Foundation fosters kids' potential
By Scott Nelson
The Human Resources Research Foundation, located
in the 501 Building basement, works with children of all
ages, abilities and needs. It is both a human services
foundation and a research project, but workers say what
makes it different from other organizations is its approach
towards children.
"Instead of working with a large number of children
for a short period of time, we work with a smaller number
for a long time," said Galen Dodge, foundation director.
"We'll take a kid and work one-on-one with him for,
say, 13 years. Imagine the kind of different that can
make."
The foundation is based on the premise that all human
beings have tremendous potential, he said. The extent
to which that potential is reached is related to the amount
and quality of interaction.
A positive approach
He labeled his program a positive approach to the
human mentality.
"Rather than corrective or remedial action we use a
positive and developmental approach directed toward
human abilities and ideas.
The foundation also studies people who have reached
great potential and asks how they got that way, in order
to help others to reach their potential, Dodge said.
The foundation uses UNL students as counselors. Stu
dents usually are matched up with a child they will work
with for two to three years.
"We strongly believe that people need positive models
they can emulate," he said.
Dodge said the counselors he's looking for are people
who have something to give, have a genuine concern for
others, and people who can make a significant difference.
Work has dividends
Although counselors are not paid, all agreed they get

dividends from the work that can't be found in a class
room. "It's unexplainable unless you've been part of it,"
said Julie Romohr, a senior in elementary education and a
counselor for 2 years.
"I've got a friendship with Missy 111 have the rest of
my life."
She re-emphasized that she works on building poten
tial saying "everyone needs someone to say 'sure you can
do it.' "
"One of the hardest things to do was to build trust,"
she said.
After two years with Missv, Romohr said she feels like
a sister, and has great hopes for her.
"She has so many things going for her, and the one
thing I want is her to know it."
Two-way benefits
John Withrow, a senior in agronomy and in his
second semester as a counselor, said he feels it has been
one of the most worthwhile things he's done in college.
His counselee has no control of his arms and legs.
Withrow said they get together about one afternoon a
week, and go to movies, write letters or just about
anything.
"When I go out with my counselee I feel I get some
thing in return," he said. "I've just given him what I am
and I feel comfortable. I feel accepted."
New NU library
acquires a name
The new NU Medical Center's Library will bear the
name of Dr. Leon S. McGoogan.
Since 1931, McGoogan has had an obstetrics and gyn
ecology practice in Omaha. While practicing medicine in
Omaha, McGoogan also has been a teacher at the NU
Medical Center for 47 years.
McGoogan became involved with the Center's Library
when he ageed to help raise the necessary building ex
penses of $350,000.
"The main part of the money was raised by matching
funds among the alumni group," McGoogan said. He said
that other groups also were responsible for raising
$385,000, $35,000 over the goal.
During his 47 years at the center, McGoogan was chair
man of the department of gynecology and obstetrics. Mc
Googan is presently teaching at the center as a senior
consultant.
Commenting on the new delivery methods, McGoogan
said, "I think the Lamaze method of delivery is excellent.
I like the idea of the father participating in the labor room
but not in the operating room. I'm opposed to home de
liveries because of the many emergencies that may occur
that could mean the life of either the mother or child.
With modern transportation and hospitals, home deliver
ies should not be used today," he said.
"It used to be that after delivery a patient would stay
in the hospital between 12 and 14 days. Now, the patiua
usually is dismissed after two or three days," McGoogan
said.
He explained that the shorter stay is due to many grad
ual changes. The greatest change causing a decrease in
hospital stays was the shortage of beds during World War
II. Since World War II, there has been a continuous short
age of beds so the patients must leave sooner.
McGoogan comes from a medical family background.
His grandfather was a physician and his brother became
a dentist.
"My retirement from practice will be gradual. For in
stance, after Oct. 1, I won't be practicing obstetrics,"
he said.
Commenting on the NU Medical Center McGoogan
said, "The future for the med center is very bright. The
school has been flexible to policy change over the years.
And the education quality has moved rapidly in the past
25 years. More of the quality increases should be expected
in the future."
