Although making headlines was not the intent of ASUN, Keating said, ASUN became one of the more visible campus organizations during 1985. "I think this year (1985) has opened up a new era," Keating said. "There is so much students can do. I hope people will see that and work toward develop ing things we've done this year." When Keating and ASUN executives Rod Penner and Jeff Fishback an nounced their candidacy under the Target name in 1985, improving faculty advising was one of their campaign goals. And according to Rudy Lewis, vice chancellor of student affairs, Keat ing's administration reached its goal. Keating said during his term as ASUN president he has learned "ad ministrators want the student voice." "It gives them ideas and views from a different perspective," Keating said. Lewis said he hopes to build upon the already established relationship with ASUN. "I also want to maintain a sense of continuity through the transition," he said. The next ASUN administration will be elected March 13 and will take office soon after. Bridging gaps between residence halls and Greek houses was yet another area that concerned the Target party.

The govern ment hopes to find men who failed to register for the draft, Selective Service officials in Washington, D.C., said. Current federal law requires men to register with the Selective Service within a month of their 18th birthday. Failure to register is a felony, and car ries a maximum prison sentence of up to five years andor a $250,000 fine. Don Aripoli, director of scholarships and financial aid at UNL, said this is the latest in a series of moves to enforce the Solomon Act of 1982, a law which prevents students who have failed to register with the Selective Service from receiving federal student aid. According to a Department of Edu cation study, about 98 percent of the U.S. male population in the draft-age group, or 15 million men, have regis tered with the Selective Service since it was started by President Carter in 1980. The Selective Service estimates that 400,000 non-registrants are still among the 18-to 25-year potential draf tees. In Nebraska, about 106,000 men have registered with the Service. Aripoli said he wasn't aware of any student failure to comply with the law because Nebraska, as well as every other college or university, requires its students to sign an affidavit stating compliance with the federal law when they apply for federal student aid. Aripoli said the inclusion of affidavit certifications has been required for UNL federal student aid applicants since July 1, 1983. The mandatory com pliance date was October 1983. In addition to the federally funded Pell Grant Program, the Selective Ser vice will also use lists compiled from programs such as Social Security, driv er's license bureau, Guaranteed Stu dent Loans, Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants, Plus Loans, Alas Loans, College Work Study, National Direct Student Loans and State Stu dent Incentive Grants.
