Friday, January 31, 1986 Daily Nebraskan Pag i i ror mat? By James M. Liilis Staff Reporter The Health for All-All for Health fund-raiser isn't scheduled until March, but money to cover the $60,000 event is being raised now. UNL students are soliciting local businesses, the public, university faculty members and stu dents and corporate Wellness Councils nation wide, said Alan Sands, the event's organizer. The program will feature local and national celebrities who will present health information through sports clinics, games and acts. "This isn't a health fair," he said. "It's an extravaganza." Some of the celebrities include Lou Gold stein, comediansportscaster, and Ellen Rosen burg, author and teacher. These celebrities will emphasize mental, physical and emotional self-development, Sands said. "Thirty percent of the money raised by all functions will go back to the organizations that raised them," Sands said. "Any profits made will go toward charity." Four charities will be represented: Scholar ships and Financial Aid, the League of Human Dignity, the Lincoln Fellowship of Churches and the Lancaster Chapter uf the American Red Cross. "If up to $100,000 is raised, 20 percent of the profit will be donated, or 5 percent per charity," Sands said. "If $60,000 or more is raised, it will be a 40 percent donation, or 10 percent per charity." Sands said that if the necessary money isn't raised, the only options he has are to take out certain parts of the event or to cane?! the event and return all the money. Tickets for the Health for All-All for Health fund-raiser will be sold at the Bob Devaney Sports Center, the Nebraska and East unions and at various health clubs sometime after March 15. Admission will be $7.50 for single tickets, $12 a couple and $15 a family. St udent tickets will be $5. "We plan to offer reduced ticket prices based on economic needs," Sands said, "especially in order to encourage the physically and mentally disabled to participate." For more information on the event, call 473 7939 during business hours. PROTEST from Page 1 Gary Longsine, one of the students who formed the Students Against the Lied Center group, said the protest took place to "spark public debate" about the center. Preventing construction of the center is not one of the group's goals, he said. "Stopping the Lied Center is academic at this point," he said. "It's not going to happen." What the group does disagree with, Longsine said, is the lack of appropriation of state funds and grants to areas of the university that really need it. "I have said I would be in support of the Lied Center if other (university) programs weren't suffering." Longsine cited teacher salaries and the reduced business hours at Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery and Morrill Hall as ailing programs. He said the university should try to negotiate with the people who offer NU financial gifts which must be spent under certain conditions. If the university does not need what the donor is offering to pay for, Longsine said, the university should suggest that the money be given to a program that needs it. Although construction on the project will con tinue, Longsine said people need to stay informed on the opposing points of the Lied issue. "We realize the money (donations, state aid) is already spent," Longsine said, "we just want people to think about it (similar projects) in the future." Brad Katz, a member of the Lied Center Stu dent Advisory Committee, said his group staged their protest "to make the facts known about the Lied Center." He said an open forum about the Lied Center is planned for sometime in the next few weeks. Ron Bowlin, director of Kimball Hall may speak at the forum, Katz said. "Once the facts are known (about the Lied Center) the opposition will decrease," Katz said, t Money spent on the Lied Center is not wasted, said Adrian Casillas, another advisory commit tee member. "The Lied Center will pay for itself in the long run," he said. David Dean, one of the pro-Lied students who arrived with the group of fine arts students, said their group was demonstrating "to stand up for the arts in general." Chris Kohtz, a pro-Lied music major said the Students Against the Lied Center were protest ing the wrong issue. Rather than blame the Lied project on the lack of money for other programs at the university, the anti-Lied group should complain specifically about issues such as the reduced operating hours at Sheldon. College class tours offered Studying marine life near the Virgin Islands or touring a center for interior design in Dallas believe it or not, these are two ways of "going to class" at UNL. The Flights and Study Tours programs, spon sored by the International Educational Services office, give students an opportunity to combine classroom work with real-world work, said Christa Joy, program coordinator. Although credit is offered for some of the tours, it is optional. Most tour groups stay in "budget-class" hous ing, but the accomodations are near interesting and important sites, Joy said. A Dallas trip in March will let people study the history, methods and techniques of interior design. Planned by UNL's department of tex tiles, clothing and design, the trip costs $400 to $450 and is worth one credit hour. A similar Dallas trip in May, focusing on the apparel industry, is offered at the same cost for two credit hours. Tours of art museums and the world market center for interior design are scheduled. Paul Johnsgard, UNL foundation professor of biological sciences, will direct a tour to southern England in May. The group will visit several English gardens and Oxford University and will travel along the coast of Devon. The cost of the trip is $1,825 to $1,875, but no credit is offered. The accounting department will sponsor a tour to New Zealand in May for a cost of $2,000, pius three credit hours. The group will visit several accounting firms and spend time at Mas sey University. A summer workshop in the Virgin Islands will be offered for $1,100 to $1,200 with an option of one or two credits. Sponsored by the UNL Center for Science, Mathematics and Computer Educa tion, the group will study flora, fauna and marine life on the St. John and St. Thomas islands.
