daily nebraskan
Students entering the world of college academics have
the opportunity to begin with the basics, learning how to
learn.
A new course offered this fall at UNL is designed to
help students understand their own style of learning. It's
called Learning Analysis and is coordinated by Royce
Ronning, education psychology professor.
The course consists of five three-week segments
presenting different styles of teaching by five different
instructors. Students will have the opportunity to observe
these different styles and examine their reactions to them. ;
' Ronning is teaching the first three-week segment.
Other instructors include: Doug Amedeo, Geography
dept., Daniel Bernstein, psychology dept., Barbara Leigh

of advanced calculators today
They're proven performers. In space. On Everest. In the
labs of Nobel laureates. Since we built the first, back in
1972, our advanced calculators have been tested by mil
lions worldwide, and they've passed.
They have stayinc power. Todays classroom prob
lems quickly grow into tomorrows on-the-job problems..
HP calculators are designed and built to handle both.
They're investments in a future that happens fast.
I heyYe straightforward. Advanced doesntmean
complicated!' It means "uncomplicated!' HP calculators are,
above all, straightforward.
They're easy to use. HP calculators not only crow
with you; they grow on you. They feel natural, comfortable,
because we designed them to work like you think.
They're efficient. HP calculators take the direct
approach. All feature RPN, a time-saving, parcnthesis-frec
logic system. All programmables feature a memory-saving
keycode merging capability. ,
They re personal. Professionals design their own ways
o solve their particular problems, and they expect their
calculators to be versatile enough to accommodate them.
Ours are.
There's a variety. To say we offer a full line is an
understatement. We offer a choice. That's why we publish
a unique selection Guide that spells out the capabilities

South Crib
will feature
jumbo TV
Television addicted stu
dents can sit back and relax..
The channel-changing battle
between "Search for
Tomorrow" and "Ryan's
Hope" in the Nebraska
Union will soon be resolved.
The Union is adding a
giant screen TV in the
South Crib to the already
existing television room just
off the main lounge, accord
ing to Al Bennett, Union
director.
The Advent five-by-six-
foot TV screen will be
placed on the north wall of
the South Crib, Bennett
said. According to Bennett,
the main reason for the
additional television screen
was to provide a choice to
students in their television
viewing.
He also added that the
TV room was too crowded
and so students were pulling
up chairs , from the lounge
area, blocking traffic at the
west entrance.
Bennett said the giant
screen TV will cost approxi
mately $2,500 in compari
son with the $600 25-inch
Zenith television in the TV
room.
The union also added
other renovations - this
summer, Bennett said. The
wall between the North Crib
and the Main Lounge was
partially glassed in and the
lighting level in the North
Crib also was increased, he .
said. -
, The renovations give the
North Crib "a clean, fresh,
bright look " Bennett said. .
He added that many stu
dents responded through a
survey taken last spring by
the Union Board that the
South Crib was too messy.
"We are simply trying to
upgrade our appearance,"
Bennett said. He added that,
although the Union is not
hiring any extra employees
to clean up, they hope stu
dents will make use of the
three self-busing stations in
the North and South Cribs.
The game3 area down-
stairs was also renovated
this summer, Bennett said.
The ceiling was lowered, the
area was recarpeted, and a
new glass entry was added.
Bennett added that the
lighting in the games area
now is temporary lighting
and will be replaced in a
couple of weeks.
Total cost of the games
room renovations was .
$12,500, according to Larry
Emmons, operations
manager at the Union. He
added that the exact figures
for the renovation of the
North Crib are not known
but $15,000 was budgeted.
