SCC tuition increases
fail to hurt enrollment
By Mary Jo Pitzl
Despite an overall tuition increase of
almost 35 percent during the , past four
years at Southeast Community College's
Lincoln campus, statistics prove that the
increase -has had no inverse effect on the
school's enrollment.
, In fact,. tjie average 1976-77 enrollment
on the Lincoln campus was about 900
while halfway through the 1979-80 school
year, enrollment is hovering around 2,500,
according to Jerry Gruber, dean of student
services at the Lincoln campus.
. Last weeki the SCC board decided to
raise tuition 7 percent for 1980-81, bring
ing the per-quarter fee to $135 at the voca
tional and technical school.
David Buettner, president of the Lin
coln campus, said the tuition increase pro
posal met little resistance. .
"I had asked the student council to con
sider the probability of a tuition increase
and I think they very responsibly under
stood why it was necessary," Buettner said.
Raise expected
He added that it seems to be almost ex
pected' that tuition will rise, considering
the inflation rate.
Buettner explained that if it weren't for
inflation, a tuition increase wouldn't be
necessary. Greater enrollment covers the
bulk of the cost of curriculum expansion,
he said. Tuition provides about 17 percent
of the school's operating costs.
Students at SCC average one-and-a-half
years to complete a program of study,'
Gruber said. Most students attend two of
the quarter sessions, with enrollment
heaviest during the fall and spring quarters,
he said. Beside the current $126 per
quarter tuition fee, students' budgets must
also cover housing and meals, which are
not included in the SCC fee.
In comparison, UNL Director of Admis
sions Al Papik said basic educational ex
penses during the 1978-7? school year
were $1,146.50, when in-state tuition was
$22.50 per credit hour.
Dramatic increase , '
, Gruber attributed, the swelling of ranks
on SCC's Lincoln campus to a "dramatic"
increase in part-time enrollment. He esti
mated that about 1,700 of the approxi
mate 2,500 students are part-time.
Not included in SCC enrollment figures
are the 3,000 or so students enrolled in
non-credit classes, Gruber said,
Gruber credited last fall's opening of a
new Lincoln campus at 8800 O St, with
attracting more attention to the school.
However, Buettner cautioned, the new
campus does not signal an expansion of
SCC curriculum. He said there has been
only a moderate increase in course offer
ings during the past several years.
"The campus is not an expansion of our
services, but rather a consolidation," he
said. "Formerly there were eight sites (for
classes) in Lincoln."
Last year at this time, walking across
campus meant wading through knee-deep
snow, and extra snow removal work for the
UNL Grounds Department.
This winter, students, have been seen
walking in shirtsleeves, jogging in the warm
afternoons and enjoying the non -seasonal
weather.
The Grounds Department also has taken
advantage of the warm spell to do catch up
work.
The snowfall Saturday was the third
time this winter that snow removal work
had to be done at UNL. Bud Dasenbrock,
director of the Grounds Department, said
the department was able to do a lot .of
landscape construction until Dec. 21 be
cause of the lack of snow.
The department also can spend more
time with pruning, litter removal, repair
and renovation of lawn sprinkler systems,
repair of vandalism and cleaning up parking
lots.
The 21 UNL students who work part
time for the Grounds Department and nor
mally remove snow are now working on
these other projects, Dasenbrock said.
The department also employs 40 full
time people who make up specialty crews
for planning and design, mechanics and
irrigation.
Dasenbrock said the lack of snow did
not eliminate any jobs. Plenty of work
needs to be done on the outside areas that
usually play second to snow,- he said.
So far this winter, Dasenbrock said,
UNL has saved money on snow removal.
He said less than $1,500 has been spent on
snow removal, which is about 10 percent
of the amount spend last winter by this
time.
