UNL's new American Indian coun
selor said he had to go to college before
he finally found persons who treated
him for who he is, not for what tie is.
Gordon Kitto, -.who replaced Karen ,
Bulleras the American Indian .counselor
at the Minority' Affairs Off ice," said the
problems he faced as an Indian have
been very subtle, such -as not being
invited to parties as a youngster because
he was an Indian, Kitto said. Even in
high school, Indian students stayed, in
Indian groups, he said.
' 'Members of dominant white society
are in the mainstream of life so they do
not have to meet all the obstacles
minority members must face,". Kitto
said. .
White society members have some
tools to cope with their problems, he
said.
, "The minority students might have
the same tools, but after being put down
by society for so long, they are afraid to
use them."
Effective program
The UNL Minority Affairs program is
effective according to Kitto. The coun-'
selors in the program have insights they
can share with the minority students
because they are in the same ethnic
group, he said.
i!n. IA ho ran tost helD the Indian
student' by "just being an Indian and
counselor, Kitto said, the interaction
between -Indian students and himself
have been limited because of the Indian
student boycott of the minorities affairs
office. . . .
' The' boycott was sparked by the
resignation of American Indian coun
selor Karen Buller in late May.
Most of the problems Kitto said he
has dealt with as a counselor have been
financial aid and academic problems.
Barrier for students
Kitto said there is a barrier between
himself and Indian students. He sees
the barrier as "a culmination of many
problems the University has had since
hiring a counselor for Indian students.
'.'When I talk to students or counsel
them, it doesn't nescessarily take place
in four walls, but wherever the situation
arises," said Kitto. "My counseling
isn't limited to an 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. day,
five days a week. It's a 24-hour-a-day,
seven-day-a-week job. "
Kitto has two bachelor degrees, a
master's degree and is currently
working' on a Ph.D. in educational
administration.

Fee Board
to discuss
bylaws
v.
.The Poo Alinr.atinns Board will discuss and
make more specific the criterion and bylaws of the
board, as defined by last year's board, at their
meeting at 5 p.m. Thursday in the Nebraska
Union, according to board members.
Business at the last Thursday's meeting
included the election of Marguerite Boslaugh as
chairman of the board and Gary Martin as
secretary. . ' ,
At that meeting1 the board decided, to hire a
reco'rding secretary to work from three to five
hours a week doing the board's paperwork.
Boslaugh said she hopes the board can spend
much of its time during the first, semester
researching projects. She said she also hopes the
board meetings will become more open to the
student body through better publication of fee
requests and meeting agendas.
The board is aiso considering publishina an
informational pamphlet sometime in the future to
tell students how much of their student fee money
is allocated to whom, and to outline the board's
duties and responsibilities.
The first formal business on the year's agenda,
Boslaugh said, will be at the Oct. 24 meeting when
representatives of the Engineers Executive Board
will request more fees for its projects.
