CLAUSE from Page 1
Jerry Roemer, speaker of the ASL'N
Senate, admitted that some religious
groups object to the "creed" portion of
the clause, but he said he thinks these
groups are expressing an "unjustified
concern." Roemer said he doubts anyone
would join an organization If he did not
share its interests or beliefs.
The Great Commission Students, a
campus religious group, has enlisted
the services of a Kansas City lawyer to
assist in obtaining an exemption from
the creed portion of the non-discrimination
clause that ASUN requires
all recognized student groups have in
their constitutions.
Dave Dickmann, pastor of the Great
Commission Church, said the lawyer
will send a letter to ASUN citing exist
ing legal precedents that support the
right of religious groups to discrimi
nate on the basis of creed.
Dickmann said the Great Commis
sion Students submitted a constitution
to ASUiN that included the clause, but
it was rejected because membership in
the group was dependent upon a state
ment of faith.
Joanie Eickoff, ASUN's special top
ics chairwoman, said an exemption
already exists for residence halls on

the basis of place of residence and
ASIN and their lawyers are now explor
ing the possibility of an exemption for
religious groups on the basis of creed.
However, she added the group probably
would not be allowed an exemption.
Not only religious organizations are
having difficulty with the clause. Roe
mer said the percentage of religious
groups in compliance with constitu
tional requirements is slightly higher
than the percentage of all student
organizations.
Many "inactive" groups simply have
failed to submit updated constitutions,
Roemer said. Officer turnover has been
a problem and new officers in some
organizations have not received ASUN
mailings regarding constitutional re
form. On Thursday, Eickoff met individu
ally with organizations that have not
complied with constitutional require
ments. Another meeting is scheduled
for today. The special meetings are
designed to help groups formulate
acceptable constitutions so that they
may regain "active" status.
While student organizations continue
to have problems revising their consti
tutions, the former chairwoman of EOC
said she hopes the revised constitu
tions will begin meeting their original
purpose making student organiza
tions more accurately reflect the com
position of UNL students primarily
ASL'N.
Mary Marcy said the EOC had com
piled statistics showing that ASl'N's
elected and appointed positions were
held primarily by white male Greeks.
Instead of confronting ASUN directly
with this Information, which Marcy
said would be "politically suicidal,"
the EOC initiated a reform strategy to
include all student organizations along
with ASl'N in their non-discrimination
proposals. Marcy said that increasing
the scope of their legislation to include
all student organizations, the EOC had
hoped to snare the real culprit: ASUN.
Roemer said no legislation indicates
that ASUN was the main target for the
non-discrimiation clause, but because
ASUN is a student organization it must
also meet the revision requirements.
Marcy said ASUN has "a moral obli
gation to clean up their own act before
they go after others." If ASUN becomes
more representative, other groups are
likely to follow.
Roemer said ASUN is making pro
gress. He said ASUN has expanded its
pool of applicants for governmental
positions by increasing its mailings
across campus.
He said he hopes that measures such
as this one will make ASUN more
representative.
However, some people think this
move is not enough. CAP activities
coordinator Kathy Shellogg said ASUN
has "turned the non-discrimination
bill outward," neglecting its original
intent. The clause has turned into a
"meaningless statement for groups,
simply a gesture," she said.
Despite the barrage of claims and
counterclaims, most people who have
considered the non-discrimination
clause remain optimistic.
Marcy admits the proposal may have
been idealistic, but she still says she
thinks the realization of its purpose is
not far away.
