Alma Bljck came to the
University ot Nebraska-Lincoln
from Dallas, Texas, to see snow
and to be involved with the
Ontennial Education Program.
A passerby is likely to see
her on campus ihis summer
dressed in jeans, with a scarf
tied around her hear . . .
planting flowers.
Miss Bhck is the only girl
doing outdoor wcr! for the
grounds department. She
plants flowers and other
ground cover, waters wh.it she
plants and the existhg
vegetation and helps era for
the nursery.
A senior in ar, Miss Black
lived in Texas until she came to
Nebraska as a freshman. She
said she doesn't find many
differences between the two
states, as "they're both
basically flat," but she said
Lincoln is friendlier than her
home town of Dallas and
colder in the winter.
Doesn't skate
Although she doesn't ski or
ice skate, she said she has
enjoyed looking at the
Nebraska snow during the
winter. "I am getting a little
tiritd of it, though".
Miss Black applied for a job
as janitor when in the market
for summer work. She changed
her plans when she found the
Regents okay handball
tennis, basketball court
The Board of Regents authorized the construction of
ntw recreational facilities on East Campus at their Saturday
meeting.
The recreational facilities are planned for an area east of
the College of Dentistry and north of the married student
housing.
The first phase of construction, estimated to cost
SI 74,000, would provide six lighted tennis courts, five
lighted handball courts, three lighted basketball courts
which during the winter could be converted into an ice
skating rink. A fireplace and tenches also will be built.
The first phase now can Ix funded from accumulated
student fees specifically designated for recreation building
use.
Long range recreational plans call for nine flag football,
six softball and two soccer fields and later a golf driving
range, putting greens, an archery range and parking area.
Money for these projects, expected to bring the total cost
to about $330,000, currently is not available.
open job with the grounds
department
Miss Black is not a stranger
at working the earth. She had a
vegetable garden for two years
in Nebraska and she also has
de-tasseled corn. "I guess I'm
pretty lucky with the things I
grow," she said. "I've become
.interested in growing things
shire I moved to Nebraska."
Miss Black works only half
the day with the crew. She
goes to summer school in the
morning the in the afternoon,
she's off to the city campus,
east campus or the nursery.
Enjoys outdoors
Miss Black enjoys being
outside and getting the exercise
her job supplies. She said the
only bad part about working
outdoors is heat She also said
she enjoys getting dirty.
Being the only girl on the
grounds crew leads to
questions. She said she has not
gotten comments from fellow
workers but "people who see
me working stop and ask me
why I wanted to do this."
Dave Biskup, forman of the
UNL nursery, said Miss Black
"does her work really well. . .
she seems to love outdoor
work and the men she works
with all get along well with her,
and she with them." Biskup
said he would be willing to
have other women working
with Miss Black and thinks
others will be hired due to the
high num!x;r of students
applying for jobs.
Miss Black's experience with
the grounds department this
summer has made her think
about enrolling in horticulture
courses, but she doesn't think
she will be changing her major
she said.
