The next largest lump of student fees is
allocated to the Nebraska Unions, which
currently receive $13.79 per student. The
Unions requested the same amount of allo
cation, $600,000, that was given them for
1979-80.
However, CFA tentatively allocated
$592,663 for the unions. Food service, not
totally funded by fees, is budgeted at
$616,352 for salaries and benefits and
$179,812 for operating expenses.
House operations for the unions repre
sent a total of $306,867 for operation and
salary payments. Information desks cost

$50,662 to maintain.
Cost per student per semester if the ten
tative allocation for the Unions is granted
would be $13.62, which is $.17 less than
the present allocation.
The final share of Fund B allocations
goes to recreation programs and facilities.
CFA has tentatively allowed $170,144 for
operating expenses and salaries and
$43,500 for facility repairs.
The Recreation Dept. requested a $2
per student assessment in fees to support
the repair and maintenance of recreation
facilities. CFA has tentatively granted $1
per student, per semester fee allocation,
which would total $43,500 for 1 980-8 U
Salaries and Benefits of the Recreation
Dept. have been budgeted at $165,309 and
operating expenses at $63,830,
According to this proposed budget plan,
Fund A and B allocations would cost each
student a total of $54.28.
But an automatic . requirement of
$18.00 per student each semester for debt
service translates into an annual revenue of
about $733,000, and increases the student
. fee charge (tentatively) to about $72.50

Examine aims before hazing
is fraternity official's advice
By Mary Fastenau
Joe Martin's answers to hazing in frater
nity houses are questions.
Martin, director of alumni services for
the Sigma Chi fraternity international or
ganization, told participants at a Greek
workshop Saturday that he can't give
answers to problems with hazing, but can
provide suggestions for change.
"It won't do any good for rne to give
you the answers because you're the ones
that have to go back to your chapter
houses and sell the ideas," the University
of Houston graduate said. :;; '
, Speaking to half of the 275 who
attended the workshop at the" "Nebraska"
Union, Martin said he would give them a
problem solving technique to use in their
chapters, -but would leave implementing
change to them.
Martin's technique: , define the objec
tives of individual fraternity houses, anal
yze the situation and prepare a plan to
handle the problems.
Objectives listed
He used the technique to structure his
lecture, asking those present to develop a
list of objectives. Included on the list were
promoting responsibility, brotherhood,
scholarship, leadership, unity and pride.
Personal betterment and the cultivation of
high Ideals also were listed.
"Oftentlme It (hazing) is Inconsistent
with our objectives and reasons for being
here," he said.
Fraternities resort to hazing because it is
easy, according to Martin. He said it is hard
work to come up with effective pledge
programs, especially since they need to be
re-evaluated constantly to make sure they
fit the current situation.
Martin said it is amazing men have the
Imagination to design hazing projects-actions
that "people would never consider"
but lack the Imagination to come up with
constructive pledge programs.
He also asked the group to define
pledgeship and the ritual used to initiate
pledges into lifelong membership.
Ritual should unite
He said fraternity members should real
ize the ritual should provide a common,
uniting experience,
"It (initiation) is so secret," Martin said,
"that the philosophies behind it are even
secrets to the brothers," '
Fraternities need to ask themselves why
they are here and what direction they are
going, Martin said,
"We're not out to make men. We're not
out to make; intramural jocks. We're. ,h.cre
to' m'ake'bVothers, Ife said, ; ,. . J .
Martin questioned the use of any haz
ing. , . .
1 "A little hazing is like being a little
pregnant," he quipped, "There is no such
thing," ,; ,
Martin warned that concepts of restruc
turing pledgeship are not new, but have
been discussed for the last 5Q years,
"We're not changing, . . We're just get
ting back on the track again ,"
Correction
The Dally Nebraskan incorrectly
reported Friday about several facets of the
tutoring program offered by the Dept, of
Multi-Cultural Affairs,
Students must have a 3,0 grade point
average, not a 3.6, to be accepted as a
tutor, Also, tutors cannot work more than
15 hours a week,
Students may seek crisis tutoring help at
the Educational Learning Center from 8
a.m. to 5 p.m,
The telephone numbers of the tutoring
program also were incorrectly reported,
The correct numbers are 472-1481 for
crisis tutoring at the Educational Learning
Center and 472-3940 for regular tutoring
at the Dept. of Multi-Cultural Affairs.
