Alcohol ime eomld flare again
Residence hall visiting hours and alcohol
restrictions at UNL have long been major student
gripes.
Yet, because o! the proposed 16.4 million alumni
association center to be built on campus at
least one of the gripes, alcohol might now take on a
different twist.
If Chancellor Roy Young and the NU Board of
Regents approve the site north of the union for the
new center, they must do so with the knowledge
that the alcohol issue might again be flared this
time by alumni.
k Alumni Association Executive Vice President.
Jack Miller, hasn't said whether the request for
alcohol privileges in the center will be included in
the program statement to be completed next
montn. . . .
However, ASUN President Bud Cuca said the
request has been discussed at several Central
Planning Committee meetings throughout the

summer and considers it "probable"; that alumni
center officials will ask for alcohol privileges.
And, he also said: "It's harder to turn down
alumni wanting alcohol than students. It is a
decision the regents don't want to make.1
The regents nave two options.
They can deny approval for the center to be built
on campus thus eliminating the alcohol issue, or
they can approve the center and face the issue.
4 And. if alcohol Drivileires awallowed to the
Alumni center, many questions will be asked.
And maybe this ume students will convince the
regents that alcohol privileges thbuld be allowed on
campus for everyone oxiegal age.
Beutkrgets answers
Sen. Chris Beutler was right when he said a State
senator should not have to be the one to provide answers
to UNL problems. t
Yet it was he, a Lincoln senator; who anally did provide
some answers to Monlanne Davidson's charges against
Professor Wayne Dobson,
Beutler said he found some of the allegations true.
Davidson, Dobson's former secretary, said she believes
Dobson shouldn't just "get his hands slapped.1'
Nor do we.
Let's hope Beutler's findings will launch a thorough
investigation of Dobson's activities, and some results are
seen from UNL administrators.
