    Computers to mod education
by Linda Larson
Education of the future will
be greatly affected by
computerized programs in
Lincoln's new Institute for
Education and Technology,
William L. Stucker, Edutek
president, said Tuesday.
The Institute brings
professionals together for
improving education, he said in
an interview.
According to Stucker, the
University of Nebraska was
involved in establishing the
Institute, and NU faculty
members are currently working
with five of its eight projects.
Edutek, which operates the
Institute, is a non-profit
corporation and has a full-time
project management staff of
12. Professional experts are
hired from faculty members in
all levels of education, Stucker
said.
Relationships with
institutions in Nebraska,
Kansas, Iowa, and Missouri
"provide the very best
professional and scientific
people in the region for our

programs," he said.
The programs are also
advantageous for faculty
members, Stucker added, for
they provide "creative and
rewarding work."
"We view these working
relationships with professional
people as an excellent
opportunity for them to
acquire and maintain their
competencies in the areas of
their concern," Stucker said.
The Institute is currently
creating centers within the
region for demonstration of
teaching innovations. They are
also establishing a reading
center and computer-based
communications network to
instruct and advise reading
teachers.
One program would
computerize information on
career choice and training. This
material will be made available
to students, Stucker said.
The Institute is evaluating
existing educational programs
and the improvement of
training in education,
according to Stucker.
The United States Office of
Education, (USOE) finances
the projects, he explained.
USOE tapped funds
appropriated by the following
legislation: Vocational
Education Act of 1963,
Education of the Handicapped
Act, Education Professions
Development Act, Elementary
and Secondary Education Act
of 1965, and the General
Education Provisions Act.
IJNL taculty members
involved in Institute programs
are Wes. C. Meirhenry,
chairman of Department of
Continuing Education; Jack G.
McBride, director of NU
educational television; Paul H.
Schupbach, director of Great
Plains Instructional Library;
Dr. Robert Filbeck, professor
of educational psychology; Carl
Donaldson, consultant to NU
president; and Max Hansen,
associate professor of industrial
education.
The Institute for Education
and Technology has an office
in Lincoln Airpark West.

"IF 60 PER CENT of the
women in Nebraska want the
law abolished, it should be
abolished," she said, adding she
feels if Governor Exon really
has promised to veto any
repeal of the law, he is not
being responsive to the voters.
Right to Life groups, also
called Friends of the Fetus,
have 50 groups across the state,
Schulder said, crediting them
with "very good organization."
SHE SAID THEY and
churches are usually most of
the organized opposition to
liberalized abortion laws. She
said she feels the involvement
of churches violates the
"separation of church and
state" principle.

THIS CflfJ TELL YOU.
This is the remarkable Bose 1001 Computer. It's designed to aid you in selecting the
perfect speakers for your stereo system. In just 8 minutes, without any technical back
ground, you'll understand how things like direct sound, reflected sound, and equali
zation can influence music reproduction in your home. The 1001 computer separates
these basic components of sound, and lets you experience them separately. After the
demonstration, you'll be better prepared to know what to listen for in your search for
the right speaker.
Mike Gundolfi, Staff Marketing Engineer for Bose Corporation, will be at Electronics
Unlimited with the 1001 Computer during the Bose Speaker Clinic.

American Civil Liberties
Union is working on a
preliminary legal brief to
decide whether it will help
fund a suit by RHA against the
Regents.
Last summer, the Regents
rejected a student guest rights
proposal that would have
allowed coed visitation in
campus living units if agreed to
by unit members and if the
students had parental
permission to participate.
Story said current
University regulations on
visitation are insulting,
repressive and "create a feeling
of frustration and anger."
He said students are
disenchanted with working
through normal channels but
will wait for the outcome of
CSL"s negotiations before
proceeding with any legal
action.
