ASLV warns RHA
in election squabble
Residence Hall Association (RHA) members were warned in an
ACT TXT C- AsmAmt ninU iUnt linlpGC tVlPA TPCnlvfi
their election difficulties, they wiirbe in danger of having their
ASUN recognition revoked.
The resolution concerned the election squabble raised when
Ron Hutchinson challenged the seven vote RHA presidential
victory of Sue Ihne because he said he was denied the opportunity
to vote at the Cather-Pound-Niehardt Residence Center.
Election ballots at the complex had been misplaced for an hour
during meal time and Hutchinson said that was the only time he
could have voted.
RHA referred the matter to the ASUN Student Court by
refusing to accept the appointment of a Chief Justice for their own
judicial body, preventing the convening of the RHA court in favor
of the "less biased? ASUN court.
The resolution passed by the senate informed RHA that, by not
convening the court, they are in violation of their ASUN-approved
constitution.
Former RHA president and ASUN senator, Tim Evensen asked
the senate to allow the ASUN court to handle the problem.
"I feel, and so does the (RHA) council, that the ASUN court
can hear the case and would be more objective," Evensen said. "It
vas my fault that a chief justice had not been appointed before,
but the RHA court had not been used for two years and I felt that
the ASUN court was more effective anyway."
The senate also established an ad-hoc committee to study area
bookstores. First Vice President Mary Jenkins was charged, 'with
appointing the members. ,
Another resolution, setting up an orientation session tor
senators, was passed after an amendment was added which changed
the session from a mandatory meeting for senators to one they
were "strongly encouraged" to attend.
The rules and procedure for the senate were made permanent
after one week of temporary status. . ..
In other action, ASUN President Jim Say delivered what he said
was "in some ways was a pep talk and in some ways a criticism,
asking senators not to be afraid of controversy. Although the
speech had been labeled his "State of the Campus" address, Say
told the senators that "it was a bit less pretentious than that.
Desian center credit
for urban developers
Six UNL students are helping redesign areas of Omaha for urban
redevelopment projects and at the same time are fulfilling
graduation requirements in architecture and geography.
The four architecture and two geography students are
participating in a five-year-old academic program called the
, Community Design Center (CDC). u
The- CDC is operated by a ten-member board of directors who
have formed the Community Development Center, Inc., a
nonprofit corporation. The board is composed of university faculty
members, members of the Omaha section of the American Institute
of Architects (AIA) and members of the Omaha community, CDC
Coordinator David Allor said.
Allor, who is also an assistant professor of Community ana
Regional Planning, was appointed July 1 by the dean of the College
of Architecture to coordinate the CDC program.
Preliminary work
Allor said students research existing area-conditions pertaining
to an urban redevelopment project and then prepare a preliminary
design. He said the preliminary design is submitted to a government
or social action agency, which may then seek financing from
individual donors, banks or governmental bodies, it a project
receives financing, a registered architect must complete a tinal
design, Allor said. , . .
State law provides that architects must have work experience
after graduation from college and then must pass a professional
examination to become registered, Allor explained.
Although students must rely on registered architects to
' complete a project, the CDC officers almost function like a
professional architect's office and "educational studio, Allor said.
Beneficial services
' "The work of the CDC office is provided only to persons or
croups who could not otherwise afford such professional services,
Allor said. "Senior and graduate students become involved in a
project when there's a real chance of getting it built.
One project students have worked on this semester is the lark
East Redevelopment Han, Allor said. Architecture students have
Hr9un anions for such things as a shopping center, a medical
buildine. i senior citizen's recreation center . and store-front
restoJaUon along certain streets, according to a written summary
of CDC work activities. No grant applications have been made by
the nonprofit corporation to finance the Park East Redevelopment
A great application, however, has been made to the Game and
Parks Commission for another CDC project called Pleasantvjew
Hilltop Park and Multipurpose Center. This project involves
student design of park equipment and for a day-care and medical
center, Allor said.
Architectural training
Jim Ebmeier, an architecture student participating in the CDC,
said the work he does "is the type of work an architect is expected
t0 Geaphrstudent Robert Abbott said he took the course in
lieu of other geography courses, because of on-the-job experience it
woufd rive him. He said he mapped the Park East area which is the
Trea bounded by 24th to 28th streets and Douglas to Uavcnwoith
streets in Omaha for such things as traffic patterns and industrial
from professional organizations. He said he wanted to keep dollar
amounts confidential because the CDC has applied this year for
two federal grants and methods of financing would be changed if
the grants were approved,
