Dear editor,
We would like to inform students of the university of
the serious situation that the School of Social Work is in
concerning accreditation. This affects not only the 400
students and 22 faculty members in Lincoln and Omaha,
but many social welfare agencies throughout the state that
hire professional social workers. -
Because disaccreditation is pending, steps are being
taken to improve the NU program, making it the quality
program it should be. The School of Social Work needs
support of the whole student body to keep our accredita
tion. Knowing that the student body is simply unaware of
what can be done, rather than apathetic toward our
situation, we'd like to ask all university students to express
their concern for continuation of the NU School of Social
Work, in letter form, to:
Mr. Fred Stam, Director
or
Mr. Diane Bernard, Chairman
Commission on Accreditation . v '

Straight talk
Dear editor, , .
I am writing in response to David Kirshenbaum's letter
(Daily Nebraskan, Oct. 8). I am the student who received
the $15 from one of the head people at Campus Police.
When I was towed away, I felt the university police had
no legal right to tow me to I went down and raised hell at
the office. Finally, after two days the nervous fellow
behind the desk came to the scene of the wrongdoing.
While en route to the scene, this guy said, "What we
need is babysitters instead of teachers." He also told me
they Mhad my car marked and wanted to pick on me.
M-W M.0-rt If. ntM WBt
right, he said there was nothing he could do. Then I told
him it was time for me to call my lawyer to investigate the
incident, whereupon he whipped out $15 and gave it to me.
Now ask yourself, what is going on with those people?
It is too bad there were no witnesses to the action. Maybe
there is something shady going on. I'm not saying there is,
but could we hear it straight from Gail and John (Gail
Cade, Campus Police chief, and John Duve, UNL paildng
coordinator)?

Payoff logic 1
Dear editor,
To R.A.E.: I was distressed by your letter concerning
the practices of the Campus Police. Compassion is not the
issue, nor, I dare say, the motive behind the Campus Police
staff member's attempt to give my sister $5 to pay off her
parking fine. Fatigue or irrationality would probably better
explain his actions.
If R.A.E. had read M.E. Tune's letter with hisher
glasses or, heshe would have discerned the real point of
the complaint. The point is the discriminatory enforcement
of parking regulations on this campus.
Some days parking violations are enforced, some days
they are not. Some people are ticketed while others are
not. Some people who appeal their tickets get them voided
while others are jacked around by insane members of the
Campus Police.
In conclusion R.A.E., I would refer to two other
irrelevant points you make in your letter. M.E. Tune was
not asking the man for $5. (She is not rich, but she is not
impecunious, either.) She was merely asking for fair warn
ing and fair enforcement of parking regulations!
Finally, as for your assertion that "love still does exist,
even on the UNL campus,' M.E. Tune does not question
the existence of love and neither do I. We are just aware
that love involving $5 i3 illegal in every state except Nevada.
Correctfully yours,
M.K. Tune
Why not woman? -
Dear editor,
The year is 1975. Why then are we-still cursed with such
negligent statements as "The new chancellor needs to be a
man who. . . "? Why, Adam Breckenridge? (Daily
Nebraskan, Oct. 6.)

Freudian angle .
Dear editor,
Richard "Sigmund Proud suffers from a delusion that
leaders of the women's movement have a deep-seated
hatred of men, due to unhappy childhoods or marriages.
It is clear that Proud, probably because of a traumatic
toilet-training experience, is fixated at the narcissistic anal
stage of psychosexual development, making him incapable
of accepting women as equals, and resulting in his obsessive
compulsive need to smear advocates of women's rights.

Marsha Jark: Long Hard Climb
Library users have options
By Marsha Jark
The library system, like other institutions on thh
campus, has its problems. As with other bureaucracies,
many of its employes have risen to their level of incompe
tence (the Peter Principle). However, it does not deserve to
be maligned as it has been in the past.
Much of its problem lies with a budget that is not
sufficient to bring it to the point of excellence. The reason
for that may simply be a matter of visibility. It is easier
to appropriate funds for a new building than it is to buy
400 books a year.
A building can be pointed to, but no one points out new
books on the shelf or demonstrates a new card system to
show a legislator or taxpayer that their money is well
spent.
Unwanted hassle results whm the cheapest method is
used to circulate books-the cheapest method takes the
longest time. However, library patrons can cope with this
tMm f)! W J . .
-V j Ul WfttlVAtA
The undergraduate library, which has experienced the
most flak in past months, offers a variety of visual aids to
help people find their way around. Prominent red signs
hung from the ceiling indicate the card catalog, third
floor stacks and the children's literature room. There is
also a stop sign at the out turnstyle and a large sign pointing
to the pencil sharpener near the circulation desk.
Some of the present misunderstanding between the
library and patrons centers on third floor stacks at
Nebraska Hall, which house books using Dewey Decimal
System call numbers. Many bound psrioaiuus nave, been
recatalogued from Dewey to Library of Congress numbers
and moved to Love North.
Because of a communication lag, patrons sometime
are advised to travel to Nebraska Hall to look under a
Dewey call number, then must head back to Love to find
the book under a Library of Congress number. This irrita
tion can be circumvented by having Love call Nebraska Mall
to see if the book is there.
The library sometimes takes one step, forward and two
steps backward. In an attempt to become more accessible
to students, loan periods have been made equal for
graduates and undergraduates, fines have been lowered and
it soon will be possible to renew books by mail.
On the other hand, the undergraduate library, located
near three residence hall complexes, will close at the end
of this semester. Books hitherto accessible will be moved
to Love and disappear into a kbvrinth of stacks.
Perhaps we should philosophize with Winnie, a character
in the play Happy Days by Samuel Beckett. Buried up
to her waist in a mound of dirt, Winnie can still look at
herself in the mirror and say, ". . ah well-no worse-no
better, no worse -no change. . .

Arthur Hoppe's byline and .column title, "Innocent
Bystander, inadvertently were left off the column
( Uncle Jerry risks patients pot shots").
