the actual rate increase may

Douglas Zatcchka said
the Office of University
Housing staff originally had
recommended raising rates
$150, the same amount
which Kathy Mach, a mem
ber of RIIA's rate study
committee, announced at
RIIA's Thursday meeting.
However, after a housing
staff meeting Friday
Zatechka said he was recon
sidering housing's proposed
budget for the 1982-83
school year to see if cuts
could be made that would
help lower the proposed
room and board increase.
"We're still looking for
areas to cut," Zatechka said,
"so the increase could be
lower than $150. I don't
mean a lot lower - like
$100 - but to about $140
or $145."
Zatechka said a $5 or
$10 difference in housing
rates might not seem like
much to students, "but it
could mean $50,000 less in
income to housing."
At RIIA's meeting, Mach
said housing needed an
extra $150 per student to
balance its budget for the
coming year. She said the
proposed budget was a con
tinuation of this year's bud
get, with no major cuts or
additions. Each category of
expenditures was scheduled
to receive about the same
percentage of the total bud-

get that it is receiving this
school year, she said. How
ever, Mach said, since total
budget expenses in 1982-83
will be higher because of in
flation, housing has to
charge higher room and
board rates to cover the
difference.
Budget similar
Zatechka said he agreed
that the originally proposed
budget which Mach explain
ed to RHA was much the
same as this year's budget.
But Zatechka said hous
ing has since decided to
"look for areas to cut" so
that the room and board in
creases can be less than as
first expected.
Zatechka said he would
know what the final pro
posed increase is by Mon
day or Tuesday and will
discuss the budget and the
rate increase with students
in the Nebraska Union Tues
day. Explaining that the 6:30
pjn. discussion would be
like "a town meeting,"
Zatechka said he urged stu
dents to attend and give
their opinions on the bud
get, rate increase, the ser
vices they like or dislike in
the residence halls and relat
ed issues.
Mach had urged RHA
members to tell students liv
ing in the halls to go to the
meeting if
complaints,
suggestions
they had any
comments or
for Zatechka.
No voting
Besides the rate increase,
other topics were discussed
at the RHA meeting, but no
votes could be taken be
cause there wasn't a
quorum.
Paul Rea, a representa
tive from Neihardt Resi
dence Complex, said hall
governments should con
sider replacing RHA repre
sentatives who have missed
more than half of the meet
ings this school year.
Richard McKinnon, RHA
adviser, said there has been
a rash of thefts recently in
the residence halls, especial
ly in women's halls.
McKinnon said all stu
dents living in the halls
should lock their doors
whenever they leave their
rooms, even if they will be
gone for only a short time,
lie also said residents should
report any suspicious-looking
strangers on their floors
to housing staff members or
the campus police.
McKinnon said the dir
ector of housing will be at
RHA's next meeting to re
port on the proposed room
and board increase and the
feasibility of installing cable
television in the residence
halls.

Morrow called homosexuality an "addictive habit" that
can and should be broken. There is no need for a law to
protect a certain category of sinners, he said.
Some of the questions and answers brought up at the
panel discussion are summarized as follows:
Is homosexuality a chosen lifestyle?
Hardes:No. Sexual orientation is as basic as color or
creed to some people. The orientation occurs in early
childhood years.
Morrow: Yes. Homosexuality is learned behavior. A
desire to repent will enable people to overcome this be
havior through the power of God.
Does homosexuality contribute to the breakdown of
family life?
Morrow: Yes. Homosexual men and woman have aban
doned their natural functions.
Hardes: No. Pressure from society for homosexuals to
"straighten out" causes them to enter into unsuccessful
heterosexual marriages. '
Which fobs should be off-limits to homosexuals?
Young, Hardes and Bisman: None.
Hinrichs: Teaching, because homosexuals could in
fluence other people. Armed services, because homo
sexuals are more valuable than heterosexuals to interrogat
ion and blackmail.
Morrow: Teaching, because homosexual teachers could
decay the attitudes and morals of young people.
Would there be any problem with an ordinance that
prevented housing discrimination against homosexuals?
Bisman, Hardes and Young: No problem.
Morrow and Hinrichs: It would take away the land
lord's right to choose whether he wanted to have homo
sexuals living on his property.
The debate was sponsored by the Rev. Larry Doerr,
director of Commonplace United Ministries in Higher
Education. The Rev. Rex Bevins of St. Paul United
Methodist Church, was the moderator.
Tidball award promotes
creative humanity efforts
The deadline for nominations is March 1 for the new

Offices. Anyone can nominate a person involved with
UNL

with Commonplace-United Ministries in Higher Educat
ion when she died in 1976.
Larry Doerr, director at Commonplace, said from one

bration in mid-April. The stipend amount will vary with
the number of people receiving the award each year.
