There are probably as many answers
as there are individual Maryknoll
priests and Brothers. Some men are
deeply moved when they hear of
babies dying in their mother's arms
because of hunger or disease. Others
are distressed by the growing antag
onism and separation between the
rich and the poor nations. More are
concerned about the great injustices
that have been inflicted upon the
poor by those who possess wealth
and power to an excessive degree.
Others look to learn from peoples
who have grown up with a different
mentality than that which is theirs.
All feel that the only solution to the
crises th3t threaten to split men
asunder is the love of God as shown
in the life of His Son, Jesus Christ.
This love of God urges men to go
forward and be missioners so men
can love one another. What could be
your reason for joining Maryknoll?

with your life - here's your chance to prove it

Evaluation examines
buildings' cleanliness
By Mary Shackelton
Campus buildings, like football teams, are rated. And, in the
casa of Andrews Hall, ratings can be misleading.
A maintenance evaluation by Physical Plant workers
completed Oct, 1 divided campus buildings into three categories:
codes 1, 2 and 3. Code 1 buildings are administration buildings,
new buildings and buildings which the public uses frequently,
such as Sheldon Art Gallery and Kimball Recital Hall. Classroom
qnd other building; make up Code 2. Most campus buildinqs,
including Andrews Hall, fall into this cateaory. Coda 3 buiMings
are older and are more likely to be replaced soon such as Richards
and Architecture Halls.
The amount and degree of cleaning done distinguishes the
three categories. Code 1 buildings hsve an 85 cleanliness rating.
Physical Plant Director Harley Schrader explained that if there
were 100 cleaning items to be done, 85 would bs dona on a
day-to-day basis. Code 2 buildings have an 80 cleanliness rating,
and coda 3s have a 75 rating.
The maintenance evaluation, part of an NU management study
to increase efficiency and reduce operational costs, began with
the custodial department since it has the most employes,
Schrader said. That department has 180 employes.
After the study was complete, supervisors assigned the number
of custodians suggested by the study to each building.
Evaluation results and reality met in Andrews Hall. Three
full-time custodians were assigned to the building, just as the
evaluation suggested.
But custodians and their supervisor, John Dzerk, have
complained they did not have enough people to keep the bidding
as clean as it should be.
Schrader said it was decided that the building would be
cleaned up to the 85 rating of code 1 buildings for second
semester.
But the first-class shape didn't last for long, he said. 'The
custodians barely had time to finish daily tasks."
Custodians working eight hours are expected to spend six
hours on daily tasks-sweeping, wiping desk tops and general
cleaning and one and one-half hours on periodic tasks, such as
replacing lights, buffing and mopping floors and doing extra
restroorn cleaning, Schrader explained.
Supervisors' reports showed that the custodians in Andrews
Hall were on schedule and were doing their tasks well. Because of
the building's constant use and resulting dirt the custodians were
unable to clean the basement for about two weeks, Schrader said.
Other floors 3re cleaned before the basement, he added, and
the janitors had just enough time to clean them.
Schrader said the "somebody else will clean it up" attitude
expressed by some students and staff is disheartening and
depressing to dustodians.
"The, qwstfodianT dp a .gooti jpbrtd it dofS get depressing to
come back day after day and find the same kinds of messes," he
said.
He cited spilled coffee and pop and cigaret ashes on floors as
frequent offenses. He noted that there is a University regulation
prohibiting smoking, but that it is seldom enforced.
"If worse comes to worse we may have to remove the vending
operation from Andrews," he said.
The English Dept. is cooperating with custodians by enforcing
smoking regulations, or reminding students to use ash trays, and
by asking students to be more careful with litter, Schrader said.
John Robinson, English Dept. chairman, had his secretary
draw some "Keep Andrews Beautiful" posters, which were put up
in classrooms.
Last Monday, the building showed signs of "coming back,"
Schrader said. ,
Black history week
A march on R Street at noon today will begin activities of
Black History week, now through next Monday. Such events as
speakers, soul concerts, a talent show, rap sessions and parties are
also planned.
The week's activities are designed to be educational for both
blacks and whites and to show some of the cultural and historical
background of blacks.
Leanette Merrel, UNL student who has helped organize the
week's activities, said, "This week will be the one time during the
year when all the black people at the U. can get together, and the
only time we're acknowledged by the U. and its students."
