Professor: Carter traits
caused his election loss
By Betsy Miller
The outcome of the recent presidential
election was not so much a display of sup
port for Ronald Reagan as a vote of dis
pleasure with incumbent Jimmy Carter,
according to a professor of political psy
chology. Betty (Had, a political science teacher
at the University of Illinois-Urbana, spoke
to about 40 UNL instructors and students
in Oldfather Hull on Wednesday.
Glad specializes in the psychology 01
politicians and wrote the book Jimmy
Carter: In Search of the drcat White
ll( use.
She quoted figures which show that 2l
percent of people questioned recently said
Carter was a strong leader.
However, only 27 percent were strongly
in favor of Reagan being president.
Glad said she also thinks the public's
strong feelings against Carter hurt the
Democratic Party as well.
The nationwide losses by the party are
"a repudiation of him (Carter) more than
the entire Democratic Party," Glad said.
Many of Carter's psychological traits
were detrimental to him in the campaign,
according to Glad.
Carter's "unconcious self-centeredness"
caused him to ignore the requests of party
members and concede the election to
Reagan before the polls on the west coast
had closed, Glad said.
Ren. Al Uhlmun of Oregon, chairman
of the House Ways and Means Committee,
was one west coast Democrat whose de
feat may have been caused by Carter's
early concession, (J lad said.
Carter's combative personality also hurt
his re-election chances, according to Glad.
"Under pressure he almost instinctive
ly goes for the jugular." she said.
Carter's adviser Patrick Caddcll had to
remind the Piesident during the campaign
to focus on negative issues about Reagan,
not negative personal attacks. Glad said.
Carter may have appeared stiff during
his debate with Regan because he was try
ing to control himself from taking potshots
al his opponent, according to Glad.
While Carter's campaign emphasis on
Reagan's faults was unsuccessful. Regan's
countermove was "strategic," Glad said.
Reagan's advisers told him to remain
silent in the face of Carter's attacks so that
he would give the image of being above
mudslinging, she said.
Near the end of the campaign, several
factors combined to cause Carter's down
fall. First, many liberals who had supported
Carter in ll)76 were not satisfied with
some of his conservative policies while he
was in office.
In a last-ditch attempt to win back some
liberal support, Carter began giving large
amounts of money to many interest
groups, Glad said.
CFA chairman: Student
fees probably will go up
By Patti Gallagher
Although the Committee on Fees Allo
cations has not formally begun to consider
the budgets for student fee-users, the CFA
chairman said Tuesday he expects that
students fees probably will be increased for
the 1981-82 academic year.
Mike Abramson said the budget for the
fee users are due before the end of the
semester. CFA formerly set Dec. 4 as the
budget submission deadline, he said.
Abramson said CFA is now in an educat
ional period. With only two of the 11
mcmber group as previous CFA members,
the committee has been using this semester
to become familiar with the groups and
their budgets.
He said CFA members have been div
ided into two committees, one to study
Fund A budget requests and one to studv
Fund B.
Fund A users include ASUN, the Daily
Nebraskan and the University Program
Council. Fund B includes the Nebraska
Unions, the University Health Center
and recreation facilities.
From what he has heard about the new
budgets. Abramson said he would expect
the per student fee to be raised next year.
Among those groups expected to present
increased budgets are the health center,
primarily because of a 10 percent em
ployee salary increase, and ASUN for ad
ditional programs.
Abramson said that CFA members
hope to study the budgets during semester
break. They will being hearings on the
fee-user's budgets by Jan. 15, he said.
CFA plans to have the schedule of hearings
completed this week.
After the hearings, Abramson said,
CFA will make recommendations for
changes or deletions if necessary. He said
they will try to follow the group's prop
osals if presented with substantiated reas
ons. After CFA considers and approves the
budgets, they must be considered and ap
proved by ASUN, the vice chancellor for
student affairs, the UNL chancellor, and
the NU Board of Regents.
Abramson said they will work with the
Commission on Fees, which is currently
conducting a survey to determine if stud
ents think their fees are being spent prop
erly. He said CFA will include those re
sults in their budget considerations.
