r Friday, April 16,1982 Daily Nebraskan Page 7 Board announces its plan for improvements in union Union Board President Laura Mc.wr Wednesday outlined the board's three main goals for 1982-83. Meyer said one of the board's goals is to develop and implement a plan to improve services provided by the University Book store. She said the goal may be accomplished by following the university's Five-Year Han, which provides for control of the bookstore or upgrading services, renovating the Nebraska Union basement and working with the Business and Finance Department to reach a reasonable compromise. Improving communication between the Campus Activities and Programs office, the board and the ASUN Senate is another goal. Meyer said this may be accomplished by using the board's programs and activities council committee to investigate the CAP office for information concerning struc ture and finance. Meyer said the goal may also be accom plished by working with the senate to inform it about CAP, and reporting board issues periodically to the senate. She said improving communications be tween the three groups will enable the board to be prepared for Committee for Fees Allocation budget proposals in years to come and to alleviate misunderstan dings. The board's final goal is to develop and Thone . . . Continued from Page 6 Thone recalled when he was a 16-year-old and came to the university. As a sophomore, he pledged Phi Gamma Delta and through this he learned many things, he said. "One think I learned was to submit to the will of the majority and another was to shape my conduct to the standards of others," Thone said. He said his experience helped him in law school, and in life. "I loved college," he said, "I had a ball." Thone said if students remembered nothing else from his speech, they should remember one thing: "These are truly your golden years." implement a Nebraska Union Public Re lations Plan. Meyer said student awareness of the function of the board, union issues and union services could be increased by establishing an ad hoc committee. During the meeting, Richard Armstrong, vice chancellor of Student Affairs talked about the union's utility costs, and the Five Year Plan. He said utility costs have been a major concern for the last two years. Armstrong said the unions have been using a plan since July 1 , 1 98 1 , which has the unions pay 50 percent of their utility costs. The university pays the other half. The plan calls for a 10 percent annual increase in the union's paying of its utility costs un til July 1, 1986, when the unions will be self-sustaining. Armstrong said there have been prob lems meeting the 50 percent commitment this year and the unions need additional sources of income to become self-sufficient. Producing additional sources of income will be a challenge, he said. Board members voted to reinstate the unions' 10-cent coffee and tea offer during finals week. The board also voted to extend union hours to 1 a.m. on City Campus and mid night on East Campus during finals week on the condition that the hours may be changed later in the week because of de creased student traffic through the unions. ?
