Regent outlines year's goals
The newly elected chairman
of the Board of Regents said he
sees the board's major task for
1974 as continuing
implementation of the
University's Five-Year Plan
Toward Excellence.
Kermit Hansen said he feels
the University is making
progress in the academic goals
set out in the two-year-old
study, but the board must
maintain "the proper financial
support and an atmosphere
that leads to excellence."
The Omaha regent said part
of that is included in the
board's task immediately
ahead: working out the
University's budget with the
Legislature and governor.
But he said the rest must be
determined as the year goes
along.
Hansen was elected board
chairman by fellow regents at
the board's monthly meeting
Jan. 5 in Lincoln. He has been
on the board 3'2 years since
being appointed by
then-Governor Norbert
Tiemann to finish out the term
of Omahan Richard Herman.
Hansen is now serving his
own six-year term since his
election in 1972.
He said he sees the role of
board chairman as a "point of
communication to the boaid."
Kermit Wagner of Schuyler
was elected vice'ehairman and
Dr. Robert Prokop of Wilber
was named regents'
representative to the University
of Nebraska Foundation.
Also at the meeting, the
regents instructed NU
administrators to do what they
could to see that Nebraska
veterinary students at Colorado
State University were not
phased out of that school's
program.
UML Chancellor James
Zumberge told the board that
he had heard unofficial rumors
that the Colorado Legislature
was pressuring Colorado
university administrators to
open up more slots tor stat"
residents, which would rvjn
eliminating out of ;t uc
students.
NU ow l as agreements
with five Midwestern
veterinary schools that allow
more than 70 Nebraska
students to attend the schools
vhk pey?'j ir.state tuition.
NU pick- up the tab for the
balance-
T he Regonts signed an
agreement Saturday with
Oklahoma State to admit two
to fivs Nebraska students into
its picgrarn each year for the
next ton years.
Thu regents also saw a
presentation hy NU President
P.O. V.atner and his special
distant. Jack McBrid.;, about
SUN - State- University of
Nebias'xa.
Long ii the planning, the
program is about, to bo
financed by a $1 million
federal Office of Education
grant. Varner said. Private
foundations ore considering
matching that gutnt, he Siiid.

Tne courses may apply to a
two-year associate degree or
four-year degree from NU,
Varner said.
Varner said the project has
drawn favorable national
attention as a thorough,
innovative approach to
education for people of all
ages.
Psychology and accounting
will piobably be the first two
courses offered, according 10
McBride. Each course will cost
about $500,000 to produce, he
said, but NU plan:; to market
them nationally to recover the
cost.
He said the course material
was prepared by panels of
educators and presented by
professional actors.
