Work continues at the Wick AlumniCenter construction site It 1520 R St.
Work progresses on Alumni Center
"We hope to get the building (Wick Alumni Center)
closed in by December - then they can continue to
work inside," said Jack Miller, executive vice president
of the UNL Alumni Association. "That is, if the weather
cooperates."
The construction of the alumni center, 1520 R St.,
has been complicated by the rainy spring and summer.
Miller explained that the ground is very wet, which makes
it hard for the men to work. However, he said, the
problem is not serious, and construction of the building
will not fall behind schedule. The center is scheduled to
be completed in September 1983.
"It's hard to say what has been accomplished so far,"
he said. "The different stages move along at different
rates. Considering the weather, they are doing well."
The entire budget for the building is $3.6 million.
The funds come from alumni donations. The total covers

the endowment and the furnishings as well as the cost
of the building itself.
Miller said there is little danger of going over that
budget, because the cost of construction was agreed upon
with the construction firm before building began. To
date, about $200,000 has been spent, he said.
The center, on which construction started in May,
is to be a general-purpose building for alumni, faculty
and students. It will contain offices, conference rooms
and public meeting space. The center is named for Milton
Wick, who died last November, and his family, who
contributed $1 million to the project.
Fraternity continues
search for gold lion
There's a lion loose in Lincoln.
A gold-painted concrete lion, stolen from the
Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity house at UNL, is still
missing.
Joel Ballantyne, a member of the fraternity who
lived in the house this summer, said the two lion statues
that border the fraternity's entrance were stolen in late
July.
Clark Landers, fraternity president, said the house
has always had a pair of lions near its entrance, but the
fixtures have been stolen often.
The most recent pair stolen, located in front of the
house for about a year and a half, were bolted to the
ground, he said. The statues also would have been dif
ficult to lift and carry because of their weight.
One of the lions was found in a neighboring fraternity
house, Ballantyne said.
Landers said he thinks the lion was stolen as a sorority
prank or "on a dare" by a student.
Several personals in the Daily Nebraskan regarding
the stolen lions gave Landers and the rest of the Sigma
Alpha Epsilon members no clue to who stole the lion,
he said.
"We contacted Dan Shattil, general manager for the
Daily Nebraskan, and he looked at the personal receipts,
but the person gave a fictitious address," Landers said.
Although the police were not contacted and the
fraternity has no solid leads on the whereabouts of its
lion, Landers said the search continues to try to regain
the missing property.
