"They (parents) go out of their w ay to make you study," commented Kathy
Curtin, president-elect of Towne Club, in appraising the Lincoln student's
educational situation.

President's commission says nation will be divided
4two societies, one black, one white.'
A Presidential Commission
stated that the present inter
racial turmoil will eventual
ly split the nation into "two
societies, one black and one
white." This statement was
made in a report which the
Commission published Thurs
day. The Commission was ap
pointed after last summer's
rioting saw death and de
struction come to several
large American cities. Ap
proximately eight months of
study followed the long hot
summer which saw looting,
shooting and arson become
a way of life in Detroit.

Montgomery lecture
speaker selected
A noted American scientist
and writer, Prof. Eugene Ra-
binowitch of the University of
Illinois, has been selected to
deliver the 1968 Montgomery
lectures at the University of
Nebraska. '
Dr. Rabinowitch, director of
the photosynthesis research
laboratory at Illinois and edi
tor of the "Bulletin of the
Atomic Scientists." will speak
on the topics "Peace" and
"Development May 7-9.
Born In Russia and schooled
in Germany, Dr. Rabinowitch
became a citizen of the United
States 25 years ago. In addi
tion to teaching positions at
Illinois, Brown University and
Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, he worked on the
Manhattan Project which de
veloped the atomic bomb.
Since that time he has been
editor of the "Bulletin of the
Atomic Scientists," or as it
is sub-titled "Journal for
Science and Public Affairs."
In his writings, which have
been widely reprinted in the
general press and books, Dr.
Rabinowitch has used as his
central theme the necessity
ot scientists to concern them
selves with national and in
ternational relations and the
need for the public to become
aware of the political and so
cial implications of science.
From the Photosynthesis
Research Laboratory that he
directs have come important
advances in the study of the
primary photochemical pro
cesses in photosyntheses.
The Montgomery lectures at
the University of Nebraska
were established in 1946, fi
nanced by an endowment pro
vided bv the estate of the late
Laura Claire Montgomery.
They are designed to bring
eminent scholars to the Uni
versity of Nebraska to discuss
topics of interest with faculty,
students, and the general public.

by, nor were they the con
sequence of, any organized
plan or conspiracy."
The Commission added this
caution however:
"We recognize that the con
tinuation of disorders and the
polatization of the races would
provide fertile ground for or
ganized exploitation in the fu
ture."
$1,636,077
granted to
med school
Sen. Carl Curtis has an
nounced that a grant of $1.-
636,077 has been awarded to
the University of Nebraska

appropriated funds, plus
$360,000 which will be raised
by College of Medicine alum
ni.
Dr. Cecil L. Wittson, dean
of the college, said that con
struction should start around
July 1. The library will be
built atop the new Basic
Sciences Building new under
construction on the east side
of the Omaha campus.
The library will contain
three floors with approximate
ly 23.000 square feet of space
per floor. It is designed for a
minimum of 282,000 volumes,

Academic and social educa
tion for the student living at
home with his parents or rela
tives need not be hamper
ed by off-campus living, ac
cording to Kathy Curtin, president-elect
of Towne Club.
"There's something about
parents cracking down . . .
They go out of their way to
make you study," Miss Curt
in said.
Apparently parents do influ
ence the student's academic
work. According to the reg

All University students are
eligible to participate in the
March 10 East Campus Tal

will be presented to the best

The talent show, sponsored
by the East Union Recreation
Committee, requires only that
entrants audition March 5, so
that final contestants can be
selected for the March 10
show.
Judges for the show are Dr.
John Thurbcr of the Speech

parents or relatives in Lin
coln was 2.715. The all-university
average was 2.496 and the
dorm average was 2.313.
Living at home does provide
some obstacles to the student,
however. Sophomore Suzanne
Simpson says "you meet peo
ple in classes, but you don't
socialize that much."
According to Miss Simpson
"meeting other people is the
most important part of college
life, but the Lincoln student
is limited because he does not
live on campus." She added
that the refrigerator and tele
vision also tend to be distract-
ing.
Sense of belonging needed
"The. Lincoln student needi
a sense of belonging," accord
ing to Miss Curtin. She added
that clubs such as Unicorn
and Towne Club offer the Lin
coln student some opportuni
ties to become more involved
in the university. These clubs,
however, can only take a
small percentage of the Lin
coln students.
Towne Club, an unaffiliated
sorority, has a membership of
70 girls. Unicorn, a service
organization, has a member
ship of about 40 students,
male and female.
There were more than 4.300
Lincoln students registered Hi
the University last semester,
according to Lee W. Chat
field, associate dean of stu
dent affairs.
John E. Aronson. director
of admissions says he encour
ages students to go away to
school. He added, until this
year "the university lost
many good Lincoln students
because it wouldn't allow
them to live on-campus in uni
versity housing and they
wanted to go away to school."
This year, however, the uni
versity encouraged students to
move on campus first semes
ter, according to M. Edward
Brvan. director of housing. He
added the space was not avail
j able to Lincoln students in
previous years, out mis year
there is more available.
There are also many ad
vantages to living at home ac
cording to many Lincoln stu
dents. One student reported
"I like privacy. In a sorority
or dorm you don't get that."
Living off campus is also
cheaper and offers more lux-;
uries than the university can
offer, according to Bryan.
"It's a personal thing, but
the social and academic ob
stacles are not insurmounta
ble." says sophomore Doris
Adams. If so, those 4.300 Lin
coln students have the oppor
tunity to become active in on-
campus life while enjoying the
comforts and economy of liv
ing at home.

All election forms considered

"We felt that in solving the
p r o b ! e m s of the first, we
would answer the objectives
of the second within realm of
possibility, considering the
senator s time and number of
interested constituents," he
said.
He said the committee felt
that although all forms con
sidered had advantages and
flaws, the present system
should be improved by imple
menting several points.
He said the committee,
which has been studying the
problem since December, has
suggested that a committee
be established to evaluate re
sults of their proposals.
If the proposals are not ac
ceptable after implementa
tion, then a larger constitu
tion convention committ
should be initiated to debate!
and study the project, he
added.
In analyzing the flaws of
the c o 1 1 e g e representation
system. Bailey said many
students were unaware of
their senators activities.
Even if the students were
cognizant of his activities,
they were unable to contact
him to voice opinions.
He said students' knowledge
of what college they are en
rolled in and the ease of not
reapportioning Senate each
year were advantages to t h e
present election procedure.
"We feel before tne com
plete ratification is made,
these proposals should at
least be tried because of the
disadvantages in other sys
tems," he said.
He said the committee, se
lected first semester by ASUN
President Dick Schulze, ar
rived at their conclusions by
carefully evaluating each sys
tem through correspondence
with all Big Eight schools and
representatives of the Nation
al Student Government Asso
ciation. The group also met w-ith
members from an ASUN con
stitutional convention which
selected the college represen
tation system three years ago
as the most feasible to t h e
University's needs.
"We asked ourselves if the
other systems would actually
cover up for the faults of our
present system," Bailey said.
