    Faculty backs senate restructuring
From Staff Reports
The University of Nebraska
Lincoln Faculty Senate announced
Tuesday that faculty members, in a
referendum by mail, overwhelm
ingly supported a restructuring
proposal.
Under the plan, the senate would
increase from 60 to 90 members
and would be renamed the Aca
demic Senate. A separate UNL
Assembly would consist of the
chancellor, five vice chancellors,
three deans and other faculty
members.
Senate representation would
include one representative for every
five or more faculty members in a
department. Currently, each sena
tor represents 25 faculty members
in one or more departments.
Faculty members approved the
proposal by a vote of 363-39 in the
referendum. The proposal still must
be approved by the NU Board of
Regents,
Faculty Senate President James
McShane said the proposed changes
would be effective in representing
UNL faculty members.
“It’s certainly worth a try,” he
said.

itself,” and all the information stu
dents need about OCR is provided in
one newsletter.
CFA member Brad Brunz said,
“Two thousand people coming through
the door is advertisement enough for
campus recreation.”
The committee will continue dis
cussion of the campus recreation budget
Thursday,after considering some line
items Tuesday.
The University Health Center also
submitted its 1990-91 budget request
Tuesday.
Kunle Ojikutu, director of the health
center, said UHC is requesting an
additional 58 cents per student per
semester for 1990-91, which would
bring its studentassessment to $66.30
per semester.
CFA will vote on the health center
request Thursday. The student unions
will present their 1990-91 budget
requests immediately following the
vote.
Recycle

place receptacles in Cather and Pound.
Keeshan said he would empty the
bins and keep 60 percent of the prof
its, giving the remaining 40 percent
to the residence halls.
Kristin Foster, Pound Hall presi
dent, said Cather/Pound officials
decided it would be easier and more
profitable for the halls to collect the
cans.
“We can do the same thing (that
Keeshan suggested),” Foster said.
“We have devised a plan that would
be much better and we would get 100
percent of the profits.”
Andy Williams, a Cather senator,
and Mike Lcupold, Cather/Pound/
Ncihardt director of maintenance,
devised the plan.
Williams said he marks the cans
according to which floor saved them,
then tells each floor’s treasurer how
much money was received for them.
The plan is unique, he said, be
cause the work going into it is done by
student volunteers.
“Right now it is in the experimen
tal stage,” Foster said. “We have
cans on certain floors with someone
watching them, and when it’s full,
they call Andy.”
Foster said bins have been in the
halls for about two weeks, but she
doesn’t know how many cans have
been collected.
The plan started with just one floor
in Gather participating and has grown
to six floors in Cather and Pound.
“I want to implement it in every
hall,” Williams said. “I’m not get
ting anything out of it; I just want to
see it in action.
Foster said, “The more they (stu
dents) learn about it, the more recep
tive they’ll be.”
James Vihstadt, a Harper senator,
is trying to get a recycling program
similar to Williams’ started in his
complex.
“We are trying to come up with a
uniform program for the halls to fol
low,” Vihstadt said.
Williams said he wants to get re
cycling started in greck houses as
well.
Williams said he and Vihstadt will
present a proposal to the Residence
Hall Association to start a campuswidc
recycling program.
