Offices takingover classrooms in 501
From a chicken hatchery to classrooms to office
spaces, 501 Building is changing.
Modifications are being made in the 501 Building to
create office space out of former classrooms, said Ray
Coffey, business manager of business and finance.
The modifications are estimated to cost $8,000, he
said.
Departments already moved into the new office space
include the university employment section of personnel
and environmental health and safety, Coffey said.
The employment section of personnel moved to make
it easier for handicapped persons to apply for jobs, he
said. Previously, it had been located in crowded rooms on
the fifth floor of the Administration Building.
Environmental health and safety moved because its
office at the University Health Center was needed for
medical facilities, he said.
Coffey said the University Credit Union soon will re
locate to first floor offices at 501 to better accommodate
its clients. Currently, they are in the basement of the
Faculty Club.
The credit union will pay for modifying its offices, he
said.
The purchasing department will move to 501 "prob
ably by the end of this semester," Coffey said.
Remaining classrooms include two rooms serving as
design labs for architecture, six classrooms for general
assignments and one television room instructors may use
when they want their classes to watch television, Coffey
said.
Offices already at 501 include the graduate school of
social work and Nebraska Human Resources Research
Foundation, Inc., he said.
The Physical Plant is making all of ths modifications
at the 501 Building, Coffey said.

Learning center educates
professors about teaching
By Shelley Smith
A teacher can know his material but if
he doesn't know how to teach it he's not
effective, according to the new director of
the UNL Teaching and Learning Center.
Delivee Wright, in an interview said she
feels learning how to be an effective
teacher is just as important as knowing the
material.
Wright, who received a bachelors degree
in zoology from Northwest Missouri State,
a masters degree in zoology from Southern
Illinois, and a PhJD. from UNL in educa
tion, was appointed director of the center
July 1.
She has been a center staff member
since 1974 and was appointed Interim
Director in August 1977.
Wright said she is excited about the
coming year and places communication as
one of her main goals.
Faculty involvement
"I would like to broaden the impact of
our service so that every faculty member
can or wiH use our resources, she said.
The center was established in 1971 as
a result of a faculty committee which felt
it important to have an organization to en
courage innovation and quality instruc
tion for faculty members, Wright ex
plained. The center was initially financed by the
Danforth Foundation which supports edu
cationally beneficial programs, she said.
The center is now part of UNL's instruc
tional program and is financed by the uni
versity. She said to encourage its use, the center
has developed several programs to involve
as many faculty members as possible.
Newsletters published
Six to eight newsletters will be pub
lished during the year to keep teachers
informed on the latest teaching methods
and keep them up to date on center activi
ties, she explained.
She said the center plans to continue
the faculty self-analysis program because of
its success in recent yean.
"A teacher can come to us on a volun
teer basis and request help in some area of
teaching. An instructional assistant will
work with the faculty member to help
analyze what his strengths and weaknesses
are and make modifications. Kind of the
two heads are better than one principle,' "
she said.
Chowder society
Another program to be continued is
called the Chowder Society.
She said that on alternate weeks a facul
ty discussion group will meet to discuss
topics related to teaching. Teachers will be
assigned to speak on a different topic.
Wright said she feels that making an im
pact on the individual teacher in turn
makes an impact on how students are
learning.
"If I could choose one main, idealistic
goal, I would want to make this institution
for students better than any other cam
pus," she said.
The center also processes student evalu
ations for instructors.
"Students don't realize that those end
of the year evaluations are important to
the teacher. Students should let the teacher
know what problems they have had so they
can improve in the following year, she
said.
