are made per month according
to Janovy.
They can include simple
changes in course name,
description, number of credit
hours. Other changes could be
the adding or dropping of
courses.
For the first time, the
department of computer
science will come under the
College of Arts and Sciences.
THE COMPUTER science
department is currently
re-evaluating it's introductory
offerings "to better serve
students with different types
of needs," Janovy said.
The special topics course
numbered 198 is being used by
more departments according to
Janovy. An ecology oriented
course is offered in biology and
several special topics courses
are planned in physics and
history departments.
Among the new courses
approved by the Arts and
Science Curriculum Committee
are "rnysics ot Music and
"Indians of Contemporary
North America."
THE EXTENSION division
will return Japanese to its
course offerings.
A geography course
"Quality of the Environment"
is also planned.
Two graduate courses in
geology will be offered for the
first time. They are "Ground
Water Geology" and "Hydro
Geology."
Janovy also noted that
Zoology 10 will be available
without a laboratory for three
credit hours. '
AMONG THE proposals
which the curriculum
committee is scheduled to
consider for possible new
courses are: The Arts Today,
Anthropological Approach to
Indian Education, Philosophic
Classics, Introduction to Plains
Archeology, Ethnology and
Museums and Our Physical
Environment.
Regents subcommittee
begins work on housing
by Bill Smitherman
Work of a Regents
subcommittee set up to
consider solutions to the UNL
married student housing
problem is scheduled to begin
in November, according to
Regent Edward Schwartzkopf
of Lincoln.
Schwartzkopf, who chairs
the subcommittee, said it will
have representation from
several areas. The sub
committee will have student
input as well as input from the
community and the Lincoln
Housing Authority.
Though he did not give
details on how representatives
from the community would be
chosen, Schwartzkopf said
they would be voting members
of the group.
ASUN President Steve
Fowler said student members
of the subcommittee should be
selected next week.
Regents John G. Elliott of
Scottsbluff and Robert Prokop
of Wilber will also serve on the
subcommittee, Schwartzkopf
said.
"We know that a problem
exists," he said. "What we are
concerned with now is finding
answers. We want to attack the
problem and find solutions to
it."
Schwartzkopf said it is
uncertain when the
subcommittee will have a
report ready for the Board of
Regents. It will depend on the
depth of the report, he added.
In an Oct. 13 letter to
Lincoln Mayor Sam
Schwartzkopf, NU Director of
Institutional Research and
Planning Harry S. Allen said
the purpose of the
subcommittee study is to
"investigate and report back on
alternate ways in which NU
might partially contribute to
the solution of low-income
housing."
