An informal survey of students on campus
Wednesday, indicates division, among ..students on tha
question of allowing additional businesses to locs:a in
the Nebraska Union. ,
Under a proposed plan to remodel the Union two nw
retail businesses would be set up in the Union. The plan
needs approval from the Union Board, Vice Chancellor
for Student Affairs Ken Bader and the Central Planning
Committee. . . v
'.'I'm against it," said Jack Slemsen, 'senior. "First,
they took away. our study lounge and put in Gateway-
Bank. They gave us another, but I'm just afraid that
soon there won't be any study areas. Probably no
bathrooms either."
"I don't like the idea at all," and Karen Rcivang,
graduate student. ,J'They took away the only decent
' place to study, and stuck us where students can run In
and out and make a lot of noise. It's ridiculous."
Some students said they liked the idea of businesses
In the Union because of the convenience.
"It doesn't bother me In the least," said Joyce
i Meyer. "Gateway Bank really helps because some
times it's the only place you can get money"
, "I don't mind businesses in the Union," said Bob
Hedrick, junior. "If they put a lot more in I might, but I
think It's just a real help to students."
Some students said they dislike the idea of putting
commercial businesses in the Union because It would
ruin the image of a "student" union. .... ,
"I don't see the Union as a place for business," said
Jim, Mazour, senior. "The student union Is a placa for
things like the lounge or the Crib places, where
students come to relax, not to be sold to."
"There's no reason for businesses In ths Union,"
said Robin Davis, senior. "With the downtown area sc
close, it's ridiculous for commercial businesses tc
Invade University property."
