iudents plan coed-visitation strategy
Student leaders will meet
tonight to decide the future of
a coed visitation proposal that
was recently squashed by the
University Board of Regents.
At a July 12 meeting, the
Regents unanimously rejected
all Student Guest Rights
proposal which would have
provided for coed visitation in
on-campus living units.
Since the Regents decision,
students have been discussing
alternate proposals while
waiting until the Associated

Students of the University of
Nebraska (ASUN) senators
returned to campus, said John
Humlicek, chiarman of the ad
hoc committee that authored
the visitation proposal.
Some student assistants in
the dorms have suggested
liberalization of the current
Residence Hall Association
(RHA) program which allows
coed visitation for a maximum
of six hours on certain days,
Humlicek said. Other action
being discussed is civil
disobedience, in other words
simply ignoring the Regents
negative vote, he added.
RHA is "looking into the
possibility of legal action," said
Roger Story, its president. The
basis of the Association's case
would be that the University
can't act as the students'
parents and that the Regents
are assuming an authority they
shouldn't have, he explained.
"There's a chance RHA will
initiate the legal action," Story
said, "but it will be in
cooperation with other groups
on campus."
The Guest Rights proposal
was written by an ad hoc
committee of the Housing
Policy Committee formed in
November, 1970. The proposal
was approved by the Housing
Policy Committee and the
Council on Student Life in
April, 1971.

parental opinion of this coed

7,000 surveys sent, 2,200 were
returned and showed 56 per
cent of the parents in favor of
the proposal.
However, Soshnik said "The
response indicated to me that
parental reaction falls far short
of overwhelming support for
the Student Guest Rights
proposal." He recommended to
the Regents that they not
approve the program.
