Faculty
groups
rights
Two UNL facuKy groups are vying for the right to bargain
collectively on salaries and tenure with the administration.
" Neither is having much success.
Both the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) and the
American Association of University Professors (AAUP) mailed
pledge cards to faculty members earlier this year. The cards
authorize that organization to represent the individual as a
bargaining agent.
AFT President Sing-nan Fen said some cards were returned
bearing "unfriendly comments." AAUP President Richard
Gilbert said response had been better than expected, but still
not good enough. Labor relations laws would require the
bargaining organization to represent at least 30 per cent of the
faculty.
1 Both groups also are soliciting members. The AFT now has
about 90, according to Fen. There are 300 members of the
national AAUP at UNL but onlv about 60 are dues-paving
members of the local chapter, Gilbert said.
A coalition between the two might be possible someday,
Fen said, since their differences are narrowing.
AAUP is 58 years old nationally, and has been concerned
mainly with academic freedom since its beginning, Gilbert
said. The AFT chapter at UNL was formed last year, with
collective bargaining as one of its primary goals.
"AAUP wasn't originally for collective bargaining," Fen
said, "but they're coming into it now. We're a more aggressive
and less established group. AAUP works more closely with the
administration.
' "We do work together on some small matters, and our
membership overlaps, so we hope eventually some sort of
coalition can be reached."
Gilbert agrees that the two groups basically are a
"compatible bunch," but thinks they will continue going their
separate ways for the time being.
"Some of our members don't like the AFT because it's part
of the AFL-CI0 and had its roots in the labor movement," he
said. "And some of their members don't like our ideas.
"We're not ruling out a coalition some day, but I think we
can get more support for collective bargaining by working

Grants increase
foundation till
t- i
The University of Nebraska Foundation till
has become significantly more substantial as a
result of two large grants-one of $1 million
and the other $100,500-donated recently.
The foundation has become, sole
acjrnfry'strator of the $1 million estate of jMacW
Hammond Fling. Money from that estate will
be used to assist graduate students and faculty
members in graduate work and research.
Fling, an Iowa native, earned a bachelor's
degree from the University in 1894. She
returned in 1896 for her master's degree and
then taught in Lincoln.
The Fling grants will be for $2,600 yearly
stipends plus tuition and books to full-time
students in Graduate College.
Another former UNL student, Roland F.
Simons, gave the foundation a $100,500 in
securities to "help ease the burden of
present-day students who face an
ever-increasing tuition rate."
The fund will be named in honor of his wife,
Marjorie, and will provide loans for
undergraduate students enrolled on the Lincoln
campus.
Theater for youth
does 'Mayflower'
Theatre Arts for Youth (TAFY) starts its
second season with Mayflower this weekend.
'f r The original dance-drama ( was written by
' faculty members Robert Beadell and Bill Wallis.
According to Dorothy Olson, TAFY president,
. it is a retelling of the landing of the Pilgrims at
Plymouth Rock. The story is retold in dance
with choreography by Marie Sanwick.
Tickets are available for $1, with
performances at 9 a.m. and 10:30 a.m.
Saturday and Sunday at 2:30 p.m. and 4 p.m.
at Kimball Recital Hall.
In January TAFY will bring The Little
Theatre of the Deaf, a traveling troupe of deaf
actors rated, according to Olson, among the top
seven traveling troupes in the nation. They will
be at Lincoln Southeast High School Jan. 2-4.
"We're operating on the theory that good
children's theater is good theater for everyone.
So we hope all ages will attend and enjoy
Mayflower," Olson said.
