Construction of the University of
Nebraska College of Nursing bldg. at the
University of Nebraska Medical Center
(UNMC) which began during the summer
of 1974 will encounter a three month
setback, according to UNMC ChanceUor
Robert Sparks.
. Completion of the building at 42nd and
Dewey Streets on the medical center
campus, once expected in October, is now
set for January, Sparks said.
"It's a matter of keeping the
construction on schedule," he said. "I must
stress that they are on a very tight schedule
and with a construction strike and delivery
delays, they have encountered some
setbacks."

Th $15 million bmldine is 70 per cent
financed by a federal grant with the
remainder coming from a state
appropriation and private gifts.
' There are three key reasons for the new
College of Nursing Bldg, Sparks said.
"The main objective is to permit
expansion of enrollment," he said. "This
fall 438 students enrolled in nursing
college. By 1980 , we expect an enrollment
of 726 students."
Another reason, according to Sparks, is
expansion of a career ladder program so
that students can enter the College of
Nursing after high school and graduate
with a Masters of Science in Nursing within

Sparks said he also hopes the bmldmg
will provide clinical and specialized
educational units for nursing students
' "A host of new learning programs will
be available in the new building, be said,
including clinical laboratories reproducing
ho pital settings, behavorial science
laboratories and self-instruction learning
centers. , .
While the UNMC College of Nursing
Academic bankruptcy
improved laboratories, the College of
Nursing at UNL also "will be tight for
spare within another year or so," according
to Lois Merrill, associate dean of both the
UNMC and UNL College of Nursing.
"As far as I know, no plans are being
made for a new College of Nursing Bide at
UNL," she said. "Right now we use
classrooms all over the campus, anywhere
they are available."
Few students use option
The success of a program cannot always
be measured by the number of its
participants-and UNL's academic
bankruptcy option seems to be such a
program. . . .
Since the start of academic bankruptcy
last February, less than 50 students have
taken advantage of this option to remove a
semester of work from degree
consideration, Ted Pfeifer, director of
Registration and Records at UNL, said.
He said the program has worked well for
those students it is supposed to help.
"Academic bankruptcy was intended to
serve only a few dozen students," Stephen
Milliard, who was chairman of the Faculty
Senate Grading Committee when the
bankrupt policy was adopted, said.
Academic bankruptcy allows a student
to remove up to two complete semesters of
work from degree consideration.
This option is designed mainly for
students enrolling in the university a
second time, Pfeifer said.
The bankruptcy option also helps those
students who "perhaps weren't as serious
about their academic careers as they should
have been," he said, or for the student who
had to leave school because of illness or a
family crisis and thereby received a
semester of Fs.
Pfeifer explained why academic
bankruptcy is not the "easiest way out"
for most students with low grade point
averages.
"It is better for most students to take
advantage of the university procedure for
removal of D or F grades by retaking the
course," he said.
"This way, a student can salvage an A
which he might have earned during an
otherwise poor semester," he said.
Pfeifer said he expects no changes in the
academic bankruptcy program since "it is
working for those students it was intended
