    Senate asks faculty
for representation
In ' an unusually impromtu
Wednesday meeting AS UN in
troduced resolutions on
everything but Rudolph's red
nose. .
Sen. Steve Fowler called on
the faculty Senate to act on
motions relating to student
representation on faculty com
mittees. Faculty Senate
recently tabled proposed action
on the committees until the
relationship between ASUN and
the Graduate Student Associa
tion (GSA) was more clearly
defined.
Fowler's resolution noted
that the GSA had agreed to let
ASUN appoint graduate stu
dents to the committees in ques
tion. The Senate approved his
resolution.
The Senators awarded the
Student Action Front $100 from
the ASUN General Fund. Sen.
Roy. Baldwin argued that the
allocation was "actually taxing
students for the SAF.' He ask
ed ,the Senate why other
organizations would not be
justified in requesting funds if
SAF received theirs.
Sen. Steve Fowler countered
with the observation that ASUN
already gives money to other
groups including $1500 to the
World in Revolution Com
mittee. Dave Ratlif presented the
Report of the Ad Hoc In
vestigating Committee on the
Michael Davis case. He said
the committee's findings
repudiate two of the Regent's
reasons for not hiring Davis
and made .the other two "look
kind of silly."
ASUN President Steve
Tiwald suggested the Senate
"second the Regents" in com
mending Ratliff's report. The
Regents voted to commend the
committee for their efforts.
Sen. Bill Arfman made a
motion to accept the report and
request the Regents to make a
substantive written reply by
March 1. He also suggested
that ASUN hold informal
meetings with the Regents,
Ratliff's committee and the
press. His motion was tabled.
Tiwald mentioned the
postponement of the Regent's
decision on Steven Rozman. He
stated that the Board had
yielded to the "pressure of
student senate" as represented
by ASUN.
An immunity resolution was
introduced by Sen. Bill
Behmer. Its intention was to
urge the Regents to grant im
munity to those who testify in
the Rozman investigation.
After protestations by several
senators that the group might
not have the expertise to act on
the resolution, it was tabled for
a week.

"A fc
X,
Tiwald- average
student doesn't exist
Senate standout
Bruce Wimmer
"Education should be focused
on the individual, not on the
'average student'," according
to ASUN president Steve
Tiwald.
Commenting on a recently
compiled paper outlining a
philosophy of education, Tiwald
said in an interview Tuesday on
KRNU that he feels there is no
such thing as the "average
student."
There is too much im
personalization, Tiwald feels,
because education at the
University is aimed at the
average student.
''Classroom teaching
methods should be aimed at
developing the whole person
and not at just looking at the
person as a potential engineer,
sociologist or whatever."
Tiwald said one of the
purposes of college is for the
student to find out more about
himself and to help him answer
the questions "who am I,"
"why am I doing what I am
doing," "where am I going"
and "what are my goals."
"This is what the University
faculty should keep in mind as
they subject the student to the
educational process," he
said.
Tiwald also sees a need for
more flexibility in the type of
classes offered. More in
dependent study and more in
terdisciplinary classes, those
taught by more than one
department, are examples of
what is needed, he said.
The size jf freshman and
sophomore classes shou'd be
decreased while upperclass size
should be increased Tiwald
said. Upperclass students have
already acquired the afbility to
learn more an their cwn while
freshmen should have more
individual help available, he
added.
A copy of the report on which
Tiwald was commenting is
available from the Cenler for
EducatlonsJ Change, Room 344,
Nebraska Union, or from the
ASUN office, Room 334,
Union.
