According to Thomas, the document
will not become public information until
it has been investigated by the Civil
Rights Commission and a decision has
been reached.
Complaints charging several colleges
and universities with sex discrimination
have been filed with the HEW office in
Kansas City, according to Ralph Ander
son of HEW. According to Anderson,
the HEW office will give the col
leges and universities a chance to reply
to the charges and correct any situations
of discrimination.
Breckenridgesaid complaints pertain
ing to certain departments have been
distributed to those departments. He
said he received the letter from the ad
hoc committee a few days ago and is still
studying the charges.
According to the Lincoln Star report,
the overall percentage of women faculty
members at UNL (1 1 .5 per cent) has not
risen 1 per cent during the two-year
period between 1971-72 and 1973-74,
and on the UNO campus, the percentage
has declined from 20.7 per cent to 18.9
percent.
Women in 'lower ranks'
Statistics filed by the ad hoc commit
tee said female faculty members tend to
be in the lower ranks.
At UNL, women make up 5.1 percent
of the full professors and 19 per cent of
the assistant professors. At UNO, 41.9
per cent of the instructors are female;
18.6 per cent are assistant professors

available women and those already
associated with the University in some

hiring procedures which eliminate
female candidates,
failure to promote women,
unequal pay between men and women
clerical workers.
possible discrimination by the per
sonnel office in requiring students to
sign a form giving up the right to

spouse's education.
failure to adequately support and
fund women's programs, studies, coun
seling and day-care centers.

You win do it, too. So far over 650,000 other people have done it. People who
have different jobi, different IOs, different interests, different educations have
completed the course. Our graduates are people from all walks of life. These
people have all taken a course developed by Evelyn Wood, a prominent
educator. Practically all of them at least tripled their reading speed with equal or
better comprehension. Most have increased it even more.
Think for a moment what that means. All of them-even the ilowest-now read
an average novel in less than two hours. They read an entire issue of Time or
Newsweek in 35 minutes. They don't skip or ekim. They read every word. Thuy
use no machines. Instead, they let the material they're reading determine how
fast they read. And mark this well: they actually understand more, remember
more, and enjoy more than when they read slowly. That's rightl They
understand more. They remember mere. They enjoy more. You can do the same
thing-the place to learn more about it is at a free speed reading lesson.
This is the same course President Kennedy had his Joint Chiefs of Staff take.
The staff of President Nixon completed this course in June 1870. The same one
Senators and Congressmen have taken.
Com to a Mini Lesson and find out. It is free to you and you will leave with I
better understanding of why it works. One thing that might bother you about
your reading speed is that someone might find out how slow it is. The
instructors at the Evelyn Wood Reading Dynamics Free Speed Reading lesson
will let you keep your secret. It's true we practice the first step to improved
reading it a Mini-Lesson and w will increase your reading speed on the spot, but
the results will remain your secret. Pian to attend a free Mini-Lesson and learn
t!iat it is possible to read 3-4 5 times faster, with comparable comprehension.
