The ASUN president
iook io traveling this
summer, and the travels
will continue until after
the November general
elections, President Ron
Clingenpeel said. .
Clingenpeel spent July
22-28 in Bassett, Ains
worth, Rushville and Val
entine telling western
Nebraskans that students .
are individuals, and ask
ing their support for Con
stitutional Amendment
No. 1 on the November
ballot, he said.
The amendment would
allow student body pre
sidents at UNL, the Uni
versity of Nebraska at
Omaha and the University
of Nebraska Medical Cen
ter to sit as nonvoting
members of NU Board of
Regents.
"It was a 'feeler trip,'
to see how things would
go," Clingenpeel said.
The next is scheduled for
early September, he said,
and will include other
ASUN executives f?nd
senators.
- Sharon Johnson, a sen
ior in Home Economics, is
first vice president; and
Dave Howlett, a senior in
. intergrated studies, is sec
ond vice president.
,. Clingenpeel said resi
dents in western Nebraska
often feel ignored by the
University.
'One man told me it
emphasized to western
heard anyone from the
University who wasn't
asking for . money," he
said.
He said stereotypes of
students as radicals are
breaking down and he
empnasized to western
Nebraskans that students
come in "aii Shapes, SiZeS
and colors."
Executives also decided
during the summer that
ASK (Associated Student
Ko-op) cards will be
cheaper this fail, Clingen
peel said.
Cards will go for $3, or
$2 to renew a 1973 card,
he said, down from the $5
fee charged since the
program's inception
January, 1973.
The Ko-op was set up as
a discount union for stu
dents. The card entitles
holders to 5-20 per cent
discounts at cooperating
merchants, including
liquor store, restaurants,
gas stations and clothing
shops.
Clingenpeel said 600
students bought cards last
year compared with 100
the spring semester of
1973.
He said they hope the
lower price will encourage
sales.
Clingenpeel said ASUN
executiv.es have been
studying the report of the
UNL fee allocation board
this summer.
The board was created
last summer by the . re
gents to recommend fee
support for University
programs and organiza
tions. Students pay up to
$61.50 per semester in
University Program and
Facilities Fees, depending
on the number of credit
hours for which they're
enrolled. That's a $10 per
semester increase over
last year.
Before the boards'
existenpe fee allocations
were reviewed or changed

basis. . -
Five organizations not
recommended by the
board for financing were
added by UNL Chancellor
James Zumberge, as is his
privelege.
The organizations are
Alumni Association,
Placement Office, Over
seas Opportunities Cen
ter, Flights and Study
Tours and New Student
Programs.
Clingenpeel said ASUN
believes those should not
be financed by the fees,
most of them because they
are not of direct benefit to
enough fee-paying stu
dents. He said ASUN execu
tives are writing a report
they will submit to the
senate for approval and
student comment.
' 'We're looking for sup
port," he said, "so we can
go to the Legislature and
ask for tax . dollars for
those programs."
The chancellor 'thought
the programs were neces
sary, Clingenpeei said,
and had no alternative
money source. ,
If tax dollars were avail
able for those program?,
the University wouldn't
feel compelled to use
student fees, he said.
ASUN organized stu
dies pn low-income and
University housing short
ages, and prices at book
stores that serve the Uni
versity. . Those reports will not
be available, he said, until
they come before the
senate.

David Rasmussen .
. new student lawyer.
Lawyer to prevent,
not solve problems
ASUN student lawyer David Rasmussen
said he'd rather keep 10 students from legal
trouble than help one out of it.
Rasmussen, a December 1972, graduate of
the NU Law School, took over his duties Aug.
1,
The program began November 1973, when
attorneys Bruce Hamilton and Doug German
shared the full-time position.
It is financed with University Program and
Facilities Fees.
Rasmussen said he will organize seminars
on topics he thinks are of particujar concern
to students.
The most important are landlord-tenant
laws, operation of the small claims court, and
drunk driving laws.
He will deliver the seminars to dormitories
and Greek houses and any other organiztions
that request him.
Rasmussen said he will spend the rest of
his time answering individual students
questions.
Everything is confidential, he said, and ail
advice will be given in person, not over the
phone.
"I'm wiling to discuss anything with any
student," he said.
Rasmussen has been a member of the
Wagener and Youngs general practice law
firm for the past 1 Vi years.
