Evaluation Committee Finds . .
Senate Awareness
Is Essential Factor
Student dissatisfac
tion with present ASUN Senate-
action has been termed
- the main impetus to the for
mation of the present study
on ASUN districting, ac
cording to Bruce Bailey,
chairman of the ASUN ex
ecutive committee to eval
uate election systems.
"Senators should be
aware of the students' needs
in order to be a represen
tative bod y," Bailey ex
plained. Bailey said that to ac
complish this goal a differ
ent system of districting is
not necessarily the only an
swer. He felt that if Sena
tors would confer with
leaders of IDA, IFC, and
Panhellenic they wiuld have ,
a better sampling of stu
dent views.

first meeting Tuesday after

Senior Staff Writer
Nebraskans outside of
Omaha appear willing to
help finance the higher edu
cation of thousands of stu
dents at the currently mu
nicipal University of Oma
ha. According to University
of Nebraska Regent B. N.
Greenberg of York, there is
no vocal outstate objection
to the proposed merger of
NU and the University of
Omaha.
The merger, which will be
voted on Tuesday by Oma
hans, would make OU the
University of Nebraska at
Omaha, and would put it
under state control and fi
nancing. BEST EDUCATION
"I would say the people
in Nebraska are all inter- ,
ested in the best possible
education for students,"
Greenberg said Thursday in
a telephone interview. "I
have heard no objection out
in this part of the state."
More students will have
an opportunity to go to
school if the merger is ap
proved by the Omahans.
Greenberg said.

lined their intentions for the
forthcoming report. Their
intentions are threefold: to
define "representative," to
accrue the limits of a rep
resentative'' system on the
ASUN level, and to verify
the number if people that
ASUN affects.
"The foremost question in
my mind is are we, the stu
dents, really being repre
sented under our present
ASUN Senate?" Bailey
stated.
Presently the Regents, ad
ministration, and faculty try
to sample student opinion
but, according to Bailey,
Senators do not.
The committee chairman,
however, emphasized that
his committee was in
terested and definitely did
want students to make their
opinions known on the sub
ject of redisricting.
Greenberg: NU-OU
The combination of the
two schools was approved
last April by the Nebraska
Unicameral and the merger
requires only the consent of
the city of Omaha to be ef
fected. Greenberg also foresaw
"cooperated efforts by the
two schools in many areas
libraries, printing, ad
vanced education and the
integration of the two edu
cational television systems."
The head of the Unicam
eral's Legislative Study
Committee on Higher Edu
cation, Sen. John E. Knight
of Lincoln, agreed that there
will be advantages to the
merger, although he antici
pates problems that could
have been avoided.
"I opposed it (the mer
ger) to begin with," Knight
said Thursday, "because we
need a coordinating 'body
first."
COORDINATION
During the last session of
the legislature he proposed
the creation of a commis
sion to coordinate the activi
ties of Nebraska's Universi
ties and colleges. The mea
sure, LB661, was defeated,
but the study committee
was created.
"I think this was back
wards," he said. "But after
the merger became a legis
lative fact, 1 think it should

Over $10,000 worth of mer

projects on the University
campus this year.
These include work the
YWCA does with Head Start
and the Malone Community
Center, Girls' Club, Y-Teen
Advisors, and tutoring for
foreign students' wives.
"We place the emphasis
on geting unique items for
relatively inexpensive pri
ces' Miss Kuester said.
Prices range from 15 cents
to $15 and average 13 to $5.
Articles have been im
ported for the bazaar from
Italy, Scandinavia, Germa
ny, the Near East, Africa
and Spain. All merchanidse
will be displayed accord
ing to geographic area.
The chairman said items
will range from Spanish
and African earrings to toys
to practical household
goods.

Knight said that if OU is
not merged with NU, the
Omaha school may continue
to "press" to become the
state's second state univer
sity. But, with the merger,
some advantages can be ob
tained, he indicated.
DEVELOPMENT
"I would expect the two
campuses to work together
in developing a metropolitan
resident campus in Oma
ha," Knight said, "and
working with the University
of Nebraska at Lincoln in
developing a total program
including the exchange of
faculty members."
The "University of Nebras
ka at Omaha would possibly
develop special colleges, ex

1925, he earned his M.S. de
gree at Nebraska Univer

like that at the present Uni
versity of Nebraska, he
said.
On the other hand, Knight
said that there would be
problems because of the
swift merger of the schools.
NO GROUNDWORK
"For example, are we go
ing to have duplicate resi
dential housing in Omaha?"
he questioned. "Of, if there
are increases in appropria
tions for building, where
will they go?"
Knight also contended that
groundwork should have
been laid for different grad
uate programs which may or
may not be created.
The Senator voted against
the merger in the Unicam
eral on the grounds that the
action was being taken
"without an in-depth study
of the problem areas."
RESIDENT COLLEGE?
"I'm sure, for example,"
he said, "that the President
(OU President Dr. Kirk
Naylor) said that he expects
us to build residence halls
there. Then is the reason for
Omaha wanting to merge
because they want a resi
dential college?"
Funds for extensive build
ing of residences have not
been raised for either the
present OU or the proposed
University of Nebraska at
Omaha.
If the merger is approved
ty Omaha, the legislature
has provided for a $3 mil
lion appropriation for the
Omaha campus, plus an
additional $1 million expan
sion fund.
FINANCING
Through this financing,
the University campus at
Omaha would be part of the
University of Nebraska's fi
nancial program.
"The legislature has al
ready authorized the Re
gents of the University of
Nebraska to make certain
expenditures for activity at
the Omaha campus," Dr.
Joseph Soshnik, vice-chancellor
for administration
and corporate secretary of
the Regents, said.

Merger
"In that relationship, the
University of Nebraska at
Omaha would be a part of
the program," Soshnik said.
COLLEGE BUDGETS
But Soshnik explained that
the finances of the two cam
puses, if Omaha approves
the merger, is more compli
cated than a matter of com
parable budgets for the two
schools.
From the state's higher
education general fund of
$52 million, the Omaha
campus would receive $3
million, plus the other mon
ies for expansion. (That $52
million does not include fi
nancing for the University
of Nebraska at Linculn. )
"In the aggregate, Oma
ha would have a budget of
about $7 million," Soshnik
said, "with the additional
revenues taken in from
earlier financing and tui
tion." APPROPRIATIONS
The Unicameral appropri
ations for the University of
Nebraska, exclusive of the
University of Nebraska at
Omaha, is $86 million for
the biennium.
But Soshnik was quick to
point out that the figure ap
plies to two years and in
cludes many other areas of
financing than the educa
tion of students on the Lin
coln campus.
"When we are speaking of
this $86 million," he said,
"we are dealing with an in
stitution broader in scope
than Lincoln."
This scope includes the
College of Medicine in Oma
ha, experimental stations
over the state, and numer
ous other projects, he
pointed out.

Two Faculty Members
Elected AAUP Officers
By GARY GILLEN
Junior Staff Writer
The offices of secretary
and president were given to
two University faculty
members during the Nebras
ka Conference of the
American Association of
University Professors
(AAUP) at their meeting in
Kearney last Saturday.
They are Erwirj Golden
stein, professor and chair
man of the department of
history and philosophy of
education, president and
Lawrence Poston, associate
professor of English, sec
retary. Besides the election of of
ficers the conference voted
20-19 against expressing
concern over use of under
cover agents on Nebraska
university and college cam
puses. COMMENDATIONS GIVEN
Goldenstein recalled that
one of the arguments
against support of the
measure was fear of the
AAUP being misunderstood
by passing the proposal.
The conference also com
mended Creighton and Oma
ha Universities for remov- j
ing disciplinary records j
from student academic
transcripts.
They also commended the
State Normal Board, which
is now under censure by
the AAUP, for its efforts to
bring its precedures into
conformity with the organi
zation's standards of aca
demic freedom.
Other officers elected
were Loyd Hubenka, vice
president Creighton Univer
sity; and Harold Blostein,
treasurer, Kearney State
College.
ENCOURAGE
MEMBERSHIP
Goldenstein said that 'as
president of the Nebraska
Conference of the AAUP
he intends to encourage
greater membership in the
Nebraska chapters of the
organization.
Other goals of the AAUP
he intends to carry out are
academic freedom, student
rights and improving the
financial status of the pro
fession. The AAUP on the Univer
sity campus has recently
