Administrators, students oppose student fees bill -r. v paqe 7 V ." -J Onilv Neb jskan editor Michael (O.J.) Nelson testifies at the Legislature Education Committee hearing on LB362, which concerns student fees. By Steve Arvanette The controversy over student fees could end if fees were made a pait of the credit hour tuition figure, according to State Sen. Ralph Kelly of Grand Island. His remarks came Friday during an interim study hearing by the Legislature's Education Committee. Several University administrators and student leaders were present at the hearing to oppose a pending legislative bill which would eliminate or restr ict the use of mandatory fees. UNL students currently pay $51.50 per semester in student fees with the bulk going toward University Health Center services and bond retirement. Proposed elimination of mandatory fees "poses a threat to the existance of the Daily Nebraskan," Editor-in chief Michael (O.J.) Nelson told the committee. Jan Kreuscher, piofessional advisor for the Daily Nebraskan, said the student press serves as a "market place of ideas" besides being a "bulletin board service." "Student fees insure this rnaiket place will not become an aiena for a small wealthy group," she said. Kreuscher added that if fees were dropped, the newspaper would lose its financial base. Sen Jerome Warner of Waverly told Kreuscher that he hoped "some reporters would consider the Daily Nebraskan a family newspaper" when writing in the future. Opposition to mandatory fees came from University of Nebraska-Omaha student Lang Anderson who advocated a voluntary system. He said the issue was how necessary fees are for a student to attain an education. Ken Bader, UNL's vice chancellor for student affairs, said fees serve to "enhance and enrich the educational experience of students." Charley Ohlen, a private citizen from Omaha, said he would dispute any contention fees provide a "cultural enrichment" for students. He said guidelines for fee use are repeatedly violated. "Why should people be paying for things they aren't getting," Kelly asked UNL Chancellor James Zumberge. Zumberge said fees work much like taxes to provide programs and services that are needed. r Arlo Guthrie IN CONCERT v, i l J FRIDAY, NOV. 2, 8pm.
