New South Crib artwork possible Union Board
page 8
Replacement of the paintings in the South Crib with
pictures painted by student artists was among the issues
discussed at Wednesday evening's Union Board meeting.
Frank Kuhn, assistant director of unions, said that a
$500 bequest from a UNL alumnus had been made to the
Nebraska Union for purchase of "a needed piece of equip
ment." "Having art students paint new pictures for the South
Crib is one possible way the money could be spent," he
said.
The paintings now in the South Crib are very old,
Kuhn said, and it is costing the Union $10 per painting
per year to keep them there. Many of them were given to
the Union by the Sheldon Art Gallery.
Kuhn said that if the bequest were to be used for that
purpose, the money might be given to student artists as
an award, or part of it might be spent to provide the stu
dents with materials.
The Operations Committee, which is currently hand
ling the bequest, was asked to investigate the matter
further.
The board agreed to raise fees for non-University
groups who use Union facilities from $15 per day to
$25 per day.
"This is still a cheaper rate than what people can
get downtown," said Union Director Daryl Swanson.
Swanson emphasized that students would not be affected
by the rate increase, and would continue to pay the $15
per day rate.
"We want to stay competitive with prices outside, but
we don't want to set the price so high that it discourages
these groups. At the same time, if we let non-University
groups continue to use Union facilities at the present
rate of $15, we'd be losing money and the students might
not be able to use the rooms, for which they've paid
student fees," he said.
Swanson discussed the Union's yearly Financial
Review.
"We should have a report ready by tomorrow (today)
he said. "In the past, our financial report had been very
complex and difficult to understand, and we hope that
our report has simplified that."

He added that Regent Robert Prokop had expressed
concern aboyt the financial state of both unions, and that
he would present the report at Friday's meeting of the
Board of Regents.
Swanson said that he and Vice-Chancellor for Student

cial affairs in other Big 8 and Big 10 universities, which
will also be presented to the Board of Regents.
