New year with
numerous issues
faces NU regents
By Rod Murphy
In the coming semester, it appears that the NU Board
of Regents will have their hands full considering many
issues that already have surfaced.
Some likely to be acted on topics include coordination
of post-secondary schools, the NU budget, mandatory
student fees, stadium expansion and graduate student
tuition.
Regent Kermit T. Hansen of Omaha said coordination
of post-secondary schools will be "pervasive and impor
tant. . . perhaps the most important on-going concern" of
the coming year.
State-wide hearings on the matter have concluded and
the issue now is before a legislative committee which will
decide which programs should be allowed to be presented
at which state schools.
The NU budget also is a topic students should be
concerned with, Hansen said.
The first legislative hearing on the NU budget will be
in the Jan. 24 Appropriations Committee hearing room at
the capitol.
Scottsbluff Regent Robert Simmons said the board
should move as soon as possible on a plan that would
enable the university's present money supply to be
"spread around a little better."
Simmons said, in the future it will be necessary for
people to realize that the Legislature probably will not
appropriate any more funds for the university.
"I think it's time to abandon the idea that the people
in the state can supply more money for the university,"
he said.
The question of mandatory student fees and stadium
expansion will be decided at February's regents meeting,
according to present planning.
The possibility of raising graduate student tuition
probably will be postponed.
"The people are furnishing all the money they can
afford," Simmons said. "One of the chief tasks of the
board in the coming years will be to devise ways to stretch
this fixed amount of money equitably.
Ways to accomplish this may be to abandon low
enroliment programs or rotate instructors who have many
pupils, he said, "instructors need a better deal," he said.

The regents also chose Edward Schwartzkopf of Lin
coln to succeed Scottsbluff Regent Robert Simmons as
chairman of the board.
Schwartzkopf won the chairmanship over Robert Pro
kop of Omaha on a 4-3 vote by secret ballot. Prokop was
selected vice chairman.
In other action the regents approved the appointment
of Sandy Buda as UNO football coach. The appointment
came after a motion by Simmons to substitute soccer for'
football at UNO was defeated.
Trie board put off until February a decision on expan
sion of Memorial Stadium and on a $100,000 expenditure
of athletic department funds to renovate the toilets in the
east and west stadiums.
