The Regents had been hoping
that the legislature would ap

University had been asked to
revise the construction request
and present all the items in one
request
The first priority drew a re
quest of over $6 million. Second
on the list, drawing over
$2,300,000 was land acquisition
at Lincoln and the Medical
Center in Omaha.
The third priority went to a
classroom building at UNO.
Fourth was a life sciences
building in Lincoln and fifth
went to a School of Nursing
Building at the Medical Center
in Omaha.
A Lincoln Home Economics
Building was tenth of the 13
requests. Funds for this
building were also invalidated
by the court.
The Regents chose to wait
before naming architects for
the primary planning of the
home economics building and a
new field house and athletic
facility for the Lincoln cam
pus. Though the athletic facility is
not on the list of priorities for
the coming biennium some
legislators have indicated that
it is high on their lists of
priorities.

Meeting to discuss
junior college grads
Every year an increasing
number of junior college
graduates are enrolling at the
University.
A conference is planned Dec.
3 between representatives from
the seven Nebraska junior col
leges and the University to
discover better ways to serve
junior college transfer
students.
"We hope that we can help
the junior colleges learn more
about the University," said
John Aronson, Director of
University Admissions. "But
we also hope to learn ways
from the junior colleges in
which we can make life better
for transfer students."
The conference between the
Junior Colleges and the
University is the first one of its
kind.
Four hundred students at the
University have come from
junior colleges. "The number Is
not very large compared to the
whole student body, but we are
just receiving the growth In
junior college enrollment. In
two years, that number will be
considerably larger, Aronson
said.
For a number of years many
of the Nebraska junior colleges
lagged behind the rest of the
Law library falls short
of accreditation standards
"Although the chances of
losing our accreditation are
small," says the assistant dean
of the Law College, "our law
library doesn't meet the stan
dards set by the Association of
American Law Schools."
Accreditation standards re
quire each law library to pro
vide seating for at least 65 per
cent of the student body at one

nation, he continued. They
were supported only by their
local communities until 1968
when the Legislature
established state support of
junior colleges.
"Many students find the en
vironment of a junior college
better suited to their needs
than the first two years at the
University," Aronson said.
"The conference will enable u3
to understand the background
of junior college transfer
students.
"Maybe we are
overestimating the student,
which is just as bad as un
derestimating him. However,
we are getting good results
from the junior college
graduates."
A coffee hour, at 2:30 p.m. in
the Union Centennial Room is
open to ths former junior col
lege students at the University.
There will be a discussion
between the University and
junior college representatives
and the junior college
transfers.
The colleges planning to at
tend are McCook, Fairbury,
North Platte, York, Nebraska
Western at Scottsbluff, Platte
at Columbus and Nebraska
Northeastern at Norfolk.
plained, and next year the
library will be 100 seats short
of meeting this requirement
"There's no way the present
library can be expanded
without a new building," he
said.
Appropriations for a new
building are slated for the 1973
75 biennium, and if the money
Is received, actual construction
will probably take anoiher two,
Shaneyfelt said.
East Campus is the proposed
site for the future Law College,
said the dean, observing that
the present problem of noise
from In'erstate traffic would be
re roved.
In addition to the over
crowded library, limited
classroom space makes a new
building necessary, Shaneyfelt
said, there's space for only
three classrooms in the 58-year-old
building.
Besides library require
ments, accreditation by the
Asicciailon depends on the .
stucient-faculty ratio, the
number of faculty, entrance
requrements and the cur
rcui'um Shaneyfelt said.
