Students can still apply for GSL
Summer school students who forgot to apply
for financial aid before an early March 3 deadline
still can apply for Guaranteed Student Loans,
said Peggy West, assistant director of student
employment in UNL's Scholarships and Finan
cial Aid office.
Students had to apply for most forms of finan
cial aid and send in a 1986-87 Financial Aid Form
before March 3, West said.
A March 14 Daily Nebraskan article incor
rectly stated that students had until March 3 1 to
file a financial aid form. The UNL financial aids
office must receive processed forms by March 31,
so the forms had to be filed by March 3 to allow
for the one-month form processing time. The
earlier forms were sent, the faster they can be
processed, West said.
Students still can apply for a GSL if they:
0 Decide which classes to take and in which
session to take them. UNL's eight-week summer
session runs from May 19 to July 1 1, with the first
five-week session scheduled for June 9 to July 1 1
and the second five-week session for July 14 to
Aug. 15. Students who take classes only in the
pre-session May 19 to June 6 are ineligible for
GSLs, West said.
O Complete summer aid application by March
31 to be considered for other forms of aid besides
GSLs.
O Apply for GSLs by May 15 if they plan to
take classes during the pre-session, eight-week
session or first five-week session.
O Apply for GSLs by July 1 if they plan to
take classes during the pre-session, eight-week
session or first five-week session.
O Apply for GSLs by July 1 if they plan to
take classes during the first and second five
week sessions or the second session only.
Students must actually be attending summer
classes to receive a GSL, West said. Those who
apply early will receive their loans early in the
session they attend, she said, while those who
apply later will have to wait longer until the end
of the session they are attending.
Early registration packets for the summer
sessions and the fall semester are available at
the Nebraska Union and East Union information
desks and at Administration Building Window 5.
Students can pick up GSL forms in Administra
tion 113.

Parties should clean up campaign literature
Now that the ASUN election is over, one ques- cleaning up the mess that its members indi-

GOODMAN from Page 4
Once, in the real life of this Patti Davis she
finished speaking at an anti-nuclear rally
only to be asked what her father thought of
her position. "That was the point I realized I
was in a no-win situation," she says.
This was an attempt to write her own story,
to control it, but it didn't work. Even Patti's
prime time in the media spotlight is played
out in her father's shadow. I don't know when
Patti Davis will shake free of being the Presi
dent's daughter, but I have a good guess.

status distorted
Students told the ASUN Electoral Commis
sion Monday that a Party party executive candi
date approached students and encouraged them
to incorrectly identify themselves as American
Indians.
"There has been a gross violation under the
rules of the ASUN Electoral Commission section
D.2a.i.i. in that Steve Henning, Party party first
vice presidential candidate approached Judy
Kawamoto presidential candidate approached
Judy Kawamoto to falsify her identity to Indian
in the election," said Antonio Laravie and Adrian
Casillas in a prepared statement presented to
the commission. Henning also told Mary Marcy
that he was instructing voters to falsify their
identity as Indian, according to the statement.
An ASUN demographic survey conducted
March 12 shows that 138 voters registered as
Indian students. However, only 60 Indian stu
dents are registered at UNL.
Greg Smith, electoral commission director,
said he has asked ASUN President Gerard Keat
ing to bring the executive candidates from Party
party to the ASUN student court for prosecution.
"The electoral commission is embarassed by
the racial insensitivity demonstrated on the
demographic section of the ballot in the recent
ASUN election," Smith said.
Henning could not be reached for comment.
Survey: Public teacher morale
exceeds the national norm
By Andy Pollock
Staff Reporter
Teachers in Nebraska elementary and secon
dary schools are satisfied with their jobs, accord
ing to a study conducted by a UNL professor.
Al Kilgore, associate professor of Curriculum
and Instruction, said that school administrators
were concerned that teacher morale might be
low for many reasons. Administrators feared that
reports like one by the Governor's Task Force on
Education, which painted a dark picture of edu
cation, might lower teacher morale, Kilgore said.
Instead, a random sampling of teachers from
seven Nebraska school districts indicates morale
exceeded the administrators' expectations and
the national norm.
The 100-question survey measured teachers'
attitudes on their relationships with administra
tors, students, other teachers and the communi
ties where they work. It also studied their feel
ings about their working facilities and salaries.
Kilgore said that the only areas teachers
responded negatively were their status in the
community and their salaries.
He said that most people who go into teaching
realize that their pay will not likely be as good as
that from other professions.
Dr. James O'Hanlon, dean of the Teachers
College, said that salaries are improving for
teachers. He said some schools are offering 12
month, rather than nine month work plans.
These offer teaching opportunities for better
salaries.
O'Hanlon said although it is difficult to
directly improve community support for teachers,
a committee of Nebraska citizens offers ideas to
students to prepare for community service.
The Teachers College now makes sure that
students have opportunities to become involved
in the community before they start their careers,
he said.
O'Hanlon said the results of the survey will
encourage students who plan to teach, but that
the results will probably not affect their deci
sions about their future.
"People who select teaching as a career are
very often people who have been encouraged to
go into teaching by a teacher before college," he
said.
He said that because teacher morale is good,
teachers are more likely to encourage interested
students to go into teaching.
Kilgore said that more teaching jobs will
become available in the near future. Already
early elementary classes are growing as result of
a baby boom, he said.
Larger cities, especially on the coasts, are
recruiting many teachers from the midwestern
United States, O'Hanlon said. He said that, since
enrollment in elementary and secondary schools
here is now increasing, local recruiting will
increase.
