ASUN asks
for 5 more
in 1987-88
By Rob Fraass
Staff Reporter
ASUN requested $102,251 for
its 1987-88 budget at a Commit
tee for Fees Allocation hearing
Tuesday.
The proposed budget, which
was presented by ASUN Presi
dent Chris Scudder, calls for a 5
percent increase over the 1986
87 projected annual budget of
$95,805.
"I believe this is a reasonable
budget," Scudder told the com
mittee. "I believe this is what we
need, and I think the chancellor
will approve it."
The proposed budget includes:
0$1 1,958 for operating ex
penses; O $24,382 for ASUN support
staff;
O$5,490 for the electoral
commission;
0$1,164 for the Government
Liaison Committee;
O $50,358 for Student Legal
Services;
$8,899 for the UNL Informa
tion Center.
Most of the proposed increase,
$2,980 above the 1986-87 pro
jected budget, would go toward
salaries in Student Legal Servi
ces, according to the budget
report. The director and secre
tary's salaries would be a com
bined $1,659 higher. ASUN wants
the service's part-time attorney
to work two extra weeks a year
and earn $1,063 more.
The increase is needed partly
to handle the increase in use of
the legal services, Scudder said.
"Student use has gone up 34
percent and that's phenomenal,"
Scudder said.
Some portions of the budget
will decrease, according to the
budget report. The UNL Informa
tion Center's budget has a pro
posed cut of $600.
State senators say
students can have
impact on politics

But Pollock said too few students
are educated about what's going on in
the State Capitol, so GLC tries to
inform them on the issues affecting
them, he said.
Tim Geisert, ASUN second vice
president, said that when it comes to
lobbying senators, having many students
is not as important as having educated
students who can give details on the
impact of senators' decisions.
Geisert's view echoes the words of
two state senators. Lincoln Sens. Jim
McFarland and Bill Harris said during a
hearing last week that they would
prefer that students inform their
senators through letters, phone calls or
personal appearances, rather than with
rallies.
"If 10 people from each district
approach their senators, they would
have an impact," Harris said.
Students need to follow legislation,
not just the university's budget prob
lems, but other bills as well, said
Stromsburg Sen. Scott Moore. He said
even bills like LB151, which would
allow landowners to sell their ground
water, may have an impact on their
lives down the road.
"Will there be water left for them 50
years from now?" said Moore, 26. "These
young people have to live with the
bills."
Student involvement in government
can broaden their horizons, former
interns, pages and others said.
"The amount of things I learned
from the floor debate (in the Unicam
eral) are immense," Tim Erickson said
of his year's work as a page in the
Legislature in 1983. Erickson, a 1985
UNL graduate in speech communi
cations, is now Moore's aide.

center was tacked onto the practice
field to pacify the students more than
anything else, he said.
According to DN clips one Campus
Recreation Advisory Council member
said in 1981 that student apathy would
kill the rec center.
But somehow, despite a lack of
widespread active support, the spirit of
the rec center survived.

support for the center is uncertain.
Last spring, ASUN Sen. Pete Castel
lano sponsored a bill to collect money
for the rec center from a 50-cent sur
charge on all home athletic events.
Officials now are considering a $5
surcharge on non-student and non
faculty football tickets and a $;35-a-year
increase in student fees for center
maintenance.
The NU Foundation is continuing its
search for donations, and a donation to
the recreation center is among sugges
tions for the senior gift.
