Figures indicate 2,276 favor formation of SSA
By Patfi Gallagher
Thursday filial figures on lasl week's petition drive to
form a State Student Association indicated that 2.276
signatures were obtained.
By last F riday, 1,674 students had signed the petiton.
According to Nette Nelson, chair of the Government Lia
ison Committee, between 20 and 25 will be turned in
today .
An SSA body is composed of students from all the
state colleges and universities that lobbies for statewide
student concerns.
UNI. members of the SSA will meet with other stud
ent representatives on Jan. 22. The State College Board of
Trustees meet in Lincoln on that clay. Nelson said, and
will provide a convenient opportunity to meet with other
college leaders.
Nelson explained that the Governement LiaisonCom
mittee and the SSA are not the same group. GLC is the
UNL student lobbying body, she said, whereas the SSA
will lobby for issues of state concern.
After being further organized, the SSA will elect its
own chair and be completely separate from GLC. she said.
Nelson said a second petition drive will be taken during
January for two weeks. The drive is to get student support
behind an SSA, she said, and no specific number ot sig
natures is being sought.
Other SSA activities planned for next semester include
a visit from Missouri student lobbyist, contact with every
student organization at UNL and condensing the SSA
fact sheets that have been distributed to explain the assoc
iation.
Nelson said that because ol the fast pace at which an
SSA is being formed, -many student groups on campus
have not yet been contacted. By going to each group
"One-on-one." she predicted additional support could bo
picked up for the association.
GLC members have speai headed the el forts to form an
SSA diirim' this semester. In addition to the petition
drive other efforts to form an SSA have included visits
by the national chairman of the United States Student
Asso.-i:ition and tin director of the Kansas State Student
Association, meetings with students fiom the other NU
campuses and meetings witn state legislators ami univers
