Work-study employs 800 by Adella Wacker This year, UNL's work-study program ' matched up about 800 qualified students with 1,200 to 1,500 job requests out of 6,000 or more students who applied. There were enough federal funds to support about 800 student jobs, according to Bruce Douthit, financial aids advisor for the program. Work -study is a program for students, especially those from low-income families, who need a job to help defray college expenses. A majority of students held work-study jobs last year and consequently will be eligible for higher pay this year, Douthit said. However, eligibility is not automatic for them. Work-study students must reapply every spring. Even when a department or agency is happy with a student's work and requests him back for the next year, the student may not be reassigned, he said. This operation has caused some distress within departments because they stand to lose trained and capable workers in the reapplication process. Douthit estimated that 200 students were moved out of jobs they wanted in departments that wanted them back because others were deemed more needy financially. There are some persons within the University, Douthit said, who would like to see a change to give priority to students with training and experience. But the Student Affairs Office has re-emphasized this position: work-study shall remain first of all a financial aid program to help students most in need, he said. Agencies outside the University which are non-profit and not religious or political in nature employ some work-study students. Major employers in Lincoln, according to Douthit, are the Recreation Dept., YWCA, Lancaster Office of Mental Retardation (LOMR), Lincoln Action Program (LAP), and Lincoln Public Schools. Work-study grants also create jobs for 600 to 800 students during the summer. About 200 of those students work either in home town extension agencies or city halls, Douthit said. During the year, students are employed in laboratories, offices, libraries, clinics and the maintenance department. Students can work as messengers, teacher aids or even in child care centers. Douthit said the College Scholarship Service (CSS) "bears the brunt" of deciding who is eligible for work-study jobs. CSS reviews applications and confidential financial statements submitted each spring and rates them on financial need. University financial aids skims the top of the eligibility stack and reviews the applications. Although there isn't the time or manpower for the , University to review all eligible applications, Douthit estimated that 25 per cent are. "There may be some individual injustices," he said, referring to students whose need has changed or whose application has been misrated. In terms of an overall program like this, however, Douthit said this system evens itself out. Nebraska veterans utilize benefits An estimated 17,000 of the 40,000 Vietnam-era veterans living in Nebraska have taken advantage of their Gl Bill education benefits, according to Harry Piper, director of the Veterans Administration Regional office in Lincoln. Percentage-wise, that's above the national average, he reported. Nearly 40 per cent are in Gl Bill educational programs nationally, while in Nebraska, 42.5 per cent are enrolled. A Nebraska breakdown shows 22.6 per cent of the veterans have used the bill to go to college, 14.3 per cent for below-college-level education and 5.6 per cent for on-the-job training, Piper reported. The use rates exceed those for veterans of any other American conflict, he added. DAILY NEBRASKAN WANT ADS can be placad in room 34 Nebraska Union.
