Wellness Weelc
Program success is 'joint effort'
By Molly Adams
Staff Reporter
TheUniversity Health Center's Fourth Annual
Wellness Week begins today with a ribbon
cutting ceremony to dedicate the recently reno
vated health center.
The ceremony will be at 1 1 a.m. in front of the
center. Tours of the building will follow.
The success of Wellness Week is possible
because of the resourcefulness and contribu
tions of many people, said Vicki Highstreet, well
ness program coordinator.
"It's been a joint effort of a lot of people, not
just people from the health center," she said.
Officials in physiology, nutrition and other
areas with expertise in health and fitness were
consulted and helped plan Wellness Week,
Highstreet said.
The center's community health department,
which coordinates wellness programs, used many
sources to organize this year's Wellness Week.
"There are a lot of resources on campus to tap
from, and we've really tapped from some of the
best," Highstreet said.
The result of their work is a lineup of speakers
and health programs, Highstreet said.
Today at noon in the Nebraska Union, Dr.
Wesley Sime, director of the UNL Stress Physiol
ogy Lab, will speak about stress management
and how to get "more zest out of life with less
effort."
At 7:30 tonight, Jean Kilbourne, assistant
director of the New England Screen Education
Association, will be the keynote speaker for "Do
It Sober III." The program, sponsored by Sigma
Alpha Epsilon fraternity, Delta Gamma sorority
and the Lincoln Council on Alcoholism and
Drugs, is in its third year and deals with alcohol,
awareness.
Michael Pollock, director of human perfor
mance and cardiac rehabilitation with Universal
Services Rehabilitat ion and Development Inc. in
Houston will discuss the benefits of exercise and
the importance of fitness, Highstreet said.
Most of the activities during Wellness Week
are scheduled to accommodate students' sche
dules, Highstreet said.

Chambers says violence will end apartheid
By Michael Hooper
Staff Reporter
South African blacks have been
pushed to the point where they can
only resolve the injustices of apartheid
through violence, State Sen. Ernest
Chambers said Friday at an anti
apartheid rally.
Speaking to a crowd of about 200 at
Broyhill Fountain, Chambers said blacks
no longer can ignore the oppression in
South Africa. Apartheid is the legal
segregation of a minority.
"Violence is certainly coming to
South Africa," he said.
Chambers said if the blacks in South
Africa killed all of the racist whites
ther, the injustices of apartheid would
be eliminated.
"On the first Sunday in December
to give the white people a chance to
change if they choose to at 9 a.m.,
every black person, since there is 22.7
million black people and 4.7 million
white people, every black person should
grab a white person and off him or her,
and in less than half an hour, the whole
problem will be solved," Chambers
said.
Chambers said that solution is reas
onable, " as long as violence and killing
is being inflicted on black people by
the government," he said.
Chambers said UNL practices a form
of apartheid, referring to a recent Daily
Nebraskan article that said UNL has
1,062 white, 56 Asian, eight Hispanic
and three black faculty members. He
also said there is a hypocrisy when it
comes to the UNL football team and
UNL faculty members.
"So where they can find a way to
spend hundreds of thousands of dollars
to recruit black athletes to make money
for this school," he said, "they can't
find the will or the money to recruit
black faculty members to demonstrate
the true mission of this university."
Chambers said it is easy for people
to show concern about problems 10,000
miles away, but people "cut out" on
problems close to home.
"Unfortunately, in a state like
Nebraska and on a campus like this
one, matters such as football and bas
ketball, panty raids and things of that
nature have a much higher profile and
take the student attention," he said.
"When the faculty members and the
administration, the (NU) Board of
Regents and the Legislature can see
that students are more concerned about
panty raids, (that) is why you get no
consideration from those people,"
Chambers said.
"They could spit on you, and you
would swallow it and go along and not
make a protest of any significance," he
said.
Chambers said students have to
speak "the language of oppressors" if
they want to accomplish something.
Chambers told the apartheid protes
tors not to get discouraged because so
few were there.
"Let this day be a beginning, not just
to continue trying to do something
about South Africa, but to correct some
of the inequities and racism on this
campus," he said.
He said white leaders in South
Africa are meeting with members of the
outlawed African National Congress
because the economy is about to col
lapse, "not because they suddenly
developed an understanding and ap
preciation for human rights."
"The racists in South Africa, with
the complicity of Ronald Reagan and
the racists in this country, have said, 'If
it's necessary to keep our economy by
dismantling apartheid, we'll dismantle
it. If we can keep it by dismantling
aspects of it and retaining others,
that's what we'll do,' and went right
down the line following the pattern
laid out by Abraham Lincoln," during
the Civil War, Chambers said.

Department practices shared
UNL, Missouri scout police operations
By Todd von Kampen
Senior Reporter
The Nebraska-Missouri football game
may be a week away, but scouts from
each university already are sizing up
each other's operations police
operations, that is.
Sgt. Derick Amos of the University of
Missouri Police Department spent last
week working with UNL police officers.
UNL Police Sgt. John Lustrea met with
Missouri police in Columbia, Mo., at
the same time, said UNL Police Chief
Gail Gade.
The exchange was arranged so UNL
and Missouri police can work together
better and get a better look at each
other's departments, Gade said. Al
though many college police officers
visit other campus departments, they
rarely have enough time while there to
pick up hints on how to improve their
own departments.
"When the (UNL) officer comes
back," Gade said, "hopefully some
ideas will crop up that we can look at."
While at UNL, Amos studied the
operation of the department's parking,
criminal and patrol divisions. Other
activities included reviews of security
at Memorial Stadium and the Bob Dev
aney Sports Center and a tour of the
Lincoln Police Department. He also
accompanied officers on patrol.
Amos said he was impressed with
the communication among UNL police
officers and between the department
and the UNL community. He said UNL
police's practice of calling on residence
halls and Greek houses "to make sure
everything's OK" helps police and stu
dents understand each other better.
"There is a certain type of contact
here that is missing in Columbia," he
said. "And it's a suggestion I'm going to
take back with me."
During his visit, Amos said, he met
most of the officers and got to know
them by their first names. He said good
rapport between UNL and Missouri
departments will make it easier for
them to exchange information.
Amos said he toured Lincoln. He
liked what he saw, he said, but he
regretted missing Nebraska's football
game with New Mexico.
"I'm a little sorry about that I
would have looked forward to getting
quite involved," he said.
Gade said he will have a better idea
of how UNL police could learn from
Missouri after Lustrea comes back to
Lincoln. The UNL department is con
sidering an exchange with University of
Colorado police later this year, he said.
UNL, Japan begin
exchange program
Officials from UNL and Senshu
University in Japan will sign an
agreement today to establish a new
sxchange program for the two uni
- ersities' students and facutly mem
bers. Senshu officials Masayoshi Deu
shi, Yoshiyuki Oshima and Norio
Takemura and UNL Chancellor Mar
tin Massengale will sign the agree
ment. The idea for the exchange began
last year when Takemura visited a
UNL faculty member.
Senshu is a private university
with about 20,000 students on two
campuses.
