Most UNL colleges wl3 have hired
additional professors by Aug. 1 to teach
undergraduate classes, according to
college deans.
Undergraduate colleges were allocated
$351,000 by the State Legislature this
spring to upgrade the quality of under
graduate teaching at UNL. The money is a
result of an amendment to the university
budget by Utica Sen. Douglas Bereuter.
Ronald Smith, dean of UNL's College of
Business Administration, said prospective
faculty members have bees interviewed
and all offers will be made by July 15. All
new positions should be filled by Aug. 1,
he said.
Smith said he is confident the college
can 11 open positions.
"We will be getting some good people
here, " he said. The college was allocated
twenty six per cent of the C51,CC3 to add
five positions and to upgrade nine
positions.

The positions being filled are one-year
appointments but are subject to
reappointment.
Smith said the one-year stipulation did
net cause as much of a problem in
reeru&ing qualified professors as he
thought it might. He said the highest
demand for college professors now is in
some areas of business administration, so
that recruiting qualified professors was
difficult.
Having to compete with the outside
market also posed temporary problems
for - the College : of Enjriaserinj and
Technology, said Dean George Hanna.
It is difficult to entice quaMsd people
when there are good engineering jabs to
be had," Hanna said.
Hanna said he is very pleased with the
applicants selected to til the two pcclZtezs
created in the college, but added that he
did net get as many applicants as he
expected. The engineering college was
allocated seven per cent of the funds to
add one and one-half positions and to
upgrade two positions.
Cecil Steward, dean of the College of
'Architecture, said he has filled the two
positions being opened in the college with
five per cent of the undergraduate funds.
He said the one-year stipulation had no
' effect on the quality of those applying for
the positions.
Sevea per eest to Teachers CeZsje
Robert Egbert, dean of Teachers
College, said he would have three
positions filled by the beginning of
August. Teachers College was given
seven per cent of the funds to add three
positions and to upgrade one position.
Egbert said he is pleased with the
candidates being considered for the job,
but added that the one-year stipulation
did make a difference in the number of
applicants. "We lost three good
candidates because we could not promise
them more than a year," he said.
Irvin Omtvedt, chairman of the Animal
Science Dept. in the College of
Agriculture, said if the positions are not
extended beyond one year, the
department will be worse off than it was.
without the new positions.
"We've made some changes in the
program which we feel are absolutely
necessary," Omtvedt said.
He said one-year positions is not the
way to buOd permanent improvement into
a program. The College of Agriculture has
five per cent of the undergraduate funds
. to add two positions. One position has
been Hed, and Omtvedt said the other,
one should be filled by July 15.
Thirty six per cent of the funds will be
used by the College of Arts and Sdences
to add lSVs positions and to upgrade six
positions.

Host of the interviewing of applicants is
finished, and offers are being made, said
llax Larsen, dean of the College of Arts
and Sciences.'
He said he is optimistic that most cf the
one-year appointments will be renewed.
He said the one-year limit posed no
problems in finding qualified applicants.
The academic market is such that
qualified people are available," Larsen
said.
The department (in the college) Lave
dffse aa excellent job fa finding people
who are good teaebers at the
usdsrgrads&te level," he said.
Adam Breckenridge, UNL vice chan
cellor of academic affairs, said the
one-year stipulation may have helped
UNL "recruit some talent we would not
otherwise get."
Some departments are hiring pro
fessors who are on one-year leaves of
absence from their school.
"We have an indication," Breckenridge
said, "that it (the undergraduate money)
is part of our base budget.
