The Summer Nebraskan, published by the School of Journalism for the first eight weeks of the summer session, provided summer session students a look at what was happening on campus. A brief look at some of its headlines may help fill in those who, like the Dairy Nebraskan, were not around this summer.

ASUN faces housecleaning ASUN President Jim Say said he would be spending most of his summer doing "some housekeeping." Say said he is looking into restructuring the ASUN book exchange so that it does not lose money as it has in the past mostly from ' books we can t account ior. He said he also is considering an on-campus bike registration and a student workshop for off-campus students to deal with landlord-tenant relations and other apartment problems. ; "We're going to try and work on finding what sorts of problems we want to consider for the fall, he said. Grim summer employment picture for UNL students The lack of summer jobs for students hit not only Lincoln, but the Scholarships and Financial Aids OfficeEmployment Coordinator Doug Severs said his office, which lists jobs on and off campus, received an average of 10 to 15 job openings a week, compared with 26 jobs per week last summer. A spokesman for a firm providing temporary help for businesses said they increased the number of college students they employ by 10 per cent. Students not finding full-time jobs may have turned to this work, she said, becaur? they decided temporary jobs were better than none. Insulation study shows campus hot spots . Agricultural and Keim Halls and the Foods and Nutrition Building on East Campus, and the Power Plant and Engineering Center on City Campus are the hot spots at UNL. At least that's what the thermograms said. " Similar to aerial photographs, thermograms show Lincoln buildings appearing in various shades of gray, from near black to near white. Buildings appearing black are well-insulated; those appearing white have a high heat loss. The photographs gave no new information, but they did confirm that the UNL buildings scheduled for insulation need it, said Tom Trumble, physical plant construction engineer. The thermograms also showed that Behlen Physics Lab and the Administration Building on City Campus were the cooler f UNL buildings. New students join faculty for introductory retreat Taxable responses from participants of a May retreat for faculty and students have led to the planning of two more retreats. Gene Harding, director of the Teaching and Learning Center and coordinator of the retreats, said dates have not been set, but that he hopes they will be before the middle of September. The overnight retreat, which was at a camp near Milford, brought together 36 students and faculty members, in an informal setting, he said. The retreat was funded by private foundations. Biological station opens for study UNL's new Biological Field Station about 10 miles northeast of Ogallala in western Nebraska, was occupied by faculty members and 28 students who pioneered there during the first five-week summer session. The university obtained a lease on the 40-acre site last spring, ending several years of search for a suitable location in western Nebraska where students would be able to study plant and animal life in their natural settings. . Students agreed that the new field, station was a bright addition to UNL's program in the life sciences. "It beats the smell of formaldehyde," said one student. "Here we can gather our own biological specimens for laboratory use, instead of relying on preserved specimens provided in the laboratories on campus." Summer enrollment sets record Enrollment at UNL for this year's summer sessions was the highest ever, according to F. William Sesow, associate director of summer sessions. The 14,472 students enrolled for the presession, eight-week session and the two five-week sessions, was an 11 per cent increase over last year's total of 1 3,022, he said. Sesow said he is not sure what caused the increase, but that in talking to colleagues around the country he learned that they "experienced similar phenomen". Satisfied Data collected from summer students "indicated students were quite satisfied" with the course offerings, he said. "We felt we offered a fine schedule of courses," he said, "but, of course that's not a reason for the increase nationally." Sesow said he could be pessimistic and say that more students took summer classes becuase they could not find jobs. He understands, he said, that during the Depression college enrollments also 'increased. However, he added, he hoped this was not the reason. Take longer Another reason for the increase, he said, could be the increase in the number of "drop-in students" who have jobs and take longer to earn a degree. Summer sessions are "beautifully designed for that," he said. The 1,763 students enrolled in this year's presession was an increase of 427 students over last summer, and the 471 students enrolled in the eight-week session was 196 more than last year. The 6,934 enrolled for the first five-week session, and the 5,304 for -the second five-week session, exceeded last year's enrollment by 468 students and 259 students, respectively. tad TsJkxwjfe fiDQUD By checking "yes" on line 8 of your tax return, you will designate $1 ($2 on a joint return) to help finance the 1976 Presidential Election.
