having one registered student lobbyist
is more effective than hiring a full-time
lobbyist," he said.
Eurke also ss'd Lock supports the
UNL faculty opposition to the proposed
"super board."
The super board was proposed as
one of SO recommendations by the Citi
zens Commission for fee Study of
t Higher Education. The board would
consist of nine members, three from
each congressional district. The gover
nor would appoint regents to six-year
terms on the board.
. "By kcerperating more schools under
one board it could get worse," Burke
said.

should remain the same.

elections by colleges with an election
by living units. Five additional stu
dents would be elected from off-campus
residents, Eve from residence halls and
five from fraternity and sorority houses.
Gc'datcin called the program a " Yecruit-
nsent process' where more diversified
student senators could go out in differ
ent areas and get a greater response
from students."
Lane said Look wants to get off
campus students, involved through a
project now used by Iowa State Univer
sity, called the "Off-Campus Survival
Guide " Lane said the guide, a refer
ence book, would help students know
what is available to them on campus.
"It would let them feel that cn-
campus students want them on cam
pus," Lane said. '"
e-Keatisg said he agreed that off cam
pus students are vital to a successful
university. .
"We will utilize off campus people in
the senate and ASUN and have them
communicate with students off cam
pus, on city campus, and east campus,"
Keating said.
