auards cited for drop in
By Jim Fuilsrton
Damage costs in UNL
residence halls have dropped
considerably over the past four
or five years, according to
Joseph Zannini, UNL assistant
director of housing in chari
maintenance and operations.
He said possible factors in
the damage decrease include
the end of the war in Vietnam
and the recent use of student
security guards.
During the war in Vietnam,
a lot of males who normally
would not attend college
enrolled at UNL to avoid the
draft, Zannini said.
"There is now a more
subdued, responsible group of
students :n the dorms," he
said.
Capt. Kenneth Markle,
assistant director of Campus
Police, said he thinks student
security has decreased
vandalism by 75. The
security guards which lock and
patrol the residence halls at
night, have only really started
to work efficiently this year,
he said.
Zannini explained residence
hall damage figures would be
misleading if he revealed them
for publication.
"Distinguishing accidental
from intentional damage is
usually impossible," he said.
He used the example of a
hall resident leaving the water
running in a bathroom sink.
After the water overflows,
covers the floor and causes the
tiles to loosen, should the
damage be attributed to
carelessness or intentional
vandalism?
"Every dollar that is spent
(for repairs) is student
money," he said. "Whenever
repairs are 'madereveryone in
that dorm pays for part of it
through their housing fees.
" can only bill individual
people whom I have substantial
evidence against or who admit
doing the damage," he said.
"We rAlly fry to be as fair '
as we possibly can, but the
students' general attitude is
that we're fair to the kids we
don't charge and unfair to the
ones we do charge."
Zannini said about $20,000
is spend each year on elevator
maintenance.
"Elevators end students
don't go together. We do our .
best to keep them running, but
there are lots of problems with
them," he said.
"Suppose a bunch of guys
are leaving for a football or
basketball game. There's
always some guy who will
forget something in his room,
right? Naturally, his friends
hold the elevator while the guy
runs back to get what he
forgot.
"Meanwhile, guys on other
floors kick and pound on the
elevator door while they wait,
and somehow these gentle love
taps tend to cause a
malfunction in the elevator."
Theft is another factor in
repair costs. "Kids are always
making off with souvenirs," he
said.
Last semester in the
Abel-Sartdoz newsletter, an
appeal was mads for residents
to quit stealing exit signs
placed in the halls.
According to housing
regulations, residents are not to
remove the screens from the
windows in their rooms.
Zannini gave reasons why.
"Once they're off they get
bent, ripped and kicked around
the room, intentionally or not.
