NU budqetheading for next stop on road to approVa
By Patia Dittrick
NU's appropriations bill will be jntroduced in the
Nebraska Legislature Tuesday End senators are expect
ed to discuss it sometime during the weak of April 18
according to Wavtrly Sen. Jerome Warner, appropriations
committee chairman.
The committee has adjusted its orislnal recommenda
tion of $100.4 million to about $100.6 mion Warner
j lid. This is about $11 million below the NU Board of
Regents request but close to Gov. J. James Exon's latest
suggestion that NU receive $100.8 million.
Warner said the committee allotted funds by priority
needs and "didnt pay attention to what the governor
said. Predicting few adjustments to the bill during floor
debate, he said 'there isnt room for very many" changes.
"There is no money and it's hard to spend what you
don't have," he added.
UNL comptroller Robert Lovitt described the differ
ences between the regents' requests and the committee's
recommendations and warned these sums still are liable
to change before the NU budget bill passes.
Areas of Excellence
The regents requested some $116000 but about
$275,000 was allocated for the Area of Excellence pro
grams. Warner said the committee matched the Regents'
request in this area except for the art and music depart
ments, which requested more than the regents asked for.
These funds are a continuation of existing programs
involving six UNL and three University of Nebraska at
Omaha departments designated Areas of Excellence.
Lovitt said the committee recommended $129000 for
the State University of Nebraska (SUN) which is the sum
currently appropriated for that program. About $179000
had been requested.
The committee recommended about $522000 for sel
ective areas of improvement although NU requested
about $810000, he said.
One of these areas is the establishment of a small
business mansncnt course at UNL About $30000 has
been recommended for this program, which was prompted
by UNL senior Dili Jackson's request to the Legislature.
A total of $50000 has been allocated for innovative
undergraduate improvement at UNL. Lovitt said NU
officials "havent gotten exactly what this means" yet.
Ha said this sum goes beyone the so-called ftereuter funds
for improvement of undergraduate education allocated
last year. . ,
, Recommendations
The committee recommended NU receive its requests
of $75,000 for the College of Dentistry, $120000 for
women's athletics, $42000 for graduate studies and re
search and $20000 for affirmative action. Affirmative
