A proposal recommending that alcohol be allowed in
certain university student living units probably will be'
presented to the NU Board of Regents at its Feb. 14
meeting, according to Interim Chancellor Adam
Breckenridge.
This provision is part of a five-page proposal sponsored
by Ken Bader, vice-chancellor for student affairs, and
approved by Breckenridge. -
The recommendations are trie result of a study
started in fall 1975 by a differentiated housing task force,
comprised of students, faculty members and staff. The
task . force was commissioned by the Housing Policy
Committee, a subcommittee of the Council on Student
life (CSL). Existing differentiated housing programs in
residence halls, Greek houses and cooperatives were
evaluated by the task force.
, The task force recommendations then were forwarded
to CSL, which also made recommendations. Both group's
recommendations were presented to Bader.
Bader also made recommendations which, according to
Breckendridge, will be presented to the regents.
Bader's recommendations support existing housing
policies of 24-hour visitation for graduate students and
three guest hour options for undergraduate students.
These include no visitation hours, zero to eight hours and
zero to fourteen hours.
However, Bader said he thinks the zero to 14-hour
option should be substituted by a zero" to 16-hour
option. Floors having the 14-hour option now have to
find two hours between 10 ajn., the earliest hour for
visitation, and 2 ajn.,"the latest hour, when visitation is
not permitted.
Bader also recommended that the zero- to eight-hour
option be extended to a zero- to 16-hour option on
Fridays, as it currently is on Saturdays and Sundays.

Interim Chancellor Adam Breckenridge has approved a recommendation allowing akohol in certain student living
units, part of a five-page proposal sponsored by Ken Bader, vice-chancellor for student affairs. The proposal will be
presented tp the NU Board 01 Kegenis reD. 1.
A 24-hour visitation option available to under
graduates as a one-year experimental program also will be
presented to the regents.
This option would be limited to five floors; one
associative living floor in Abel Hall, one floor for females
in Schramm and Selleck Quadrangle Halls and one floor
for males in Schramm, Cather and Burr halls.
Rate study results in housing hike
By Betsie Ammons
A $35 rate increase for single rooms in UNL residence
halls resulted from a study of current and future opera
tion costs, said Richard Armstrong, UNL housing director.
Single room rates will increase from $1,190 in 1975-76
to $1 ,225 beginning fall semester 1976-77, if approved by
the NU Board of Regents at its Feb. 14 meeting.
Armstrong said he hopes the regents decide on the in-,
crease at the meeting, so housing contracts can be pre
pared be Core Spring break. '. t . '
Each year the Housing office prepares a rate study to
determine need for raising or lowering housing fees, Arm- -strong
said. He said the office studies current operation
costs and project those levels to the future, adding or sub
tracting according to the current inflation rate.
We take most of our cues from the U.S. Dept. of Agri
culture for food costs, the U.S. Labor Dept. for wage
averages and an economic forecast published in U.S. News
Deadline is today
Today is the deadline for applying for degrees
or certificates to be received at the end of second
semester..
Application can be made at the Office of
Registration and Records, Information Window,
Administration Bldg., from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
and World Report magazine," Armstrong said.
Armstrong said the study, prepared by the Housing
Business Office, is "never perfect" and called it their "best
guess."
If the study is over-projected, surplus money is trans
ferred to a bond account to be used by agencies within
the university who participate in the -bond program, he
said. He said these agencies are the Housing office, Uni
versity Health Center and Nebraska Union.
Under-projection of the study and lack of operation
funds has never been a problem, according to Armstrong.
He said if this should ever happen, the housing office
would "exhaust every possibility of reducing operation
costs, then go to the regents if no other solution could be
found."
' Although the cost is increasing, Armstrong said he pre
dicts that fall residence hall occupancy will increase. He
attributed this to projected UNL enrollment for first
semester, 1976-77, which is "up slightly" over the level
for the current semester.
Armstrong added that off-campus living costs are
"racing ahead" faster than on-campu's because of higher
rental rates and utility costs.
. Armstrong said he did not know whether on-campus
living costs would continue to rise.
"I wish I knew," he said. "It appears inflation will de
cline, but there will always be some inflation. The 1976
rate study is based on the leveling of Inflation."

The option for alcohol possession and consumption
also has certain restrictions. It would be allowed only in
students' rooms. Parties would not be permitted in rooms
where alcohol is consumed and keggers also would not be
allowed. No university funds (including residence hall
social fees) could be used to purchase alcoholic beverages.
Bader also recommended that a complete evaluation of
the option should be conducted after one semester.
The only major difference between proposals sub
mitted by the task force, CSL and Bader, is that Bader
does not recommend coeducational living as a full univer
sity living option.
