    Union paint job includes halls,
south entrance, meeting rooms
By Gene Gcntnip
"It's like painting the Golden Gate bridge. By the
time you finish it, it's time to start all over again."
So says Frank Kuhn, assistant director of opera
tions in the Nebraska Union, of the buildings paint
job this summer.
Kuhn said the painting job includes the south
entry to the union, its hallways and meeting rooms.
Union night manager M&rv Buysman said the
paint colors will be aimed at creating a pleasant
mood in the hallways and for creating an accent in
the meeting rooms. .
"We try to use a lot of mellow colors," he said.
Kuhn said the busier union areas usually get
painted every three to four years and the not-so-busy
areas every five to six years.
Besides the painting, there is a good amount of
renovation going on too, Kuhn ald.
The Campus Activities and Programs Office is
undergoing some construction. Kuhn said the rooms
in the office will be more functional, when the con
struction is done.
The renovation projects open a lot of Job3 for
summer students and gets them better acquainted
with the union facilities, Kuhn said. He said he
expects most of the work to be completed shortly
before the beginning of fall semester classes, Aug. 27.

UNL receives
record amount
for research
By Steele Thomas
UNL received a record
$31,757,820 for research
from governmental and
private sources in 1983
84. But the increase does
not reflect a change in
university policy, said
Earl Freise, assistant vice
chancellor for research.
This year's record funds,
$5,11 7,282 more than last
year's simply reflect the
faculty's attempts to keep
up with inflation, Freise
said.
The cost of carrying out
research projects is in
creasing, and faculty
must try to get more fund
ing to keep up with the
inflation. Faculty mem
bers are working on it
continually, he said.
The previous record, set
in 1980-81, was
$31,749,400, just $8,420
less than this year's rec
ord. Freise said funding
during the years in bet
ween was below normal.
UNL faculty members
submitted proposals for
research projects total
ing more than $43 million
in the 1983-84 fiscal year.
Funding for research,
in sciences such as phys
ics, chemistry, biology and
in engineering are Increas
ing at a rate slightly above
the level of inflation, he
said. However, funding in
other areas, such as social
sciences and humanities,
is becoming more difficult
to get because govern
ment sources seem to be
allocating less money to
these areas.
One major program
which was allocated a
large amount of research
support during the past
year is UNL's Agency for
International Develop
ment in Morocco. The $19
million that the project
will receive during the
next five years will be
used to expand UNL's
leadership in dryland crop
ping systems in Morocco.
The International Pro
grams Division of the In
stitute of Agriculture and
Natural Resources also re
ceived $742,000 in 1983
84 to support its interna
tional sorghum-millet pro
gram. The INTSORMIL pro
gram is an international
research network involv
ing eight U. S. universities
and a dozen research jn
stitutions overseas under
the overall leadership and
direction of UNL.
