Mental health clinic
More students seeking help
Apparently, the nation's economic recession
has even affected the UNL Mental Health Clinic.
The number of patients coming to the clinic
last year increased 17 per cent, from 1,389
students in 1973 to 1,626 in 1974, Dr. Kenneth
Hubble, director of the clinic, said. He attributed
a major part of the increase to the present
economic conditions.
Different mental health problems accompany
an economic pinch, Hubble said.
He cited two women who came to the clinic
who were forced to quit college after the fall
semester because their parents lost their farms
and could not pay tuition.
Hubble said he thought there were other
students who did not return to UNL because of
financial troubles.
Recession problems
Other problems also stem from the present
recession. Hubble said some students who pay
their own tuition have either "stretched budgets
to make ends meet," or cut down on the number
of courses they take.
Changing budgets change living habits, he
continued, which can cause additional problems.
For instance, some students have moved from
residence halls to apartments, where they are
forced to alter their life styles.
Most students solve their problems when they
realize they are not alone and can just talk out
their worries, he said.
Various alternatives
"We support them, sit down and look at
various alternative solutions to their problems,"
Hubble explained, "and finally help them
understand they can conquer their problems."
He compared current college students'
problems to those he saw in the 1 930s
depression. Minor economic problems during
1969-70 and 1957-58 were "not as bad" as the
current recession, he added.
Another reason for the increase of students at
the clinic, Hubble said, is the recognition the
UNL Mental Health Clinic is receiving. Due to
Health Aides, Outreach workers, and other
members of the University Health Center staff,
more students are aware of the clinic.
Could get worse
Second semester doesn't look any better,
Hubble predicted, because the latter part of the
school year is usually worse.
"Many students struggle through first
semester and never resolve their problems,"
Hubble explained. "When second semester begins
and the situation is not improved, the roof comes
caving in and problems come crashing down."
Hubble stressed, however, that no student
feeling the economic pinch should feel
alone-'They are certainly not the only ones
facing money problems."
Model UN
convenes
Wednesday

Wednesday, the eighth annual Model United Nations (MUN) will
convene in the Nebraska Union.
MUN is sponsored by the Union Program Council. Both high
school and college students will participate.
Registration will begin at 4 p.m., followed by block meetings
with representatives from the United Nations at 6:30. The UN
representatives include Steven Day, a member of the United
Kingdom's permanent mission to the UN, and Hiro Shibuya, a
member of the UN Secretariat.
Thursday's session will begin at 1U a.m. with opening
ceremonies, including a keynote address by Sam Jaffec, a former
ABC correspondent.
MUN sessions will run through Saturday and are open to the
public.
