Conditional aid bill introduced AID From Pagel year nationwide may be affected by the bill, if implemented. The bill contains a five-year phase-in period. Lalonde said the bill’s sponsors would not attempt to “completely eradicate” other grant or loan pro grams, but eventually would expect most young people to join the civilian or military volunteer program. Lalonde would not predict the likelihood of the bill’s passage, and said its sponsors may have to make some compromises in order to make the bill more passable. She said Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell was voicing strong support for the bill by listing it in his opening speeches to Congress. President George Bush would have difficulty vetoing the bill based on his stand on community service, according to Lalonde. She said that the president’s promotion of civic involvement had not been a factor in the council's Vision to draft the bill. The bin ls'Cttntniiy in the Labor, Health and Human Resources com mittee, and mhy have to pass through as many as three more committees and subcommittees before arriving on the Senate floor for a vote, accord ing to Laura Bowen, a correspondent for Nunn. Larry Apel, associate director of Scholarships and Financial Aid, said he had ‘no idea on the number of studen' ,vho would be affected by the bill until we d actually read the bill and see what it entailed.” At the University of Ncbraska Lincoln, about 10,000 students re ceived $9 million in grants and an other 10,000 received nearly $14 million in loans during the past year, according to the Office of Scholar ships and Financial Aid. Col. Charles Barnett, chairman of the UNL Department of Naval Sci ence, said he did not expect the bill to have much impact on the university’s ROTC program. He said that ROTC was designed for people who want to become military officers after gradu ation. “I can’t say what impact it would have on the current GI bill,” Barnett said. Wrexie Again, a legislative assis tant for Rep. Doug Bcrcuter, R-Ncb., said the congressman “will be look ing at it and reviewing it very care fully.” The assistant was unable to offer a current stand for Bcrcuter on the bill. Robin Henderson, a legislative assistant for Sen. James Exon, D Neb., said that they “really haven’t looked at it yet.” She acknowledged that the bill proposed ‘ ‘quite a differ ent twist” from past financial aid programs. Hunt questions necessity of files ASUN From Page 1 i ing & Technology said many profes sors and colleges already offer their previous tests to students, making an all-university test file unnecessary. “If they have test files made, they let students know it,** Hunt said. “You don’t have to be a member of a greek house” to use most test files. Graduate Sen. Kevin Williams, who supported the bill, said a test file would greatly benefit students. “The library is here to provide students with resources,” Williams said. ”If a test file helps increase resources, then I’m all for it.” -—-——-1 Crompton calls for continued support of gay rights battle By Jana Pedersen Staff Reporter As part of gay and lesbian pride week, former UNL English profes sor Louis Crompton called for continued support of the gay civil rights battle Wednesday night About 25 people attended the presentation, sponsored by the Committee Offering Lesbian and Gay Events. Crompton said the past two decades have been an era of major change toward increased civil rights for homosexuals, but the United States has not been a leader in the area. “A country that at its founding claimed liberty and justice for all has fallen behind the rest of the West in promoting civil rights for lesbians and gay men,” he said. The biggest blow to the gay civil rights battle in the United States was the 1986 Supreme ' Court ruling that confirmed the legality of state sodomy laws, Crompton said. He compared anti-sodomy laws to anti-witchcraft laws which pro voked the Salem, Mass., witch scare in the 18th century. As late as 1780, he said, gay men were still being executed in the United States for sodomous acts. But the anti-witchcraft laws have been repealed, he said, while anti-sodomy laws have been re pealed in only half of the stales. The AIDS scare has also con tributed greatly to discrimination against homosexuals in the United States, Crompton said. But national laws prohibiting discrimination against AIDS vic tims are a step in the right direc tion, he said. Internationally, the Nether lands has become the world leader in promoting gay and lesbian civil rights, Crompton said, while other Western European countries are close behind. “We’ve come a long way, but we still have a long way to go,’ ’ he said. “In the end we hope that liberty and justice will prevail.” FOR SALE 77 rad.
