Students living in UNL residence halls can expect a S95 increase in their room and board rates next semester. However, the resolution passed by the NU Board of Regents Saturday, is a $45 cut from the original SI 40 proposed increase presented to the board. Introduced by Regent Robert Koefoot, the resolution passed with a provision that the Board of Regents would decide later how to make up the S45 per occupant deficit. The $5.50 per day rate charged for room and board is still a bargain in these days, according to UNL Chancellor James Zumberge. "However, something must make up the deficit," he said. . The deficit is the $45 per occupant that will be lost by the passing of the resolution. That figure is based on an 86 per cent occupancy rate in residence halls. According to Zumberge, an increased percentage of occupancy in the residence halls could take care of some of the deficit, but additional measures, possibly cuts in meals, may be necessary. Ken Bader, vice chancellor for student affairs, said residence halls "pared costs to the bottom," and saved as much as $500,000. All operating costs and original construction bonds are paid by the student room and board fees under a contractual arrangement with NU, Zumberg, said. The residence halls are self-supporting and pay a fee to the UNL Administration for management, he said. McCollister: Confidence needed Continued from p. 1 On the economy, M.cCollister also said "look at it this way, there are about as many people working now as a year ago; the new people coming onto the job market have just not been assimilated into it." He said, "The biggest thing we need is a rekindling of that kind of confidence (that comes with an abundant economy.)" He said that the proposed tax cut would help the economy as people feel freer to spend money which in turn can be used by business to hire more people and put more money into the system. Wage, Price controls doubtful Rumors that wage and price controls will again be imposed, possibly as early as July, were dismissed by McCollister. He said -that although the Democratic caucus voted for the controversial proposals, the majority had been small and it was "quite questionable" whether they would pass on the floor. McCollister said the controls would "impede development of corrective measures." Butz articulate spokesman Secretary of Agriculture Earl Butz, reportedly on the way out of the Ford administration, has been an "articulate spokesman for agriculture," according to McCollister. "The thing I fault him for is that he sometimes pitted the farmer against the consumer. That's poor strategy considering there are many more consumers." McCollister described consumers and farmers as partners." 'natural McCollister offered no comment on the recent convictions of former Nixon aides H.R. Haldeman, John Ehrlichman, John Mitchell and Robert Mardian. Neither would he comment on the release of John Dean, Kerbert Kalmbach and Jeb Stuart Magruder, who were convicted in the Watergate scandal and released after testifying before the Grand Jury and Senate committees investigating the case. 17 Bbmt Ateofe 73 PLCS Platoon Leaders Class.
