Selleck . . .
Continued from Ps 8 ,
One student was told she could not file a complaint
against a fraternity for breaking her window, the students
said.
Oblander said, however, he tries to be reasonable by
either answering questions or referring matters of which
he has limited knowledge to the maintenance department.
"I work with the residents in the comples and with the
maintenance manager here," he said. "Part of that is
supervising S.A.S."
The students charged that areas directly outside the
building and a 'tunnel inside frequently termed by resi
dents as "rape alley," are dangerous because of a decrease
in lighting.
A MAN WALKED into the women's restroom this fall
in the graduate section, but officials did little about it
until several complaints were made, the human develop,
ment major said.
Violators had walked into restrooms in the complex
previously, but students had not been warned about it,
she claimed.
She said she went to the residence director, who told
her that "it probably won't happen again," to which she
replied, "but it might."
"If it was that easily accessible that time, why not
again?" she asked.
A lock on the restroom door, which only the graduate
section students keys will open, was placed only after an
appeal to the university chancellor, she said.
"Shower peekers' have plagued the complex,"
Oblander admitted,
"We continue to try to catch the folks and do what we
can," he said. "But the incidents are usually isolated,
about one a year." ,
The five students also objected to cafeteria policies
which they contend are different than those of other
complexes. ;
"WE'RE OBJECTING to ridiculous food rules which
don't make sense and don't follow the other dorms," the
music major said. "People deliberately go to Cather-Pound
to eat because the facilities here are poor."
She said the quality of food is poorer and differing
limits on the quantity of food are allowed at Selleck. She
said this was blatant proof that Selleck residents are
treated as "secondlass citizens" compared to students in
other dorms.
"When you're graduate students, this is where they put
you," she said. "All dorms should have some uniformity
in what they are doing."
One of the most recent complaints about the cafeteria
has been a recurring fly problem.
The problem usually happens in cafeterias across
campus in the fall, according to Oblander.
'The problem is not different in Selleck than in other
dorms," Ann Dumper, administrative dietician said.
Dumper said that UNI Environmental Health has
examined the problem and key areas have been sprayed
regularly.
"But the kinds of spray to kill the flies are the kinds
that are dangerous to humans, too," she said.
Dumper attacked claims that food policies in Selleck
are inferior.
"The major difference is that there are two lines," she
said. One line has fast food and the other follows regular
cafeteria style, she said, adding that the complex has no
restrictions other than ones similar to the other dorms.
Oblander said the basic policies are similar between
residence halls.
"MOST FOLKS FEEL that the food here is equal or
better than at other cafeterias," he said.
The music major said she feared handicapped students
were being discriminated against because only one
entrance and exit ramp for wheelchairs exist.
"We need more ramps," she said. "What if there is a
fire?" It's the responsibility of the health aide and the .
student aide to get them out."
Rooms of handicapped students who would require
assistance in vacating for a fire are not marked, the human
development student said.
'Two people can't get all the handicapped people out
in three minutes," she said.
But Brad Munn, the UNL affirmative action officer, .
said that handicapped students are not discriminated
against.
'The law says the building must be accessible," he said.
"Some parts of it are not accessible. You're talking about
six students out of 23,000."
According to the law, all programs and activities must
be available to students.
"I have heard no complaints from the handicapped
students, ' Munn said. "Every-time, they have a complaint
try to help them. I will never deny them any reasonable
request."
