Smith said white males arc re
sponsible for most of the hiring and
decision-making at UNL and other
institutions.
Col leges and universities through
out the country must generate oppor
tunities for qualified minority stu
dents to attend college, he said.
“It’s a national problem,” he
said, “not just a UNL problem.”
Smith said UNL should start a
network with the government and
private corporations to develop a
comprehensive strategy to recruit
qualified minority students.
Some existing resources that
could provide funding include the
U.S. Department of Education, the
Ford Foundation and the W.K. Kel
logg Foundation, he said.
Smith said he thinks UNL, as a
land-grant institution, needs to be in
greater contact with minority youths
in the Lincoln school system.
If minority students in Lincoln
know that UNL is concerned about
them and is willing to promote and
work for cultural diversity, more
minority students would include
higher education in their futures.
Until UNL hires and promotes
based on cultural diversity. Smith
said, the university will have prob
lems attracting minority students and
faculty.
“Intelligence is not a matter of
race,’’ Smith said. “It is a matter of
support and circumstance.”
MINORITY from Page 1
received a minority student recruit
ing plan, which was developed by the
pre-admissions office.
The plan targets different minori
ties throughout the state and explores
ways of reaching them, Johnson said.
Top UNL administrators have
become more aware of the need for
minority representation and they
have hired more minorities in the last
year for faculty and staff positions,
Johnson said.
College deans, UNL Chancellor
Martin Massengale and Vice Chan
cellor for Student Affairs James Grie
sen want to hire more minorities and
women for top administrative posi
tions, Johnson said.
‘ ‘I am aware that pressure is being
exerted for women and minorities to
be considered strongly for such posi
tions,” including the position of NU
President, Johnson said.
The 1988 retreat has affected fac
ulty members also, according to Jim
McShane, Faculty Senate president
The retreat, and the recent Faculty
Senate retreat "heightened con
sciousness” of minority issues,
McShane said. When such issues
show up on the agenda, they receivea
higher priority because of the in
creased awareness, he said.
‘ ‘It provoked me to do what had to
be done, but hadn’t," McShane said.
The Faculty Senate has taken steps
to revive the Human Rights Commit
tee at UNL, which should be decided
on this semester.
An ethics statement also is cur
rently under consideration by the
Professional Conduct Committee.
The ethics statement would say that it
is unethical for a faculty member to
judge a student’s academic work on
the grounds of race and sex, he said.
The statement would spell out
recourses minority students could
take if they are discriminated against
academically, he said.
Faculty found guilty of such dis
crimination could face punishments
ranging from reprimands to dis
missal, McShane said.
