Senator says education
will decide U.S. future
By Shawn Hubbell
Staff Reporter _
America’s success in the world community
depends on the quality of education in
America’s schools and colleges, U.S. Sen.
David Karnes said Friday during a speech at the
University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
Speaking before a crowd of about 100
people, Karnes said education is one of the most
critical issues facing America today. He said
he’s concerned about America’s competitive
position in the world market as it relates to the
skills American educational system is teach
ing.
In a society where technology is rapidly
advancing, Karnes said, educational institu
tions must recalculate their curricula.
how can we expect our students to be
competitive if our best educational resources
are not available to them?” Karnes said.
Karnes also expressed concern for the drop
out rate among students in U.S. high schools.
Karnes cited a report that indicated the high
school dropout rate is between 17 and 23 per
cent. The lack of opportunities and enthusiasm
in some schools contributes to the staggering
number of dropouts, he said.
Karnes authorized grants last year for a
program to help high school dropouts complete
their education.
Equally important, Karnes said, is support
for an educational savings plan act. He said the
act would allow parents to save for their
children’s higher education by purchasing tax
free U.S. savings bonds'.
Karnes said he supports President Reagan’s
educational plan, which includes a 9 percent
increase in funds for elementary and vocational
schools, a 10 percent increase in funds for
student loans and a 14 percent increase in funds
for Pell Grants.
'How can we expect our
students to be competi
tive it our best educa
tional resources are not
available to them.'
—Karnes
Karnes said he plans to introduce a plan to
alleviate teacher shortages in depressed areas
of the country and in critical areas of learning
such as math and science. If enacted, he said,
his plan would forgive education majors of
their student loans if they agree to teach critical
subjects or work in financially depressed areas
upon receiving their degrees.
Karnes said he supports the formation of a
venture capital fund in the United States and
would like to see about $40 billion directed
toward school reorganization, research and the
development of new types of educational pro
grams.

Gov. Kay Orr and two Nebraska senators
will be commended for theireffortson behalf of
the university Tuesday at the University of
Nebraska-Lincoln Faculty Senate meeting.
Robert Diffendal, secretary of the Faculty
Senate, said the senate wishes to thank Orr, Sen.
David Landis of Lincoln and Sen. Jerome
Warner of Waverly for their support of im
proved salaries and their overall help for the
university.
Orr and the senators also are scheduled to
speak at the meeting.
The possible endorsement of the Promotion
and Tenure Document is also on the agenda.
The document, proposed at the beginning of
the year, was originated by the committee. The
document will give guidelines for evaluations,
promotions and tenure of faculty members.
“This has been worked on all year long, and
everybody has made their changes,” Diffendal
said. “Hopefully it will be endorsed on Tues
day.”
City Campus colleges have never had for
mal guidelines for annual evaluation and tenure
policies, Diffendal said.
