Several state legislators and university administrators
meet at 7 tonight to find out just how dose to excellence
the ares of excellence are. After a dinner at the Nebraska
Center for Continuing Education, visitation committees
of three of the six areas of excellence wil give a progress
report on the three-year old program.
Excellence money was allocated to these areas in 1974:
to six academic areas at UNL in 1974 to help each area
achieve internally defined goals.
The departments of Animal Science, Chemistry and the
School of Journalism are on tonight's agenda. Represent
atives for the School of Life Sciences, the Crop
Physiology Dept. and Non-traditional Education will give
a similar program Feb. 24 at 7 p.m
Visitation teams were formed for each area to period
ically evaluate progress toward excellence during the past
three years. Visitation committees include faculty
members from other colleges with similar departments,
state senators, representatives of the governor, NU
regents and students.
v The meetings are an attempt on the part of the univer
sity to show the Legislature what has been achieved with
the money so far, said Dick Johnson, coordinator of the
excellence program and administrative assistant to Alan
Seagren, vice chancellor for program development and
review.
Excellence money as allocated to these areas in 1974:
Animal Science $ 25,000
Chemistry 86,S22
Journalism 75,000
Crop Physiology 20,800
Life Sciences 127,000
Non-traditional Education 106,300
The amounts allocated to some of the areas in 197S
and 1976 varied from these original appropriations.

Roskens stresses unity
There is a need for faculty members and
Lincoln businessmen to work together, said
interim President Ronald Roskens Wednes
day at a B-week luncheon in the Nebraska
Union Ballroom, sponsored by the College
of Business Administration. He commend
ed the ''viable and productive relation
ship" between faculty members and the
Lincoln community, but warned that there
are still problems to work out.
.''Capitalism is a very demanding
system," Roskens said, "and the same can
be said for the university." He said he
believed it was imperative that faculty
members and businessmen "continue to
embrace each other in the spirit of public
service."
"Stereotypes are still too common,"
Roskens explained. "There are yet some
businessmen who refer to a university as a
place for people who can't make it in the
real world, meaning, usually, the business
world," he said.
'There are also some individuals within
universities," he said, "who decry the lack
of imagination, the stodginess, and the
scarcity of morality in the businesses and
corporations of today."
Roskens urged that every effort be
made to reduce these ideas. He said he
believed it both possible and essential that
university and business people avoid con
frontations and work together to face such
important problems as consumerism,
general economic ignorance and the financ
ing of higher education.
