Student bus riders
oppose 25 cent fare
By Susie Reitz , , . . .,
Sixty East Campus students appeared before the Council on
Student Life (CSL) Thursday night to comment on the bus
situation and state their opinions of the proposal by Ron Wright,
UNL Business Manager, to raise inter-campus bus fare.
They brought petitions with 180 signatures of students
concerned about the bus situation who were unable to attend the
CSL meeting because of classes and other conflicts.
Wright's proposal outlined the history of the financial problems
with the inter-campus bus lines and lists possible solutions.
One proposed solution is to raise bus rates to 25 cents per ride.
If done by March 1, the service could break even for the rest of the
semester, Wright told CSL and the assembled students.
"Students think it's not fair to charge them 25 cents per ride
when they have already purchased bus passes with the condition
that they are valid for the 1974-75 school year," Mary Sokolik.
treasurer of Burr Hall East said at the meeting.
"Discrimination already occurs for ag, home ec, and other
students who have classes on both East and City campuses and
have to ride the bus," one student said. "If bus rates are raised it
will bring protests from students on both campuses," he added.
Henry Nuxoll, president of Burr West, read a letter from T.E,
Hartung, dean of the College of Agriculture, supporting students
who are seeking alternatives to the 25 cent fare.
Wright explained that the rate increase was the most viable
alternative his study committee could propose, but added that he
would welcome student input and other suggestions.
Wright agreed to meet with East Campus students and others
within the next two weeks to discuss the situation and the problem
of bus scheduling.
A committee of two CSL members and three student
representatives was formed to meet with Wright and work out
possible alternatives to a rate increase, which will be presented at
the CSL meeting next Thursday.
In other business, CSL heard a report from Publications Board
chairman Kelly Baker. Baker reported that the board is presently
working on a budget.
Status of Pub Board as a sub-committee of CSL was also
discussed.
