Daily Nebraskan Pago 9 Eegem eamdMate lmrges realism, Wednesday, April 18, 1934 Note: This is the second in a tlirec-part series about the campaign for the NU Board of Eegents District 1 scat. By Steele Thor.i3 The NU Board of Regents has not formed long term realistic goals, said Don Fricke, 7800 Pioneers Blvd., a candidate for the District 1 regent seat. Fricke said his primary goal as regent would be to help form those goals. "I see the university 03 in a holding pattern or losing ground and I want to see if I can do something about that " Fricke said. He said the goals should be determined by consul tation with the governor and the Legislature to decide what they want the university to be. The goals should be set in relation to the number of people in the state and the funding available, Fricke said. Fricke also said the university has not progressed the way it should because of a lack of leadership on the board. "If you don't have leadership at the top, you're not going to get it from the bottom," Fricke said. Fricke said he can help provide that leadership because he feels he has the long-term stability needed for the job of regent. Fricke has been in dental practice for 20 years and is still engaged in farming. Fricke said he has experience working with the Legislature because he has been the legislative chairman for the Nebraska Dental Association for three years. Although he is in favor of continued faculty salary increases, Fricke said salary isn't the whole answer. The university needs good facilities for the faculty to work in to keep them here. "We need to try to get the university on the Big Eight level and certainly not at the bottom where it's been in terms of faculty salaries and facilities," he said. Fricke said the responsibilities of regent are to be a strong advocate of the university and to present the problems and needs of the university to the people of Nebraska, the governor and the Legisla ture. This should be done by creating realistic long term goals and priorities, and presenting them to the governor and the Legislature, he said. 3 1 at "flic 2??o o; y puW ir e fed1 10 vi in fcatk Shorts Representatives from various Nebraska groups will hold a press conference at 10 am. today to announce a lawsuit against the U.S. Air Force and the Department of Defense over the proposed deployment of the MX missile system.
