For their final, students decided on a product they thought would appeal to the investors. The goal was to generate enough interest to actually get business people to invest in the products, Bailey said. A panel of three volunteers and Bailey decided the fate of the stu dents' business ventures. Each investor had a hypothetical $500,000 to invest. The RBR Management group, con sisting of senior business majors Jordon Brasch, Robert Rentfro, and Todd Rivers, proposed a real-estate development plan that would con vert a 13-st ory historical building on 16th and Jackson Streets in Omaha into condominiums. The group said it needed $1 million. Investors gave the group $1.5 million. Mixers and Pourers, Inc. proposed a professional bartending and social cat ering service. This service, which would start in Denver and then franchise, would provide liquor cat ering to parties and social or politi cal functions just like a food cater ing sen ice, said Cary Deschene, the senior business administrat ion major who presented the project. Deschene said he actually plans to pursue the project when he grad uates. "We'll be seeking financing within the next year," he said. "I really see a void in the market for this kind of service. I think it will do well." Mixers and Pourers, Inc. asked for $825,000, but received only $300,000. A third group wanted to re-open Omaha's Falstaff brewery and brew a new brand of beer called Peter MacFarlaan's "Peter Mac's " Pale Ale. Brad Keester, the group's spo kesman and a senior business major, said he thinks the product would be marketable if the company could get people to forget about Falstaff. The group requested $500,000, but investors gave them nothing. Even though a person may not do as well as another, the experience is invaluable, panelists said. Dave Roeher, a 1978 UNL gradu ate who now works as a certified accountant and a tax manager, com mended t he class's hands-on expe rience. "I wish they would have done something like this when I was in school," he said. Pete Allman, a 1979 UNL gradu ate who now is sales and service manager of his family business said: "This project gives you fantas tic, practical experience. More clas ses should be done like this." John Dittman, a 1984 UNL gradu ate who now works as credit depart ment manager for Cornhusker Bank, said it's a "real" world experience! "You get an opportunity to inter act with people in the business world; it's not pure theory," he said. "The students prepared excellent examples, and I am amazed at the work put into them." The presentations were similar to what actually happens in the invest ment world, Dittman said. Bailey said he hopes the projects encourage new businesses to start in the state to offset the failing agricultural economy. He said Nebraska's start-up rate for new businesses is only half the national average. "We have to keep trying new businesses to try and make them stick." More business proposals will be presented today. ml i EGG ICADDAFI T-SHIRTS i 4-color screen print available on silver grey T-Shirts -Adult S,M,LXL Supply Limited Send $10.00 Tax to I Egg Kaddafi T-Shirts l P.O. Box 83430 Lincoln, NE 68502 ASUN senators pass farm foreclosure bill By Eric Paulak Staff Reporter 1 The ASUN senate passed a bill Wed nesday requesting the Legislature to extend the time allotted to farmers during a foreclosure. If the Legislature passed such legis lation it would not forgive any portion of t he debt, but would allow only for an extension of the payment period. Doug Weems of the College of Arts and Sciences said if the bill passed, farmers could have up to two years to settle a foreclosure with their bank. Weems said the Legislature passed similar legislation to the one requested for Nebraska banks. Because of that legislation, up to 35 banks have been saved from being foreclosed upon, he said. David Fiske, graduate college sena tor, was against the bill. "In the Seventies, we had an over capitalization of agriculture. We are now trying to fix that," he said. Tim Howard, graduate college sena tor, said banks would not be hurt by the legislation. If a bank's survival depen ded upon one foreclosure, the farm would have to pay it as soon as possi ble, he said. Most banks lose money on foreclo sures, Howard said. The banks would be better off if they would get their money after a definite period of time set by a court, he said. If the Legislature continues to allow banks to foreclose on farms, the farmers will be forced into the cities and Nebraska could be turned into a wel fare state, said Ed Miller, graduate col lege senator. According to the legislation's word ing, the law would be unconstitutional unless there were a farm crisis, Weems said. Nebraska is in the middle of a farm crisis now, he said. 2 UNL students win video awards Two UNL students took top honors at the Lincoln International Television Association-Student Video Competit ion recently.
