By Ron Ruleless
No excessive changes are proposed for
the Interfraternity Council (IFC) by the
new IFC president elected Tuesday evening.
Doug Kristensen, an . Acacia member
was elected president by the 27-member
council composed of fraternity presidents.
"We have a very positive start here," he
said, "so there is no reason for large 90
degree changes."
Kristensen, who will serve a year-long
term beginning at the start of the second
semester, added that he is encouraged by
the council members and pleased with his
executive staff.
Elected to executive positions at the
meeting were: Bill Mueller, Phi Delta Theta,
vice president; John DeWulf, Sigma Chi,
secretary; and Dave Roehr, Theta Xi,
treasurer.
"We plan to take the bull by the horns,"
Kristensen said, "and carry through and do
as good as job as this year's council did."
The new IFC executive council will be
installed Dec. 3, he said.

FAB bars research funds
By Marian Lucas
The Fees Allocation Board (FAB) Wed
nesday votd 7-4 to deny $2,200 for opera
ting, advertising and the administrator's
salary for a Student Bar Association (SBA)
sponsored Law Student Research Service.
SBA had originally requested $3,254.
Previously, the board questioned the le
gality of FAB allocating funds to support
a professional business.
Board member Dennis Martin, who
voted in support of the SBA request, said
problems could be encountered since the
Board of Regents might question research
by a law student on a suit concerning the
university.
Another problem, Martin said, is the
question of FAB's funding of a Research
Student Service administrator.
Tom CuUinan, administrator for the
service, said the request, if granted, would
be- the only one since the service needs
only enough funds to "get on its feet."
But the fee board voted otherwise and
board member Jim Lewis said the service
doesn't seem to benefit a large amount of
students.
"I think it's important to believe that
the funds we allocate are well spent to
benefit the students," he said.
Ely Meyerson, dean of student de
velopment, asked if the research ser
vice would provide an expression for better
education or just a service for lawyers.
FAB also approved a subcommittee
paper which investigated the Career Plan
ning and Placement Center.
The subcommittee recommendation
questioned the origin of the center's funds.
It advocated a meeting with Interim Chan
cellor Adam Breckenridge to discuss whe
ther the center should be funded by fee
board money or state tax dollars.
elected Panhellenic president Monday af
ternoon by the Panhellenic Council, ac
cording to Jayne Wade Adnerson, coordin
ator of fraternities, sororities and co-ops at

on construction
Continued from p.l
The Senate also passed a resolution ask
ing for a freeze on all scheduled building
activity in the Nebraska Union until the
Union Program Board, ASUN and students
could hold an open hearing to present their
ideas on such construction.
The resolution stemmed from last
week's meeting when the-senate learned
that . a . new Student Assistance Center
would be placed in the space now occupied
by the TV lounge in the main lounge of
the Union.
Union Director Al Bennett said the plan
had been discussed for three years and stu
dent input was considered when the Union
Advisory Board (UAB) approved the
project last May.
Bennett said there was no record of the
UAB action in May because its minutes had
been lost. Me said the Union Board reaf
firmed their action last night.
Bennett added that the TV lounge will
be moved to the northeast corner of
the main lounge.
Bennett said bids for construction of a
12 foot space extension for the assistance
center have already been asked for and that
he is legally required to respond to the bids
within 15 days or else remove the bids.
He said he would have to hear more stu
dent input than he had at the senate meet
ing to stop the move.
In other action, the Senate defeated a
proposal to ask the Fees Allocation Board
to re-cvaluate its procedures for granting
the Daily Nebraskan student fees money.
