Don't blame computer:
Blame God instead
UPC expansion creates programs, needs chairmen
Don't hate the computer, the
mistakes in your class schedule
were probably your own.
"That's right," Said Lee W.
Chatfield, Dean of Academic
Services. "Half the mistakes in
schedules resulting in in
complete programs were due to
student errors."
For those students vho did
make such mistakes and for
those who through no fault of
their own wound up with in
complete schedules, there were
the drop and add lines.
From Jan. 19-23, for the first
time free drops and adds were
run exclusively for those
students with incomplete
schedules. Prior to this
semester, a student who pre
registered and got only a por
tion of the total hours he asked
for was required to stand in the
line at the same time as did
students who wished to change
from one course to another.
He also stated that only about
half of the students of the
estimated 2,000 students with
incomplete schedules took ad
vantage of the special drop and
add session.
"Those who didn't take ad
vantage of that period probably
joined the lines with the other
pre-registered students Jan. 26
23," said the dean.
The Nebraska Union Pro
gram Council (UPC) will be
holding interviews to select
chairmen for its various com
mittees Saturday, Feb. 7, ac
cording to Tom Lonnquist,
program council president
At its most recent meeting
the UPC overhauled the com
mittee structure in order to in
crease the level of student
participation in campus life
programming, Lonnquist said.
Rather than handling a large
area, the chairmen will be in
charge of more specific and
short term projects.
In an effort to continue its
current projects and allow for '
expanded programs the Union
will not limit its interviews for
these specific areas, Lonnquist
continued. If a student has an
idea for a new program, a
position can easily be created.
No previous experience In
Union programming is
necessary to apply. Application
forms should be picked up im
mediately in Room 128 of the
Nebraska Union.
If you dorft like the way people talk to each other,
well pay you to change it.

We're In the communications business.
And during the next 30 years we're going to upgrade all the equip
ment we now have In order to provide even better service to our 6 million
xlstlng customers.
As if that weren't enough we're also going to have to come up with
enough new equipment to provide telephone service to abouf 26 million
more people. As well as equipment for a much more extensive data com
munications program.
We need enough people (electrical, civil, mechanical and Industrial
engineers, designers, accountants and economists) to plan, design, build
and operate a company that will be four times bigger than we are today.
We also need engineers, researchers and scientists to develop electronic
switching equipment, laser and other communications systems we'll be
using 10, 25 and 50 years from now.
But this is only one part of our communications business.
Our Sylvanla people, for example, are Involved in other types of
communications. Like color television sets, satellite tracking stations
and educational television systems.
Automatic Electric, Lenkurt, Ultrontc Systems and some of our other
companies, subsidiaries and divisions are working on advanced types of
Integrated circuitry, electro-opticals and communications systems be
tween people and computers and between computers and computers.
So if you think you have something to say about the way people talk
to each other . . . we're ready to listen.
