Plans to increase
bus fare criticized
By Chuck Beck
University adiniiiist i atois apparently have ignored
student-initialed pioposals to finance the ailing UNL bus system.
Bun Hall president Henry Nuoll. said.
Chip Lowe, a member of a five-member informal committee
,-rolesling the fare, said the students organized after spring vacation
in response to Business Manager Ron Wright's proposal to increase
bus lares. The laic currently is set at 10 cents a ride or free with a
special bus pass that may be obtained with a parking pel mil.
YViight's pioposal would eliminate entirely the pass and increase
bus laie to 25 cents a lide.
Lowe said CSL lecominendations submitted to the UNL
adminisiiaiioii at the Leb. 27 meeting were much more attractive
than Wnghi's pioposal.
Among the ( SI pioposals weie complete university suppoit for
the bus slem. paiiial ndci and paitial university support, and
complete Mippoi t Mom student lees.

"Mils means se either must leducc spending lor each program

Plant maintenance budget
Anoihei budget thai could finance the bus system is the $5.
million )lant iiiaiiileiiance budget, Wiight said. He added that the
maintenance budget, which cuircnllv is fioen.does not icflect the
inflated ulilily rale increase;, that UNL laces this yeai.
Bui Nuxoll said the increased bus tare, should not be passed to
students, who he said could pay $50 to SI 50 e.xtia next year.
"We don't agree (with Wright's pioposal) that students living on
east campus should be penalized for having to take classes on west
campus," Nuxoll said.
Yearly bus pass
Instead ol the increased bus fare, Nuxoll said the committee
advocated a plan where students could buy a SI 5 yearly bus pass.
Additional financing should come from the university, Nuxoll
added.
Nuxoll said T.I.. Hurtling, dean of the Colletie of Aiiriculture.
lias agreed to partly finance bus operations out of the college's
budget.
Haitung said he would agree to partial financing of the bus
operation it other colleges provided an equal amount of funds.
Although he said he knew of" no definite date that Zumberge
would make a final recommendation, Wright said the NU Board of
Regents will hear current proposals at their meeting this weekend,
umberge said the regents would make a final decision from his
recommendation at their May meeting.
