A Camara-Barbachano, assistant director of the Mexican National Institute of Anthropology and History, has degrees from the University of Yucatan and the Regents meeting today Tenure policies slated By Theresa Forsman The NU Board of Regents at its month ly meeting today will consider tenure pro posals submitted by Stewsn Sample, NU executive vice president - for academic affairs. Sample was asked to prepare a study of the university's tenure policies after the regents temporarily suspended tenure granting last April. UNL's tenure density (the percentage of eligible faculty that is tenured) was more than 70 per cent. The regents are not expected to act on the report until their November meeting to allow review by university personnel. The move to suspend granting of tenure sparked action by UNL faculty members to seek unionization. Whether the proposed union should be UNL-based or system-wide is being decided by the State Court of Industrial Relations. Board attorney Flavel Wright will re port to the regents on this and other pending litigation, which includes a suit currently in the state supreme court asking a definition of the board's authority. The board also will be asked,to approve an amended capital construction request for 1976-77. This action would not in crease the original request for $12.1 million in state funds approved by the board in September, but would increase the total capital construction project costs from $56.5 million to $59.2 million, according to Robert Pazderka, director of capital construction. The additional $3 million represents money previously appropriated for correc tion of fire hazards. In addition, several nonstate-funded projects are scheduled for regent approval. These include about $680,000 for resi dence hall improvements and $5,000 for Memorial stadium improvements . in 1975-76. Authorization differs These projects were not included in Sep tember's capital construction request because the projects require different authorization that depends on other Oil-holding breakup advised Continued from p. 1 . petition which, he said, would allow the American people to do their own price fixing. "The four biggest oil companies also own 35 per cent of the coal reserves," he said. "They are also heavily into uranium and solar research. There should be compe tition between energy sources horizontally, as well as breaking up their vertical integra tion. But President Ford is playing their game." Nebraska Lt. Gov. Gerald Whelan cut the question and answer period short saying, "We've got a schedule to keep." With that he and several Secret Service agents hustled Udall away with former Gov. Frank Morrison in tow. sources of funds, according to Pazderka. UNL Chancellor Adam Breckenridge will ask the board to approve teaching for the Nebraska State Penal Complex.
