Tickets . . .
Continued from Page 1
People who order season tickets must re-order everv
year.
"People call and say 'I didn't hear from you,' and ex
pect to have the ticket waiting for them. You have to or
der theatre tickets every time, but a lot of people figure
their football tickets are automatic," Wagner said.
Single ticket orders are easier to handle, she said. If a
former football player calls to arrange for two tickets (to
the Oklahoma game, for example), the ticket office will
try to oblige.
Members of the Beef and Touchdown Clubs donate
$150 or more per year. Those who do not already have
season tickets also are assisted in their efforts to reserve
additional seating on a single-game basis, Wagner said.
"If we have to go to a priority system, we do," Wagner
said. Former football players, members of the contribut
ing clubs, faculty and staff members, alumni and students,
in that order, have priority, she said.
Some faculty members might like to change that order,
Andrews said.
Faculty displeased
"Faculty who have invested more of themselves in
their career and in (he university are sometimes dis
pleased with where their seat is." Andrews said.
While he said he can sympathize with them, Andrews
also is aware of logistics.
"There are 76.000 seats there (at Memorial Stadium)
and not all of them can be on the 50-yard line," he said.
That is why UNL's intercollegiate Athletic Committee
decided to take the faculty member's academic rankings
as the determining factor in seating.
However, seniority and academic ranking have no bear
ing on the number of tickets faculty and staff can buy,
Andrews said. Faculty and staff may buy one ticket at
about 75 percent of the regular ticket price, and another
at full price.
"Ticket distribution is an equitable policy treats
everybody the same way." Andrews said.
Andrews and Wagner both said they understood the
ticket -related problems.

RHA approves temporary triple
roommate plan for next fall
The Residence Hall Association voted to approve the
tentative plan for assigning triple rooms to residents
next fall.
The plan, presented by Housing Director Doug Zat
echka, establishes 130 large end rooms as permanent
triple occupancies and 152 additional end rooms as
temporary triples.
A resident contracted for a permanent triple room still
will pay the regular double occupancy rate, he said,
because these rooms are nearly one-third larger than other
rooms.
Each triple will be furnished with three complete sets
of dressers, desks and beds, he added.
The plan allows upperclassmen first priority in signing
up for the temporary triple rooms, knowing they will be
assigned a freshman in the fall as a temporary roommate.
As spaces then become available, this third roommate
will be moved. If this doesn't happen by Sept. 15, the
temporary roommate will receive a rebate based on the
number of days he or she remains in the room past that
date.
Residents in temporary triples also will pay the double
occupancy rate, Zatechka said.
RHA also heard a request from Doreen Charles of the
Afrikan Peoples Union about RHA giving money to send
a student to the Big Eight Conference on Black Student
Government.
APU hopes to send 40 students to the conference,
she said, at the cost of $75 per person. RHA turned
down Charles' request.
The association also voted to approve Harper Hall
representative Reg Kulin as co-chairman of the RHA
Judiciary Board, and voted to table approval of the J
Board by-laws until next week.
The no-alcohol policy survey, which was RHA financed,
is being circulated, with a return deadline of Feb. 23,
according to Harper Hall representative Bill Flack.
Concerns cause housing director to
move HEP students from halls
By Ward W. Triplett III
After hearing concerns from Harper residence hall
staff, UNL housing director Doug Zatechka said he
ordered High School Equivalency Program students re
moved from UNL residence halls.
He said the decision came after two or three meet
ings with HEP staff and Human Resources director
Galen Dodge.
"He and I (Dodge) have spent some time, fall term
and this one, reviewing a lot of data, and we decided it
would be best for the delivery of the program, and for
university students to move HEP out of the buildings,"
Zatechka said.
HEP will continue but will not be a part of UNL
residence halls at least for the remainder of this semes
ter. HEP gives students the opportunity to earn the
equivalent of a high school diploma through the
Human Resources Division of UNL.
"HEP is a great idea, but the question is why are
they in the dorms?" said senior Glen Fiebig, who had
lived on a HEP floor his freshman year.
HEP counselor Anna Van Dyke said HEP students
are also worried.
"There's a lot of prejudice on both sides," Van
Dyke said.
"I don't think anyone who worked in the program
can say they didn't like the kids," Van Dyke said.
"But the administration there just has the wrong idea
of what to do with them.
"They've been put in a situation where for the first
time they are making their own decisions and they're
not good at that so they get in trouble.
"It's not really their fault."
