Worksheets 'frills' at UNL
I share John Janovey's incredulity (Daily Nebraskan,
March 10) at our inability to provide minimal teaching
materials in UNL classes. In economics, my requirements
arc less elaborate than Janovy's (I need no "living mat
erial," disecting equipment, ect.) But I do occasionally
need to provide a worksheet for students. That means a
Xerox copy of data and instructions necessary to work
through a concept in economics for each of 40 students in
class. I am told that our budget does not allow such frills,
and that furthermore, I should write exam questions on
the blackboard so that students need not be given a sheet
of paper with the questions on it.
As we do not have a "lab fee" to use for these "enrich
ment" materials, I have been supporting classroom
materials out of my pocket this semester. Perhaps we
have, in these teaching conditions, some indication of
what leads to a "one-star" academic rating for UNL in
The New York Times' recently published guide to colleges
and universities.

Even the Golden State of California is hurting. People
who went three years ago looking for work are looking for
work again. Unemployment is way up. The housing in
dustry is desperate. The movie business is hurting and
farm income is down by six percent. The other day, they
closed a car plant. The last car rolled off the assembly
line. People watched and then they put their hands in
their pockets and tried to figure out what they would do
next.
Maybe it won't happen. We're only in a recession, not
a despresion and there are things the government cat) do
now it could not do in the 1930s. There are all kinds of
insurance and social programs. But still, people are on the
road again and plants keep closing, and being out of work
is beinn out of work. It reminds you of something, doesn't
it?
Happy days are here again.

BARB: Now wait just a cotton-pickin' minute! You
aren't going to have wife-beating on national television!
BOB: Now, Barb, honey, don't get all excited! With
the intelligence level this audience has, they won't be able
to tell the difference.
BARB: All right, we'll change it. But I want the punch-ing-out
deleted.
AMY: You just want to suggest it, right?
BOB: Good idea! It gives the illusion that the man is
dominant without showing the reality! Barb, you're a sub
genius. BARB: That ought to make Fred feel powerful - God
knows he needs it.
AMY: OK, the man walks into the kitchen . . .
