Oil price increases hit UNL;
supply officials anticipate 'jolt'
By Lynn Silhesek
It may be stretching things a bit, but within
six months, University secretaries could be
tying with strings what rubber bands once heid
together
The energy crisis, in one form or another, has
caused UNL purchasing officials to predict "a
jolt in our next go around" when office
supplies are re-ordered this summer.
Supplies with a petroleum base or requiring a
large amount of fuel in their production have
increased in cost, according to the officials.
The most noticeable increase has been in the
price of an oil-based duplicator paper, from last
year's 82 cents a ream to this year's $1.54 a
ream, according to Richard Bennett, purchasing
department director. University offices use
5,000 reams of the paper each month, he said.
Rubber bands,, used at the rate of 100 boxes
a month, have increased in price by two cents
per box, Bennett said. Polyethylene typewriter
ribbons, 1,440 of which are used monthly in
University offices, have risen in costs yet
undetermined, he said.
University agricultural experiment stations
need nearly 5,000 tons of fertilizer t year,
according to Bennett. The fertilizer is formed
using natural gas, he said.
According to Warren Sahs, assistant director
of the stations, fertilizer suppliers have moved
closer to their home locations, leaving dealers
with little fertilizer and price increases of more
than 100 per cent on what is available.
The stations also use pipe with a petroleum
base for building irrigation systems, Sahs said.
These pipes compose most of the 45 miles of
the stations' underground pipe systems, he
said, to which five miles are added every year.
Sahs said he has been assured by University
officials that the pipe supply will last through
the summer. "
The nation's schools' supplies of exam blue
books are being rationed now to avoid a later
shortage. The J. P. Lesh Paper Co., UNL blue
book distributor, announced in November 1973
the curtailment of the number of blue books
that would be sold to universities, according to
F.H. Lesh, company president. University
officials now may order the blue books only if
they need them immediately, Lesh .said.
Previously the books were ordered on a 6-12
month basis. Lack of pulp and lack of
petroleum-based chemicals used in processing
the paper caused the curtailment, he said.
According to l.esh, UNL has not yet been
cut back on the number of books ordered.
University officials requested and received
25,000 blue books in May, 1973, Lesh said.
"They (university officials) haven't been
curtailed in purchase so far, but may be next
time," he said.

Senate discusses
academic changes
Faculty Senate members will vote Tuesday on whether to
adopt the Senate Academic Planning Committee's proposal that
more University resources be directed toward nontraditional,
noncampus academic programs.
The .report, ..entitled "Resource -and Allocation: Essential
Functions of UNL", was prepared to meet changes not figured
into previous academic development programs, according to
committee chairman Max Larsen.
Changes include a;dedtning University enrollment and a
gr ea te r i n f e r est, i n Un i versi ty programjiihpwrv.by persons .older,,
than college age, according to the report.
At a Special Faculty Senate meeting Tuesday, Larsen said the
committee, following approval of the report, will begin evaluating
academic programs at UNL to determine whether each is geared
toward providing what he called a quality education for all
Nebraskans.
Recruitment of minotities as students and increased student
financial aid are ways contained in the report to increase the
availability of programs.
Existing undergraduate programs and graduate programs need
to be coordinated more closely, sharing programs and faculties,
according to the report.
Little separation of research and teaching faculties should
exist within these programs, according to the report.
