FOSSIL from Page 1
A grant from the National Science
Foundation made it possible for the
division of vertebrate paleontology
to move the fossils and to renovate
the research collection, Hunt said.
Renovation of the collection in
cludes upgrading records, improving
storage areas and applying preserva
tives to the fossils, Hunt said.
Unless preservative hardeners are
applied, fossils that have not been
mineralized will break apart, Hunt
said. He said older fossils usually
have enough minerals in them to pre
vent decaying, but newer fossils,
such as those from the Ice Age, will
decay.
Hugh Genoways, director of the
museum, said the move will help
preserve the fossils and make it easier
for scholars to study them.
He said some of the fossils have
been lost because their current stor
age is “not much different than if
they were stored outside.”
Hunt said the collection eventu
ally will be computerized so re
searchers nationwide will be able to
use it.

HIGHER ED from Page 1
Harold Enarson, a member ot the
LB247 consultant study team, ex
pressed disapproval of Miller’s sug
gestion. The move would “strip the
board of trustees of one of its most
fundamental powers,” Enarson said.
The committee recommended
empowering the new board of regents
effective July 1, 1991. Daryl Hall of
Kearney expressed concern about
making that recommendation now.
“If this is the answer to the higher
education question, it should be as
good six months from now as it is
today,” he said.
"If this is the an

State Sen. Ron Withem of Papil
lion said the committee really didn’t
have time to postpone an implemen
tation date for the interim board of
regents.
The proposal will go before the
Legislature in its January session. An
amendment to the Nebraska State
Constitution would be required to
change the current governance sys
tem.
“The constitutional amendment
needs to pass in the ’90 session,” said
W ithem, co-chairman of the commit
tee. 4 ‘Otherwise, the amendment will
have to wait until ’92.”
But W ithem said after the meeting
that he thinks the Legislature will
look at the proposal very seriously.
“1 think there’s going to be a lot of
support for it,” Withem said.
Congratulations!
