UNICAP. . . Continued from p.2. Former volunteer Becky Breed, who has tested 15 children, described it as "scary." "You learn to bend and give and you find out you aren't right all the time by any means," she said. Social worker Marion Zook said the emotional emphasis of her field prevented her from seeing beyond broken homes into possible physical causes when examining, troubled children. She said she believes many mistakes are made by professionals because they don't understand other fields. Except for a faculty steering committee for "top-brass decisions" and faculty observation during testing, UNICAP students are on their own, Jensen said. Students in UNICAP, most are seniors, receive University credits for their work, Jensen said. Volunteers say they enjoy working with the children. Most children cooperate well during testing sessions, they said, although Breed added: "Sometimes you do have to know a few tricks and have a few toys." The social worker, who frequently visits the child's home, is probably the team member to come closest to the children's situtations, Jensen said. However, Zook said, "I guess I get more wrapped up in the cause than in a specific child." She added that she often "caught" feelings of frustration from the parents. Seeing children for only a week or two is as one of UNICAP's basic weaknesses, many volunteers ayi eed. "In terms of assessment, UNICAP can do quite a fine job... but we can only recommend," Krummcl said. "There's so much to know about a child," Breed said, "and two weeks isn't very much " Jensen said another majo'i problem now is getting more money su UNICAP uin see more children. "We've got to find some money somehow," Jensen said. "It's just too good of a program to let collapse." UNICAP currently runs on University and state funds. A service like UNICAP is important to Nebraska, Jensen said, because the state has many services that people don't know about and so don't use. rr : Crafts sale An arts and crafts sale, serving as a benefit for the University day care project, will be held in the Nebraska Union from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Lekachman speech The College of Business Administration and the University Convocations Committee will sponsor a talk by Professor Robert Lekachman today at 7:30p.m. at The Knolls Restaurant.
