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. s.:c.VV,,.,V,,J.,V..W,.. 1 1 N ji - NEWSLINE 472-2588 Help us cover you.

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.
