SA's faced with identity crisis;

continued from page 1
A male student, assistant
disagreed claiming, "I've got
as much freedom 1 want."
He said he was not aware
of student assistants being
restricted in their discussions.
Dunn! the onen housing
controversy that raged during
February, he said student as
sistants were advised to talk
to housing office officials be
fore sending letters to area
newspapers.
"There was much concern
about what we as student as
sistants could do about bring
ing about a change," he
added.
Staff free to discuss
Three dormitory residence
directors felt the staff was
free to discuss matters pub
licly although it was definitely
encouraged that they use ap
propriate channels initially.
They said SA's in their
dorms are not prohibited from
speaking out, "but we would
hope they wouldn't campaign
actively for one side," one
residence director said.
Larry Donat. Selleck resi
dence director for men. said
he felt student assistants
were not free to publicly dis
cuss University policy since
proper channels are provided
iui uim Ull jjunc.
Be Prepared
"When we publicly go out
side of our channels by dis
cussing University policy, we
should be prepared to submit
our resignations," he said.
He added that since the Uni
versity is the staff's employer,
"we have an obligation not to
go around sticking a knife
into their backs."
Another female student as
sistant felt she had quite a
bit of freedom, although she
confessed that it was assumed
SA's would not say things
detrimental to current policy.
One female SA said she is
free to discuss anything she
wants publicly as long as she
does not identify herself as a
University student assistant.
No ultimatum given
"We are given no great big
ultimatum from the sky, but
we are told that we are paid
to be staff members," she
explained.
Although student assistants
are permitted to participate
in initial discussion before
policy is made, they are not
permitted to make public
statements after the policy
has become effective, one
male student assistant said.
"There is a considerable
adverse reaction to student
assistants writing letters to
the Daily Nebraskan after
policy has been made," he
noted.
System isn't hard
"But as an SA, it's a sys
tem that really isn't hard to
live with," he confessed.
"We are obliged to uphold
policy but we are not obh'
gated not to oppose policy
verbally," one male SA said in
explaining that change, should
be made through legal chan
nels. He said he does not feel
the job restricts persons from
saying what they wish and
they are free to use their
own judgment.
Loyalty Is detriment
"Loyalty to the administra
tion is the biggest detriment
to my freedom," he added,
"there isn't a threat hanging
over you, but you evaluate
policy closer when you are
a student assistant."
Another female SA said the
administration is interested in
staff opinion, but she doubted
if she would publicly state a
complaint over policy.
"I have a responsibility to
the administration as an em
ploye to enforce the regula
tions, although I personally
might disagree with them,"
she said.
A male student assis
tant said there is very little
public freedom since "we our
selves are people that admini
ster policy and we are not
policy makers."
"There are times when you
disagree with policy, but I
can't see. any other way to
run the system," he con
cluded. The conflict between the
student assistant's personal
viewpoints and administrative
policy is best defined and con
cluded with an exerpt from
a four page release on func
tions of being a student as-
sistant.
"It is
society .
sistants'
apparent that in a
. , that student as
initial concern will
be for students. This concern
is not always from the stu
dent assistants' personal view
point, but it may also be from
the goals of the University
Faculty committee to decide hour's rules
Miss Helen Snyder, Asso.
ciate Dean of Student Af
fairs, Thursday put a damper
on the AWS Congressmen's
plans to liberalize women's
hours regulations.
According to Miss Snyder,
the proposals made by the
Congress at the April 25th
session would be subject to
approval by a Faculty Sen
ate committee. Miss Snyder
said a special committee
meeting would be called by
Dean G. Robert Ross prior
to the semester's end.
Miss Snyder, who compared
the AWS Congress to the
Board of Regents in their abil
ity to pass University laws,
said the congressmen must
be aware of their power and
responsibility.
Congressment passed a
movement to form an AWS
committee to study the pos
sibilities for improvements in
the Teacher College curricu
lum. The movement followed a
suggestion by AWS President
Mimi Baker for expanding the
scope of AWS. According to
Miss Baker, who outlined one
purpose of AWTS was to aid
large bodies of women's stu
dents, the women who rep
resent 87 per cent of Teach.
ers College students give AWS
a sufficient basis for action.
Nancy Eaton, AWS second
vice president outlined a new
role for AWS workers. The
group, which will be more se
lect and less numerous, will
work on different program
committees or assist the ex
ecutives instead of merely
selling tickets for the AWS
Coed Follies, she said.
Before adjourning, Congress
passed branch court consti
tutions for Selleck, Pound and
East Campus. These consti
tutions had previously been
studies and approved by the
AWS Court of Appeals.

If white racism persists,
McCaslin added, the Negro
is goint to react by throwing
Molotov cocktails . . . and "I
don't blame them a bit."
Father McCaslin said that
he does not condone rioting,
but he said that the Negroes
must fight back if they are
men with senses of value,
dignity and wortn the same
as the men who said, Re
member the Alamo" and "Re
member the Maine."
In the ghettos, 80 per cent
of the houses are delapidated,
he said. Rats exist in abun
dance and you cannot drive
a car down the alleys for fear
of receiving a punctured tire.
It will take money to rec
tify what we have destroyed,
and we cannot do this as long
as the Vietnam war exists.
That is why you will find that
most of us are pacifists . . ,
You can't use the money to
build until you stop using it
to destroy," he said.
Father McCaslin told of the
national movement among Ne-
groes that preaches. "Black
is beautiful, baby." He said
that we must not teach the
children that "Bad guys wear
black hats and good guys
wear white hats" so that we
can develop pride in the Ne
gro children and obliterate
the false conotations of the
Negro's status in the minds
of white children.
He said that the Negroes
need clinics and doctors
"down there where they are
accessible." He added that
when people complain that
they are pouring money down
a welfare drain, "I say that
this is a just debt, because
the white people have caused
the ghettoes, they condone
them and they are respon
sible to clean them up.
"I would start by doubling
everybody's welfare check,
and I will fight for compensa
tory hiring. If this is social
ism, so be it, he resounded
He said that the churches
must correlate their superna'
tural teachings more closely
with the realities of the Ne
gro situation.
"We've been teaching i
crossless Christianity a faith
with no teeth in it. Right now
the Jews m Omaha are the
best Christians, and that's a
compliment to them," he said.

Three professors and one
student were nominated
Wednesday to receive the

kan" award for this semes
ter. Professor Byron M. Rad
cliff'e, head of the newly-established

ence curriculum, came to the

struction Man of the Year by
Practical Builder Magazine.
Under his guidance, the Con
struction Science curriculum
is now recognized as one of
the strongest in the nation.
An adviser to the Central
Planning Committee of the

caited Schools of Construc
tion. Member of honoraries

logic societies, Treves is
presently doing research in
four different areas.
In addition, Treves teaches

Dr. Ivan Volgyes, assistant
professor of Political science,
has "a rare characteristic, a
concern for students outside
of the classroom," according
to the nominator.
The nominee has organized
a seminar situation group
which meets weekly in his
home on a non-credit, lnfor
mal basis to hear different
speakers and to discuss va
rious topics.
Active in discussions .
Volgyes participates in dis
cussions on political topics
both on and off campus, and
according to the nominator,
"turns a normally stale class
room situation into a discussion-type
interchange, supple
mented by selected reading of
up-to-date paperbacks."
He further organizes and
oversees trips by students to
seminars and panels in other
states.
Gene Pokorny, senior his
tory and philosophy major,
is the past first vice president
of ASUN.
Pokorny was instrumental

ings and the college Student
Faculty Advisory Boards.

struction of the Student Aca
demic Freedom document,
Pokorny has worked on the
Centennial College project,

dent Non-Violent Coordinat
ing Committee and the
YMCA.
At present he is the Ne
braska State Student ' Coor
dinator for Senator Eugene
McCarthy's Nebraska . Presi
dential campaign. 1 ,i
Pokorny demonstrates "an
unusual combination of Ideal
ism and a great deal of prac
tical ability," according to the
nominator.
He also noted that , his
"awareness of the larger so
cial problems and his work
here has helped to make stu
dents more concerned with
problems and issues outside
of the immediate community."
