Physician's assistant working on East Campus
East Campus now has a physician's assistant on duty
Wednesdays from 8 a.m. to 4 pjn. at the Health Resource
Center, said Dr. Gerald Fleischli, medical director of the
University Health Center.
"The physician's assistant at East Campus is there on
a trial basis to see what kind of need we have for the ser
vice," Fleischli said. "We will evaluate the program and
decide whether to continue it next semester."
Fleischli said the program is one way for the health
center to improve student services without increasing
space, because the East Campus Health Resource Center,
East Union 316, was staffed by a registered nurse week
days from 2 to 4 pjn. The nurse will work the same hours
as before, but not on Wednesday.
One problem which had to be solved before the pro
gram could begin concerned patient records, which are
located at the Health Center on City Campus. Fleischli
said information from the records will be transferred to
the East Campus location through a telephone dictating
machine, which both locations already have.
"The dictating machine also links the physician's assis
tant with a specific physician at the health center in case
of questions," he said. "Qualified physicians review the
patient and co-sign the records along with the physician's
assistant."
"The physician's assistant can write prescriptions,
but we do not have a pharmacy on East Campus," he
said. "In the future, I do hope to stock some drugs at the
East Campus Health Resource Center."
The East Campus physician's assistant also will work
during the lunch hour because that is the only time some
law and dental students can use the center, Fleischli said.
A program similar to this was started at UNO about a
year ago, with a physician's assistant working two days
a week.
"The students really liked it, and the service has been
extended to a full-time physician's assistant at UNO,"
Fleischli said.

Paper collector limiting scrap pickup
The collection of much of UNL's scrap paper for re
cycling was discontinued Feb. 15 for economic reasons,
according to Roger Downs of Dennis Paper Sales, 530
West P St.
"We'll continue to pick up the scrap bond and comput
er paper from Administration and we are trying to get a
contract for the computer paper from the Nebraska Hall
Computer Center," Downs said.
"The discontinuation is strictly a result of economics
on the paper market," Downs said. 'The low-grade
paper (mostly newspapers and corrugated cardboard) we
had been picking up has no value on the market."
The paper collected by Dennis Paper Sales is shredded,
shipped to mills and re-manufactured as toilet and facial
tissue.

and at the university is shredded by us then sold to other
companies," Downs said.
Jay Schluckcbier, assistant director of the Grounds
Department, said the discontinuation shouldn't cause
much additional litter on campus.
"Ninety percent of the low-grade paper that was pre
viously picked up consisted of Daily Nebraskans,"
Schluckcbier said. 'That is a problem mostly contained in
buildings and classrooms, some of which can really be a
mess."
"I don't think it (discontinuation of some pick-ups)
will be a problem," he said. 'The custodial department
will take the brunt of the extra litter if there is any."
The waste paper will be taken to the city dump along
with other refuse, Schluckebier said.
