BUDGET from Page 1
"The backlog's there," he said. "We
can see it building and we're frustrated
that we don't have the resources to
deal with it."
Because of the budget cuts, Furga
son said, UNL will not buy new equip
ment this year or replace broken-down
equipment. Many UNL departments, he
said, have been forced to abandon ser
vice contracts with repairmen to save
money.
"They're essentially playing the odds,
hoping that they won t break down," he
said.
Purchases of basic office supplies
also have been cut, which forces pro
fessors to pass on costs to students or
pay for supplies from their own pockets.
Tuck said professors are making
great use of copying services like Kin
ko's Copies that prepare packets for
students to buy.
Clarice Lipe, manager of Kinko's
downtown store at 1229 R St., would
not comment on her store's business.
Haack said NU has had to put off
many necessary repairs over the last
few years because of repeated mid year
budget cuts and small regular budgets.
The latest cuts, he said, mean that UNL
probably would not repair a ceiling if it
fell down.
"Eventually, it catches up with you,"
he said.
The recent spell of mild weather is
helping UNL survive the cuts in its
utility budget, Furgason said. But return
of bad weather coupled with the open
ing of new buildings like Barkley Cen
ter on East Campus could put the uni
versity in worse financial shape, he
said.
Haack said a bill has been intro
duced in the Legislature to replace
money cut from veterinary student
contracts. Such deficit appropriations
aren't unusual and normally pass, he
said.
"The students are already in (the
schools)," he said. "We're not going to
throw them out."
Tuck said that although academic
programs so far have been spared, cuts
in the operating budget hurt faculty
morale as well. Professors have seen
their teaching effectiveness reduced or
research projects crippled because
supplies and staff are not available, he
said.
"It's like saying, 'Do you want a rifle
or the ammunition to put in it?' " he
said. "You've got tradeoffs all the way
along."
Continual budget cuts make faculty
members wonder if state government is
committed to higher education, Tuck
said.
"You just start adding these things
together," he said, "and you get the
idea that your abilities aren't appreciated."

WELCOIVE BACK 1986 STUDENTS
Setting it Straight
An article titled, "Students Going
Back to Church," (Daily Nebraskan,
Jan. 16), incorrectly identified Pastor
James Bauer.
Bauer is campus pastor for the Luth
eran Chapel, 1510 Q St.
Washington, king of big spenders
COHEN from Page 4
Washington. Every year now, the presi
dent has called for a balanced budget
and then submitted one that's out of
balance. Every year, the president and
Congress have said that spending has
to be curtailed and every year it isn't.
The result has been the passage of
Gramm-Rudman-Hollings. But as a
draconian measure it is nothing com
pared to the jail term Jeffrey Levitt
faced and still he spent and spent. The
judge gave him 18 months.
For this reason, there ought to be
statues of Jeffrey Levitt all over Wash
ington maybe one of him in a bath
tub with faucets shaped like lion heads.
He ought to be seen on horseback, a hat
and a pigeon on his head. There ought
to be a government office building
named for him, a traffic circle, too, and
every year schools would acknowledge
Levitt by taking their students on a
field trip to a shopping mall.
Barring a successful appeal, Jeffrey
Levitt will soon report to jail, a martyr
to U.S. values run amock. He is to
spending what Paul Bunyan is to log
ging and someday all Americans will
honor his birthday. In its characteristic
way, Washington already does. Here,
every day is Jeffrey Levitt Day.
