said the existence of a gaylesbian
programming committee would "pre

Council proposal to form a gaylesbian
programming committee under UPC.
"I can see that there is a need on
this campus for (gaylesbian) program
ming," Union Board member Bruce
Lear said.
Board member Wade Clement said
he thinks it is important that informa
tion representative of what goes on in
the gaylesbian culture be made avail
able to the public.
The Union Board approved the pro
posal in a secret ballot after holding an
open forum.
UPC will now formulate the gayles
bian programming committee's budget
on a program-by-program basis and will
gramming be made a priority of an
existing UPC committee, such as UPC
Talks and Topics.
Lincoln psychologist Paul Cameron
disagreed with the Board decision.
Cameron, who spoke during the open
forum, said if Board members approve
the idea, they may be helping to kill
someone.
Cameron said that information he
had compiled indicates that there are
three to six homosexuals with AIDS on
campus and that 20 to 30 others are
probably carrying the virus.
"If you in any way make it easier for
these people to transmit this virus to
others ... to a degree, and I realize it

Cameron said.
UPC-City Council President Angela
Swantek said the gaylesbian program
ming could educate homosexuals and
others about AIDS and the homosexual
culture.
UNL student Tim Teebken, who spoke
against the idea, said he's talked to
Christian group leaders who said they
would encourage their constituents to
withdraw funding from UPC if the
proposal is passed. UPC gets $2.99 from
students willing to comply with the
Fund A requests, totaling about $123,000
each year. Paul Fenster, a Lincoln pas
toral counselor said gaylesbian pro
gramming would provide emotional
support for oppressed homosexuals.
If CFA passes the UPC budget the
proposal will be voted on by ASUN, and
must be approved by acting Vice Chan
cellor of Student Affairs James Griesen

said the committee might choose to
change the package dramatically before
it sends the cuts to the full Legislature
early next week.
All but $100,000 of NU's proposed
budget cuts are aimed at the universi
ty's general operations. The rest would
wipe out the money given UNMC to
start a bachelor's degree nursing pro
gram at West Nebraska General Hospi
tal in Scottsbluff. Kerrey vetoed the
$100,000 for the nursing program dur
ing the regular session, but the Legis
lature overrode his veto.
A similar budget-cutting special ses
sion last fall took 2 percent from NU's
general-fund budget, which left the
university with less money in the 1985
86 school year than it had in 1984-85.
NU also lost 3 percent of its previously
approved state support in 1981-82 and
