I1 A votes to increase
lor N ebr aska Union's
budget
By Collsea Kcrsiey
Staff Be jorter
Students will pay 11X3 more in stu
dent fees next year to support the
Nebraska Unions. Each student v.1U
pay a tcid of $22.03 each semester.
The Committee for Fees Allocations
voted last week to approve this 7.8 per
cent increase over last year's union
budget. Next year's union budget is
more than $1 million.
Student fees support 25 percent cf
the total budget. The rest comes from
its business.
However, the union budget will be
lowered by $5,003 if the proposal to
consolidate the Culture Center with
the newly acquired Commonplace Build
ing meets Union Board approval.
Besides approving the union's mrjcr
budget requests, CFA allocated about
$25,000 extra to cover the costs of
opening and operating the Common
place Building. CFA allocated $9,000
for utility costs. Utilities costs will be
cut to $4,500 if the consolidation
occurs.
The unions were allocated $12,000
for the salary of a new staff member,
who will coordinate information and
marketing efforts.
"We feel students aren't adequately
informed cf the services that their stu
dent fees can offer," said Daryl Swan
sen, director of Nebraska unions.
The new position, which will open in
July, will publicize union programs,
including its food and recreation servi
ces, Swanson said.
The union's request for a 22 percent
increase in operating expenses was cut
to 1 1 percent to comply with a request
from UNL Chancellor Martin Massen
gale. The cut represents about $8,700.
Direct labor benefits also were de
creased 3 percent, or more than $39,000,
from the requested figure. It was cut to
'keep this in line with what our other
fund agencies received," said CFA sub
committee member David Cox.
