Teachers College starts placement services early
By Liz Austin
As graduation approaches rapidly and
seniors must undertake the task of finding
a job, the wheels of UNL placement offices
start cranking.
But the UNL Teachers College doesn't
wait until students are seniors before it
begins placement services, according to the
associate dean of teachers college.
Ron Joekel said the Teachers College
placement office meet with freshmen to
make them aware of teaching areas where
there is a demand or oversupply. At this
time they also make it clear to freshmen
that before they can receive a Nebraska
teacher's certificate, graduates must be able
to teach in two areas, he added.
"We try to impress upon students what
opportunities are available," Joekel said.
Later, people from the placement office
visit junior level teaching classes to explain
how to write a letter of inquiry and a
resume, he said.
Also at this time, the Teachers College
begins to prepare a set of credentials for
individual students, Joekel said. The set of
credentials include a student tu-'niit?
evaluation and five references froir tao.i v
members, he explained.
Upcoming graduates
For seniors, placement office services in
clude a linkage between schools across the
state. Each school will notify the Teachers
College of an opening and the college then
alerts upcoming graduates through a place
ment bulletin.
If the student is interested in the job
opening he or she can sign up for an inter
view with the prospective employer, Joekel
said. Interviews may be held on campus or
at the school with the opening.
"So the students won't go into an inter
view cold" the Teachers College puts on
mock interviews for its seniors, Joekel said.
This shows the senior what goes on in an
interview and what to wear, he said.
An Interview Fair, which is in its fifth
year, also helps to place students, Joekel
said.

Teachers College invites school officials,
businessmen and insurance agents to the
college to interview its upcoming gradu
ates, he explained.
The Interview Fair mostly involves
getting to know names and who is avail
able, but there have been some contracts
offered at the fair, he said. This year's
Interview Fair will be held March 8 and 9
in the Nebraska Union.
List openings
The Teachers College also has a place
ment service through national teacher
associations for its graduate students. At
the national teacher associations meetings,
colleges will list their openings and some
interviews are held at the meetings, he said.
"These are the kind of things that help
the students get that foot in the door," he
said. "We, in Teachers College, feel we have
an obligation to help our students get a
job."
This year placement will be easiest in
math, science, industrial arts and vocation
al agriculture, where there is a shortage of
teachers, Joekel said. Those going into
men's physical education, social science
and music will find the job market tight, he
said.
The Teachers College had its highest
percentage of placement in the last few
years, he said.
Of the 600 May 79 graduates, Teachers
College expects to place about 78 percent,
Joekel said. There is never 100 percent
placement, he said, because there are
always some who go to graduate school,
get married and start a family or just don't
want to accept jobs outside a certain geo
graphical location.
Compared with other universities in the
nation, the UNL Teachers College ranks
high in placement, Joekel said.
S.As leave due to violations
Some Abel Hall Student assistants have
left the residence halls' staff because of a
violation of residence hall policies, accord
ing to Director of Housing Douglas
Zatechka.
"S.A.s working with the department
since fall are no longer with us," he said.
Although Zatechka refused to comment on
how many students left, the Daily Nebra
skan learned that three student assistants
were involved.
Zatechka refused to comment on
whether the S.A.s were fired or had left
voluntarily, nor would he identify the stu
dents leaving or the policy they allegedly
violated .
Abel-Sandoz Complex Program Director
Ina Luhring verified that there were S.A.s
who were leaving but also would not com
ment on details.
Two floors in Abel scheduled emer
gency floor meetings Thursday night. A
sign on one floor asked residents to meet
Thursday night to go talk with the resident
director to "save" their S.A.
Richard McKinnon, assistant director of
Housing for Residential Education met
with Abel residence directors and complex
director of Abel Hall Thursday afternoon
but refused to speak with reporters about
the matter.
Fees committee reviews audits
The Daily Nebraskan presented a budget
request for $39,241 to the Committee for
Fees Allocation at its meeting this week.
The Daily Nebraskan request for the
1979-80 school year represents 9.88 per
cent of its total budget for the period, ac
cording to Daily Nebraskan Business Man
ager Jerri Haussler. The remainder of the
paper's budget is earned from advertising
sales.
Last year the Daily Nebraskan requested
$41,000 and received $34,800.
The committee delayed approval of the
Daily Nebraskan audit of last year's spend
ing because committee member Rocky
Yapp requested more time to study the
audit.
The committee also approved an audit
of ASUN. Committee member Brian Dun
bar said ASUN had gone to the Nebraska
Bookstore for printing that could have
been done through university stores. Dun
bar said about $200 to $300 could have
been saved if this work was done through
university stores.
The committee approved audits of the
Crew, Innocents-Mortar Board, and the
Student Alumni Board.
The committee also scheduled tenta
tive dates for Fund A budget request hear
ings. The Cultural Affairs Committee hear-

ing was scheduled for next Tuesday and
the Daily Nebraskan hearing was set for
Feb. 6. No date was set for ASUN and
Union Program Council hearings.
Fund B subcommittees were also set up
at the meeting. While CFA has no official
power to adjust Fund B allocations as sta
ted in the University by-laws, Richard
Armstrong, vice chancellor of student af
fairs, said they still could study the
requests and make recommendations to
ASUN and Armstrong based on their study.
