I Ag jobs are on the nse
By Dorothy Pritchard
Senior Reporter
A study predicting 48,000 new
jobs in agriculture over the next five
years is a “conservative estimate,”
and while enrollment is down, agri
culture students at the University of
Nebraska-Lincoln are earning de
grees in sync with that job market,
said College of Agriculture Dean
T.E. Hartung.
Hartung said he has seen a general
trend in the last few years of more
UNL agriculture students majoring in
agricultural business and support
services or food processing and tech
nology instead of actual production.
t he study by the U.S. Department
of Agriculture compared data from
the departments of labor, education
and agriculture with the numbers of
students graduating from agriculture
colleges across the nation. The study
came up with too few graduates to fill
these new jobs.
But Hartung said the study pro
jected a steady enrollment in agricul
ture colleges, when actually enroll
ment is decreasing. That means an
even wider gap between the number
of jobs and the number of people to
fill them, he said.
According to the study, 32 percent
of the jobs will be in marketing,
merchandising and sales. Another 29
percent will be for engineers, scien
tists and related specialists. Only
about 10 percent will be in actual
production on farms and fcedlots.
Bill Todd, data base manager at
UNL’s Institutional Research and
Planning Office, said although over
all enrollment in the agriculture col
lege is down, the food science depart
ment has remained steady over the
last five years in the total number of
iii1 ... . ■■
credit hours students have enrolled in.
The number of credit hours in
agriculture education has increased
from 583 credits to 972, but Todd
noted that the number of students in
ag education is relatively small to
begin with. All other departments in
the ag college have shown a decline.
Some agriculture-related student
groups are showing increased enroll
ment.
Teri Hoelting, the president of the
food science and technology club,
said the group’s membership has
doubled since last year. Although
most students in the club are from
rural areas, Hoelting said, the group is
attracting more members from urban
areas.
Bruce Wichman, president of the
ag economics/agribusiness club, said
he has also noticed an increased en
rollment. Wichman said the students
in the group are mostly from the farm
and would like to return, but are more
business conscious now.
“A lot of people really want to go
back to the farm, but you really have
to look closely at it,” said Wichman,
an ag economics major. “You have to
weigh the pros and cons.”
Hartung said a “general image of
pessimism” surrounds the farm econ
omy and is one of the reasons fewer
students arc interested in ag-produc
lion and arc more interested in ag
related fields such as agribusiness or
food technology that present better
job opportunities.
But Hartung said he doesn’t ex
pect a shortage of qualified people to
work on farms. Opportunities to buy
land or to return to the family farm
will always be around, he said.
“I think that will pretty much take
care of itself,” he said.

Parking changes noted
Parking on bast Campus has been
changed Wednesday to accommodate
guests at the Institute of Agriculture
and Natural Resources open house.
The East Campus loop has been
converted to a one-way drive with
guest parking on both sides. Parking
on the drive begins just south of the
C.Y. Thompson Library on the south
side of campus and continues to the
Game and Parks Commission build
ing. Guests can also park on 38th
Street between the loop and Hunting
ton Avenue.
Guests are asked to not use the
parking lots that are restricted to stu
dents, faculty and staff.
Once guests have parked, they
should go to the nearest open house
shuttle stop. The shuttle will take
guests to the East Union. Shuttles will
run about 15 minutes apart. Shutt^
stops are marked with signs.

sad. However, the extra costs of
litter pick-up and hauling garbage
were worked into the contract with
Burger King, he said.
The city dump started charging
people who use the dump last yea,
Kuhn said. The charge is based on
how much garbage is dumped. Last
yea, the city dump charged the
Nebraska Union $6,500 and the
East Union $4,400. Kuhn said he
expects these figures to be about
the same for this yea.
The Nebraska Union had an
incinerator for burning garbage,
but it was removed when it broke
(town last yea. The union won’t be
getting another incinerator be
cause of concern about air pollu
tion, Kuhn said. The incinerator
was in the garbage room on the first
floor of the union, which leads out
to the gabage loading docks. The
garbage room now is mostly full of
UUACS.
Used grease is emptied into the
dumpster on the loading docks east
of the Nebraska union. The
dumpster is owned by Norris Ren
dering, which periodically picks
up the grease. The used grease is
recycled and used in hog and live
stock feed, said Ken Brewer,
grease manager for Norris Render
ing. Brewer said his companypicks
up about 500,000 pounds of used
grease every month from a three
state area. Kuhn said the union gets
about $10 a month for the used
grease.
Grounds personnel spent more
time picking up during FartnAidHI
than during a home football game,
Dasenbrock said.
Dasenbrock said the depart
ment didn’t let the conceit get lit
tered more than a football game.
“We had a crew on duty cleaning
from Friday night until Sunday
morning,” he said.
