Fricke said the regents should govern both
systems, but he doesn't fiver merging the two.
But Robinson said it would be a "monumen
tal task" to keep the two systems separate if
the regents govern both.
Norm&n Thereon, UNL Faculty Senate presi

unanimously to eppece merging the four state
colleges with the university system.

William Miller, chairman of the agricultural
economics department, told the regents about
three programs the extension service has deve
loped to cope with farm stress.
In the "Managing For Tomorrow" program,
Miller said, 10 to 20 farm families participate
in four weekly sessions. The families set goals
and improve their decision making skills. After
they complete the workshops, he said, the fam
ilies meet with counselors five times during
the following year for individual advice.
Miller said the program is funded by the
U.S. Department of Agriculture, the state, the
state Agriculture Department, the University
and participant fees. He said some of the par
ticipant fees are paid by the families' banks.
The extension service also has established
frc farm financial counseling centers across
the state, Miller said. Counselors spend from
two to fourhoun with each farm family, pre
paring paperwork the farmer can take to the
bank when he ask for a loan.
The state Agriculture Department pays for
the program, Miller said, so the service is free
to farmers.
A third program was developed when a bank

town to help farmers who were left without

said. The counselors helped the formers pre

state colleges and save money.
He said he thinks the present system is
working well. Simmons said he strongly
believes that "you don't fix something until
it's broken."
ASUN President Mark Scudder said the sin

and individual universities. He said the board
should form its own specific proposal, not
support an "open-ended document"
The resolution passed by a 4-3 vote, with
Hoch, Robinson and Simmons dissenting.
In other business the regents:
