    NU-OU matchup considered
for student migration game
From Staff Reports
Student leaders Wednesday will
consider making the Oklahoma-Ne
braska football game the annual stu
dent migration game of the 1990
season.
Association of Students of the
University of Nebraska Sen. Pam
Kohlmeier of the College of Arts &
Sciences has introduced a bi 11 to make
the Nov. 17 matchup in Norman, Okla.,
the migration game.
NU Board of Regents’ policy lets
ASUN pick the migration game.
Joe Selig, Nebraska athletic ticket
manager, said the student migration
game is the only away game in which
tickets are reserved for students.
For other away games, students
must follow the normal procedure by
applying before the June 1 deadline,
he said.
If Kohlmeier’s bill passes, students
would get 20 percent of the tickets
allotted to Nebraska Athletic Ticket
Office for the game. The sale proba
bly would take place in October, Selig
said.
The ticket office gets 3,838 tickets
for the Oklahoma game, meaning 768
would be set aside for students, he
said.
In recent years, Selig said, the ticket
office has sold the tickets on a first
come, first-served basis. The office
separates the tickets into three equal
batches, selling a batch a day for three
days, he said.
He said he didn’t know if the same
system will be used this year. A few
of those who sought tickets for the
migration game against Colorado last
year abused the system, he said.
‘ ‘We had more problems with that
sale than we’ve had in past years,”
Selig said.
Some who tried to buy tickets used
student ID cards belonging to some
one else, he said. When the picture on
the ID didn’t match the buyer, tellers
required a signature to compare to the
one on the ID.
The potential for such abuses ex
ists this year, Selig said, because tick
ets for the NU-OU game will be in
demand.
OU officials had proposed a ticket
price of $28 for the game, but Scilg
said he is not sure if that price has
been finali/cd.

Samson said he was not contacted
about the use of his information be
cause it is published material.
He said he was honored that his
book is the only publication that de
scribcd the procedure and that it was
used in research on the telescope.
“It’s valuable to write knowledge
down,” Samson said.
Scientists will use the telescope,
which was launched into space
Wednesday from the space shuttle
Discovery, to get a better view of the
universe.
“It will help to see the edge,”
Samson said. __

not give “endorsement* ’ to South
African apartheid.
AS UN President Phil Gosch and
NU Foundation President Terry Fair
field said they will meet Wednesday
to discuss the proposal.
Fairfield said he cannot respond to
l
the idea until he has seen the bill, but
said he encourages students to debate
issues of national and international
significance and do what they feel is
correct.
The foundation also will do what it
thinks will best meet its goals and
objectives, Fairfield said.
Gosch said he thinks the bill is a
“realistic proposal in that it’s work
able” and can make an “immediate
difference.
“I think it’s something not only
aimed at what the foundation is here
for... it also addresses the social and
moral responsibility” that the foun
dation must have for South African
investment.
The specifics of the scholarship
program are deliberately vague, he
said, so it can be flexible to the foun
dation’s needs and can be worked out
during the summer.
Second possible measles case investigated
UHC hopes outbreak can be averted
From Staff Reports
Since the first University Ne
braska-Lincoln student was diag
nosed with rubeola measles April
21, only one other possible case
has been reported, a health center
official said.
Dr. Gerald Fleischli, medical
director of the University Health
Center, said the possible case is
being investigated, but he thinks it
is not actually measles.
Fleischli said he hopes last year’s
mass immunization will reduce the
number of measles cases this year
and avert a widespread outbreak.
“We are hoping the big effort
Iasi year is making a big dent this
year,’’ he said.
Fleischli said he asked any stu
dents who had had face-to-face
contact with the infected student to
be re-immunized.
Response to that request, he said,
“could have been better.”
The poorest response, Fleischli
said, was from the larger classes
the infected student was in. Only a
few students from those classes
have been vaccinated again, he said.
Fleischli said the extent of the
measles outbreak should be known
by the end of the week.
Coed

locally and nationally affiliated single
sex organizations, and local and na
tional organizations that admit men
and women. Different organizations
meet different students’ needs, he said.
Having coed houses would increase
gender awareness, but there are other
ways to do that, he said.
Cochran said the school plans to
add four to six more houses in the fall,
but may add as many as eight to 10
new houses if four of the national
fraternities move off campus.
Tcrhune said he doubts any frater
nity would go underground, main
taining its all-male status but losing
official student recognition, because
Middlebury owns all but one of the
houses. The house not owned by the
school is owned by the alumni asso
ciation and sits on land owned by
Middlebury, he said.
It would be financially impracti
cal for a group to purchase a house,
Terhune said.
Not all fraternity members oppose
admitting women.
David Rogers, president of Sigma
Epsilon, said house members were
tentative at first but now “we feel
very good about it.”
Sigma Epsilon, formerly associ
ated with Sigma Phi Epsilon, broke
its ties to the national fraternity in
order to comply with the college’s
rule.
That doesn’t bother Rogers who
said the chapter also broke with the
national fraternity in 1959 after ad
mitting Ron Brown, a black man who
currently is the Democratic national
chairman.
He said they left behind the
“Animal House” image of fraterni
ties as beer-swilling, sexist men.
Several weeks ago, Sigma Epsilon
initiated 16 women, he said, all of
whom have the option of moving into
one of the house’s two open rooms in
the fall, although they are not really
willing to move in yet because of the
condition of the house.
The women make the house a more
diversified and close-knit group,
Rogers said.
Terhune said it is difficult to
compare Middlebury’s greek system
with the systems at larger schools like
the University of Nebraska-Lincoln
because the systems serve different
purposes at the schools.
At Middlebury, for example, where
enrollment is less than 2,000, most of
the students at least know each other
by face, Terhune said. And with 15
percent of the school’s population in
fraternities, a large percentage of social
life takes place in the houses, he said.
At a university such as UNL, where
enrollment exceeds 22,000, fraterni
ties and sororities help form friend
ships on a campus where many stu
dents don’t know each other, he said.
