Although the unemplo)"ns6nt rzte for
Lincoln dropped 17.5 percent during
1984, the job market in Lincoln has net

Jacque Educh, cpcratier.3 manager
for the service, ssid the unemplopient
rate for Lincoln dropped feom 4.0 in
Januery UZi to 3.3 in December 1834,

computers, Schinstock sdd. '
"This will not cause new courses to
be formed, but it will cdl for a review of
the computer courses in the agriculture
college," he said. '
People who received surveys were
asked to rate courses' credit hour
requirements, the college's course
qadity and what improvements the
college needs, Schinstock sdd. .
Although he did not give specifics,
Schinstock sdd some parts of the
college may be eliminated in order to
strengthen others. The university has
been emphasising the need for a variety
of 'fundamental courses and the com

eral mer.e'cr, seid that from July 1,

17,124 job applicents but listed 8,851
While 2,313 of those applicants were
locking for professional, teehnicd and
managerial jobs, only 214 cf the job
openings fit in these categories.
During tns sssie period, 1,207 of the
openings were in sales od 1,480 were'
clerical. .
Many sdes and cleried jobs are
being filled by people who were origl

said. This would give students better
job opportunities after they graduate.
"A broader background in fimdamen

students more flexible to move into
other jobs as they become available."

-' The committee also is seeking analysis
outside the college by consulting Jim
Roberts, the dean of Kansas State
University's agriculture school. Roberts,
chairman of the Agriculture 200 1
committee, is sharing his viewpoints
with the UNL's review committee
regarding the citizens' view of the
agriculture curriculum.

Biblical Im is based on punish
ment of crimes for which there are .
victims, Sileven said. In Old Testa
ment times, homeowners were
required to have barriers around
their rooftops. If a visitor fell off a
roof, the homeowner would be
punished for. breaking the law,
Sileven sdd.
But the ancient Hebrews had no
building inspectors, and they could
not be punished simply for failure to
build .the barrier, he sdd.
The U.S. Constitution was written .
on the Judeo-Chrisiian principle
that guarantees the "God-granted
rights" cf life, liberty and property,
Sileven said. , .
However, in the 20th century, the

Cut nsticndiy, 5 percent of the total
labor force has taken part-time jobs

ing to the U.S. Department cf Labor.
While r.rr.y rctdl job3 were created
in Lincoln lest yesr by the opening of
stores like ShcpKo and Tftrget, most cf
those were part time. Target, for

to the personnel department.
Edisch sdd that mejor department
' stores are moving toward hiring mere
workers. The Sears Roebuck and Co.
store at Gateway has 99 full-time em

according to its personnel department.
Part-time workers don't have to be
given the benefits full-time workers do,
" and merchants can schedule part-timers
