a 40-foot space-age-looking antenna dish looming in the
sky it won't be the Martians invading.
It will be the .Nebraska Educational Television Net
work s satemte link to national broadcasting. .
The $250,000 equipment wUl enable the network to
receive all nationally broadcast progtams by satellite
instead of by conventional land telephone lines, according
to Boyd Rooney, NETV assistant general manager for
operations. .
NETV will receive three programs' simultaneously
and select the one it wants to broadcast, Rooney said'
Although commercial stations carry some special
programs by satellite, they rely on the terrestrial system
and receive only one program at a time, he said.
Lincoln is one of five cities in the country selected by
the.Corporation for Public Broadcastings (CPB) to serve as
a transmitting center. The equipment will feed program
ming to a large part of the Midwest," Rooney said.
Anderson to replace Baler
as acting dean of students
; "We have served as a feed point for the Central Educa
tion Network in the past, so it was natural for the CPB
to pick us as the center."

. Rooney said construction is scheduled to begin at Aii
Park West in October and should be completed by March
or April.. , . .. . ...
. The antenna will act as a reflector in picking up signals
from the satellite. Receiving equipment, housed nearby,
will transmit the signals to NETV's studios, which will
then be transmitted to TV stations, he said.
The air park site provided the least interference from -other
microwave, equipment in the area, Rooney said.
u CPB will fund the project except for $50,000.
? mount Private, grants and donations accounted
tor $45,000, and the University of Nebraska paid $5,000
Rooney said;
"Lincoln now has a greater possibility of being includ
ed in national broadcasting," Rooney said. "This should

. The appointment of Jayne Wade Ander
son as acting dean of students is scheduled
for approval by the NU Board of Regents
Sept.9. . .
If approved, Anderson will formally
step into the shoes of John (Jack) Baier
former UNL dean of student development.
Anderson has been serving as acting
dean of students since her appointment
Aug. 29 by Richard Armstrong, vice chan
cellor of . student affairs. The position is.
temporary pending a selection by a search
committee
1JNL has not had a dean of students
for about 10 years. The po'sitionv recently
reinstated by . Armstrong, combines the
post of dean of student development and
the post of assistant to the vice chancellor
of student affairs.
Armstrong said a search -committee
is being formed,
If a successful candidate is selected
from outside UNL, he said, he hopes the
new dean will be in office by Feb. i at the
latest, If the person comes from within
the institution, Armstrong projected Jan, I
as the starting date. .
"We want the best person that we can
recruit "he said. ,
This week, Anderson has been running
back and forth between two jobs, coor
dinator for fraternities, sororities and
"cooperatives and acting dean of student .
development. .
She said she is, "giving it the old . col-'
lege try ". taking one day at a time. Her
desk was- bare except for an open date
book with appointments filling each day.
There were no pictures on the walls. Baier
took everything with him, she said.
. Her only touch was plants on the. win
dow sill and hanging from the ceiling;
Anderson said as interim dean, she
believes, she should be viable to students.
It is not a job wher? she "spends time
sitting behind a desk," she said. "I should
be with students and be available to them.'
Anderson has been with UNL for
about 13 years. She said, she has. been a
department head for the last five years,
. Serving as dean is "doing some more
kinds of things she said, "but the same
kind" of things that she's been doing as"
coordinator for fraternities, sororities and;
cooperatives. She denied having any con
flict of interest.
"All students , are students " she said. .
"It doesn't make a difference where they
live."
