses indicates that

there is "considerable stu

NEEDS ENLARGING
Comparing Nebraska's
Greek system to those
across the country, Miss
Kuester said she thought
the University has a good
system to work with and
only needs to be enlarged.
Miss Kuester accepted a
letter of national commen
dation given to Nebraska's
chapter of Panhellenic.
The award was based on
the successfulness of pro
grams sponsored by Pan
hellenic during the year,
cooperation with National
Panhellenic and Greek re
lationships on campus.

The highlight of the Uni
versity of Nebraska's first
homecoming weekend in
1912 was an informal ban
queta far cry from the
contemporary Homecoming
weekend.
Rallies, displays, fire
works, band concerts, bon
fires, tug-of-war contests,
reunions, parades, floats,
open houses and, of course,
football games have all
characterized the 45-year-old
history of Homecoming.
Fireworks and a band
concert were a part of the
1915 Homecoming. A year
later, Nebraska's football
team suffered its first home
coming loss.
In 1923 the campus boast
ed the first of what has
been a tradition ever since
Homecoming decorations.
These first displays, made
by sororities and fraterni
ties, were merely signs
welcoming alums.
By 1937, a restriction on
the maximum to be spent
on displays had been set at
$25. From their beginning
in 1923 the displays were a
ballooning production, with
the restriction on expendi
tures hiked to amounts of
$40, $50, $125, $150, $250,
and the current $350.
World War II, however,
caused a setback and a
limit of $7 was imposed.
Sororities and fraternities
in 1942 sent workers to can
vass homes and businesses
for scrap metal and crap
rubber. Awards were given
to those groups collecting
the most scrap and to those
having the best arrange
ment of scrap.
In 1943, the Innocents,
who had traditionally spon
sored the displays, turned
over their control to the
War Council because there
was only one Innocent.
The display tradition con
tinued in the 1950's with
awards given in two men's
divisions and one women's
division.
The bubble popped, how
ever. What was termed in
1937 as "fraternities and
sororities striving to outdo
each other in novel decora
tions" had reached its apex,
so in 1965 the display tra
dition was abandoned.
