According to YohnJosh is the only speaker ever cen
sored at UNL, and of the over 500 universities he has
spoken at in the United States, UNL is the only one where
he was subject to prior restraint.
However, McDowell told the Daily Nebraskan in Janu
ary that the University of Texas told him he could not be
persuasive, and a university which he declined to name
told him he could not use the words "Jesus Christ."
Yohn, Armstrong, some university legal counselors and
others met Wednesday at Regents Hall. Armstrong said
the meeting included a full discussion of the legal and
partisan views related to the probations vissue. Yohn also
described the meeting as an exchange of information but
added that no agreement was worked out.
James Raglin, Director of Public Affairs, said the main
extent oi the conversation at the meeting focused on re
cent court decisions concerning the separation of church
and state and religious freedom. The university counsels
held that the regents bylaws were legally defensible,
although the UNL bylaws may have some judicial weak
nesses, Raglin said.
According to Raglin, the regents' religion policy per
mits brief and "wholy unholy non-sectarian benedictions
or moments of silence.' It also says University facilities
will not be available for any organized event or activity if
one of its essential features is religious worship or testi
mony in any of its various forms."
The Bob Devaney Sports Center, Raglin said, can be
rented to religious groups with the university's approval
for worship, which can include testimony.
Yohn said he felt the regents' policy was "hilarious."
"I wondered what country I was in," he said. The current
policy says individuals can pray to "God" or "to whom it
may concern" but another name or deity cannot be
mentioned, he said.
