IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LAST CENTURY THOUSANDS OF EVANGELICAL
BORN-AGAIN CHRISTIANS xn this country decided that NO CHILD
OF GOD should bb a slave; that the whole system of slavery
was UNACCEPTABLE to A faith centered in a CHRIST WHO FREES
THE HEARTS, MINDS, SOULS AND BODIES OF BIS PEOPLE -
- AND THE SYSTEM OF LEGALIZED SLAVERY WAS ENDED 1
AT THE END OF THE 20th CENTURY, THE CALL IS FOR CHRISTIANS
WHOSE ONLY LORD IS JESUS CHRIST - not the nation, or the
ECONOMIC SYSTEM, OR THE AMERICAN WAY OF LIFE, OR MIDDLE
CLASS COMFORTS - THE CALL TO DECIDE ONCE AND FOR ALL THAT
THE WAR SYSTEM, THE ARMAMENTS SYTEM, THE MILITARY SYSTEM,
the death system, is UNACCEPTABLE TO CHRISTIAN FAITH; that
NO CHILD OF GOD SHOULD DIE OR BE MAIMED OR TERRORIZED BECAUSE
SOME POLITICIAN OR MILITARY LEADER OR WAR GAMES STATISTICIAN
DECIDES THAT HE OR SHE IS EXPENDABLE!

Task force recommendation
lowering requirements loses
Rejecting a task force's recommendat
ion to lower the foreign language require
ment for the bachelor of science degree
from two years to one, the UNL College
of Arts and Sciences faculty approved
"relatively minor" changes in degree re
quirements, said the college's associate
dean.
Tom Bestul said that at a Friday meet
ing, most of about 150 faculty members
also opposed a proposal of the Task Force
on Undergraduate Education which would
have dropped most of the 60-hour math
and natural sciences requirement.
Social science classes would have been
allowed to be substituted for all but 13
of the 60 hours of natural sciences and
math.
The changes approved open up two
options for degree seekers, he said. Under
one option, a "concentration requirement"
of 18 hours of studies in one area in ad
dition to 12 hours of humanities, nine
hours of social sciences and nine hours
of natural sciences will be required.
The other option requires 21 hours of
humanities and social sciences, he said.
At least six hours each of humanities
and social sciences and three hours of the
history of civilization and six hours of non
western and minority cultures must be
taken to fill the 21 hours, Bestul said.
At present, 18 hours of the humanities
and social sciences, including at least six
hours of each, are required, he said.
A proposal that would have allowed
students to substitute up to six hours of
"cultural diversity" classes, such as history
or literature of another civilization for
part of the 12-hour modern languages
requirement, was defeated.
The addition of a social science degree
as an option to the bachelor of arts and
sciences degree also was opposed, he said.
The Task force on Undergraduate Edu
cation, appointed in 1979, is composed
of students and faculty from the arts and
sciences college. The arts and sciences
faculty has set a tentative date of Nov. 16
to discuss implementing the degree
changes, Bestul said.
Survey: Dating more violent
Violence is a growing part of relation
ships between college students, according
to a survey by a University of Arizona
sociologist. Mary Reige Laner interviewed
students at colleges in Oregon, Arizona and
Minnesota and found about 60 percent had
experienced some form of physical
violence during dating relationships.
Nearly 30 percent said they expected
slapping, hitting or scratching in anger in
the course of serious relationships, and
over half of those who had experienced
this kind of violence said they still had a
relationship with the person they had
abused or were abused by.
Affection is becoming a more important
part of sexual relationships for college
men, according to a University of Iowa
professor who surveyed students at two
religiously-affiliated schools. He found
women still tended to abstain from pre
marital sex on religious grounds more often
than men.
But in a change from traditional male
attitudes, more men indicated the need for
emotional involvement before participating
in premarital sex. The survey included re
sponses from 415 students.
Alcoholics Anonymous is drawing a
greater percentage of young people to its
program. Since 1977, one in every four
new AA members has been 30 or under,
and one in 25 has been 20 or under,
according to a survey by the General Ser
vice Board of AA. The overall percentage
of young people rose from 1 1.3 percent to
14.7 percent in three years.
