When comparing the use of classroom
space among universities, it must be noted
that at UNL only 10 percent of all avail
able space is actually designated for class
rooms, Pazderka said. The rest is used for
storage and office space.
Out of 281 designated classrooms,
279 rooms have been scheduled for use at
UNL, Pazderka said. There are 102 addi
tional rooms not designated as classrooms
that also are being used.
Although two of the 281 rooms have
not been scheduled for classroom use, it
doesn't mean they're not being used, Paz
derka said.
The average class size at UNL is 34.8
students although the average class size
scheduled at UNL is 55.5 students, he said.
That means a professor may schedule
a classroom for 553 students and it is
recorded as such, but in actuality there
are 34,8 students in the class.
Pazderka said schools across the country
usually try to fill 60 percent of the desks

MIAC is a consortium
of five land-grant instit
utions including Iowa State,
Kansas State and Oklahoma
State universities, NU and
the University of Missouri,
Schulze said.
Contracted in February
of 1980 for a five-year
term with the Agency for
International Development
within the State Depart
ment in Washington, MIAC
is responsible for organ
izing the Morocco dryland
farming project, Schulze
said.
The purpose of the farm
ing project, which encom
passes 30,000 square miles
of land within the inter
ior of the northwest Af
rican country, is to "dev
elop an applied research
program to increase cer
eal, legume and forage prod
uction in the semi-arid ar
eas," Shulze said.
Schulze said the pro
ject's purpose also is "to
contribute to the exten
sion of the technologies
developed among the small
farmers of the area."
in a classroom on the average. Student
utilization of classrooms at UNL is on the
average 59-53 percent.
Some designated classrooms are used
more than others based on the course being
taught and the condition of the classroom,
he said.
An example of a classroom poorly
used is Henzlik Hall 53, which is used an
average of eight hours a week and has 15
percent of available sets filled, Pazderka
said.
Some of the best-used classrooms are in
the college of Business Administration.
Classrooms overall are 66 percent filled,
Pazderka said.
An example is CBA 330, which based on
an average use of 30 hours per week has
a student utilization of 144 percent.
The biggest problem n classroom use is
modernization of classrooms, Pazderka
said. One solution to poor use of rooms is
in renovating them or using them for
things other than classrooms.
