to George T. Bastian,
Association Executive
Secretary.
"THE
ASSOCIATION'S
is to keep com

plete records of all former
University students who at
tended more than two
semesters," Bastian said.
"We have about 61 thousand
good addresses now, out of
the 110 thousand who ever
attended XU," he said.
These 61 thousand are
almost continuously on the
move. Bastian said, and must
be tracked down by the
Association on a budget of
about $125 thousand a vear.
"WE HOPE our budget
allotment will increase mis
year, since the number of
University students increases
each year," Bastian said.
Student senate 'IDEA'
aimed at communication
Student Senate is publishing
a newsletter, called IDEA,
every two weeks to "increase
communication between
students and ASUN." ac
cording to Brent D. Skinner,
ASUN press secretary.
"People talk about a lack of
communication between
ASUN and students," Skinner
continued. IDEA is intended
to correct that situation.
DISTRIBUTED throughout
the campus eery other
Tuesday, the one page sheet
contains announcements and
articles about ASUN activities.
"Students are encouraged
to comment in person or
writing to senators about
anything appearing in IDEA,
or about any other ASUN ac
tivity," Skinner commented.

cording to Dale Mesner,
chairman of the committee.
Before leaving Biafra. Dr.
Nagel was director of
Northern Ngwa County
Hospital in Biafra. He has
lived for many years in both
Nigeria and Biafra. He will
present slides in his program.
Dr. Nagel will also speak at
Union College on Saturday,

THE BIAFRAX Committee
hs been speaking at local
high schools in Lincoln in the
ract uwU. Mesner said.
"The Students at Southeast
High School are sponsoring
a petition to President-elect
Nivon asking him to intervene ;
in the Biaf ran crisis," Mesner ;
said. In addition to this, they
are raising funds by skipping
meals and sponsoring dances.
Students at Lincoln High
and East High are also
participating in these pro
jects. OUR FUND now totals
about ,000 of which S5.000 is
from the University campus,"
Mesner said. The national
organization has farther
developed their efforts and is
coordinating the various local
committees throughout the
United States.
The only answer to the
problem is to mobilize
political action to pressure
world governments to ad
vocate a cease fire in this
crisis," John Anaza. another
committee member said.

too poor," he said.
THE ALUMNI Association
receives funds allotted from
the University budget, as well
as money from the University
Foundation and dividends
from funds invested from an
old endowment fund.
The fund was established
from alumni life membership
contributions received before
collection of alumni dues was
discontinued, Bastian said.
The Association sends
"Nebraska Alumnus," the
alumni magazine, to all
former students in a further
attempt to keep in contact
with alums. Bastian said.
"THIS MAGAZINE is the
only vehicle the University
has to reach alumni." he said.
"We used to publish an
alumni directory, but it serv

discontinued it."

Bastian has found that
about half the former
students catalogued by the
Association have moved out
of Nebraska upon leaving the
University. Denver and
California seem to have the
most drawing power for
former Nebraskans.
The California Alumni
chapter has a potential list of
four thousand members, he
said.
"THE EXIT of graduates is
not different in Nebraska than
it is from any other state. I
think it's normal for young
people to want to get away
from home," Bastian said.
"Another function of the
Association is to assist the 60
or so alumni Nebraska
chapters around the United
States," he said. "Our main
function with these groups is
to help them with meeting
programs.
"Many chapters are Big
Red football-oriented, but
most of the chapters are more
interested in the students at
NU today, academic changes
and the building program
going on."
"The high-rise building
program is amazing to alums
who only remember Nebraska
as a two or three-story cam
pus," Bastian said.
communication between faculty-administration
personnel
and ASUN are under con
sideration. "WE ARE simply trying to
increase involvement in stu
dent government activities,"
Skinner said. "In addition to
IDEA, senators will begin
speaking directly to in
terested groups in the future.
Any group wanting any
senator to speak on any sub
ject can contact ASUN and a
Senator will be provided,
Skinner said.
He emphasized that the
newsletter is , just one of
several differents activities
planned to enhance com
munication between students
and ASUN.
About 5.000 copies of each
issue are printed. Skinner
reported. IDEA is entirely
ASUN financed.

Yule party
Harper -Schramm-Smith
Dormitory Complex is plan
ning a Christmas party for 600
Lincoln children Dec. 14 and
15, according to Cliff Sather,
president of Harper Hall.
The idea of the party
originated with a Harper
Student Assistant, Roger
Kovyiashi. It will be a com
munity service for handicap
ped, mentally retarded and
under-privileged children.
"We will be accomplishing
many goals through this pro
ject," Sather said, "unifying
the complex, integrating the
community and the, college,
and including a broad range
of people benefitting from the
service to name a few.
HE NOTED that the project
was going well under the
direction of project chairman
John Brandstetter.
"We have been in contact
with Chancellor Hardin and
Governor Tiemann both
are supporting the project,"
Sather commented.

The party will be held in
four shifts. Children will enter
through the decorated mall
which will include a lighting
display. They will go to each
of the three dorms in turn.

New program joins
student,profession
Ten University engineering
students and ten Nebraska
professional engineers have
begun a year-long "Protege"
association.
The professional engineers
and students will spend time
together periodically
throughout the academic year
so that students can better
learn about professional
aspects of engineering, ac
cording to Professor James S.
Blackman of the College of
Engineering and Architec
ture. The program, in its third
year of operation, has been
highly successful, Blackman
reported.
Student response, almost
without exception, has been
complementary, he continued.
STUDENTS COMPETE for
the position in the program,
even though it is not required,
he said. The program this
year is twice as large as
ever before.
Professional engineers are
invited by the chairman of the
four engineering departments
agricultural, chemical,
civil and electrical to
participate in the protege
association.
"There has never been a
shortage of professional peo
ple," Blackman said. The
professionals come from all
over Nebraska.
Students taking part in the
program are selected by the
student professional societies,
he said.
ARRANGEMENTS FOR
the year were made by the
students and professionals at
a luncheon earlier this week.
"If the program continues
