.
Residence directors speak out,
for differentiated housing plan ;
By Charts Johnson
Four UNL residence directors offered
their continued support of the
Differentiated Housing Task Force proposal
in recent interviews. The proposal, written
by a subcommittee of the Council on
Student Life, would offer a choice of
alcohol and visitation policies and special
interest areas to students living in residence
halls.
Each residence director said he believed
the differentiated housing proposal was at
the heart of making halls more attractive to
students, along with increased maintenance
improvements.
The proposal was brought before the
Board of Regents in March but was not
discussed because of a pending lawsuit
brought against the regents by ASUN and
the Residence Halls Assoc (RHA) pretesting
visitation and alcohol policies.
ASUN and RHA have dropped the suit, at
least temporarily, in hopes that the regents
will discuss the proposal at their April 20
meeting.
Commenting on the proposal, Pound Hall
Residence Director Mary Kramer said, "The
obvious way to make dorms more attractive
would be to allow use of alcohol in the
rooms and also guarantee space for people
who don't want alcohol."
Kramer said there is a need for the
expansion of visitation hours, increased
funds for maintenance improvement and
help in building interpersonal relationships
between the residents.
"There should be set up enough of a
academic atmosphere so everyone is happy,"
she said.
"By continuing to regulate hours and
alcohol we inhibit the persona! growth of
the student," she said. "I think we will come
up with some formula so that we could
maintain some kind of academic atmosphere
while allowing the use of alcohol and
increased visitation."
"If the regent's concerns are in regard to
students managing themselves, perhaps
etcohol could be tried on a trial basis," she
said.'"
In, predicting a slight drop in occupancy
for Pound Hall next year, she listed privacy
and noise as the factors most influencing
residents to move out. She said she hopes
the regents will "get rid of the open door
and give us the flexibility to have a variety
of academic experiences in the dormitories."
John Humlicek, a residence director of
Abel Hail, said he sees i.hs uirferentlatsd '
housing proposal as a "step in the right
direction." - "
He favors liberalized rules s ef.u
regulations, along with more extensive
planning with the students. "But is shcu!::Vr,
be in the hands of the regents," he salt),
"They shouldn't be worrying themselves .
with simple rules and regulations iru ?
dormitories on a single campus ir th :
University system." , '
He said he especially favors the aspects t
the report's proposal that would allow eot-,
and special interest residence hall floors.
Humlicek doesn't foresee a rise in.
residence hall occupancy next year. He citd
the increasing cost with no real changes in
the? environment and the rules and
regulations as prime factors in the
occupancy of the halls remaining at its
current 85,
Due to UNL policies on alcohol and
visitation. "You're more apt to have a
discipline record on file at the University if
you live in a residence hall," he said. . '
Mike Eyster, Schramm Hall resicl.
director, favors physical renovation of hisf
hall to attract more students.
"One of the big things, especially in
Harper-Schramm-Smith, would be carpeting
the hallway," he said. He also would like
sound insulating of the study carrels on each.
floor.
He said he supports the differentiated;
housing proposal because it "allows students
expanded options for different living
environments. That's the way the University.'
has to go," he said. "Not everyone wants ths
same environment."
"I think there's potential for a different
alcohol and visitation policy' he said. "But
a bianket ok on alcohol wouldn't be the
answer to the problem. It would be
mistake for the Legislature to allow alcohol
and not give the Housing Office prerogatives
to implement regulations regarding T"
effects."
"I strongly back the Differentiated
Housing Task Force proposal,'! said Steve
Heldt, Harper Hall residence director.
He said he is most impressed by the
proposal's intent-the idea of various living
conditions In living units. "A little more
student responsibility wouldn't hurt
anyone," he said.
