UNL gets clean record in crime report
By Amie DeFrain
Staff Reporter__
Beating its Big Eight confer
ence rivals with a totally “clean
record,” the University of Ne
braska-Lincoln campus reported
no incidents of violent crime in
1988, according to a FBI national
crime report released August 6.
“I was rather surprised,” said
UNL Police Chief Gale Gade, re
ferring to the results of the report.
“Other campuses had (re
ported incidents) of violent crimes,
and here, we come up with a clean
record,” he said.
As defined in the Justice Depart
ment Uniform Crime Report, violent
crimes include murder, rape, robbery
and aggravated assault.
Gale said there wasn’t one * ‘abso
lute reason” for the low number of
reported incidents at UNL. But he
credited the clean slate to the com
bined efforts of students, staff, visi
tors and all other people tied to the
university.
wc feel really good about the
fact that it turned out like that for
1988, whomever may be respon
sible," Gale said.
The year before, UNL had four
rapes reported and four aggra
vated assaults.
Gade said UNL also placed in
the top ten in a survey conducted
by the University of Washington
in Seattle.
Of the 22 universities that par
ticipated in the survey, Gade said,

Spire: Bodies often silent
for reputation protection
LETTER from Page 1
bodies must hold their discussions
and make their decisions in open fo
rum, there arc exceptions to that rule.
One of those exceptions is personnel
matters.
Spire said that sometimes public
bodies do not disclose reasons for
actions in personnel matters in order
to protect the reputations of the
people involved.
Meyer said the Roskcns decision
ceased to be a personnel mailer when
money came into the picture.
“There is a problem with the way
everyone is taking the interpretation
of open meeting laws,” he said.
“This failed to become a personnel
matter after they decided to retain or
fire Roskens. The salary is an appro
priations matter.”
Spire said he could not comment
specifically on the Roskens situation
because he did not have all the facts
surrounding the regents’ decision. He
said no state senators had asked him
for his opinion on the Roskens situ
ation.
Ln a letter concerning a closed
session held by the Department of
Health Certificate of Need Review
Committee, Spire wrote the Open
Meetings Law “is intended to be in
terpreted broadly.”
In the letter, written Feb. 13,19K7,
Spire wrote that state statutes and
“the history of open meetings law
nationally” calls for open govern
ment.
“Secrecy in government is devas
tating," Spire wrote. “It eliminates
accountability. And accountability is
fundamental to our governmental
system.”
