Board of Regents,
legislators need
students' opinions
The following opinion was submitted by the ASUN
Legislative Liason Committee, which is charged with
maintaining communication between the Unicameral
and the UNL student body.
From the time you say your first Pledge of
allegiance in kindergarten until the time you say one
of your last at an American Association of Retired
People meeting you are taught, in this country, that
government is something that you should be in awe
of, something larger than yourself that you can have
little direct influence on.
The fact of the matter is, however, that you as an
individual can have a great deal of impact on the
decisions our representatives make. Speaking
specifically of the Nebraska Legislature, the average
legislator has no real way of knowing what the
people, who he represents, want him to do unless
someone tells him.
That's why professional lobbyists have so much
impact and that's why most senators are so desperate
to hear from you.
Right now there are six bills before the Legislature
that will directly affect you as a student.
At 2 p.m. today in 1009 Capitol Building, the
Constitutional Revision Committee will hold a public
suggestion box
hearing on a proposed constitutional amendment that
would place students on the Board of Regents.
The bill was proposed by the ASUN Legislative
Liaison Committee and was introduced by Sen.
Richard Marval of Hastings. Putting students on the
board with voting power will give students a direct
voice into the governing of the University. Come to
the hearing even if you don't intend to speak. Your
presence will directly influence the way the
committee members vote.
Next Wednesday the Appropriations Committee
will hold a public hearing on possible capital
construction on campus. If you're tired of classes in
Bessey Hall or the Law College, here's your chance to
explain your probJems to, someone who can do
something about it.

Bills which have had public hearings but are still
pending in committees include:
The governor's proposed tuition increase. This
would increase payments by 25 to 33 per cent or an
increase of $10 . for 15 credit hours per year.
the Uniform Residential Landlords and Tenants
Act will safeguard you as an off-campus tenant from
unfair practices by landlords. If you know specific
cases where you've been ripped off by a landlord, the
senators need to know about it.
-Sen. James Dickinson's bill which would stop the
collection of student fees except for those fees which
are used to pay bonded indebtedness on buildings.
Proponents of the bill see it as a slick way to get the
"homosexuals and communists" off campus,
unfortunately - at 1 the expense of -destroy ing - the
Nebraska Union, Intramurals and Recreation, Student
Health, the Daily Nebraskan and ASUN.
-Sen. Ernest Chambers' bill which would increase
the minimum wage in Nebraska and would take
students off the list of those to whom employers are
not required to pay minimum wages.
At 1 p.m. Saturday the Board of Regents meets in
the new NU Systems Building on East Campus.
Unless students show their concern, it looks like the
regents will reject a proposed alcohol consumption on
campus plan, an expanded coed visitation plan and, at
the same time, will increase the dormitory room and
board rates.
If you don't like that, get your body down there
and let them know, it. So forget what you've been
taught for the last 20 years or so. NrMfffigu
